Spoiler:Hah! Thought I was really going to do it, didn't you!
Seriously, though…I can’t believe this is # 3000…I don’t think I’ve ever done anything voluntarily 3000 times…let alone talk this much about one single topic! Anyway…I was originally going to share with you some of my favorite S/J pics, but I figure you've seen enough of my stuff lately, so I'll spare you all! I did want to say, however...thanks for letting me come here and hang out with all of you... I’ve had a blast and made some wonderful friends and its been great being able to have a group of people with which to share our shipper highs and lows and frustrations and joys, pics and fics and vids and captions and dissection every shippy scene and wearing of those magical rose-colored shippy glasses that allow us to see ship even where others might not! So thanks, shippers….you’re the best!
(((((((((((SHIPPERS)))))))))))))
Okay...I can't resist...one picture...my favorite shot of each of them...
You know...I gotta go with Kawalsky on this one...damn but they look good together!Congrats on 3000 posts WTG
Also congrats other milestoners!

I was listening to The Plain White T's and i thought that the song Hey There Delilha would be a good Sam and Jack song now that Sam is in Atlanits.
Spoiler:Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This one's for you
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.

I drank some coffee.
The headache is gone.
This is NOT good.
Spoiler:Ouch. Sounds like you're addicted, m'dear. Best wean yourself off the caffeine...
Originally posted by AstraPerAspera View PostI like your distinction of hiding feelings v. repressing them, and I think you're right about the differences between Jack and Sam on this count. I guess I wouldn't consider Sam oblivious, though...but perhaps it's just cuz I take a different view of the examples you mention. In Affinity, I don't think she was being obtuse...or insensitive...I honestly think she was giving Jack a chance to step in and stop her...to see if he still cared anything for her at all, because I still think she was convinced that he no longer felt about her the way he had when they made their confessions back in D&C.
*snip*
As for the catalyst that changed Jack's mind...well, I'm probably way off here, but I can't help notice that the last thing Sam says before Kerry interrupts them is "if I don't tell you now, I may never...." I think that word "never" is key...cuz if there's anything that would linger in Jack's thoughts it's the image "never" creates. Suddenly a future without Sam in it looks very bleak indeed. It's a huge dose of reality when he considers the ramifications of her leaving his life that way. Realizing this, IMHO, is where he makes his decision. And the opposite of "never" is "always"...which, of course, comes a few scenes later. Thankfully!
As for suffering...I think they both did...very much...in different ways. Which is why we have the Cavern of Angst, after all!
The problem with this is that most honorable guys won't say something if they think the woman is happy. They're not gonna purposely break up her relationship. And in most cases, would a woman want a man who would try to break up her relationship? No. So the whole reasoning on the woman's part is... not quite rational.
As for what changed his mind, I think you're right on. I also think that maybe, just maybe, the fact that she was showing doubts about her relationship with Pete made him think that maybe, just maybe Pete wasn't making her as happy as he, Jack could.

Originally posted by VastlySuperiorStuff View PostYes, you are probably right about that. But it's still the same- she heard rumors. Otherwise how would she know specifically about the Air Force- there are a lot of things that could be the problem. She happened to know the right one.
Originally posted by VastlySuperiorStuff View PostAw, geez.
You're so encouraging, all the time gater62. Except you're giving me a migraine with that unfinished fic of yours. Write faster, please!
I actually was looking for a short thing to write after the last two novellas I wrote, so that might be a fun one. Because I really think Jack did blow it. Like APA said about Threads- it could have been the end of the line for them. That's the only time I have ever actually been mad at Jack. (Well, that and the end of the Season 3 Episode which shall not be named.)
And I'll also second your comment on Amy's story! Please keep going.
Originally posted by VastlySuperiorStuff View PostEvidently it's a three-way tie for Queen of the gutter.
I had fun watching 2010 this afternoon. Oh, the Angst!! I picked up a lot that I hadn't on the first run, so it was pretty awesome.
The whole cabin scene is full of angst, from the moment she throws out her comment about "this being the place you were always threatening to drag me to." Without doing it consciously, she added the personal element to the conversation. Jack wanted to take Sam to the cabin... not Carter. The thing is, after 10 years, he's convinced himself that he doesn't love her anymore. He's got this mask on, he's not just hiding his feelings (as someone pointed out earlier), he's in complete denial. He's angry, but he's convinced himself that his anger is related to everyone ignoring what he said, not because she ignored what he said, because she married someone else.
That changes when she tells him that she can't have children anymore. There's a flash of emotion on his face, it's the old Jack, the one who more than anything wanted to keep Sam from being hurt. In that moment he realizes that he still loves her... and that makes him even bitterer. Even after all the ways she betrayed him, he still loves her, still hurts with her.
Despite himself though, he can't help but asking her what will happen if they succeed in sending the message back, if they make the last ten years never happen. They both know he's asking one thing: if our opinions on the Aschen hadn't driven us apart, would things have been different between us? She can't tell him what he wants to hear.
This is when he gets really mean, and I just figured out why. She's asking him to change the past with no guarantee that it'll mean changing the thing that hurt him the most. Remember what he said to Malaki in WoO? He couldn't go back and watch Charlie die again, as much as he wanted to see him one more time. Now here's Sam asking him to go back and watch her get married to another man all over again. He'd just gotten to a point where he could convince himself that he didn't care anymore, and she's asking him to relive it all over again. No wonder he got angry! Yes, he does prefer things the way they are right now--because he's put himself in a place where no one can ever hurt him again. She's asking him to give that power up, to give it back to her when she already abused it once.
Of course, we all know that he changes his mind... so what kind of thinking did he do off camera, after she left him?sigpic

