Fic Meme!

[cat_77]

Because I have posted so much fic recently... I swear I am editing some for posting, with one almost done and another that I have to wait for a certain date and for the artists to have something and such.

This is totally and completely stolen from glim:

Post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Feel free to ask about anything and I'll tell you the premise or paste you a tidbit for any of these.

Multiple questions encouraged.

Leave it to you to choose the hard ones... *g*

It was Arthur who found Merlin first
This is the one I found on my computer and seriously cannot remember where I was going with it. Love the intro but cannot remember a thing about what was next. This is it in its entirety. Sad, I know.

It was Arthur who found Merlin first, several yards away from their camp and several hours after he had mysteriously disappeared. He lay crumpled in a ball, clothing rumpled and askew, a dagger in one hand and a pool of blood in the other.

Arthur knelt beside him, found glassy blue eyes trying to track his movements as he took the bloodied hand in his own and found a deep gash along the palm. He looked from the injury to the near pristine blade and demanded, “Did you do this to yourself?”

Merlin blinked up at him as if only just now realizing who it was. In a voice not much more than a whisper, he asked, “Arthur?”

Arthur just shook his head at the slight incoherence and confusion. There did not appear to be enough bloodloss to account for it, but he had only found the one wound so far. He tried to shift Merlin from his side to his back, the hand with the weapon flopping uselessly beside him and nearly slicing through Arthur’s trouser leg in the process. “You armed is never a good thing,” he sighed, trying to make light of the situation.

He reached for the dagger and Merlin’s eyes opened wide, finally appearing to focus for the first time as he gasped, “No! Don’t!” Arthur ignored him and tried to place it off to the side anyway, wincing as the sharpened steel somehow found its way to his fingers even though he swore he never touched the blade.



SGA Kid
I kidified them. Er, pretty much anyone who has the gene. Ronon gets to babysit.

“You think the numbers ‘and stuff’ aren’t needed?” Rodney scoffed. “Okay, Fact Man, tell me what your wonder senses tell you about this little situation,” he challenged.

Ronon quirked an eyebrow and pushed himself off the wall he had been leaning against for most of the conversation. “You’re a kid,” he said, pointed at the scowling scientist. “Sheppard’s a kid,” he said, pointing to where their team leader was still kicking idly on the gurney, watching his pants flip back and forth over his oversized boots. “Teyla and me are not,” he said, gesturing between the two adult teammates. “We were all in that room together when it happened. Tells me that whatever that machine did, it probably had something to do with that extra gene thing you have.” He ended with a shrug and slouched back against another wall.

Rodney’s eyes lit up in revelation. “That’s...”

“Either that, or it just doesn’t like people from Earth,” Ronon added with a smirk.


SGA_Merlin
You know full well what this is, missy. The one I originally promised you like four lifetimes ago that died a horrible back burner death so I wrote you a different one with kids instead. Or something. Gods, I am sorry, sweetie!

Rodney made a face. “If they didn’t leave their room, how could they be active?” he asked. True, this Merlin guy sent him all sorts of specs, so maybe they tapped into a terminal and started figuring out the state of the galaxy, and just how screwed they all were.

Even Teyla was smirking at this point, which so was not fair, and John looked ready to answer as soon as he found the words, but it was Ronon who replied, “Sex, McKay. Lots of it.”

McKay raised his eyebrows. In retrospect, he should have expected that, especially with the little displays the night before, but it still did not explain John’s reluctance to just say it, nor did it explain why everyone thought it so amusing. He pushed those thoughts to the side as unimportant and likely to just bog down his thought processes if he dwelled on them for too long, and instead mused, “But don’t you think they’d get hungry after a while? Need to stop and take a Coke Break or something?” He took another sip of his coffee, now down to the dregs, and added, “And do you think they would mind if I asked Wizard Boy a few questions when they did?”

Ooooh. Intriguing. Did Merlin perform some sort of ritual? Is the blade cursed or something? Heh. I'm sure you can continue this sometime when the muse remembers where she left off. Hee.

SGA Kid

I love kiddified characters. It's a challenge to write them essentially as themselves, only... cuter. Hee. (Go, Ronon! He's always been laidback-smart, that one.)

SGA_Merlin

Hee. No worries, hon. If it comes, it comes. I'm just honoured that you did write something. For me. <3<3<3

That's it, Rodney. Focus on what's important. ;)

Thanks for these sneak peaks, Cat. It's always great to have a glimpse of the writing process. ;)
