Polite Society (Stargate Atlantis)
Sep. 18th, 2006 03:25 pmTITLE: 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!"