I'm loving the discussions going on, but I don't have time to splash in the gutter!
OT:Spoiler:I just had my second day at my new job... it's intense! Yesterday was orientation and a Whakatau (an official welcome with the existing employees singing at us and giving speeches in Maori, Samoan and English ). Today was the first day of training... woah. After 2 weeks of intense training, 2 weeks of coaching and then another 3 months of being a noob with ongoing assessments, I will be a fully trained quitline adviser and help people with their efforts to quit smoking permanently. We spent some time on the floor observing the phone calls and chatting to the quitline advisers (my twin sister is in the 3 month noob stage).
I'm so tired. I think I'm going to love working here... everyone is awesome! And the training isn't just manuals and power point presentations either, it rocks! When we split into teams for exercises it does get a bit competitive (read: violent) though I have a skinned elbow, a deep scratch up the other arm from a table corner and carpet burn on my knees. I also seem to have pulled something in my back when I slammed into a wall as my body was twisting (we had to race across the room to hit a metal buzzer, which we broke). I think my team won that one... I hope we did.
It's awesome having a proper adult job
And not really on topic here, but I have to share it with the family! Along with Spacegirlnz and my twin sister, I managed to get one of the last 3 tickets to have dinner with Teryl in April! Only 8 tickets were available so it will be cozy We are waiting to hear if Amanda_Tapping_Fan managed to get her booking in on timeNeep, NZBG, Eileen!

And if i ever get a grey cat it's name will be Thor, no ifs or buts about it!
Hubby's cuz from down south has a dog called Bra'tac...they were gonna name him Teal'c but found it too hard to call out...and I tried it and I have to agree...Teal'c isn't easy...even though it seems so!!
My dad's chihuahua is called Sam...but it's a boy...they used to have another dog called Jack but he's up in puppy heaven...you'd be surprised how many people have Jack's and Sam's as pets names!!
If I should get a cat I'd name it Schrodinger...or Moggy!!
I have to admit however that Thor and Martouf are kinda growing on me!!!

my otness is over.

Sam and Jack...what can I say...ooh yeah...I love them to pieces!!

That was ages ago...anyway...that was the first time I heard that song...and I fell in love with it there and then...and not just because it was a Sam Carter vid but rather coz it's just a great song!!

Your training sounds most bizarre!! I hope the actual job is a lot safer than that...in my job, I get zatted daily...and sometimes the zats are so bad you can actually see the blue flash of the static electricity...and boy does it smack you.
But like yourself...I can't stay to play in the gutter either...today was excruciatingly long...and it hasn't ended yet!!!
Good night family...take care, be safe and have fun!!

Thunking? I'm not touching that with a 10-foot pole.

Good morning Ship Family! Lots of good discussion on the Kerry situation last night! Makes a nice read while waiting for kids to get ready for school.
IMO, Kerry is one smart lady. Well, she'd have to be to be heading up an investigation about the trust. I think with a combination of whispers she might have heard at the SGC (really, I think there must have been an airman or two that would make sure to say something where she would overhear) plus what she saw on the porch at Jack's. The tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife.
Have a good day Shippers!sigpicThank you Astra Per Aspera for the sig....... My Fan Fiction
