I have a few short John/Teyal fics in my LJ...my sadly neglected LJ. All of the entries and stories come up on the only page. :-) I do plan to add more fics in all the fandoms I've written in over the years. But most are novellas/short novels and will take a loooonnngg time to upload so I'm procrastinating. LOL.
I do plan to consolidate all the JT icons/banners/fics I've done there.
Right now, there's my first JT wallpaper and some of the short stories I've done for JT.

Sorry, this is from last week. I only now got a chance to read responses to my stuff.
Ah, thank you. see, that's why I never saw S/T before. i haven't watched much of season one at all. The only ones I've really seen are Letters From Pegasus, and Before I sleep, (specifically for my sci-fi class). anyway, while I didn't even realize that "Letters" could be shippy, i get what you guys are saying totally. every relationship has fights, especially the romantic kind. it's called passion! if I watch this ep. again, i'll be sure to look out for it with some "shipper glasses."Originally posted by WitchBlade007Anything to get us talking about these two is welcomed...
So for the scenes, that are best Sheppard and Teyla, As BP and Ceekay said, this is really all in the eye of the beholder.
And the scene that got most of us hooked...
'Rising'- The Cave Scene, when Sheppard puts on the necklace for Teyla that's really a favorite of ours.
It's what most of us saw and thought they were great together.
'Hide and Seek'- The amused smile on Teyla's face while Sheppard is telling the Athosian kids the story, there's also the scene right after where he follows her and asks her not to tell Mckay what he said about football being a man's sport. He didn't have to do that, because she didn't really know what that was. So we see it as him trying to get to know her.
'38-Minutes'- There's a scene when they're running up the hill, he reaches back and holds her hand to help her up. We also see her concern for him, when he's in pain.
'Suspicion'- Is one of our absolute favorites, We see right from the beginning that he trusts Teyla, when they're at the conference and he says 'she should be here, since she's part of the team'. It's also the first time Bates says something about Sheppard 'personal feelings' for Teyla maybe clouding his judgement, to which Shepaprd never says anything, only get's in Bates face. In one instance he outright tells him he's dismissed. Also when they wouldn't open the gate to let Teyla back through he looks very ticked off and yells 'Open the damn gate'...Really through
'Home'- This is a confusing episode since it's really all in their minds, there's been theories galore for why Teyla shared Sheppards' world, and as shipper we naturally see it in the shippy sense. But we just find it important that she didn't share anyone else's world but Sheppard's.
'Hot Zone'- As BP, said in the Companion Book, it says that the stick fighting scene was placed in there for sexual tension. And it can be viewed that way, since they had these slight/flirtatious smiles on their faces.
'Letters From Pegasus'- Another great episode, we see Sheppard and Teyla actually have a conflict, and the all important question from sheppard 'what more do you want from me?'...and teyla's 'too much i fear'...the argument just made some of us think of a married couple. There was so much emotion/tension in that scene. Also later after Sheppard leaves the puddle jumper, leaving behind a very worried looking Teyla, we see the biggest smile on Teyla's face. He also caves, and agrees to wait after she says she'll stay and search in the day.
'The Gift'- His concern shows by the look on his face, when she says she hasn't been sleeping well. Also when she disappears through the mountain's wall into the wraith ship, and Sheppard yells 'Teyla!'
'Siege 1'- Bates makes another appearance, (he's so good for our ship.. )....Again he voices his concern about Sheppard's 'personal feeling', and again Sheppard doesn't say anything about it to him.
There are more moments but those are the ones I can remember.
All from season 1. I'm sure i'll see that sexual tension that i failed to see the first time!
anyway, excellent shipper summery of season one. I had no idea that there was sooo much! But i have a question . . . is there this much in season two? because i feel like i'm totally dense when it comes to ship otherwise. I did watch "Conversion," which, yeah, pretty much is a shipper episode, through and through. (however which ship, apparently, depends on who you ask!
) whistler claimed that one as a S/W episode, and you guys say it's S/T. Honestly, I see both. I haven't seen The Long Goodbye yet, but apparently the same can be said in that episode too.
onto the next one:
Ceekay, great list! unfortunately, AGAIN, i haven't seen most of those episodes! ahh!! but, like I already said, I saw Conversion. Saw the kiss. NIIIICCCEEEE! i wonder how many shipper fans died while watching that kiss! 'cause damn. the hormone level in that room was off the charts! *fans self to cool off*We look at what relatively few moments we get and interpret them how we will. That's the way I see it, anyway – before I finally declared an Atlantis 'ship, I leaned a bit toward Shep/Weir for a while (but shh, don't tell), and my "conversion" (pun intended ) is what gave me this perspective. It's all in what you choose to see. I believe this has been referred to as "shipper glasses" (or was it goggles?).
And then, of course, we write J/T fan fiction. I've read some really good stuff here (VB, Ritter, Witchy, I think AG has written some... sorry if I forgot anyone), and written a couple myself. We also did a Round Robin fic a while back that was tons of fun, and those of us who are talented in the picture deparment (not me) sometimes do picfics (strings of pictures with captions that make a story – these can be surprisingly long!).
So we read stuff into brief scenes (or not-so-brief scenes – have you seen "Rising" yet? There's some really good shippy moments in there), write some of our own, and bask in the romance that is John and Teyla.
Off the top of my head, here's a list of eps with really good, fairly obvious shippy moments (if anyone has any more, feel free to add on):
"Rising" (pilot)
"Thirty Eight Minutes"
"Suspicion"
"Hot Zone" (thanks, BP)
"Home"
"The Gift," IIRC
"Conversion" (not the very beginning – if you haven't seen it, you'll know what I'm talking about when you do)
"The Long Goodbye"
"Michael"
These are the ones I remember specific scenes from, but if you go back and read through the thread, you'll find lots of in-depth discussion on shippy moments in episodes. Look especially for Black Panther's posts – she catches just about everything.
moving on, didn't see the long goodbye. however, i did see "Michael." i LIKED that episode a lot. but clue in the clueless person. what was shippy about that episode between sheppard and . . . anyone, for that matter? the only shippy stuff i saw there was between teyla and ronon(or :cough:Michael:cough.

