Stolen from idyll:

Give me a character (or a pairing) from any of my fandoms (Atlantis, season9/10 SG1, Firefly, early seasons West Wing), and I'll give you three facts from my personal "fanon" for that character (or pairing).

Here's a curveball for you: Major Lorne & Dr. Simpson.

Not necessarily as a romantic pairing, but surely being two grumpy yet relentlessly capable second stringers in Atlantis they've met and had something to talk about at some point.

Hmm, that is a bit of a curveball. Okay...

1. It takes Lorne three months on Atlantis to meet all of the scientists, even though he's making an effort to do it, and Dr Simpson is one of the last. He's looking for Dr Zelenka, and he stops in the open doorway to the lab when he hears McKay yelling. Dr Simpson is standing in front of a whiteboard, facing Lorne, with her back to McKay, and though he's clearly berating her, she's rolling her eyes and ignoring him. She looks so much like Lorne feels when Sheppard's having one of his I'm-too-stupid-for-the-Air-Force moments that he can't help grinning, especially when she grins back.

2. When Colonel Sheppard starts up a new programme of city exploration, Jeanette asks to be put on a team. She gets assigned to Lieutenant Cadman's, one of three scientists and two marines and, not entirely surprisingly, gets chatting to the lieutenant (the moments of discovery are fantastic, but Jeanette thinks this is more because they're so few and far between). They get on well enough that Jeanette starts having dinner with Laura a couple of times a week, and after a while, Major Lorne starts dropping by as well. It's been a while since Jeanette felt like she belonged as much as she does with the two of them.

3. During Lorne's first year in the city, he and Jeanette get trapped in a small space together five times, and each time, they come out rumpled and laughing. Neither of them miss the looks exchanged between the scientists, and sometimes the marines, working on getting them out. Neither of them say anything, either.

Sorry, that ended up being more tiny ficlets than fanon, but I hope it will suffice anyway :)

Hey, I am not one to look gift ficlets in the mouth, particularly when they're fun and well-written like this! Thank you kindly.

I don't know which is the more fun interpretation of that last: that they're actually carpe-ing the diem, or that they're mussing each other's hair and clothes to mess with everybody when they get out.

I'm glad you enjoyed them :)

No. I'm kind of torn betwen the two options as well, though the sensible part of me says they probably wouldn't want to risk being caught when someone did get the door open.
