Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[Fionnait]

No deals. Shep was the bad boy. He got what he deserved. You can share Todd and Kavanaugh. Shep has to take his punishment like a man.

Awww... you do realize that now Shep and Lizzie have been split up? That's just cruel and unusual punishment.

Yeah, you can't split Sparky up. That's just a no-go.

It keeps on snowing here. I had to free my car from a pile of snow so I could drive to the gym and when I wanted to return home I had do de-snow it again, and I can't have been in the gym more then an hour. I think we didn't have this much snow since I was little. (Okay, I think we did two years ago, but not where I live now but at home.)
I wonder why we don't get to see more different wheather and seasons on Stargate. Probably because it is too expensive to have anything other than BC climate wheather. When we get to see snow it's always shown though the MALP camera. Have we had snow on SGA? I suppose Atlantis would look really pretty in the winter...

[Southern Red]

Erin Cool manips and great story. It was... cute. There, I met my "cute" quota for the month.

SRwhere was I in that joke And I agree, you keep Shep. Now I have Lizzie for myself!

I'll have to rewrite it from the male perspective. Or you can.

Not if we, ahem, save him from his fate.

Sorry to split up Sparky. We can just take me out and put Lizzie in. I'll keep John in an AU.

Yeah, you can't split Sparky up. That's just a no-go.

It seems to be snowing all over the world. My son had a little accident in our big snow. His little Acura hit a patch of ice and bounced off a concrete barrier into a big pile of snow. Sounds bad but only needed a new bumper. And the rental company was out of economy cars so they asked him if he'd mind driving a new Lincoln for a week instead. He said he had to think about it but he was willing to make the sacrifice. Now he's glad to get his baby back but keeps thinking about those heated seats on the Lincoln. LOL

[Probie]

Well, it's true we can't split up John and Elizabeth. I keep my little Toddy. Good luck Anuna.

There is a big sun here but it's very cold.

Il fait froid Is there snow in France? I tried to watch French children's TV today, but I didn't understand much. Yesterday something was on with an evil red fish that I was able to follow *g*

@SR: Accidents are scary...

So, what does this all have to do with Sparky. *ahem*

[Scary Kitty]

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Lazy Sunday!

Not if we, ahem, save him from his fate.

Heheheheh...

The planet in Sateda, where the team got captured because the villagers had made a deal with the Wraith to turn in Ronon, had an ornamental dusting of snow. Just enough to make it look pretty, but not enough to even make a snowman.

Everything has to do with Sparky. Everything.

I checked it out. It's really just a tiny bit of snow, they probably just had a pillow-fight *g*

Everything has to do with Sparky. Everything.

That is true. For this reason I named my current haircolour (a mix of two red hair dyes) Sparky Red


P.S.: I just love the scene in Sateda where the arrow hits Rodney in the arse... So funny!

That, and when he's totally doped up on painkillers in the infirmary. What a riot!

[Fionnait]

Ooooh! Sounds fun!

See obsessions #14!

I'm watching Sateda. I think I've only seen the ep once.

Only once? Definitely watch it again, it's a good one!

[Fionnait]

That conversation between Teyla and John is great. But so awkward. I would think that they are more comfortable with each other... But this conversation again shows, that it is completely out of character that John does not go after Elizabeth. Steal a jumper, start a riot, move heaven and earth...

And Elizabeth preaching about leaving people behind is just ouch.

But great ep!

16. When you drive by the local marina and giggle knowingly at a yacht named 'Sparky.'

18. All of your favorite songs end up in your sparky fanfics, either as titles or quotes.
19. When you read other couples fanfiction and substitute John and Liz to see if it would work.
20. You read the Sparky Thread in the mornings instead of the news paper.
21. You print out Sparky fanfiction so you can read it away from your computer.
22. When this morning, you receive a call of Elizabeth from Atlantis and you can't stop smiling and imagine that there is maybe a John with her. But it was not the real Atlantis but just a name of a company and Elizabeth was the customer. (This is the second time this has happened)
23. You see a carnival with a ferris wheel and you immediately think of John taking Elizabeth for a ride.
24. Whenever you hear something else named Atlantis (Space Shuttles, Space Stations, ships, hotels, mythology) and you immediately make John & Elizabeth a part of the story.

