SGA 2x16

[lierdumoa]

OH MY GOD LOVE.

First off, for giving this the most deceptively corny title ever.

Let me just say I've been going on for an obnoxiously long amount of time about how SGA loves to play with the gender roles, without any proof that they're doing it on purpose. OMGPROOF. Phoebus is another name for the male god of Apollo. Sun god. Like Ra. Thalan is the goddess of birth. You don't get much more feminine than goddess of babies and the womb.

Dude, the writers are such adorable, adorable geeks. Last episode was the highschool play. Now it's Assassins RPG.

YAY CONTINUITY! Like last week when they had Ronon carry Carson's bags, because before Ronon made Carson carry his bags in I can't remember when, but permetaform pointed it out when she was reviewing episodes to vid. This time, Ronon does not like chess, re: lunch scene in "Trinity" was it? Ronon also thinks Weir is v. v. strange weirdo nerd. Ronon does not like chess, because in chess he is a pawn and he gets shot in the stomach.

I love the Teyla. For she is not a pawn. She is a queen posing as a knight. LOVE.

Duuuuuude, Rodney. Oh God, I love the Rodney. "Two consenting adults" -- omg. He TOTALLY thought strange guy in his boyfriend's body making out with strange chick in Weir's body was OMGHOT. "Two of my favorite hot people, but not really them, so without the jealousy I'd usually get. If they have no problem macking on each other in public, I have no problem being that public." HE DISGUSTS HIMSELF SOMETIMES.

I love my Rodney.

And here is the part I really love. At the end, the only people really believing Weir and Sheppard were themselves were Carson and Caldwell. Rodney is still suspicious at the end of the episode. He would TOTALLY HAVE SEX WITH JOHN AFTERWARDS ANYWAY.

And John TOTALLY WOULDN'T MIND, EITHER.

See, nobody writes the episode codas I want to read.


Love, love, love Rodney's random and violent twitch when alien guy was all, "He cares about you [Teyla] more than you know."

Torri Higginson, if I didn't want to marry you before....

Caldwell! I like him! They give him good lines now that he is no longer posessed! To posessed!Elizabeth -- "I'm sorry, we don't have any more regular fries, would you like the curly fries instead?" <33333333

I love phrase used to describe Teyla. It's so true.

Would the people who post reviews stop being so eloquent, please? Everytime I read something like that I want to use it in a header or wallpaper or whatever. Um. Yes! Teyla rocked!

HE DISGUSTS HIMSELF SOMETIMES.
So the smile was a "But it's still surprisingly hot. Huh." smile? It makes so much more sense now.

See, I was all worried about this episode, because I was sure my Mckay/Sheppard heart couldn't stand it, but then there's...

THIS to appease me.
