John Sheppard/Teyla Emmagan Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[Everlovin]

Jeyla! Awesome! Can't wait for the next part!

[Jeyla4ever]

Thank you.

I rushed through that and I hate myself for it because you guys have done such a FANTASTIC job. But if I wanted it out, it had to be this. I'll be very busy the next couple of days and into next week. I'd figure once we have all the pieces maybe someone can correct it and add to it and all that before we post the final piece in fanfic and Beya.

That's just a suggestion of course.

[Everlovin]

Your part was awesome! I rushed through my little four paragraphs.

Out of curiousity, there are what, 2 or 3 more people to go on the fic? Do you (the plural you that is) think we might have to go around again? Just so I know if I need to keep my writing mojo going.

[Jeyla4ever]

Oh, yes...that was my thought. But I could be wrong. I don't think this is anywhere near the end. At least I didn't write my part for it to be in any way near its end.

There's more to tell here. So, yes. I'd say get ready.

But Lea/Sci is really in charge. I don't think I've ever participated in one of these, so I guess I'm jumping the gun here, but that's what I've been thinking all along that we keep going till we are all in agreement that we are near the end.

Lea, does that sound right?

Honestly, I"m not sure whose next and how many others are there. Let me see what I can find.

[Jeyla4ever]

Okay, this is what I found.

Not sure though if Yappi will be able to do her part with her current condition. I'd say no. But let's wait to see what Lea says. If that's the case, your up, baby!

[Everlovin]

Aaaaah! *runs screaming* *deep breaths* I can do this. I can do this.

Sci! Please save me! If I am next, please be patient. I'm not used to writing with a plot.

I can do this. I can do this.

[Jeyla4ever]

You can so do this, chica!!!!

You were AWESOME with that first part!! YOU ROCKED!

[scifan]

Awesome addition Jeyla and I don't feel rushed at all. This is suppose to be fun... remember.
I'll send all the parts to Jess(Yappi) and have her decide before we continue.

Jeyla: I don't see a problem of posting this in Beya when all said and done. And I would love to see this go for another round... or so.

Spoiler:

Sorry about not getting the chance to email you back. I would've totally understood if you could've had joined... under the circumstance.

Thanks Lythisrose!!!!!!

[Jeyla4ever]

Thank you!

That's a great idea. Maybe this will take her mind of things, who knows.

[Princess Awinita]

Amazing Job camy reading the piece and listening to Naturally at the same time made it sound and feel more liek a music video O.o and MORE FUN

[SGAFirenity]

Since I haven't been on here in like FOREVER. What exactly is this Round Robin, you guys keep talking about?

[Everlovin]

Give me a sec to link you up with all the parts.

[Everlovin]

Part one!

Ok, here's what I've got. . .

“I really don’t give a damn what you have to say. I have it on the highest authority it is neither Goa’uld nor Ancient technology. This was found among the wreckage found over Nevada, Arizona and California after the Wraith tried to invade Earth.” Mr Parker turned away from the conference call with fellow Trust members around the world. The city below was dark. Pulsing with dark hidden agendas. A perfect place to both blend in and rise above the masses.

“I have people tracking her. Find the woman and bring her back to the lab. We must find out the purpose of this technology. Only she can activate what we’ve obtained. No not fail in this, Parker. Your position in the Trust is not all that secure.” Mr Wayne’s clipped voice issued the edict and was suddenly absent.

John was having a perfect day. Even if it included shopping. It included shopping with Teyla in San Francisco’s Chinatown. They wandered from shop to shop. Bought various things that caught her eye. Cloth for her people - should they ever get back to Pegasus, lanterns for her quarters on Atlantis, toys for Torren, mock weapons for Ronon. Somehow through it all, John didn’t mind being a pack mule and bank account. Seeing Teyla’s face glowing with happiness was worth anything.

