Back with more treats for this fandom - this time with art inspired by the awesome fics of some Atlantis veterans! I love you guys so so much <3

A Million Little Things by @deinonychus-1 (pre-series Herc & Pyth friendship)

Alone by @pythagoras-thetriangleguy (1x07 coda, hinted Heptariadne)

Five by @girlwhowasntthere (post-2x04 AU, dark!Jason, multiple ships)

GO (RE-)READ! :)

[aislinceivun]

Reminder that the Fanfic Book Club is still a thing over in the LJ community! We’ve already discussed 5 fics, and here’s the schedule for this month:

5-12 SEPT: Something Like a Situation (haotolerant) 12-19 SEPT A Million Little Things (deinonychus_1) 19-26 SEPT: Properly receptive to new ideas (StealingPennies) 26-3, SEPT, OCT: Her Cure (mangollama)

Remember that you can jump in any time - you can go backwards, you can choose to read only those fics that interest you. Really, the only goal is to have fun. And this month’s selection is bound to be easier to read after we had gone through the most tragic and angsty fics during the first round xD

Come and join us :)

I’m posting this link again in the main tag, because several people had messaged me and said they were interested, but then never showed up.  You guys do realize we’ve actually started, right?

Here’s the schedule:

1-8 AUG: A Longing That Persists (AislinCeivun) 8-14 AUG: Feel (deinonychus_1) 15-22 AUG: Grey in the Dark (StealingPennies) 22-29 AUG: Five (girlwhowasntthere) 29-5 AUG, SEPT: wings of feather and wax (bucky_bunny_teeth)

The dates aren’t set in stone, so you can absolutely still comment on ALTP and Feel.  You can also only participate for fics that interest you; it’s not all or nothing.  Also, please vote when we decide what to read next month (in case perpetual angst and sorrow isn’t your cup of tea which somehow got all the votes this time around and we’ve scheduled a month straight of suffering).

For atlantianbloodliar who was feeling down and requested a little Jariadne ficlet. She mentioned the drabble/art combo I made for the Secret Santa, and I ended up doing something similar. :’) Lydia, I hope you like it!

“Your Majesty?”

Jason sprung up from the chair, not caring one bit that it made him look anything but majestic. In that moment, he was not the King of Atlantis – just a regular husband worrying for his wife. “Yes. How’s she?”

“The Queen is alright, as is the child. It was a false alarm; I assure you, sire, there is nothing to worry about.”

Jason let out a breath he hadn’t realised he was holding in. He nodded at the physician and clasped his shoulder, even as he was already advancing toward the closed door. “Thank you. You may go.”

Ariadne glanced up the second she heard the door opening, and upon seeing his face, a beautiful smile blossomed on her face. Her hands were curled around her belly, but now she raised one to beckon him closer.

Of course, Jason didn’t need the prompting: he was already marching forward. As soon as he closed the short distance between them, he dropped to his knees in front of his Queen, his Beloved… the mother of his soon-to-be born child. 

Ariadne stroked his face and then slipped her fingers under his chin.

“We are alright, my love. I’m sorry I made you worry.”

Jason kissed her fingertips.

It’s been two years since they retook Atlantis from Pasiphae’s evil clutches. Two years since they made Jason’s ancestry public and, after receiving the blessing of the gods, started ruling together. The kingdom was prospering like never before. And his friends… well. Hercules was travelling a lot, making a name for himself as a true hero at last, while Pythagoras and Icarus opened a school together for children with a thirst for knowledge - but they always made time to get together like in the old days. Cassandra was just as beloved and admired as the previous Oracle. Medea, Therus and Arcas visited them at least a couple of times a year.

Half a year ago Jason had thought it was not possible to be any happier… but expecting their first child thought him that there was always space for more happiness.

He pressed a hand to Ariande’s round belly and smiled when he felt the fluttering of life under his palm. Soon now, he will be able to hold and kiss the baby properly.

For now, he was perfectly content kissing Ariadne.

Atlantis Fanfic Book Club

The Atlantis Book Club is already happening over on LJ. Come join us in the discussion! We start a new fic (or, with multi-chaptered stories, chapter) every Saturday.

Relevant Post: Week #1 

Fic Of The Week: A Longing That Persists

IMPORTANT: You don’t need to have an LJ account to participate. You can use OpenID, Facebook, Twitter and Google accounts to comment. (Anonymous commenting is an option, too, although not encouraged.)

Several suggestions were made about what fics should we read & discuss together.

✩ Check out this spreadsheet for schedule + info on suggested fics. ✩

✩ Vote here on what we should read next week. ✩

Have any other questions, suggestions, comments, etc? Here’s the general discussion post.

Have fun!

PS: While Shapes of Tomorrow has been suggested by many and is on the list, it’s not available for voting in the poll. The reason is simple: it’s too long. If the Book Club is successful, however, and people stay interested, the main contributors mentioned that we might eventually work up to that, too.

We’ll be having book club on the main Atlantis LJ community.  Everybody head over there and help choose our first fic to read!
