Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[Southern Red]

Wow, what lovely pics. I love watching the two of them together - on SGA and in real life. They have such a wonderful chemistry and just seemed to be a little bit in love with each other.

I really would love to go to a convention with the two of them togehter but, alas, I doubt they would both come to England anyway. Such a shame.

In love with each other in a strictly friends way, of course. I know Joe has done several cons in the UK. I'm not sure about Torri.

*iz ded from SR's vid and KrisRussell's pics*

oh the beauty of sparky

and could Torri be any more adorable!?

IKR, and poor Pauly was up there with them looking adorable too. Sorry Pauly, we love you, but Sparky has to get the focus.

I'm pretty sure Torri's done cons in the UK as well...

Aw Paul's a cutie too! I just wanna squish them all! lol

Yep, Torri has definitely done several cons in the UK in years past, though I don't recall if she and Joe have ever been at the same con at the same time.

Betcha Pauly wanted to be in the middle of that Sparky sandwich just like the rest of us did.

[Sequoia Hope]

They always seem to want to separate the men and women, don't they? And who'll bet that they will put Joe and David together again? They'll keep repeating that until everybody has seen them and hears the same stories yet again. Don't they realize fandom is ready for something new?



I doubt a publicist leaked any rumors like that. I think this particular one was ship related but the proof disappeared years ago along with the haters who started it. So, before we get modded, this should probably be the end of that discussion.

Anyone who thinks they don't like each other is welcome to study this slideshow I made using KrisRussel's wonderful pics from the Marseilles con. If you want to be able to click on the little arrows and get full screen, go here. Then you can see when he reaches over and pulls her chair closer, and witness up close that the amazing chemistry between them extends to RL also without any nasty RPS vibes.

That's a lovely slideshow; thanks for sharing. Before I was a member of the GateWorld forum, I had actually stumbled across the posts regarding the 2011 convention in Marseilles while browsing past posts. I enjoyed reading all of the reports on that convention and appreciated all of the artwork and pictures. Some of my favorite photos of Joe and Torri, I downloaded, and they are currently my desktop wallpaper slideshow.

I remember watching a Q&A session with Torri on YouTube that had occurred a week before the convention, and she said that she hadn't seen Joe since she left Atlantis. That had been what... four years? From reading the past posts, looking at the pictures, and watching a couple of videos of the convention on YouTube, it definitely sounded like Joe and Torri had an amazing time together there. It's just lovely how the two friends were able to see each other again, and it's amazing how they still had such wonderful off-screen chemistry with each other after so long.

Regarding the rumors, I wasn't aware that those particular rumors had been spread around before. I can't get my head wrapped around the fact that some people actually believed so, because the way Joe and Torri interact with each other at conventions like the one in Marseilles definitely prove them wrong. But let's not discuss this any further.

Lucky for us they left Torri in the middle and we got all those great pics.

Thanks, and also thanks to all the others who commented. Also at the end when they were pretending to "die", they were making fun of a long story Pauly was telling. Very cute. I'm betting you could find some pics including him on YouTube.

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Smutty Tuesday!

True fax, dat.

[Sparky She-Demon]

Ahhh. One of my favorite days of the Sparky week!

[Southern Red]

I'm surprised that nobody came around yesterday to enjoy smutty Tuesday. Maybe we'll have a better turnout today. Surely there's something Sparky related to talk about.

I just found an article on FB about the schedule on SyFy for S1 SGA in Feb. and look at how they have manipulated this picture. There is Sparky all snuggled up together just as they should be. The PS job is terrible, but we'll take it. LOL

Yeah, where is everyone? It seems everyone has been busy as me on the last couple of days. But Sparky is always on my mind, no matter what!!!

And who says that smutty Tuesday was not enjoyed yesterday? The thing is i found this fic on the weekend http://poppydesign.org/wanderingsmit...HoldTight.html and i absolutely love it!!! (So much that i have red it twice so far!!!! ) Anyway, since i liked this fic so much i decided to check this author’ Smut fics, and oh well, what can i say!!!!! I am still in the gutter, LOL!!!!

By the way, thank you SR for the pics of that Con. I loved them!!! *squee*

Thank you for this! They sure know how to manipulate their pictures on the “right direction”!!!!

The PS job is terrible, but we'll take it. LOL

“It’s the thought that counts”!!!!

Oh has anyone red the interview with Torri here on GW that was posted yesterday? I think it is not a new one, but i had never red it before.

I was just going to post about that interview. It is a new one and interesting how consistent she is about her reason for leaving. Lots of people have tried to assign other motives and/or reasons but here it is directly from Torri.

[Sparky She-Demon]

Sorry I wasn't here for Smutty Tuesday. I've been running out of stories to link!

[Scary Kitty]

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Screw the Angst Wednesday!

Yeah, I guess everyone was busy.

Oh, now THAT is interesting! Heh, looks like there are still people in the SyFy advertising department who are Sparky fans.

Excellent! Love how the interviewer describes it as "Weir’s unceremonious exit." *snorts* And Torri's responses about S4-5 and all of that are right in line with all the other interviews she's done in the past. Her side of the story has remained the same... unlike some others'. Isn't that funny?

[Sparky She-Demon]

Remind me, what is her side of the story?
