I've just read the story that
latentfunction wrote for me for
sg_rarepairings and, honestly, if you read nothing else from that challenge, you should go and read this story. It's Teyla/Sora, set before the Atlantis expedition shows up and it's perfect. The culture that
latentfunction has created for Pegasus is fantastic - read it for the flower ceremony with the new babies at the beginning, and the rituals for confirming young people as adults, and for Teyla.
This is such a wonderful exptrapolation of Teyla the child from Teyla the adult: she's growing slowly into the person she's going to become, and she's such a part of the world she's living in, but already starting to draw apart from it a little bit.
There's also some wonderful, subtle nods to the Genii and what Teyla doesn't yet know about them.
Just, honetly, why are you still reading this rec - go read the story!
