SGA Saturday

With everyone posting challenges and such for the 3weeks4dreamwidth festivities, we'd like to join in!  To do so, we're running a prompt drop and fill fest from now until mid May. Basically how the CommentFic community works, but only for Stargate Atlantis (and crossovers, as long as SGA is the primary focus, either in a multi-fandom crossover OR an AU of some kind).

If you're not familiar with prompt drop and fill fest, it's where you leave a fandom - which will of course be SGA - plus a pairing or characters or "ANY", and then a prompt of some kind.  Feel free to leave as many prompts as you want as comments to this post, and then you or someone else can come in behind you and fill that prompt.

The fest will go from today until May 15th, 2026. All prompts and prompt fills should be within this post (unless you end up filling a prompt for this month's prompts and want to post it afterward as an official fill for that challenge as well!).

Sound good? Let's go!

So it's time to wrap up our adventures in Reading and/or History, and we've had a couple of submissions - so thank you to the wonderfully creative people who submitted works!

brumeier  gave us The Past Reconfigured
melagan  gave us Printed on Your Skin
sgatazmy  gave us Heard You Kissed

If you're working on something around "reading" and/or "history", then you're in luck 'cause even though the challenge is ending, I know a guy who'll help you out. Just ping me and I'm sure he'll let you on the list. Otherwise, wrap up what you're writing and submit it by Sunday evening to get officially counted in the festivities. Otherwise, it'll have to wait for another prompt or for amnesty at the end of the year.

A new prompt coming soon!

Well, we all knew February into March was going to be busy what with all the Valentines Day themed events going on. So far we've only had one entry for the last prompt of "dinner" and/or "date":

If you're working on a fic for these prompts, you've got until tomorrow night, Sunday March 8th, to be included in the roundup (or an extra few days if you let me know). Otherwise it'll have to come under another prompt or wait for amnesty this December.

New prompt coming soon!

We had some wonderful fills for our "tea" and/or "cup" prompts!

brumeier  gave us Steeped in Remembrance
goddess47  gave us Working on a Vague Idea
melagan  gave us Uncharted Road

A new prompt is coming up soon. Meanwhile, don't forget that this comm will be busy hosting our usual prompts, but also the Romancing SGA Fest 2026, while companion Romancing McShep Fest 2026 and Romancing SG-1 Fest 2026 will be held in their respective communities.

So whatever you do - consider the prompts and fests you want to undertake, and run with it! And if you're still working on a fill for "tea" and/or "cup", you have until Sunday evening to post it - or just ping me and I'll grant you a short extension to get things wrapped up.

New prompt coming soon (but groceries first!)

Sometimes trying to come up with prompts is definitely a challenge in and of itself.  But this morning, all I got on the brain is my cup of tea to start my day.  So why not try and make a thing of it, huh?

Coffee is what makes Atlantis run, but what happens when they run out of coffee?  Is Tea something that you think Rodney McKay would drink? I mean, if he's out of coffee and wanted some sort of caffeinated boost in the morning, tea is pretty much it.  They wouldn't have energy drinks out in Pegasus.  And cup?  Well, cup can mean so many different things.  Sure, you can write an AU where single dad Caldwell is trying to make a cake for his birthday kiddo and needs to borrow a cup of sugar from their prickly neighbor, Ambassador Weir.  Or you could go the other way around.  John Sheppard watches as Rodney goes to grab a cup to get something to drink only to accidentally break it - so John learns ceramics from the Athosians and makes Rodney a new cup.  Or maybe it's a stolen moment together where Carson cups Cadman's cheek before kissing her - or Lorne drinks a cup of liquid courage before he asks Parrish out on a date.

For the next FIVE weeks, you've got "cup" and/or "tea" to try and put something together for the prompt.

And...GO!
