Did you not say it is played on ice, O'Neill?

I am a little curious though. Given your passionate feelings on the French national team Probie, I was wondering if you preferred watching the French League of Portuguese League."First Weir, then Samantha Carter, and now, you! It's a pity you humans die or get reassigned so easily, or I might have a sense of satisfaction now!"
*You got the touch! You got the poweeeeer!*
"Arise, Woolseyus Prime."
"Elizabeth..."

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

We lost against Barca.

But to be honest, I prefer the English league or Spanish league. There is more competition. And I'm a fan of Mourinho.lol
I also prefer the champion league. I love football. I love sport.sigpic

Anyhow, just read those other two fics. John as a puppy ... OMG, ROFL!!!!!! I'm seeing another fic. Rodney as a cat. Or a donkey. Can't figure out which one fits better. Too many @$$ jokes on the last one ... Hee!
Getting ready to post new angsty fic. Brought to you in part by Taylor Swift's new CD.
Yeah. I deserved that.

So I was reading JM's blog from a couple of years ago, looking for something bout Elizabeth, and I found this delightful little sob story:
Spoilered bcuz it's the original draft scene of John and Elizabeth's walk through the woods in "This Mortal Coil". Angst. Whodathunk?!
Spoiler:The Sheppard-Weir walk and talk: In the original draft, the conversation played out slightly differently:
#Duplicate Weir: “I can empathize. Quite literally, a part of me is gone and I can't tell you how sad that makes me. But the part of me that's still here wants me to tell you that Elizabeth isn't gone; that she's right beside you whether you want to accept it or not.â€
Sheppard:“From what I understand of all this, you are her in almost every way. And I wish I could take some comfort from that, but I can't. I'm sorry.â€
Duplicate Weir: “I didn't expect this to go any other way. From the moment I learned the truth, I knew there'd be no going back to the way things were. Not for me. Not for any of us.â€
Sheppard: “That doesn't mean you can't be a part of Atlantis in some way. You can still contribute. Things will just be different.â€
Duplicate Weir: “To be honest with you, John, that isn't really the issue. I guess what really bothers me is knowing you and the others will always consider me as less than what I really am.â€
Sheppard: “Eliz - look that's not true.â€
Duplicate Weir: “Of course it is. You can't even say my name.â€
They walk in silence.
Duplicate Weir: “Because it's not your name. Not really. That's what you're thinking right now. And I don't blame you, John. But if you could get inside my head, you'd know - I am the Elizabeth Weir you knew. In every way.â€
Sheppard doesn't have an answer for that.
And the end scenes:
Spoiler:On the run: Did you record the episode or buy it off I-tunes? If so, play the Sheppard-Dupli-Weir run from the explosions in slo-mo. See that look of utter terror on Joe Flanigan’s face? Terrific acting you say? Well, I heard that on the day, those explosions were a little too close for comfort according to Joe. On the bright side, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Joe run so fast.
Also, it’s a little thing, but there’s something about seeing Weir hitting the dirt and Sheppard stopping to help her up before resuming their run that I love every time I see watch this episode.
The puddle jumper is shot down while the real team makes good their escape: The question I’ve seen asked is “Why did all of the duplicates sacrifice themselves in the puddle jumper?†The answer is: because they didn’t think they’d necessarily be sacrificing themselves. Although their intention was to draw the replicators away from the gate so that the real team could get away, the duplicates were attempting to escape themselves.
The final scene: Closure. I wanted to make it clear that John had not given up on Elizabeth until the very end. And neither did Rodney.
