An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
So I wrote a little McWeir to say thank you to @hewwwwkayyyy for all of the work they put into making the SGA fandom a better place. Thanks for all the GIFs, the watch parties, the organization, and the support, and for happily listening to us all bang on about McShep all the time.
This was a joy to write - I've wanted to explore Rodney and Elizabeth's relationship during Season 1 for ages, and I'm very happy with how this turned out.
Words: 3,452
Rating: M
Pairing: Rodney McKay/Elizabeth Weir
Summary: Rodney’s nothing like Simon or the other men she dated before. DC, London, Beirut, they were all the same, well-educated, well-spoken, opinionated enough to challenge her, charming enough to win her back.
Instead, Rodney reminds her of the boys she dated in high school. Nerds and geeks - the president of the AV club, a member of the chess team, her debate partner. Smart, maybe too smart, and a little unpolished.
Do you still write mcweir? And do you have recs? (Yours or other writers?) Thanks!
I haven't written any in an age sadly. The closest I got was I did a McKay/Shep/Weir moodboard and ficlet last Nov (how has it been a nearly a whole year already!). I keep thinking about making some more SGA moodboards and maybe doing some drabbles to go with them. I'd like to write some longer McWeir again too (I have several WIPs, might try to rewrite/finish one for wipbigbang next year) but I think I'll need to do a rewatch to get back into it because I don't remember canon well and I probably don't have the character voices anymore. As for recs...I wrote a fair bit in my day - most is on ffnet under purpleyin and I'm slowly moving it to ao3 under the same penname - but my writing has improved a lot since then so I don't know if I would recommend it or not. People liked it at the time certainly, despite my habit of starting and not finishing WIPs. I also did a lot of one-shots and episode tags though. It's been an age since I read any but from memory and a browse of old favourites on ffnet: MurdocsAngel wrote if not the first then one of the first McWeir fics and did quite fluffy/fun/sometimes cracky fics; Fanwoman did very thoughtful pieces; others I remember enjoying fics for, Hypercaz, fififolle, dahan, MillionMoments, aaobuttons, Porthos1013, LittleKnux2008, Hananian. I don't know many people who are still active but Iona sg occasionally posts new SGA fics including some McWeir.
Stargate moodboards: McWeir (Mckay/Weir) - scrabble ILY
SGA vid - Beyond (S1 - Weir + minor McKay/Weir)
Title: Beyond Vidder: Purpleyin Summary: A Weir vid showing the troubles she has faced in the first season and how she battles through all of them. Length: 3:53 minutes Song: “Extreme Ways” by Moby Warnings: Angsty. Also canonical violence? This is one of my earlier vids from 2005. I wouldn't say it's a great vid but I was pleased with it and happy with my progress as a vidder. It only uses footage from S1 so it's a little limited but I hope still an enjoyable vid for Elizabeth. Spoilers: All of S1 Stargate Atlantis

I was tagged by @galaxy-creationz - thanks. :) It’s a fun distraction from work for a bit.
rules: tag 9 ppl you want to get to know better (I probably won’t manage 9 but we’ll see)
top 3 ships:
Like, ever? Multishipper me weeps at having to choose just 3. Anyhow, in no particular order:
1. BBC Sherlock - Sherlock/Molly - I remember when it was a teeny tiny ship that people looked at you kinda sideways for shipping and some probably still do. This ship was the reason I joined tumblr back in 2012, so in a way it’s kinda responsible for everything I did here.
2. Stargate Atlantis - McWeir (Rodney/Elizabeth) - this definitely wasn’t a popular ship but we had a nice band of chill shippers for it. I ran a fic archive and forums for it, which was McWeir.com once upon a time. Even had pin buttons made up using a modified McDonald’s logo for some cons. I did speak to Ao3 about porting the old code/db for the fic archive but I am behind on some paperwork I need to do to get that going...
3. Fringe - Alt!Olivia Dunham/Alt!Lincoln Lee - I like any combination of Liv and Lincoln (and plenty of OT3′s with them in too), but the thought of the redverse version of them consistently made me 😍 or 😭. Liv is BAMF with a soft underside and Lee is trying to play it cool but has the biggest case of heart eyes/pining going on. I will never be over them. Case in point, I wrote a 12k fic about them years after the fandom died, which got like 3 readers total - but it was worth it.
last movie:
*goes to consult my list of things watched* “Sierra Burgess Is A Loser,” for the 2nd time. And this time it spawned a fic idea for a followup (Sierra Burgess is Bi and Polyam), that I may never write because the fandom is probably non-existent and I have too many other plot bunnies. But Veronica is possibly bi based on canon.
currently reading:
Technically at least 3 books. I vaguely started the first Witcher book but didn’t get far. Still not finished a witchy anthology book from last Halloween because the last few stories I read I was indifferent to. Also on one of the True Blood books near the middle of the series, but can’t remember which since it’s in a big omnibus version.
food im craving:
Chocolate but we have none in the house. Especially that chocolate sauce that you put on icecream and it freezes solid, mmm.
