Top Ten Best Pranks Pulled On Atlantis:

List for Tuesday May 29, 2007

These resulted from being cooped up on the city for too long and have been documented in the Atlantis files. They also are a series of revenge plots in a way!

10 Someone got the bright idea to put black dye in all of the scientists' coffee pots so that anyone who felt compelled to drink a cup of coffee in the morning ended up black mouths. However there were varying shades of darkness. You had the slightly dark teeth and gums from the casual one cup drinkers to the 'oh my gosh did you eat coal?' black mouths like McKay who downs an entire pot before breakfast. The funny thing is most of them didn't notice until it was pointed out by some of the kinder people on the base. Most of the marines however just stared at them and snickered some. In Sheppard's case he couldn't stay in the same room as Rodney and gave up the game during their briefing. Let's just stay Elizabeth was not too happy. (She had a black mouth as well.)

9. The same anonymous person who dyed all the coffee took a leaf out of Radek's book when they decided to release blue dye into all the showers. After hearing Zelenka threaten everyone with cold water for a week, the prankster managed to sneak the dye in. Let's just say everyone knew who hadn't showered because they had escaped looking like a smurf.

8. One Christmas morning Elizabeth Weir found her office all decked out in decorations, especially her windows. Someone had taken the time to draw Christmas pictures and winter scenes on all of the glass windows that surrounded her office. However it didn't stop there, at Valentine's Day the windows were covered in hearts, and when Easter rolled around so did the many pictures of Easter eggs that filled her windows. By then she had gotten pretty fed up with not knowing who the culprit was so she hid out in her office and to her delight caught the sneaky vandals. Turns out Sheppard and Lorne were pretty artsy craftsy and had a little too much free time.

7. Someone (Cough. Cough.) found McKay sleeping in his lab one afternoon while stopping in to see if he wanted lunch. However, Rodney's head was using his data pad as a pillow and he was still clutching the stylus he had been using before falling asleep. Apparently the scientist had pulled an all-nighter again, well they got the bright idea to mess with the scientist and after spotting some super glue on Rodney's desk proceeded to glue the stylus the scientist was still clutching to his hand. Another symbol of how much of a geek McKay really was. Well when Rodney woke up he was a little freaked out to say the least.

6. McKay got his revenge latter on that week while at the weekly briefing. A certain military commander who was supposed to be paying attention fell asleep again, setting a new record for fasted time zoning out at a meeting, while Rodney was droning on and on about some new thing that was going to change the way they ran Atlantis, basically it was his device of the week. Well Rodney wanted payback and he and Ronon proceeded to give the colonel a little makeover with some of the dry erase markers that were in the room. The amusing thing is that Elizabeth and Teyla actually chipped in a bit by providing some of their make-up/ Yep John looked rather interesting when he showed up for his military briefing with Lorne and co afterwards.

5. Now of course John had to get back at Rodney for getting back at him and did so about a week later. He was rather sneaky and managed to 'borrow' a box of exam gloves from the infirmary and cleverly filled them with water thus making his own water balloons. All he had to do now was pick some targets and chuck some homemade water balloons. His list was as follows: McKay, Lorne, Ronon, McKay, newbie military, McKay, Beckett, McKay…… Well he got Lorne who wanted to join in and Ronon managed to get both of them instead. Well the runner joined the other two and they finished off the list getting Rodney for the fifth time that day when Elizabeth put a stop to their antics. Rodney was not amused at changing clothes five times that day either.

4. McKay got his revenge by goosing one of the chefs into collaborating with him to make a birthday cake for Sheppard. They surprised him with it at lunch on his special day shocking the entire mess since the pilot had keep the occasion pretty low key telling nobody. Well John was doubly surprised when the devious dessert exploded on him when he tired to cut into it. Well an icing and cake covered colonel ended up chasing a cowering McKay out of the mess after wiping the dessert out of his face. Let's just say it was a birthday to remember by all. Ronon enjoyed eating the remains of the cake though while his two teammates fought elsewhere in the city.

3. Someone (Cough. Cough. Chuck) sneakily took control of the citywide speakers for an afternoon and decided to play DJ picking the most annoying songs ever created to blast for the entire city to hear. It took a while to figure out it was him because McKay was offworld with Zelenka and nobody suspected Chuck for some reason. Lesson learned that day: don't underestimate smiling Canadian gate technicians.

2. Sheppard decided to get revenge on McKay for the cake incident and managed to get a hold of ten creates of lemons, five whip cream filled pies, and a bunch of yellow construction paper. He decorated McKay's office to look like the inside of a lemon with lemons all over the place. Then when McKay entered the pies struck him all over and a whipped cream coated Rodney fled to the infirmary to make sure he didn't react to anything. He also refused to go into his office for a week until it was cleaned up.

1. McKay was pretty mad at Sheppard after that and a few weeks later found something that would make sweet revenge on the pilot. In one of the labs he ran across the ancient version of hair dye. After some tweaking Rodney had perfected it so that it was extra strength and long lasting. McKay covertly snuck into the pilot's room and added some to the shampoo bottle that was in the shower. The next morning the spiky haired colonel showed up for the morning staff meeting with bubblegum pink hair and was not happy about it. The got plenty of laughs from everyone including Caldwell who showed up four days later. Unfortunately Sheppard's hair was still hot pink then.

--------Author's Note---------

Okie dokie I know that an update has been a lot time coming, but I sort of ran out of free time and ideas so I am going to close with fic for now. If I have anymore ideas later or any worthwhile requests I might reopen up the fic and add to it, but quite frankly I am all out of ideas now. I want to thank you for all of your reviews, they were so nice and I really enjoyed reading them!
