Oh, curses. I'm going away later today for a long weekend at a folk festival in Oxford, which I've been looking forward to a lot both because Oxford is a place with many happy memories, and because my two favourite bands will be playing there. So what happens? I wake up at 4, shivering, hot/cold and sniffly. Grr!

I was in the middle of a strange Shep whumpy dream at the time. (cut for weirdness and wordiness)

Spoiler:

Anyway, despite feeling ill, I'll still be going to Oxford later. Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Ooops.

Sorry. I will watch it again! Honest!

Well Rising...our first ever stunning

Was a good one actually because it was an unexpected one from behind

There wasnt a terrible amount of physical whump in this episode was there? But at least we got some! Had emotional whumpage of course

I am trying to think where extra whump could have been added....anyone else got any thoughts?

Well, in Rising, I thought Shep could have got into more difficulty when fighting the wraith queen towards the end. Maybe he could have been speared through the leg with the end of the big wraith stunner, but managed to grab it off the queen and then stab her? Ok, so that's a little unlikely, but I'm looking for whump possibilties here! He'd have been all woozy and finding it difficult to run back to the Jumper, and then he'd have fought to control the ship and fight off the darts and get back to Atlantis without losing consciousness. That would have been cool. He'd have been hobbling around on crutches in the last scenes.

The only other whump is the emo whump as SheppyD said. I mean there was some talk on the audio commentary about what Shep had had to do. I think that could have been played a little more really. Shep and Weir never exactly talked about it openly, more in passing.

Other than that? Well, when he returns to Atlantis with dirt on his face after bringing the Athosians back, maybe he could have had a cut on his cheek too? I mean falling on the ground could mean twig whump, right?

Some piccies I love from Rising which are spoilered for size:

Spoiler:

I think my slight fever explains the strangeness of my dream, and the squirrels. I was thinking just the other day that I'd like to see an episode from Chuck's POV. Atlantis would be facing dreadful peril, and we'd keep seeing our heroic team racing around in the background, bleeding, desperate, dragging wounded team-mates, saving the world, but the focus would be on Chuck having a personal small life-and-death drama of his own. (And, yes, this is totally inspired by a Buffy episode, The Zeppo.)

As for Rising... I'm away this weekend, so won't be able to join in the group watch-and-talk, but here's one thought. What about Shep having a worse landing in the helicopter at the start? (further rambling behind cut)

Spoiler:

That was a good addition to the possible whump.

What I thought of was when Shep slid down the hill while walking with Teyla. He could have twisted his ankle or knee. He would have had a limp for a good bit of the rest of the show and we would have gotten to see him limping through the rescue but determined to save his people.

**Ruffles** · 11 April 2008, 04:44 AM

Rising had several almost-whumps - the drone and the helicopter, exploring Atlantis, falling down the hill, the Wraith attack on Athos, getting captured and interrogated by The Keeper.

I think he should have sustained some injuries in the Wraith attack. People were screaming, tents were burning, etc. Some of the dart debris could have hit him causing all sorts of bleeding head wounds, wooziness and heroic staggering. And The Keeper should have given him a good backhand for his insolence.

I'm off for now. Jury duty calls. Yea.

**SanGate** · 11 April 2008, 05:56 AM

I just watched Rising Wednesday. Convinced my dad to start watching all over again, so you guys have a great timing!

I did see a small cut on his face in the end though. Yes, really. A small cut from all the burning bushes and exploding darts, creepy wraith Keeper and everything. I would have liked some more cuts on the face, and especially on the arms! I like his arms being all scratched up

And now I think about it, that Keeper was very nice on him wasn't she. She could have done some real damage with those fingernails to his face

What a missed whump opportunity.. Wow, thinking about this really carries me away now, doesn't it.

Be still my beating heart.....

**prion** · 11 April 2008, 08:55 AM

Eek, second page?! This will not do!

So, anybody read any good whumping fic lately? There's a cute story in which virtually the entire team gets whumped by ... household appliances (oh, the shame), over at LJ at the http://community.livejournal.com/sga_genficathon/ genficathon.

Ooh, and 'Brute Science' at http://community.livejournal.com/sheppard_hc/ is finished! Haven't read it yet as I can only read so many stories at the same time and have been having a ball withl T'Pring's post-OUTCAST story "Blooder is Thicker" in which yes, Shep is whumped and only one person can save him...

I just think with all of that darkness, he should have stumbled and tripped far more often, someone should have stolen his night vision goggles and thne he would have been stuffed

Thanks for the links, someone mentioned that appliance fic and I meant to go look for it but I am uselss if someone doesn't shove a link uner my nose I forget to go looking for it

I am so lazy.

Wow all this potential whump has got me all squeeful

I need to go watch rising with all these comments in mind, should make for interesting watching.

I am so tired, been to the gym after work.... ok when I say been to the gym, thats not strictly true, I went for a nice long swim in the pool which was legitimate exercise, then wandered into the sauna and then finally relaxed in the spa..... *sigh* its a tough life

I'll second the rec to "Blood is Thicker" by T'Pring very well done and the updates were very fast. Here's the link

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4138921/1/Blood_is_Thicker

Brute Science was oddly not my cup of tea but I think many will enjoy.

I think after April 21, there should be a master list with writer and fic on the genficathon which will make it a bit easier for the whumpers to pick out what they'd like to read if they only want to digest the h/c stuff. Since it'll be easier to ID the type of story based on who wrote it.

There's also a nice list of older fics on this thread being rec'ed by those who enjoy John suffering really bad headaches, which is a favorite of mine.

http://community.livejournal.com/she...hc/179755.html

Okay back to writing. Beth and I hit the 65,000 word mark. Eeeek.

He could have landed on a protruding root or something here! He threw himself down without looking and could quite easily have ended up with something impaled in his stomach

Spoiler:

And this one is just so adorable with his little scratch

I hope somebody has a cap of Shep being held down with the Wraith Queen, I haven't got one but that scene sure has possiblities

Never mind landing on them he could have tripped over the protruding branch and then have to hobble heroically back to the gate

- we wouldn't want him too injured straight away or there would be no chance for extra whump when the queen gets him. That’s where there should have been extra whump I mean he didn't even end up on his knees

that just wrong….

Nice pictures always room for a dirty Shep *looks innocent*

What about missed whump opportunity at the beginning of the story in Antarctica, the helicopter had to make a emergency landing perhaps the helicopter could have been damaged so shep was stuck on the ice for a while.

There is very good story set between the outpost and leaving the SGC by pfyre (which I shall have to go and recommend on Sheppard_HC as it involves headaches) about dealing with ancient equipment for the first time, that could have been missed whump.

Blood is thicker I am loving - but I have to agree with Kirsten there was something about Brute Science that made me very uncomfortable, it is a very well written story though so do check it out.

Rhymer Nice dream

**Ruffles** · 11 April 2008, 12:54 PM

It's so quiet. Has everyone whumped themselves into oblivion or did the weekend start early?

I have decided I am quite partial to the dirty, scruffy look.

But the woozy look is good too.

S4

Spoiler:

But all tied-up....

S4

Spoiler:

*sigh* So much whump. So little time.
