Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[JT-2]

My aunt thought I needed to get up insanely early, so now I'm just killing time until my friend picks me up. But this means I get to reply to my buddy gateraid.

Sheppard: come up with plausible excuse to visit Elizabeth in her quarters? Check!
Act out one of the most sexually charged scenes in SGA history? Check!
Walk out of the room without bringing the scene to fruition? *breaks pencil*

And Marty G gives us unintentional ship once again.

*laughs at the hypocracy of GW*

Hey, I gave you a picture of wet!Elizabeth!! I'm not hypocritical at all.

As a math geek, you should be aware of the 'replicative fade' scenario. Surprisingly, SGA made an attempt at addressing this with the 'telemeres' thing. So....having all those clones shouldn't be an issue, so long as you're willing to have Keller as their physician. Tough call, I know

Oh, dude! That's just not right.

But the best is soooo good! It has a five rating - the good ones are a 9/10, the bad ones are a 1/10. Bastards

Yup, season 5 was wildly disjointed. And the best written episodes were by Cooper and Wright. That tells you everything right there. Let me say that yes, I have issues with the Keller parts of The Shrine because they came out of nowhere, but as a standalone episode it was pretty good (even if I think David overacted a tiny bit - sorry, David and David lovers! He was subtle on the pier scene and he and Joe were magnificent.)

I feel I should point out that the dark hair was not Sheppard's. It should go without saying, but some people round here think that I am a chick, so.... It also didn't involve Elizabeth, but that's not important right now

Belmene just mentioned in the Atlantis Rising thread that there are issues with the website. I checked and it seems to be offline.

Here be the Internal Server Error message (of doom):

I got dibs. He's gotta stop by my place first and make sure that ... umm, I wrote out my shopping list correctly ... and then I'll send him over. Although, it'd be better on gas if he stopped at your place first, then made his way to Florida. But if he's using a jumper, then it's a moot point.

I'm scared. I actually devised a plan.

Honey, if he stops by my place first he's not ever going to want to leave.

He's MINE!! MINE, I tell you!!

They can talk all they want, but I was offered him first and I don't share.

Put down the pretteh and step away slowly.

*sneaks in and snags the Sheppard*

tiptoes back out whispering "I'll have him back by midnight Lizzie!"

Come back here you! *chases*

Why am I the only one who likes that ep? I always thought they made a massive error when they toned McKay down a bit after that ep - too soon fellas, too soon. However, I never noticed the 'look' one of those kids gives Shep until they pointed it out on the commentary. I choose to put it down to admiration

I remember something from back in the day about "hovering extras" and how they all were looking at Joe when they were supposed to be looking at someone else. How could they have resisted?


Note to anyone who has noticed a problem with the SGA-Rising site: I've sent a message to Kris. Hopefully she can work her magic and find the problem. I'm clueless.

[ShipperWriter]

Whoa. I've created a rift in the thread. YES!

He's MINE!! MINE, I tell you!!

*dies laughing* ZOMG, you people SLAY ME!

tiptoes back out whispering "I'll have him back by midnight Lizzie!"

But you have your clones in the trunk of your new car! Why do you need the original too?

Because there is nothing quite like the original!

Well, I can't argue with that.

ROFL!!! Oh, what a perfect way to wake up: women insanely fighting over Teh Pretty. If JoeF ever saw us, he'd be disturbed. Hee hee!

And the originals are both hot when they're wet too.

*flails and diez*

Well, I haven't watched it yet, at all, so I'll reserve judgment for a few days.

LOL.

I woke up with a smutty plot bunny in my head. I wonder why is that!

Yes, my experiment worked!

... I mean, ahh, that's interesting. Why do you think?

That pier scene is one of my favorites of any SG series. Beer, a giggling John? Yep. I'm in love.

Honey, if he stops by my place first he's not ever going to want to leave.

Come back here you! *chases*

*shakes head* What would Mr. SR say???

I remember something from back in the day about "hovering extras" and how they all were looking at Joe when they were supposed to be looking at someone else. How could they have resisted?

I wouldn't have been able to drool, much less speak, if I saw JoeF. Staring's about the only thing I could do. *smirks*

Well, I'm off, got a busy day. Don't burn down the thread, and wherever John shows up with list checklist, move him to a secure location and don't tell JT & SR but call me ASAP.

