    OMG drew, you hand write? I try occasionally, and only to make notes but the real (fic) writing oges on when I have my laptop. Heee, I read your ficlet and I think you're pretty naughty - good kind of naughty. Now, I believe a person has to get used to that naughty side of them. keep practicing and you'll see how you'll become comfortable with words and concepts.

    How is everyone? I've been impossibly busy today. i'm ready to fall asleep.
    I'm not weird, I'm limited edition.

      Busy. Tired.

      FINISHED WITH MY SPARKY SANTA FIC! I'm just waiting to send it off to my beta and then I can sleep peacefully for a night. *sigh*

        YAY! (I got your PM) - that is great news! I really really envy your beta reader now!

        Okay, guys, I'm done for today. I need my comfy bed. You know what, we've got lazy. I hope we'll pick up our usual bouncy rythm after the holidays

          hee hee....I love that line!

          I usually do...today and one other fic are the exception to the rule. I think that's why I had so much trouble with nanowrimo...it's hard for me to just pound it all out on the computer.
          hee hee thanks...coming from you that's quite a compliment! lol And I'm working on that little challenge you gave me...just need to find the time to write it.

          I'm all right...my children are annoying me to no end today though...they've done nothing but scream at and fight with each other all day. I can't wait til their daddy gets home so that I can get a little break!

            Firstly, Merry Christmas!! I hear it's a big deal or something....

            And I know you covered this some time ago, but I thought I'd bring it back

I still think it's because they knew there was no way he could be disinterested. And they didn't know how to write him that way, so easier just to pretend he never knew about it or found out offscreen.
            The snark in me says its because John's eyes would pop out of his head like Daffy Duck when he saw her. There's no way he could have given her shtick about the top and the date without it being at least a little shippy, so it fell to Carson, the only other person who could (it couldn't be Teyla, as it would look like Teyla was glad she'd moved on plus she'd talked to her previously)

            What do you mean they? It was Gero and his agenda all the way. We can't have the obvious reality of Sparky get in the way of his idea of what should be. Funny how that worked out. Heh. Sunday was one of those eps that came out of that AU we talked about before in which some viewers got a totally different show than others.


            Oh, I read on another thread that JM in answer to a question on his blog said that his idea for the series finale was for them to wake up on that mist planet in Home and the last 4 years to all have been an illusion. I never thought I'd have another kind word for him but if he really meant that I wish it could have come to pass. OMG, wouldn't that have been just awesome? Nearly everyone would have been happy...no McKeller, no Kanaan, no baby, Carson is alive and best of all Elizabeth is alive and where she belongs. Then we'd all be free to fantasize the rest of their lives. I'm pretty close to flailing over that. But I suspect he was yanking somebody's chain.
            I have a word for him. But I'm sure it would hurt his feelings. I do think he was being facetious though.

            Originally posted by Southern Red View Post
            Oh I love Kanaan too. But other shippers want him dead, so they would be happy. I forgot about Ronon. But still you must admit it would solve a lot of problems and just wipe out all the arguing of the last 4 years. And it would be just the kind of diabolical thing TPTB would think is funny. Plus it would put fandom in an uproar and you know how they love that. I mean just look at us, we don't even agree. LOL

            If I was asked to choose, I would reset to First Strike, but even that wouldn't be logical. Let's see....how about we go back to Lifeline. When they land the city they find they traveled through a time warp. No they don't do a dance...well maybe just a little one. Then they find themselves right back on 'Lantea but it's several months earlier. *grasps at straws*
            I have a vision of the entire cast doing the time warp dance now. Maybe they saved it for the wrap party They could still reset after Lifeline, with a simple script change to RUN LIZZIE RUN!!!! Okay, don't mind if I do John......

            I have one that's believable and one we'd love. The end of the Real World. John really was infected when he touched Elizabeth and the last 2 1/2 years have been his personal hell.

            To take him over the replicators have been trying and trying and trying to find ways to isolate him from people:

            At first, they were testing him, finding out how he deals with stuff and what his reactions will be (torturing him in CG/Irresponsible); flashing back to his past (Phantoms), taking him away from Atlantis (TR1&2); threatening his people (Echoes), testing his guilt (The Game), his fear (CB/Submersion); testing connections to people (ToR, The Ark, Sunday).

