Broken Paradigms (Stargate Atlantis)

TITLE: Broken Paradigms
FANDOM: Stargate Atlantis
LENGTH/RAITING: 100 words, PG
WARNINGS/SPOILERS: None
SUMMARY: There are some things the Tauri will have to unlearn...


At first she didn't understand why 'beaten by a girl' was supposed to insult. When she asked they defended the phrase in embarrassed sidesteps, insisting that 'girls' were weaker, more fragile, meant to be protected from battle, not embraced by it. It confused her, yet females in their military seemed content to draw the same distinctions, identifying themselves as somehow superior to the norm. Elizabeth explained, as best she could, why anyone would seek the luxury of uselessness, but their assumption most females were unsuited, uninterested, in combat was frightening.

What kind of people knowingly threw half their weaponry away?

Polite Society (Stargate Atlantis)

TITLE: Polite Society
FANDOM: Stargate Atlantis
LENGTH/RATING: 100 words, PG
PAIRING/WARNINGS: None
SUMMARY: Sometimes learning the rules is easier than others.


Teyla was oddly glad for Rodney presence, his startled yelps and uncensored reactions to her social missteps were easily interpreted.

"Ack! Clothes! Go put on clothes!" accompanied by flustered hand-waving was far easier to understand than John's averted gaze and embarrassed flushing, or Elizabeth attempted tactful explanation of why swimming required clothing. By discrete testing she slowly learned the customs of her hosts, using Rodney for rough approximation and the others as refining tools.

She would have shared this knowledge with Ronon, but the runner seemed to enjoy trampling on the Atlantian's sense of proprietary.

Besides Rodney was amusing.

"CLOTHES!"
