Revenge Can Be Sweet

Title: Revenge Can Be Sweet
Pairing/Warning/Rating: none, rated G
Word Count: 100
Summary: Radek and Jack bond over their annoyance of McKay
Author's Note: TW/SGA crossover.  Written for the dialogue writing meme for [personal profile] kensieg  


“Radek, you seen McKay?”

“I can not say that I have, Captain, zaplat pánbuh.”

“I take it McKay’s been trying your patience a little as well?

“Yes. You understand Czech?”

“Yeah, sorry, just a word or two. Hey, it’s okay, I think a lot of people mutter under their breath when it comes to Rodney.”

“He can.... be a little trying some days.”

“Most days?”

“That too.”

“Ever tempted to have a little fun with him?”

“In what manner are you suggesting?”

“A misplaced decimal point here...”

“An inverted equation there...”

“Now you’re talking! You’re my kind of man, Zelenka.”


Author's Note #2: According to the online dictionary, zaplat pánbuh means thank goodness in Czech

Ha! Brilliant. I love the idea of Zelenka messing with Rodney. And Jack thrown in just makes it all the more fun.

(I tried pronouncing some Czech words when I went to Prague. I got many, many funny looks...)

I would slaughter the language if I tried. and my transliterations here are missing some of the various symbols I couldn't find codes for. *hangs head in shame*

I have NO idea how Radek puts up with having Rodney as a boss. The poor guy

Hee! This made me grin! I love Zelenka and Jack bonding over mutual annoyance. Especially when they're planning to retaliate with math!

I bet Zelenka could have a lot of fun that way... :)

Jack and Zalenka would make a great Mckay baiting team *G*

I can just picture the two of them muttering the Czech within Rodney's hearing, just to annoy the man

And when Rodney cottons on Jack could start teaching Radek some of the more arcane languages he's picked up on his travels :D

Hee! Yay for Jack enabling Zelenka. That man deserves a lot of pranks on Rodney.

Radek always gets the worst of Rodney's lectures and self-importanceness. I'd love for him to snark back sometime (he sort of did in the begining of 'miller's crossing' and I loved him for it!)

Wonderful! Thank you for this lovely drabble. I love this. I've been wanting a smart Jack drabble for days!
