*guiltily opens up word document, writes Teyla/Lorne PG comfort fic*

• Todd is one of the best things the SGA writers've ever done, in my opinion. He's 3-dimensional and absolutely hysterical and way more endearing than any mostly-evil character has a right to be. I think he's fast becoming one of my favorite characters, hands down. Point:
  

  Mel: OH NO DID TODD DIE?! TODDDDDDD
  Julie: NOOOO
  Mel: TOOOOODDDDDDD
  Julie: TOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD ;_;
  
  Mel: OH WHAT DID HE DO
  Julie: I DONT KNOW
  Julie: something
  Mel: he's so sneaky
  Mel: GASP
  Julie: OOOO
  Mel: GASP
  Julie: OH TODD
  
  Mel: TODDDD
  Mel: TODDDD
  Mel: omg
  Julie: ;_;
  Mel: don't kill todd
  
  Mel: AHAHAHA TODD
  Julie: *cackles*
  Mel: HE IS THE BEST WRAITH EVER
  Julie: HE IS
  Mel: todd + rodney = bff

  I think I need a Todd icon.
  
  
• JOHN. John in this episode, oh John. I don't even have words for John. I think this episode could possibly spark Volume II of amberlynne's smartface picspam. His glorious little expression when they saw the chamber! It was, in Julie's words, "ew, girls!" one hundred fold. And when Queenie went directly for Rodney! EPIC LOVE EPIC LOVE! j;foaklgawmf;jo
  
  
• Gem of the episode: Rodney got lost in a garden maze running away from a bee. Oh, Rodney.
  
  
• I'm not even going to get into the whole Teyla storyline because then I will end up babbling on and on about her scene with Lorne and his sweet, low-voiced comfort, or I will end up babbling on about John's AWKWARD HUG and we will never finish this post ever oh my god BOYS ON THIS SHOW STOP KILLING ME.

Thoughts?

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

JULIE. his face. D: i can't deal.

[kashmir1.livejournal.com]

ME EITHER.

OR LORNE. OMFG LORNE.

Please write me fic where Teyla falls in love with Lorne and they raise a bunch of fat babies together!

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

I CANNOT PROMISE THE FAT BABIES but i will write fic in which teyla goes to lorne for comfort when she realizes john is a horrible hugger.

[kashmir1.livejournal.com]

MEL. I have needs for fat babies. GOD WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME.

*pokes girly parts*

IMAGINE JOHN BOUNCING ONE ON HIS KNEE. and then the look of horror on his face when it spits up on him. and rodney smugly saying, "i told you that you were bouncing him too hard, but did you listen? oh no, of course not."

OMG DUN MEL. My ovaries are going to start a revolution.

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

i am not making the obvious joke here. i hope you're grateful.

[kashmir1.livejournal.com]

Go for it. lol

I highlighted alot of my thoughts in my ep review, but I wanted to specifically point out the Todd naming scene--

He named him after a pale guy he knew from college? Seriously, John just named the Wraith after his old college boyfriend. You know that, right?

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

this is just one more in a long list of reasons why john is a huge gay. <3

[kimberlyfdr.livejournal.com]

And next week we get emotional repression John Sheppard style. Everyone else is stuck together and probably having deep conversations of emotions and bonding. John would rather throw himself out of a window than submit himself to the torture of that.

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

now, now, let's not jump to conclusions. maybe he's just...feeling buggy. that day.

[kimberlyfdr.livejournal.com]

If he would turn into BugJohn, I would have no qualms about it. I don't know why blue skin is so appealing on that man, but I like him ALOT.

Lorne and his sweet, low-voiced comfort

Word.

LOVE. <3

I REALLY WANT TO READ THAT RODNEY-LOST-IN-A-GARDEN/RODNEY TELLING JOHN ABOUT IT FIC, AS EVIDENCED BY THE FACT THAT I TOLD MY DAD AS MUCH since he was totally inexplicably watching with me! ALSO I LOVE TODD. I kept saying that to my dad, too. (If my dad hadn't been there, I would have told the room.) I am glad that they finally named him. I want to read about John's friend Todd from college who was really pale BECAUSE THAT IS TOTALLY JOHN'S EXPLORATORY GAY GAY GAY COLLEGE PHASE WAITING TO BE TOLD KTHX. Also-- really pale? Was he also really green and evil, John?

So basically, I would say, on the minus side, there was not nearly as much John and Rodney interacting one on one as I would have liked (because if they had a whole ep of just John and Rodney? I would still watch) but I did like John's series of discussions with Teyla-- especially how after he was all "This is really about your people being missing and you wanting to kick ass, but you can't" he sort of made this face of "Wow, I can't believe I actually just said that really true and painful emotional thing. That never happens."IT WAS GLORIOUS. WASN'T IT GLORIOUS, MEL?

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

IT WAS GLORIOUS IN THE WAY THAT CHOCOLATE FROSTING IS GLORIOUS.

i don't even have WORDS, mon. teeaaaaaaam.

[crazyace86.livejournal.com]

These last few episodes, I've totally shipped Rodney and Todd for, like, a nanosecond each time. XD

Todd = Awesome.

Oh, and Ronon! Ha ha, Ronon and Rodney's interaction always cracks me up. Those two are like constantly squabbling siblings. (Poor John gets to babysit, lol.) And of course Teyla will be a good mother-- she's had plenty of practice. ;D

And Lorne? Glompable. Love him.

Gem of the episode: Rodney got lost in a garden maze running away from a bee. Oh, Rodney.

DESIRE TO SKIP TO SEASON FOUR: RISING.

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAH BE STRONG! THE OTHER SEASONS ARE GOOD TOO! Especially season three, homg.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

TODD! I am so very, very fond of Todd. And his fellow-Todd, the dude in the back room at Babylon in Queer as Folk. AND JOHN SHEPPARD'S COLLEGE BOYFRIEND. Oh shooooow.

Lorne's conversation with Teyla was, I think, the best part of the episode. Kavan is such a lovely, lovely actor, I hope they continue to give him real dialogue instead of just making him point guns at things! (Even if he is sometimes barefoot and hysterical while doing that, I do approve of those times). He was so lovely and compassionate and I want Teyla and Lorne to be beffies, okay.

<33333

OH TEAM! OH TODD! OH LORNE!!

[unamaga.livejournal.com]
