Scary Lanteans

[dhrachth.livejournal.com]

Recently I was rereading Retrograde and one of my favorite parts was where Jack described the marines as scary. I'm looking for other stories with parts like that where an outsider (SG-1, IOA, new recruits, people they meet while visiting earth, etc.) finds a person or a group from Atlantis intimidating while the Atlantis bunch is just shrugging it off as business as usual.

I know there are already some excellent recs for Scary!John and Scary!Rodney from past requests, and more of those would be great if you know of any. I'm actually looking for a little broader slice of fic. Could be fic with the science department being freakishly competent in battle situations. Or maybe something where Ronon is making people nervous.

Pairing-wise, bonus points for McShep, but other slash pairings, gen, or het is perfectly fine. I'm not picky as long as the writing is good.

The classic (and best) Scary!John fic is rivier's Exigencies (http://rivier.livejournal.com/267985.html).

I love that fic. It's always worth a reread.