            When they figure out his greatest weakness is his friends, they start taking them out: Sunday, First Strike/Adrift/Lifeline, Doppelganger, Missing, Miller's Crossing, This Mortal Coil, Quaranting, TK 1&2, TLM. And it's not just death, it's also moving away from him (S4 - Teyla; S5 - McKay) But John hangs on and hangs on desperately. By the time you get to to EATG, they've forced him into leaving Pegasus, with everything he ever really loved about Atlantis gone, lost or out of his reach.

            Then _________________ happens (insert plot point where John reaches the limit and realizes something MAY be up). All of a sudden the replicator plan starts to break down and John has to fight through his mind to rescue himself. Of course, all friends can help him--including Elizabeth, still recovering on her own.
            Or we are still in the leader to leader mind warp. Which now that I think about it doesn't make sense, given that Oberoth's planet imploded

              I had mentioned to hubby in passing that I wanted to go...and then he made me really upset and hurt last night and I decided I deserve to treat myself. I'll be making my reservations as soon as I'm sure my sisters are going to make the trip with me (they won't do the con but at least we'll get a girls' weekend away and I won't have to travel alone). And I'm totally getting a photo op (and will probably pass out... ).

              Be careful with all that snow (last I heard we're only supposed to get about 3 inches up here...kinda disappointing actually)

              SK yes yay! but I'm a nervous wreck already and I haven't even registered...I'll be lucky if I survive the actual weekend! LOL

              Yikes!! Ed Olmos, Katie Sackoff, & Torri; that does sound good. I'm a big fan of the BSG series, but flying across the Pacific is out for me. Maybe they'll come to New Zealand for a looksie....

              45. When watching the ep "Home", after Elizabeth says something's not 'right' after Simon kisses her, you literally yell at the TV "That's because he's not John!"
              46. You get a tattoo and wonder if John or Elizabeth has one.
              47. You see a pendant that looks kinda-sorta like a stargate, and you think it would make a great present for John to give to Elizabeth.
              48. You see a messy haired baby and think of Sparky babiez.
              49. You begin thinking up new ideas to do 'manips' using them
              50. You hear a song on the radio, and wonder if it would go well with a Sparky vid
              51. You wonder if Elizabeth and John would go clothes shopping together and what kind of goofy fun they could get into
              52. Seeing an ad for Christmas pajamas with candy canes on them makes you think about Sparky and gives you a smutty plot bunny.
              53. Upon getting a Wii for Christmas you and your hubby look at each other and say, at the same time, "We can make John and Elizabeth Mii's"
              54. You go to Disneyland, and while watching the Christmas fireworks show, they start playing 'I'll Be Home For Christmas,' and you think about how John and Lizzie won't be together for Christmas.

              Given that I recently heard #54 in a store the other day and thought that the singers sounded like they wanted to commit suicide, maybe it's a tie-in with John's suicidal tendacies to have the most depressing carol of all time?

              And to try getting back on topic, I've been thinking through how the idea of everything after Home being a dream could work. I'll be back with details. I think I may have dreamed something last night.
              That does not sound like a pleasant christmas at all. I can't wait to see how it ends

                Nah, that could still work. This is Oberoth we're talking about, after all. He would totally come up with all sorts of crazy mind s**t to try to convince Lizzie it was "safe" so that she'd let her guard down.

                Y'know, that would not surprise me at all. John is the frakin' King of Angst.

                    Heck, I'd never written anything as long as Restoration before, either. Even my term papers weren't that long!

                      I don't know if I have enough imagination to write anything that long...but my "Bless the Broken Road" fic is already two chapters and counting, so who knows? It'll just never happen all in one sitting...my house is too crazy to let that happen...

                            How am I today? Tired, but feeling accomplished.

                            Eri, I'll have the fic back to you soon; I did my first read-through last night, and I LOVE this story!

                            Sparky is on screen. Therefore, it is canon. Elizabeth is still out there. And John WILL bring her home.

                              Yay! That makes me feel a bit better. I was worried.
