Show: SGA
Rec Category: 5 Things
Characters: Several hitherto unrecognised members of the expedition, Rodney McKay, John Sheppard, Jennifer Keller, et al.  
Categories: Gen
Warnings: Nil
Authors on DW: [personal profile] shaenie and [personal profile] fiercelydreamed
Authors' Website: See shaenie's DW, the AO3  for both (esp. for shaenie's works), and this is fiercelydreamed's site
Link: Five people who the press won't care about when the Stargate Program goes public (and the reasons why the Atlantis expedition wouldn't have made it without them) on AO3
Why This Must Be Read: This is the 3rd of three '5 Things' stories by fiercelydreamed and shaenie, and I'm reccing all of them, but this one has the links to stories I and II at the top. It's one of those lovely, inventive backstory fics, that tells us about the unsung heroes of Atlantis. 

You don't need to read them in order, but if you want to: Part I is called  Five Ancient Gadgets on Atlantis Rodney Would Absolutely Piss Himself with Glee if he Found (there's a small hint of McShep in this one), and Part II is called Five medical issues Jennifer Keller is really, really sick of treating - these contain what their titles say, and they're all great!


1. Staff Sgt. Ezekial Cho, Munitions. He's barely ever spoken to Colonel Sheppard, aside from briefings with twelve other people or a nod and smile in the mess, but Zeke actually likes that about his C.O. He spends more time with Dr. McKay and Dr. Zelenka, because when it becomes clear after six months that they can't count on resupply from Earth, the only sensible course of action is to go to the people that build things and explain to them what he needs. He'd understood about the one way trip when they'd come to Atlantis, and he'd been in war zones when the supplies had run out; his personal item had been a flash drive containing everything you ever wanted to know about how to make small arms. During month ten, weeks before the Wraith lay siege to Atlantis, they use the last of the Earth-made bullets. By that time, Zeke has manufactured over two hundred thousand rounds of Atlantis-made bullets, and as far as he knows, Colonel Sheppard and the Marines never even notice the transition.
