Stargate Atlantis Secret Santa 2012

Title: The Courage in Bread and Water
Author: squeakyoflight
Recipient: temaris
Pairing: Keller/Sheppard friendship, Keller/Dex pre-relationship, background McShep. Mention of previous Keller/McKay.
Rating: 14A for violence, attempted non-con, and coarse language.
Disclaimer: Minor spoilers for: "Trio," and "Missing."
Notes: For Temaris, who wanted happy endings with no permanent breakage, and a McShep with the Atlantis women kicking arse and taking names without the guys bumbling along. Well, I got one guy and one woman, so I hope that counts! She also wanted people saving their own necks and not being helpless and 'Smart is hot.' I hope this fic meets with your approval! And Temaris, I know you said 'no non-con,' but it doesn't get that far. Promise!

With great thanks to my beta Taste_is _Sweet for her amazing work

Summary: "When your friend is closer to death you will beg for the favours my touch will grant you," the guard said.
