Daniel Jackson/Vala Mal Doran Ship/Discussion/Appreciation Thread
I'm at school and it never lets me quote here so will have to play catch up later.
Dropping off a fic link. Beta'd by Kales (Kales I will credit you on the fic when I get home and have a faster comp)
Unending spoilers...sorry people who have not seen Unending, but you aren't missing out on anything. I promise. I'm new to this ship writing so I'm a baby Dala writer. Its just baby gibberish.
I viewed and commented I love the colours and what you've done with the background, and you can't go wrong with purple I need to tinker with mine a bit more.

I can see how you would get confused if you didn't know they'd been involved before they were on the Enterprise. Long time Trek fan here, was a Trekkie long before I was a Gater!
Yeah, I just sat there and wondered why he was telling her this Of course, then I looked it up online and found out that they later got married.
Question: In my continuing effort to get knowledgeable on all things Sci-Fi, I'm thinking that maybe I should watch at least some of a Star Trek. Is there one series (aside from the original) that you guys would recommend? I'm not particularly fond of "Deep Space Nine" from what I've seen....so maybe not that.
I was thinking more along the lines of having Daniel being the lowly one and Vala being all high and mighty. But things can be changed when I actually think about it properly
Do you have an LJ so I can credit you properly?
That is much better than my idea. He can be the rogue, and she can be the stubborn lady who is unimpressed by his vagabond ways. Wait....I need to stop this!!
Now I'm thinking about writing Vala and Daniel in some sort of historical romance. Oh gosh, I can only imagine how that would go
Here's the link to my LIVERJOURNAL. My user name is "scifi-tv-addict."
James Purefoy.... *Drools* I had such a thing for him after that film!
If you're not going to read SF they might as well let you read fantasy at least! Probably because that would be to obvious for a feminist class, and you so should watch Voyager. After all, it's not often the captain turns into a lizard and mates with a crew member.
Wait, wait....is "Voyager" with Janeway? I always get them confused. But the whole lizard-mating thing sounds like fun
James Purefoy....yeah....love him. "What a pair we make. Both trying to hide who we are, both unable to do so......something, something.....but that's knightly too." *sigh* I love him. He was also in the poor adaptation of Vanity Fair (and is currently starring in HBO's Rome). Wasn't a fan of that movie, but my God, he looks soooooooooo delicious in those black militia outfits!
Oh thank god we weren't the only ones. We watched the credits, twice, to find out who he was. Then imdb'ed him, because we didn't remember the name he pretended to be.
Small part but so droolable. Still, I preferred naked Paul Bettany. And Paul Bettany just... speaking. Being funny.
Yes, I do enjoy a naked Paul Bettany! But James Purefoy has that great outfit and was called the "dark prince" or something to that effect. I also liked Alan Tudyk "Your entrails will be your extrails......Pain! Lots of pain!"
Ok, here's my ships, and some of them I don't necessarily want them canon, I just love reading about them in fanfic, seeing pictures and manips etc, and just having fun with the ship
Star Wars: - Han & Leia, probably my first ship!
Ditto on that I LOVED/LOVE Han/Leia. They are pretty much my template for judging onscreen relationships
Kath, DV trashy romance. Are you making it a Barbara Cartland romance I read one of them once
OMG, Barabara Cartland. I think my roommate made me watch the movie versions of some of her books. Oh dear. It was painful....yet surprisingly funny (and a really bad way). I actually asked my friend, who loved this movie, if the main guy was the heroine's cousin and she was like "no" but then it turned out he was. She got really upset. She was like "No.....no.....NOOOOO!!!" And she never watched it again. Ha!
Yay! I like I changed my layout as well, thanks to help from the wonderful Shes
Okay, time to watch The Wedding Planner for my Rom-Com class and then study for my Cog. Psych. exam tomorrow.
Oh, and I got a 100% on my short story for my SF class! Yay! Of course, I still don't feel like it's good enough, so I might sit down one of these days and revise it some more...so that when I die, my surviving relatives can publish it

I personally like Next Generation the best. But my Dad, who loves, loves, loves Star Trek would probably recommend either Voyager or Enterprise!!

Congrats Stef!!! You shouldn't be so hard on yourself
Well I finally gave in to the voice in my head telling me to stop lurking and join. It's isabelqc on FF.net/ hariboo_smirks over at LJ, for those who I have already started a rapport with . And at the moment I offer only the link to my FF.net account and my LJ where all my fanfiction is to be found.

Sigh...tired of chemistry...wish MS taught it...would be much more interesting.
Yay! You posted it! And don't worry about the credit. Will go RnR in a minute.
And you can't have him, lol, he's teaching Medieval history at my university so I don't get bored
Stef, he was called the Black Prince: the prince of Wales at that time, he tended to wear black armour in battle so his men knew who he was --- or so my friend told me
ISABELQC!!!!! You joined! Yay! You're going to love it here, I swear *is v.happy*
oh and... Tonight's Domino Motion. Pure fluff, everyone, but it's a decent length. I wanted a break from the plot for a little while. Enjoy:

Yeah, I think I was debating between either TNG or Voyager. I'm kind of steering away from Enterprise because I heard it was the "weakest link" so to speak.
You guys should have heard me and my friend in sf class today. Everyone was attacking TNG episode, but we refused to let them and basically had a rebuttle for everything they said. He He. Sounded like we were big ST fans.
So...yay!!! The teacher let us out of the movie showing tonight. Of course this means that I now have every excuse in the world to study properly for this exam And I still have to write a film v book analysis of The Chronicles of Narnia. Blah, blah, blah.
Yeah, I'm very sensitive about my writing, especially my creative writing. I just never feel like it's good enough. I don't know why I'm so sensitive to that particular outlet of expression. Probably because I'm a stronger artist than a writer.
I'm actually in the process of writing my own little spin-off story to SG-1. Like, what the third series could be like. It basically starts with this new team that goes to some other galaxy or something and manages to get stranded, without any way of getting back to Earth (even worse than SGA in the first season). They basically have to survive on whatever they can find in the planet/galaxy they're stuck in. I really wanted to get away from the SGC and just see how they would interact in this entirely new environment, with no touchstones to home (and no pre-made city to go to).
Most of the stuff I'm writing right now stems from the two leads' relationship with one another. Let's just say that they were married and it didn't end well. Plus, she's kind of a stubborn screw-up. Think a less-annoying Starbuck from BSG but mix in some O'Neill humor. Of course, right now it seems to be mostly just them bickering with each other I keep coming up with dialogue but I'm lacking an actual story!!
Oh...this thread is about DV, right? Let's see......
