Ah, Southern Red, guess this was the reason why John fell asleep half way through his next session (Sorry, Gatebyte), I'll reschedule a longer appointment for tomorrow. Your preference for a gunbelt? John has several. Do you want the one holding the P-90 or the Magnum. I wouldn't worry too much about John calling you Elizabeth. He calls everybody that - must be a term of endearment.
P.S. Love four fanfic - keep up the good work.

Elizabeth and John don't withhold from each other. They don't cheat or lie to each other. They don't one-up or show up the other. They don't backstab the other. They proverbially hold each other's hands and place their faith in each other and there is no greater love that can be shown than such unconditional faith. *insert no sarcasm here*
Edit: Sorry about the typo, Gatebyte (RL is getting really impatient). Meant "your" not "four". Maybe it was ESP and you'll write four more chapters?

All ya'll are friggin' crazy. And I love it But I'm gonna interrupt with an attempt at something intelligent.
I was reading War and Peace. Weird I know. I don't really like Russian lit, but figured I'd give it a try. Pg 17 is all about a conversation between Prince Andrei, whose married and his friend Pierre. There's an awkward moment preceeding it in where Andrei's wife Lisa is complaining to Pierre about her hubby goin to war. She breaks down yaddayadda. Then leaves. Dre *yes I'm giving him a new name cos I don't feel like typing 'Prince Andrei' tells Pierre to NEVER GET MARRIED or rather if he does get married, do it when he's older. "Otherwise, all that is good and noble in you will be thrown away. All will be wasted in trifles." But further into convo he says, "My wife, is a lovely woman. She is one of those few women to whom a man can feel that his honour is safely intrusted." In context of 'Home' in that scene who walks into his room? That person for him would be ELIZABETH.
He, Dre, continues later on in the passage about Bonaparte, and how he was free and let nothing stand b/w him and his goal. "But tie yourself to a woman and you are like a prisoner in chains, your whole freedom is destroyed. And in proportion as you feel that you have hope and powers, the more you will be weighed down and tormented with regrets." So I thought that was the reasoning behind all the 'kirking' and justification for it in TPTB minds in regards to season2 they can say 'See, we set up this character trait way back in season 1. He's just following Tolstoy's advice. He's smart.' *snark*
Buuut that which is described is kind of what's happened on this lil expedition with her now ain't it? John's 'tied' to Elizabeth in a command situation and their fight for freedom from the Wraith his freedom, as a man, has not been destroyed, if anything he's been given it by her. And there have been moments with that whole 'with great power comes great responsibility' thing, 'Rising', LFP. But the difference is that they both bear that regret. Anyway I was pondering the significance of this specific page being mentioned in one of the early shipper scenes. And if anyone could possibly have another take on it. Cos ya know ya'lls are so insightful.~Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it but only you can feel the true warmth. ~

Hey you Guys!!!!!
Long time no talk/posting on my part. I'm a little late with this but i absolutely loved "Allies" and can't wait for the new season to start in July.
BTW I loved all the captions that you guys have been putting up, especially the marriage ones, lol
Welcome to any Newbies!!!*AtlantisFan*
McKay: Oh, believe me that's not the first thing we tried.
Sheppard: I shot him.... In the leg.
Ford: How can something as big as Atlantis just sink?
Sheppard: I'm sure the passengers on the Titanic were asking themselves the same question?!
McKay: You're right- if only we had a magical tool that could slow down time. I foolishly left mine on Earth - did you bring yours?
McKay: I will try, but despite what you all may think, I am not Superman

Oh, and I've been meaning to say how much I love your username. It's German for "Madly falls in Love" right?
Ok, now I'm seriously going to do some work. Talk to you all later.

Oh how the tunes have changed:
Spoiler:
But is a Teyla / Sheppard romance in the mix for Season Three?
"Well, I'm not adverse to it," she said. "I would like to see some sort of love interest for Teyla, but whether or not that ends up with Sheppard, I don't know. My take on it is that although it might be hinted at and teased at, I don't think the writers are going to make anything more of it ... it might be a tricky road to go down."
Or, boring as h*ll, whatever.

By the time 'Home' filmed, it's possible that TPTB recognized that there wasn't much chemistry between Sheppard and Teyla. This very well could be a subtle hint that they decided that Sheppard wouldn't be "tied down" by a relationship; a statement accentuated by staging the scene around a conversation with his superior. Never mind the fact that said superior is an attractive woman with whom he has great chemistry.
I think the prince's comments about the burdens of a relationship may not necessarily apply in Atlantis. At least not between these two people, who are already partners working for common goals.
a time to mourn