*tackles Terry with a running leap* It's sooooo good to see you again!
As far as all of this shippy stuff goes, it really is all open to interpretation. You see what you want to see, and any shipper worth their squees can manipulate an ep to make it seem like the greatest romantic plot of all time. I think that every thread is able to do that on a routine basis. Here we're prone to everything S/T, but everything that we see is just as quickly and easily interpreted as support for another pairing. The best thing of all is to be a multi-shipper (like your's truly!) and see about a half-dozen ships in any given episode. As soon as one cute moment ends the next begins -- loads of fun. Like in "Michael", I saw Beckett/Weir, Weir/Ronon, Sheppard/Teyla, Sheppard/Weir, and Teyla/Ronon. Very, very disturbing, I know.
"But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace in impotence." ~In memory of Whistler84...loved and missed but never, never forgotten. Safe journey, my dear friend. Love you.

yeah, you know what I'm noticing more and more. this show is so chalk full of ship! i mean, dear god, it's all over the place, isn't it? I feel sorta confused about which ship to root for!Originally posted by SnoggingPicard*tackles Terry with a running leap* It's sooooo good to see you again!

Thanks SP, and the fic will be dark on the scale of having to be M rated. I'm serious, I didn't think I could write that and... uhhh... it's not your normal torture fic either, I've added my own twists to it. Just waiting on the Beta.Originally posted by SnoggingPicard
Terry... Season 2 was very subtle and can be interpretted either way, like you said about Conversion and The Long Goodbye. It all depends on which set of shipper glasses you're wearing. Of course we recommend Shepmagen shipper glasses, I think AG has some for you.
But hold it for a second, did you say you've got a SCIFI CLASS!!! THAT WOULD BE SO COOL!!!Comment

Seriously, it's much more fun to enjoy them all. Don't feel the need to "settle" with a ship if you don't want to -- little sister is completely A-OK with being a multi-shipper and has no preferred leanings at all. I think her siggie listed about twenty ships at one point.Originally posted by emotionallydisturbed But like Ritter said, the Shepmagen Shipper Glasses are very, very comfortable once you break them in.

Ah! I'm so glad you asked! I love Ronon, but couldn't for the life of me match him up with anyone in the show- I know there are a lot of Ronon/Weir folks out there, but I couldn't see that past a one night stand. They're just too different. And putting him with Teyla was not even an issue!Originally posted by Camy
Soooooo, I created my own character for him to be with and her name is Dr. Gwen Madison who works on the medical team with Carson. She's English and hasn't had much luck with men because she's so smart and has studdied all her life to be a doctor. (ie no life!)
I've written one story for them called The First Time and it's definitely a smut a thon- (these two start out with a bang!) and I'm working on the sequel now. I imagine her as looking and sounding like the lovely Kate Beckinsale- that's who you see in the pic and trust me she's perfect for Ronon! If you're interested just click the link to my site and look uner the Ronon/Gwen category. She may also make an appearence in Ties That Bind toward the end, if I can work it in right.
Thanks for asking!Comment

LOL SP, they are... I think mine are blue... but I need to order new lenses from AG.Comment

Nicely said Sanssong, when in doubt, create a ship and have at it, though I am terrible at OC ship, I know CKO's really good at it. She's a multi-shipper.Comment