It wasn’t until well into the afternoon that John’s instincts kicked in. Someone was following them. John cursed himself roundly. He didn’t know how long they’d been followed; he didn’t know if they were following him or Teyla; he didn’t want Teyla’s day ruined.

[Everlovin]

Part two!

Okay, here's what I got. Hope it's okay.

****

His cold, gray eyes remained on the target as he traveled down the winding market streets. Dressed in stone washed jeans, a dark pin-striped shirt, and a charcoal black Armani blazer, Adams had hoped to go unnoticed as he tailed his target. That was until they had wandered into Chinatown. Now he felt like a giraffe let loose in the penguin exhibit. Things were not going according to plan. Adams kept moving, rudely bumping into anyone in his path as he slipped his hand into the silk-lined pocket of his blazer to retrieve his smartphone.

“Let’s find out who your escort is, my dear,” he whispered to himself, scanning through the SGC’s dossier on his phone. Finally, he stumbled upon a match. Fear gripped his stomach into a knot as Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard’s profile appeared on screen.

“Mr. Parker,” Adams said in a low voice. “We have a problem.”

Static crackled in his ear, signaling his ear piece had come to life.

“See to it that it’s taken care of, if you value your life,” Parker hissed.

****

John’s eyes narrowed with concern as he glanced behind them once more, confirming his suspicions. They were definitely being followed. The man stood out like a sore thumb since they had wandered into Chinatown. He shook his head wondering why they couldn’t have just one day together.

“You don’t think Rodney would like it?” Teyla asked curiously as she held up a strange dragon-like sculpture.

John turned back to her and couldn’t help but to smile upon seeing her expression. She was so close to him that he could smell the gentle, yet sweet fragrance of the soap she used, still lingering on her skin. He closed his eyes savoring the moment. If only that man hadn’t been following them…

John?” Teyla asked quietly, concern etched on her face.

“I’m not buying gifts for McKay,” he responded, his attention elsewhere.

Teyla watched him for a moment before adding, “Why do you think that man has been following us for the last couple of hours?”

John sighed heavily as he looked into her eyes. “I don’t know, but I got an idea.”

Part three!

June 2010- RR

Spoiler:

Part 1: Everlovin , Part 2: Alexandria7

******

John gives Teyla some of the bags he is carrying and she looks at him with confusion in her eyes.

“Trust me,” He simply replies, but with a serious expression on his face.

He quickly grabs her by her hand and leads her down one of the allies.

“Let’s see if we can lose this guy,” John says as they maneuver through the crowd of people.

Adams begins his pursuit as soon as he notices they are no longer in his sight. He is furious with himself for losing them. Being threatened by Parker distracted him, but it’s not a good enough excuse. He has to find them… her, before Parker’s other operatives updates him about the situation.

John looks back and almost relaxes, thinking he lost their shadow, but as they are about to round the corner onto one of the streets, Adams and John see each other.

“Crap!” John yells. “He spotted us?”

“Perhaps we should find our vehicle and return…..” she catches herself before she says Atlantis’ name. “…home.”

“Sounds like a plan to me… if only I can remember where we parked,” John replies.

“I believe it is in this direction,” she says as he point to the direction she thinks the car is.

“Adams!” an angry voice buzzes in the pursuer’s ear.

“Yes, sir,” Adams replies. He can tell by the tone in Parker’s voice that he now knows of the situation.

“Stop your pursuit and head back to headquarters,” Parker says sternly. “You’re position has been compromised and I have other men handling it right now.”

“Yes, sir,” Adams says with a soft, but frustrating sigh.

As John and Teyla near the area they left the car, the crowd of people around them begins to become denser. It is difficult for them to get through.

Teyla starts to feel her hand slip away from John’s, “John!”

“Hold on, Teyla. We’re almost out of here.” He tries to hold to her hand tighter, but as he does… her fingertips pull away.

He swings around to see her, but in that very brief moment she has already vanish.




Hope it’s ok.
