Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[Eri13]

Thanks for all the compliments, again, guys. I had fun writing this one, so perhaps I'll try more in this style.

*cough* After I finish Testament *cough*

SK I feel much better now. Since there's so many sparky hopeless romantics, I made this for you.

Wishing

John Sheppard stopped to fill his canteen in the village well after another run. He sat down on the steps outside his small hut. After a long drink of water John leaned back and looked up at the stars. He was getting lonely; not just for Rodney, Teyla, and Ronon. John really missed Elizabeth Weir.

Wishing, that I could see you every day
Wishing, that I could steal your heart away

Elizabeth stepped outside of her office to the balcony over looking the ocean. Her thoughts kept drifting to John. Elizabeth was determined to find and rescue the military commander of Atlantis. John did save her from Kolya and the Genii. But Elizabeth knew her conviction was driven by more than loyalty among comrades. Her driving force was stronger than that.

Dreaming, of the time I can hold you tight
Wishing, that the time would come tonight

While he looked at the stars, John smiled at an old memory. His grandparents would sit outside with him as a child and look for shooting stars. A few times he actually saw one. But John was not wishing for a new puppy, a GI Joe, or a remote controlled airplane. John was looking to make a wish to see one person.

I’ve been hoping all along things would turn out right
If I could find a wishing star then I could spend the night

Coffee, something Elizabeth rarely drank. She switched to tea years ago. But when things turned horrible, coffee provided her instant relief. Elizabeth pulled out her father’s pocket watch. 3:12 am the watch read. Elizabeth let out a sigh of frustration. She knew Rodney and Zalenka were working as fast as possible. She knew status updates would only slow them down. Elizabeth missed John’s calm and confident strength in these situations.

John finished his water and went back inside his hut. He stretched and got ready for bed. John was getting tired of fighting monsters all alone. He liked to villagers well enough; they were simple people with simple lives. Ascension did not appeal to him, but John understood why people tried to do it. And the villagers had no will to fight. John smiled thinking about Elizabeth. She may not be a soldier, but she will stand up and defend what she believes is right.

Elizabeth finished her coffee and decided a walk would ease her mind. She never got to see as much of the city as she wanted. The scientists and military did most of the exploring. But she knew a little spot where a small fountain resided. Elizabeth slipped of her boots and sock. She slipped her feet in the cool water and closed her eyes. Elizabeth felt immediately relaxed and inhaled deeply then opened her eyes. She looked up to see a shooting star. Elizabeth smiled knowing John would use his boyish charm and convince her to make a wish. Elizabeth closed her eyes again and made her wish.

John looked out the window while laying in bed. A falling star streaked across the night sky. He grinned thinking of how he could tease Elizabeth into making a wish. John wondered what Elizabeth’s wish would be. He closed his eyes and made a wish. John went to sleep content his wish would come true.

I think I found my house. 3 bed/3 bath with attached 2 car garage. And a walk-in closet. The rear deck has a large above ground pool. I'm not a fan of pools, but we could have a sparky pool party. Hmm, Lizzie in bikini *thoughts of baseball and coldshowers*

Awww...that was cute. And now I really, really want to watch Epiphany.

Congrats on the house!

OOOHHHH - yes please!

WOWEE - that is awesome! I was hanging on your every word, hoping for a happy ending. Nicely done!

Heck ya I waas thinking that!

Shamefully, so was I.

I'm tryin' to find a recording of No One that's just Alicia and her piano...no luck yet but I SWEAR I've heard it before, so I'll keep lookin'....

I know iTunes has a video of an acoustic performance that sounds like what you're looking for... but again, it's a video.

pkprd869: Great fic!!!
Hey my homie, I can live with you? I will escape my new ex favorite american family and I will sleep near the pool.lol


drew: You're lucky with you rpool. I tried to convince my parents to have a pool but they didn't want. I threatened to dig myself the pool when they were in Portugal. I don't know why but my father wasn't in agreement.lol

Good news: Maybe (and it's maybe), I will have a new stable job for my birthday. I'm not kidding. Maybe the company, where I work for the moment, will keep me.

[drewandian]

hmmm probie can't imagine why your dad wouldn't be happy about you digging yourself a pool.... lol
yay (maybe) on the job!

Hey former French daughter you have hurt your American family's feelings. Don't reject us because most some of us are crazy. But if you really want to live in Chicago where it is very very cold and crowded, I'm sure you will be welcome. Can you cook?

We don't have a pool or even room for one but they are a lot of trouble anyway. I remember reading a fic where John is Elizabeth's pool boy. Does anybody have a link? It was yummy.

Yeah yeah I want to read that fic as well and drool over the thought of *Pool Boy*!!!

*runs and jumps in mom's arms* I can't leave you. It was a joke. I love my new family. *cries* I'm sorry.Do you still love me, my little mamounette?
But I can go visit Chicago one day.lol

Don't remember this fic. It seems interesting.

[pkprd869]

Probie and SR We're all crazy. I live about 1.5 hours from Chicago, and it's pretty quiet. Small town and all. Chicago is fun, but it's expensive. Like $5.00 for a bottle of miller lite expensive. I don't like pools either. Maybe I'll replace it with a hot tub. Lizzie in hot tub... *DROOL*

[Scary Kitty]

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Pretty Friday!

Probie, good luck on the (hopefully) new job!

I remember that fic! I know it was on LJ, and possibly at Wraithbait... give me an hour, and I'll see what I can come up with.
