Hey to everyone who took the time to read all this (nice of ya). This is the first active fangroup-sort-of-thingy I've ever participated in, so I wanna get it right.
Which is not to say I'm a complete newbie to the world of fanfic. In fact, I'm something of a Professional Lurker. I first found fanfic back in...ohh...1999 or thereabouts. It was "The Sentinel", and I can't really remember how it happened, other than I was bored at work and the SciFi channel had just run a Sentinel marathon. I hit the Squidge.org Archive and never looked back.
The thing was, by then the Sentinel had been cancelled, so that active, what comes next, *live* aspect of it was already gone. I was essentially just looting a fresh graveyard (...lovely imagery there, sorry). I played there for quite a while, throughly amusing myself, discovered slash for the first time, (whoo,...lots of blushes, first when I realized what it meant, more when I realized I LIKED it...) and generally had myself a whale of a good time.
And thus it went for several happy, happy years. All the while, Stargate was known to me, but for some reason, it fell off my radar after the first 2-3 seasons. Not really quite sure why, but it seemed to pale for me after a time. So when Atlantis first appeared, I noted it, said "Eh," and gave it no more thought until a fateful day of channel-surfing brought me "Hide and Seek".
In-VUL-narable... :) It was love at first snark. Which it how I come to be here. I've been greedily stuffing myself with every tidbit of SGA (read Rodney) goodness that I could lay my eyes on. And it has been good. But then, a little bit ago, something new happened... :)
A tiny, shivering, half-starved scrap of "plot-gerbil" tentatively looked up at me, and all of a sudden, I realized I've done nothing for *YEARS* but consume everyone else's efforts, taken all their hard work, everything they had to give, and never *once* had I thought to give back to this community that has kept me so entertained, engrossed and occasionally overly-emotional in all this time.
Well, NO MORE! I logged on, set me up a profile, and bought me a big net to go chase down some serious plot bunnies of my very own. How good my hunting skills are remains to be seen, but the effort is finally being put forth to give, maybe just a little, back to all of you who have meant so much to me for so long.
Wish me Happy Hunting!
...Much, much later...
huffhuff...GASP...huffhuff
Whoo! Them lil'buggers are quick!
I think I finally got one, but he's on the scrawny side...Let's see if I can make anything of him.
Summary: Trinity Tag: Rodney deals with the fall out from the Arcturus Project fiasco.

Completed?!? "This story is completed"?! Uh-UH!
Nope. I simply do not accept that. This story only just got *started*...

Author's Response: LOL- wow. I've never had someone threaten to turn blue unless we continue writing Don't worry, this series is far from completed. The wrong button got pushed, that's all Lots more to come. Thanks for the threat ;-) we'll continue, wouldn't want you to turn strange shades after all.

Summary: How much pressure can you take? How much are you made of until the fire's all gone and you're just burnt out?
Well, apparently, all you have to do is blow up a solar system.

AAGGGHH!
More! Need more NOW!
blinkblink...*ahem* (blushes)
Ah, yes, well, what I really meant to say was, "Damn fine job!"
I am seriously in love with this fic and I'm going to be on pins and needles, Pins and Needles, do ya hear?!? Til this one is finished.
Gah! I'm so in love with this I can't keep a coherent thought in my head. Oh well, this will have to do.
Oh! And Thanky!
Author's Response: well, i suppose i could be bought, but i didn't plan on posting another part till next week. still, i'm glad you like what i wrote so far. hope you'll love the other parts as well. :)
Summary: McKay is eager to study new technology that offers a chance of preserving memories of the culled, but Atlantis's new trading partners want something in return.
Updated: 23 Jun 2006; Published: 30 Dec 2005
Oh wow! Fantastic! But a whole *week* til the next bit!? Yipe! It'll be painful, but *definitely* worth the wait!
Author's Response: More like half a week, really, I promise. Thanks for reading!
Summary: John Sheppard is determined to bring to ruin the villainous McKay family. But young (ok, youngish) Rodney interferes with his plans.
Okay, so this is what comes of reading the Harlequin SGA website which triggers memories of reading a thousand Regency/Historical novels as an impressionable youngster (**eek**, no wonder I'm twisted). The result is this complete and utter
cliche **heh**.
I make no guarantees as to the accuracy of any of the historical/british terms and settings depicted in this story. They are from my fuzzy memory of romance novels. Nuff said.

*double-hand claps*
Yay! An update! Whoohoo!
I am throughly enjoying this story; it's fun, it's engaging, it just sparks with potential, love it, love it, love it!
Author's Response: Thank you :) I'm very glad you're enjoying it. I hope you think it continues to live up to its potential.
Chapter 1: 1 - Rodney meets John Sheppard
I *love* this series! Made my day to see an update! and the possiblility of another new chapter on the way! Whoopie! Adored Rodney just about drunk on all the books, perfect. I really have been enjoying your characterizations. Take all the time you need if you're going to grace us with stuff like this. *g*
Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm really glad you're enjoying it so far and I hope I can keep entertaining people. I'm glad you liked the Rodney high on books part.
Chapter 8: 8 - An excursion
*sigh*
I've been following this one for ages, and loved every minute of it!
Thank you so much for the fantastic ride. Even if I'm sad to see it end, Damn was it ever satisfying!
Thanks again!
Author's Response: I'm glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate them :)
Summary: Atlantis comes to love Rodney, and so does Sheppard: a romantic shmoop fest.
Updated: 09 Mar 2006; Published: 09 Mar 2006
Oh, beautiful.
Loved so much of this it's hard to point to just one piece, but I think this, this has to be the best phrase ever:
--John loved to watch Rodney in action. It was better than a good football game. Defense, offense, penalties, blitzes, blocking, punting, personal fouls--Rodney working on a problem had all of that and more.--
Perfect. Just perfect. And pure Rodney. Lovely!
Summary: Rodney has holes in his memory from the Wraith enzyme. Written for cathexys.

Reviewing this is hard. I didn't like it so much as..as...lived it?
It has put me in the weirdest damn head-space and..and I think I like it here.
But I can't say why. *g*
Author's Response: Man, reviewing is hard, you're right. I never know what to say either.

Oh, Wicked. Evil and Wicked. Evil, *Naughty* and Wicked. When will the next bit be up? *g*
Author's Response: Yes I am a very naughty and sick person. Glad you ar liking it. The next bit will be up whenever this perpetual headahce goes away. I have a sneaking suspicion that isn't gonna happen until I sleep for a whole night, but while I'm at it I can entertain myself and be productive by imagining up the next chapter. It might take me a little bit, though. I want chapter three to be more... detailed.

Updated: 16 Mar 2006; Published: 16 Mar 2006
*brays* Ohmygod! Ohmygod! That was hilarious! Did you have 'Those Icons' in mind when you wrote this?
I have to say though, Rodney-as-Klingon is absolutely *perfect*! *wipes a tear* Lovely, just lovely!
Author's Response: Icons? what icons?? enquiring minds want to know...
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Summary: "You are NOT the person you pretend to be, Carson Beckett!"
This story was written for a kinkathon so it's kinky *g*. Contains light bondage, mild spanking etc - all very loving and consensual.

Yes to the brain-mushing properties of this!**Points down at TLI's review**
Extremely scorchingly hot, and yet, very believable at the same time. I'm not always one for D/s stories, they need a deft hand, but this? Perfect.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm delighted you enjoyed it :-)
