    Ok folks, hit me with unusual names for kids that wouldn't be out of place in the Potter-verse.

    Long before you and I were born, others beat these benches with their empty cups,
    To the night and its stars, to the here and now with who we are.

    Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
    And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.

        I'm tempted to throw in a "Justin Case".

            If you're going that route, how about
            Tremaine Calm

              Even better than Tremaine Calm--Tremaine Young.

                I've heard it variously as getting "frocked up" and "getting a step".
                As far as I know frocking is asuming your new rank ASAP without receiving the higher pay for the current month (that will happen when the soldier/airman/sailor/marine etc. is payed the next time!) and I've heard that this needs to be approved (so if it isn't you will asume your new rank next month!)

                I've heard it being refered to as climbing another step on the ladder (just like a promotion in civilian life)

                    I have one for a dog, which is the actual name a Whovian friend of mine decided their new dog: Albus Dumbledog.

                      Hey guys,

                      was it ever specified what information Jolinar wanted to give to the other Tok'ra (information that made sending an Ashrak after her necessary in the eyes of the systemlords can't be anything trivial because I bet Ashraks demand pay...hell, even if they work directly for one systemlord or another: They surely don't grow on trees!)?

                      If not: Any ideas what it could be? (I am still, after years, doing my Tok'ra story where Jolinar hops into Jack and survives and thus I need that information because I am coming up empty!)

                      greetings LAX

                        Near as I can tell, she never had any intel. She was hunted by the Ashrak because she was one of the more successful Tok'ra in her endeavors against the Goa'uld.

                          Perhaps it was intel on Sokar, since she escaped his hellhole.

                            Do we have such a thing as a dedicated thread where one can post an idea one has for a fic, and get feedback on it?

                            Along the lines of "Would you read this?", "Do you think it's sufficiently interesting to you to continue with?"

                              I don't think we have that. There's the adopt-afic-bunny but that's not the same.
                              Start one!
