John Sheppard/Teyla Emmagan Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread
Gater, you are killing me! first Nancy, Now Conlin....These two have to end up together...Gosh, if I was Teyla I would have slapped the crap out of him...Yeah, yeah, I know but still I would have slapped the crap out of him!

I'm so not liking this Conlin chick! LOL!. Well if it helps Teyla and John come to there senses, then i guess i can except her for a while! LOL!. You are sooo going to give me a heart attack with this fic!.
Oh goodness, I hope I don't! That's me a reader down LOL!
Thanks for reading... Angst? Pffft, that was fluff!
Elizabeth smiled wickedly at them. “My, I wasn’t expecting on ever seeing you again.”
“We were going to say the same about you,” John said, taking in the appearance of his former friend. Despite the time that had passed, Elizabeth looked no older than the day they lost her on the Replicator home world.
“What are you doing here? I mean, you’re obviously not the Elizabeth from Atlantis. Where are the other Replicators?” Rodney asked, still in disbelief.
A breeze caressed her face, whispering the secrets John and Rodney wanted to hear. She studied them for a second before answering. “I am the Elizabeth Weir that you knew thirty years ago. I am what you made me, Rodney,” she said maliciously. “Not quite human, not quite Replicator.”
She turned her gaze to John. “As to my comrades, they decided now that they have nearly conquered Earth, I am no further use to them. They left me here weeks ago.”
“Weeks?” John asked disbelievingly. “Were they planning on coming back?”
Her bitter laugh chilled him. “No. They were going to leave me here, just like you abandoned me,” she said, her voice full of contempt.
“You told us to leave,” Ronon replied, angered by her resentment. "Sheppard was just following your orders."
She whipped to face him. “I told you to leave. Not to never come back.”
Rodney and John looked at each other. For months, the guilt of leaving Elizabeth behind weighed heavily on them. Even after thirty years, the ache of not being able to save her was still fresh in their souls.
“Elizabeth, you know--”
Before John finished speaking, Elizabeth began convulsing and fell to the ground. Her eyes rolled in the back of her head. Instinctively, John started to go down to help his former friend.
“Don’t!” all three men yelled.
“Those nanites would infect you in seconds,” Rodney warned.
They watched helplessly as she trembled for a few seconds longer. Ronon looked at Sheppard. “What should we do?”
Jason saw the haunted look in his father’s eyes. Sadly, it was a look he was familiar with; he wore it every time one more person he cared about was lost to the Replicators. This was more painful in some ways, he knew, because Elizabeth had been the first casualty in the war. Now his father was watching her suffer under the power of the Replicators again.
John swallowed hard before answering, “Nothing. Let’s go.”
All four of them turned away before they heard a desperate whisper, “Rodney…John…help me.”
Instantly they recognized the change in her tone of voice. This was the Elizabeth they knew. Rodney ran to her side. “Elizabeth,” he breathed.
The seizing had stopped, but her eyes were dilated, looking wild. She focused on nothing, seemingly oblivious to where the men were standing. “Help me. Change. The. Base. Code.” Her voice was shaking. They could see her struggling to keep control.
Sheppard looked at Rodney. “Can you do it?”
After thinking for a moment, Rodney finally shook his head. “No. I could temporarily change it, but I have no idea how long it would take for the nanites to rewrite it. For the change to be permanent, I need her in my lab.”
Jason could almost see his father’s thoughts, weighing out the pros and the cons. Before John could make a decision, Jason spoke up, “I think it is worth the risk, father.”
Three pairs of surprised eyes looked at him. “You do?”
Full of confidence, Jason nodded. “Who would be better to assist us in our fight against the Replicators? Colonel Carter and Doctor McKay are nearly finished in their reconfigurations of the drones. I believe she will be able to further assist us once Doctor McKay can rewrite the base code.”
John thought for a moment before nodding, “All right, McKay, do it. But if you sense the slightest feeling that something is wrong, we’re out of here.”
Rodney nodded as he began working on his tablet. “Don’t worry, Elizabeth, we’re going to take you back home,” he promised.
Ronon walked next to Jason. “I don’t like this. She could lead the Replicators to Atlantis if McKay screws up.”
Jason froze as he stopped to consider the possible repercussions. Atlantis was a mere shell of what it was thirty years ago when it had been rediscovered from the people from Earth. Constant repairs were barely enough to keep the base in livable condition. Still, despite the poor state it was in, Jason would do everything in his power to keep it safe. It was his home; no Replicator would ever destroy it.
Before he could question himself, John spoke up. “Jason’s right,” John defended. “She has insight into the inner workings of the Replicators. Hell, we might even have a fighting chance of surviving this whole thing.”
After a few minutes, McKay looked up. “We’re set. I don’t know how much time we have do we need to get back to Atlantis quickly.”
Two hours later, the arrived back on Atlantis. Ronon escorted Elizabeth with Rodney down to his lab while John and Jason went up to the control room. A somber Teyla greeted them.
“What’s wrong?” John asked concern in his voice.
To his surprise, her eyes began watering up. “It is the Replicators. Soon after you left, Doctor Zelenka discovered four war ships entering sensor range. They have found us.”
Ahhh...the angst

Hey guys, not sure if this has been posted or not but i got the TVGuide today and it had a little summary of episodes to come and
Spoiler:
most of what it said we know like Carson coming back, Micheal and his wraith-human hybrids experiments and also mentioning John's Ex-Wife appearing in an episode. But the part i thought was interesting at least i hadn't read before is the mention of the last episode. This is exactly what it says "But all this could change if the "It's a Wonderful Life" cliff-hanger finale holds true. Through a time anomaly, Sheppard winds up 10,000 years in the future and finds both a solar-blasted Earth and a hologram of Dr. McKay which lets him know how life changed after he went missing on a mission."
So we knew it would be a future episode but i didn't know about a hologram McKay and how we will see how life has changed since John had gone missing. Could have some very interesting and angsty stuff to this episode!!!.