31. you see a copy of war and peace and you wonder if john has a picture of elizabeth in it. or they read it together and wrote notes on the side to discuss the current chapter they are one.
32. Every time Joe or Torri guest stars in something other than SGA, you keep hoping to hear their characters give a closet Sparky mention.
33....at night when you "daydream" about potential Sparky fic ideas as you drift off to sleep....hoping for good sparky dreams..
34......when you have Sparky dreams more than 1 night a week....
35. When you're secretly pleased by the fact that your hair color is caught somewhere in the middle between John and Elizabeth's.
36. When you write Sparky fanfic anywhere, even in a doctor's waiting room.
37. When while buying your Christmas tree you wonder if John and Elizabeth would have a live or artificial one and picture them arguing about it.
38. When you're at a spin class, doing sprints, look down, see your seat is on the "E" setting and wonder "I wonder if John and/or Elizabeth would do this to keep in shape?"
39. when you see a couple of young kids and the girl gives the boy a hug and the boy is shocked and you wonder if john and elizabeth did that if they ever met as kids.

44. When you draw pictures of yourself with John and Elizabeth, just cause you love them so much.
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.
55. You and your fellow Sparkies come up with themes for every day of the week on what to discuss/fic/picspam about John and Elizabeth.
56. When getting ready for a night out a karaoke, you look at the Sparky Song List and pick songs from there to sing.
57. When your friends know your obsession enough to give you an absolutely amazing drawing of John and Elizabeth (that kissing manip I did) for a Christmas present.

59. You check the thread at least once every hour, eagerly awaiting the moment when the thread hits a new post milestone.
60. You sing "Something to Talk About" at karaoke and almost start to giggle at the line "Stand just a little too close" because it makes you think of Sparky (well...I wanted to giggle at pretty much the whole song...)
61. All this talk about blizzards and getting snowed in makes you want to read/write some fic about John and Lizzie cooped up in a cozy cabin during a snow storm.
62. You name the various components of your computer setup for Atlantis and Sparky.
63. Even baking chocolate/peanut butter cookies reminds you of Sparky.
64. You've got a cold and all you can think of is how John would pamper Lizzie whenever she gets sick.
65. You come onto the Sparky thread and growl when you find that the thread has been pushed back to PAGE TWO?!?!
66. When you can't wait to check the thread on Christmas and wish your fellow Sparkies a Merry Sparky Christmas
67. When yous pend hours on YIM chatting about Sparky and fic writing with your fellow shippers.
68. When you raise a toast to Sparky on New Year's Eve.
69. The Sparky thread is discussing Lifeline and its references to The Matrix films, and when a cable channel airs the entire Matrix trilogy the next day, you have to watch the entire frakin' thing just to see if there were any references you missed.
70. ...When you watch the opening sequence of the new star trek movie and you wonder if John Sheppard would sacrifice himself for Elizabeth and their son like George Kirk did for Winona and James.

71. When you are unable to watch the new Disney movie 'Princess and the Frog' or 'The Little Mermaid 2' without being reminded of Sparky.

(I have an adorable four year old cousin and she likes watching movies.)

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Lazy Sunday!

Heheheheh...

The planet in Sateda, where the team got captured because the villagers had made a deal with the Wraith to turn in Ronon, had an ornamental dusting of snow. Just enough to make it look pretty, but not enough to even make a snowman.

Eeek! I'm with Fionnait; accidents are scary!


Everything has to do with Sparky. Everything.

Indeed it does.
And since we're Sparky shippers, everything that relates to us ultimately relates to Sparky in some form or fashion. Yeah... suuuure... that makes sense.

Why didn't I think of that. But my hair isn't red enough to qualify as truly Sparky. Plus it's a combo of red/blonde/brown. But it does stick up in the mornings. So maybe I'll call it Sheppard Red.

My hair does the same stick-up-in-the-morning thing. And considering it's waist-length, that's a pretty neat trick. Hmm, I wonder if that means I've got some alien mutant gene just like John?
