In my personal opinion, it's one of the best 'child' fics that I've read...so far.Last edited by Major_Moomin; 07 March 2006, 01:27 AM.hh
Torri Higginson on Elizabeth Weir: "She likes to pilfer things from all the little neigbouring planets; That's cute, carve me one now!"
LEADERSHIP: Why fix what ain't broke? Save Elizabeth Weir
Keep Elizabeth Weir as a REGULAR!

Originally posted by MelyannaYeah, it's not my vid. I'm flattered, though, to be confused with Hatch, as his vids are much better than mine.
I'm thinking I ought to vid another song from that album, to go for the hat trick. Maybe Swallowed in the Sea, one of my other favorites.
a time to mourn

Hmmmm...Something brought up over on the 'Shep' thread...
Would it bother you guys or alter your view of this ship in some way if Elizabeth were say a couple/few years older than John? I just noticed some of them saying that they felt that Weir was a little older than Shep (perhaps due to her Atlantis assignment) and while we know Torri is in reality younger than Joe is, we're simply not 'sure' on the ages of the characters. I've always looked at them as being 'about' the same age (as they are in RL). John is a Colonel and honestly, most of those are at least in their 40s that I've been aware of. But you know, I don't think I'd mind a bit and actually, I might like it even better in some ways if John were supposed to be a little behind Elizabeth. I'll have to ponder on it.

Originally posted by Major_MoominWell my sister-in-law is 8 years older than my brother. They're married and have a 5 month old son. Goes to show that age is just a number...
I've noticed a lot of brave souls posting over on the Sheppard Discussion and Appreciation thread which seems to be in a bit of an uproar. I'm going to continue checking in over there. That seems like a place TPTB could go to see what the fans think about him. Hopefully the good points can be emphasized with intelligent discussion of things we'd like to see changed without anyone thinking we hate him. Some minds are closed, but I have high hopes that common sense will rule. I know I'm a cockeyed optimist.
The whole age thing just sounds like the "anybody but Weir" bandwagon to me.

Sally, we need to start bugging certain people...
Hmm, this is rather off topic so how 'bout I post this:
~La (I used to be a lurker, but this place just sucks you in...)
The Nameless Forest. Also, my LJ, where you can find my fic attempts.

The writers took Shep down a weird path the back half of the season and I'm not going to go along with it just because he is HOT looking. I don't dislike the character, I just don't like some of his behavior recently and I'll vent about it all I want.

Originally posted by Southern RedOh and a bit of info for any fic writers who want to have John an Academy grad. You need a Congressional appointment for that. It's a long arduous process. You don't just enroll like in a normal college. Good plot bunny there actually.
On a different and somewhat surprising note, there are new spoilers out for Sateda. This episode looks to be a bit weird, but I think I'll reserve judgment until I've read the sides for myself.Mirror, Mirror: Melyanna's multi-fandom fic site
