Originally posted by Ikorni View PostI think by this time, they'd invested too much into the storyline not to take it further.

Originally posted by Samantha-Carter-is-my-muse View Post*phew* I'm glad Amanda didn't want Sam to get engaged to Pete
Well, they'd invested 7 years in the Sam/Jack storyline without taking it further - weren't TPTB a little bit impatient in regards to the storyline?

I was looking in that file within the past week for something, and a few days later when I went to look for something again, the entire folder was just gone. I didn't delete it, so I have no idea what happened. I even looked in the 'recycle bin' and it wasn't there, and I haven't cleaned that out in quite awhile. I checked other folders to see if I had somehow accidentally moved it into one of them, but is nowhere to be found. I had some really good photos in there.
So I'm now attempting to recreate it by saving copies of any pictures I can find.

HI Guys
Just a little note. When you make your artwork for ship day, let's please remember to keep it tasteful. Tasteful, I know is hard to define, but think of it this way....if you were Amanda or Rick, and you were drawn as they are portrayed in a piece of artwork.....would you be comfortable with it?
I'm not talking to or about any singular person, the concern has been raised, and we can see their point. So we simply ask artists that post work here to keep 'tasteful' in mind when they post their work.
Thanks

I got a Fic Challenge for you folks:
1) Sam and Jack meet for the first time in the story.
2) They are both engaged to other people.
3) They secretly (without significant others) take dance lessons at the same studio, preparing for upcoming ceremonies.
4) The phrase ‘The dancing doesn’t lie’ must be used.
5) Ending is up to writer’s discretion.
6) Must be written in third person.

But Lost City obviously showed how incongruous this was and S8 merely ended up as a let down for me.
But yeah, I totally agree about how badly TPTB handled Sam's relationship. Heck, her entire love life really, with season 7/8 being the worst, although the whole Orlin thing kinda bothered me too. But I always try to find some kind of explanation for the characters since a couple of my fics are set in season 7/8 and deal with the S/P and S/J relationships, so I need to explore everything for them to have an in-story 'justification'...Unmade Plans (WIP: 11/20):
Sam's life takes a turn in an unexpected direction when she's faced with an unplanned pregnancy. The decision to keep the baby and raise it on her own will alter her life forever. Relationships are put to the test, especially the one between her and Jack. She doesn't know what to expect from him and he surprises her at every turn.
On FFnet or AO3
My S/J fics can be found on FFnet and AO3. I also tweet and tumble about the ship and my writing/stories.
