Hey guys, I've just written a piece of fluff that is not angsty! ('cause we've been seeing a lot of that, think). I hope you can tell me how much in or out of character they are. I dunno, I'm not too thrilled about it, but the idea came to me last night and I wanted to write it up as soon as possible. ![Smile](https://forum.gateworld.net/core/images/smilies/../gw_smilies/smile.gif)
You'd Be Surprised
Sounds like a lot of fun.
Too bad I missed the Spark-a-riffic first three seasons.
I love the leather in BAMSR too.![Wink](https://forum.gateworld.net/core/images/smilies/../gw_smilies/wink.gif)
Aw, very sad! But nice job. Actually, you and Probie have inspired me to draw. *hunts for sketchpad*

Fic rec! One of my favorite Sparky writers wrote me a fic and that fact alone is making me happy and all giddy, but also, the fic is gorgeous and worth yout time and attention:
Amor Fati (Love your fate) by Speckleberry --- John got to take her hand and lead her home.

i got one more sparky scene (With a little carson Thrown in) i thought u guys might like it
I just wrote it right now.
FADE IN:
INT. INFIRMARY - DAY
CLOSE on TEST TUBES and BEAKERS of bubbling liquids, establishing this as The INFIRMARY.
PANNING LEFT we find Sheppard sitting on the edge of a bed, patiently waiting as DR. CARSON BECKETT patches a cut over Sheppard’s eye.
BECKETT
(teasing.)
I’m telling you, Colonel. You’ve got to stop bringin’ ladies home – people will talk.
SHEPPARD
(defensively.)
Oh no, she brought me home. Without my knowledge, I might add. My plan was to gate to the Alpha Site and radio home.
Beckett finishes with the cut, then moves around the bed to a laptop set
up at Sheppard’s bedside. The doctor studies the results on the screen.
BECKETT
Well, disregarding a few minor injuries, you’re just as healthy as when ye left. As far as I’m concerned, you’re cleared for Elizabeth’s briefing.
SHEPPARD
(whining.)
Aw, Doc. Can’t you tell her I’m sick? A nasty alien bug or something?
Beckett’s eyes catch something off camera.
BECKETT
Sorry, Colonel, she already knows.
NEW ANGLE to reveal Weir standing in the doorway, looking unimpressed. Sheppard winces.
SHEPPARD
(making conversation.)
Hey, Elizabeth… What’s on your mind?
Weir remains silent. Her eyes seem calculating, as if trying to determine where to strike first. Sheppard prepares himself for a severe tongue lashing.
Beat.
WEIR
(flatly.)
Wet puppies.
Sheppard’s expression falls into confusion. Weir moves to the foot of the bed
WEIR (CONT’D)
I was going to wait until the meeting to ask this, but since you brought it up… What possessed you to reveal the existence of Atlantis when you were about to blow yourself up to keep it a secret?
Sheppard regains a serious tone.
SHEPPARD
I didn’t tell her anything… At lest, not about where we were.
WEIR
You’re saying she came here all by herself?
SHEPPARD
After the day I had, I’m not sure what I’m saying.
Weir grows silent for a time. Her voice takes on a concerned tone.
WEIR
(slowly.)
That’s actually what I came to talk to you about.
Beckett finishes with the computer. Sensing a moment between Weir and Sheppard, he excuses himself.
BECKETT
If you’ll pardon me, I’ve got other patients to attend to.
(to Weir.)
Elizabeth, he’s all yours.
Weir and Sheppard acknowledge his exit. Weir pauses before she continues.
WEIR
After all that’s happened today, I feel like I have to apologize.
SHEPPARD
Apologize?
WEIR
I was the one who gave the order to raise the shield. If it hadn’t been for… Well… Whatever that was…
Sheppard cuts her off, his tone both soothing and stern.
SHEPPARD
Don’t do this, Elizabeth.
WEIR
Do what?
SHEPPARD
Doubt yourself…
(pouting.)
…It scares me.
Weir smiles wryly. Sheppard continues in a reassuring tone.
SHEPPARD (CONT’D)
…You had no way of knowing it was me and every reason in the world to believe it was the Wraith. I would have made the same decision.
Weir studies him.
WEIR
You can’t know that for sure.
SHEPPARD
Oh yes I can – you aren’t dumb enough to try to gate home without a GDO.
WEIR
(smiles.)
I’m glad you’re back, John.
SHEPPARD
(perking up.)
Beckett mentioned something about a meeting?
WEIR
Yes, Teyla is anxious to speak with you.
Sheppard slides off the bed.
SHEPPARD
I’ll go get my sparring sticks.
WEIR
(confused.)
I don’t think she wants to fight you, John.
SHEPPARD
Oh, I beg to differ.
Weir and Sheppard exit.
I just wrote it right now.
