Untitled Elizabeth/Teyla-ish double drabble (200 words), rated G
Now and again, as if she wasn’t sure her gesture was appreciated, Teyla offered Elizabeth a hand up after the Atlantis leader hit the gym floor during their improvised sparring session.
“I’m too old for this.” Her hand went to rub her sore back and she grimaced, the sticks dangling from her other hand.
“You’re just out of practice.” The smaller woman shifted back into fighting position.
“I’ve never had any practice.” With a gesture of her free hand, she refused Teyla’s offer of another friendly match. They touched foreheads and Elizabeth slumped ungracefully on the bench.
“With time, you’ll feel the benefits of physical activity.” The Athosian watched as Elizabeth, looking rather disheveled, ran a towel along her forehead and down the back of her neck.
“Right now, I feel only knots. And possibly a cracked vertebra or two.” She managed a tired smile and stretched a little.
Teyla recognized the irony in her words and bowed her head, a smile of her own on her lips.
Elizabeth rose with a huff. “I should take a shower before the briefing. I’ll see you at dinner.”
The woman limped away, leaving Teyla to tenderly bring the towel to her nose.
