McKay and Keller

[Killdeer]

Oh lord, there's a freaking term for the misinterpretation now. WaaaaAAA.

I'm not quite sure why people are getting so upset about the idea. And why are you so sure it's misinterpretation? Jewel said herself that her character is a "bit of a flirt." Jason has apparently said that Ronon and Keller don't get together, that "she goes off with someone else." I'd say the field is wide open for interpretation right now, however you want to look at it.

Its easy to do as any ship involving Rodney has the first letters "Mc" then the name of the other person.

eg

McWeir
McTeyla
McSheppard

And I miss the days when fans didn't need everything explained to them like they're 5 year olds.

Oh wait, those days never existed.

I love a bit of ambiguity. If they didn't make eye contact for a few episodes or were really angry at each other for no apparent reason, hmm...
I just prefer not having to go to a blog to read 'Oh, that scene would have explained everything but we didn't have time' or somesuch to explain something about an episode. To be honest, I've been to that blog once and haven't gone back. The episodes themselves guide the fan, not what the producer says.
Hence my BAMSR problems... but that's another story.

That's a minority opinion as she keeps being referred to as a slut in this thread. She's not but efforts to alter that line of discussion keep failing. I think it's unfair and offensive but it certainly won't stop the bashers.

Just because somebody calls somebody else a slut doesn't mean they're bashers. Sheppard is a ManWhore if there ever was one and he's one of my favorites. I say as long as she's got that perky body she should slut around to whomever she can.

I'm going to wait and see if anything does actually happen between these two, but I think it has the potential to be one of the best 'couplings' on the show.

When compared with the relatively well-liked Sheppard and the almost raging hatred I've seen for Keller "replacing" Carson it doesn't quite have the same ring as a harmless or in-jest comment but another slight against her.

It certainly looked like one of the most natural and least forced potential relationship in the show for a good long while.

He would have chopped her for sure, she was bang up for it.
Silly shippers

Only if he's sleeping with the women he's flirty with. Otherwise, he''s just a flirt. Same with Keller, she's not a slut unless she's actually sleeping around.

I've read it - I'm not sure what you're getting at. He also said that Keller was single after the events of Quarantine. In my mind, that means that neither ship is canon right now, so why can't people interpret it however they choose?

90% of the ships people come up with aren't canon.

I'd agree with that. I don't believe Atlantis has a canon 'ship right now, since Rodney/Katie is over.