*runs out*

You are a troublemaker, yes you are.

Mr. SR would probably say "have fun with that." Remember he's the one who stayed out in the hall holding people's purses while I went in the little room and hugged Joe.

And, as others will attest, he does draw the eye. That's for sure. Nobody believes he's actually better looking in person until they meet him. Mr. SR even agreed that was true. Hard to imagine, I know.

[Scary Kitty]

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Sparky!Family Saturday!

The book I'm rereading that gave me the idea is almost 900 pages so anything is possible. Granted that one covers over 3,000 years and this one will only cover two shows and three movies. Who knows what I'll come up with. Heck, I woke up from a nap earlier wondering what all the characters that are pilots would have as their callsigns.

Cool!

I've wondered about the callsign thing myself; I could swear I had read somewhere that Mitchell's was "Cam Shaft" (a play on his first name, Cameron), but I don't remember if that was in an episode or not.

Get me some answers, dammit Sorry, but I've always wanted to say that. Perhaps I should have waited for a better opportunity

As for Atlantis Rising: it continues! *happy dance, happy dance, happy dance*

Slowly, but surely.

*groans* Sad, but true.

Or if they've got nanites on board to keep 'em fixed up.

I woke up with a smutty plot bunny in my head. I wonder why is that!

And you guys are freakin' nuts with the "I want Shep first" thing! But I have to say, it would be worth the crack to see Lizzeh snap and come roaring in to defend her man, Ripley-style. LOL!

[ShipperWriter]

Quick question: does anybody know of any footage, whether episodes or behind the scenes, where JoeF/John is playing guitar?

I need it for a vid I'm creating.

I don't know of any footage, but there are a number of stills from behind the scenes moments. Do you have those?

[ShipperWriter]

I have a few. Do you recall which season they're from?

[Scary Kitty]

Pretty sure they're from Seasons 4 and 5. I think that's when Jason started teaching Joe how to play.

[gateraid]

It's "Shaft", from cam-shaft. Colonel Prendergast refers to him by that moniker in an SG-1 ep (I want to say Beachhead, but I'm not sure that's the one), and Carter questions him on it later. I wonder what hers was? Or O'Neill's, for that matter....

Slowly, but surely.

*crosses fingers*

*groans* Sad, but true.

I'm sure there's a fanfic out there where that isn't the case

Pretty sure they're from Seasons 4 and 5. I think that's when Jason started teaching Joe how to play.

It does not surprise me at all that Jason already knew how to play. Guys only learn (when they're younger) so they can pick up chicks. I was never particularly good at it - I hold the guitar like a left handed person would, even though I'm right handed. Backwards as usual

Ah, that's the one. I wasn't sure if it was just "Shaft" or "Cam Shaft."

Yeah, would be nice to know the others' callsigns. Especially Sheppard. *smirks* However, I think callsigns are usually associated with fighter pilots, not chopper pilots like Shep. Then again, now that Shep does fly fighters, I suppose he might have had a callsign bestowed on him.

Ooops.

[gateraid]

"Shaft" was also so they could get a cheap laugh out of it But to be fair, I imagine that's what his callsign would be if he were a real person

Carter's would probably be "Brains". Alternatively, if you follow unincyclopedia, it would be "Big Bird". I'm not sure about O'Neill - I guess it would depend on what he was into 25 years ago *shrugs*

All right, thanks! I'll start skimming the BTS pics.

Yup, it's a play on words for cam shaft, in "Beachhead".

As for theirs ... I dunno. Haven't really given it that much thought. John, on the other hand ...

It seemed like everybody learned to play in the small town I grew up in. Except me. I wish I had the time to learn now, but I don't. Pooh.

I wrote a story one time where his callsign was "Sparky". *diez laughing*

Sister's boyfriend is over so I snuck on real quick. Have massive headache that Aleve is not helping, and I still have "Can't Fight This Feeling" stuck in my head. God help me. *headkeyboard;kfdskn;gh;glgj:GOifgoifg*

Be back on later ...

I have these.

Ooops.

I don't know how it works in the big Air Force, but when SR Jr. was in ROTC he got a call sign. They had some big ceremony or whatever and made a big deal of it. I know someone I can ask though.
