Yes, it's me with the shippy picture stories! Thanks, I have fun with those. I'll have to think of something soon. Right now I'm reading Amy Sithen's The Band. Set in Season 9. Sam and Jack romance. My favorite!!!
Could you post a link Nell ? I couldn't find it on ff.net , heliopolis or GW. Thanks
I've posted in installments before but I had the whole series plotted out before I posted the first one. I also made sure, with one exception, the series could end happily if I had to stop but still left the reader wanting more.
And the readers want more and more and more and more!!!!! !
speaking of works in progress and long updates/abandonment "alternate politics" on ff.net better get updated again soon, because the newest one made me all at then end of the chapter.
devastated.
This is why I'm now waiting for the fic to be completed before I start reading it again!
Maybe that's why Sam stayed with Pete so long. Subconsciously, she was using him as an experiment; when he survived she knew that she was cured and that she could have a relationship with Jack without him dying.
LOL! I never understood the "Black Widow" curse, mainly because I can never come up with more than two or three guys that she's been with who later died. Off the top of my head, Martouf, Jonas (that was mentioned here...)... Who else? I haven't seen '2001' yet. I've only just watched 'Entity' on my dvds (more on that later...)
OT I have a couple of friends who are slashers, and think that Janet died because of the Black Widow curse. They even brought it up to Teryl at a con (I wasn't there so I couldn't see the reaction). Teryl agreed!
Well, about the Black Widow curse, nearly every man who were interested in Sam died. First there was Jonas, then Martouf, Orlin, Narrim, Joe. Lieutenant Simmons nearly died too in Message in a bottle.
The only two who didn't die are Pete and Jack, though Pete was seriously injured by Osiris/Sarah and Jack died once but always came back.
Just a reminder my bday this year is 6TH 6TH 2006!!
I know i havent been around for awhile, but any of u guys are in Aust on the 3rd of June come and gatecrash!!
Thank you to everyone who told me I had to watch 'Entity'! It made me cry! When Janet told Jack that Sam had a living will, that "no extraordinary measures" be taken, that only the machines were keeping her alive; and suggested that it was time to let her go, I just started sobbing! And I knew full well that Sam was not going to die! (yes, I know I'm a sap. Sue me!)
That said, I don't think that there can be any doubt that Hammond knows exaxctly how Jack feels about her. Just after Daniel suggested trying to convince the entity to leave Sam, Hammond told Jack that difficult choices had to be made (ie, perhaps having to kill Sam). He told Jack he knew how much Sam meant to him. Jack made a quick comment about her being an important member of his team, and Hammond agreed with that; but I got the feeling that's not what Hammond was getting at. He quickly dropped the subject... because he knew that any admission on Jack's part at that point would mean that he had to be "officially" aware of the relationship between the two?
Also, the entity made a point of saying that it chose to inhabit Sam because it knew that Jack would not "terminate" her. It stressed that point, to Jack and to everyone else; it knew that none of them would terminate her, but especially Jack.
Which makes me think. Either something *very* interesting happened between Jack and Sam while the entity was observing them, or there's a rather incrinating document buried somewhere within the base computer system. Remember, this is after the Zatarc incident. Jack no longer calls her 'Sam'. It's always 'Carter'. They are now making sure there's nothing in their behaviour that could incriminate them. So what did the entity observe to draw its conclusion?
Phew, long post. btw, Vicky, don't recognise it from 'Broca Divide'. But then, I never really found that scene particulaly shippy (except the "Not like this!" and the bit where it looks as though he kissed her neck!)
Have not seen 'Entity' for a long time, after reading your post hopalong I want to have another look.
I agree with your comment about Hammond, he definitely knows how Jack feels about Sam, i've noticed it in other episodes too, Grace comes to mind.
Did anyone like my Vid? or was it terrible, I can take it.
