Fannish Dare!

[raisintorte]

It's time for another round truth or dare! Last time it was general, this time I'm going to limit it to fandom related dares.

We got fifteen CRAZY stories last time, and I think fun was had by all. (Actually, it's probably more than 15 - I think I missed a few that were posted at the end.)

General Rules:
- Anyone can participate! Any fandom, any pairing, any rating! Any medium of fannish works!
- Be nice. No fandom, pairing, character, or people bashing.

How to Play
- If you want people to participate leave a comment to this post! (if you want to include your fandoms in the comment, go for it, but you are under no obligation)
- Anyone can respond to your comment with a dare.
- You are under no obligation to complete any dare. However, the whole point of the game is to write crazy things and try and get other people to write them for you.
- You do not have to offer yourself up to be dared to dare others.

Responding
- Please respond directly to the dare comment. Label the comment subject line with fandom, pairing (or character), and rating for ease of reading.

Example:
Last time I dared wojelah to write Ten/Sheppard (DW/SGA) and she did!

Invite your friends - the more the merrier! There is no time limit on this, it will go on as long as people are still playing.

Not a problem - would you rather just have a different prompt altogether? Dare should not be a serious enough undertaking to warrant the backburner. :)

Different prompt would be acceptable :)

Hee. Duly withdrawn. I would love Teyla and Cadman (/ optional) or Teyla and Vala (ditto)

"The last time I saw this many women in a room together was my cousin's bridal shower," Laura remarked in Teyla's ear as they wandered across the polished floor of the gathering hall, smiling and nodding at the myriad women who eyed them as they walked by. "And that went pear-shaped when someone discovered the bride's sister was having an affair with her cousin's husband. Please tell me I'm not the only one feeling like a little dove in a nest of hawks."

Teyla acknowledged a graceful woman in sleek cream silk and was glad she had encouraged the Lantean women to 'dress up' for this convocation. "I have been here several times."

The Edanirans were an ancient culture that had changed little in the many generations since they had located to this planet, far-flung from the main corridors of Wraith traffic.

"With your people?"

"It was long ago, and I was very young when Charin first brought me here. And I felt as you do now - as though they were watching me." And they were watching the Lanteans. It was the way of the Edanirans to treat with a culture only after ascertaining the individuals of that culture and their personal behaviours.

Teyla saw nothing wrong with this. A true trade - of thoughts and not merely of things - was only accomplished through immersion in one culture or another. And while the Lantean party would only be present on this planet for two days, the Edanirans would take full opportunity to observe their guests.

Laura brushed a wisp of blonde hair from her eyes. "Well, they're definitely watching us. And not surreptitiously either." She scowled. "I hate girl politics. I mean, it's all very well for you and Dr. Weir, but I went into the military for a reason - point, shoot, kick ass, blow things up, go home and hopefully get a commendation."

"Then you must consider this an expansion of your experiences," Teyla said, gently guiding Laura towards a small knot of women. "Or die in the attempt," she said with wry humour.

"God, Teyla. Do you have to be so cheerful?"

An Expansion Of Experience, Teyla & Laura

This is so them - Teyla comfortable, but seeing the experience (good and bad) for what it is; Cadman just wishing she were back in her BDUs, blowing something up. Fantastic!

I -love- this. Particularly Laura's opening crack and Teyla's closing snark. How awesome that Cadman has to go to another galaxy to learn how to play with the girls.
