Okay, I know I say this every episode, but
It's like they made it JUST. FOR. ME.
OMG THE WEIR/RONON.
First with him cocking his gun and promising to defend her and Weir smiling that minxy h0r-i Torri smile and saying, "Thankyou" oh so daintily like she knows. She knows her hair will be getting dishevelled, this evening. Then later, with the hovering over her and when the replicators walk in on them, he just sees her look for a split second and spins around like a beautiful dreadlocked dervish to DEFEND HIS CRAZY WHITE WOMAN.
I almost, almost have enough footage to make a Weir/Ronon vid now. I just need a song.
LOVE MY SHOW.
And of course, love Weir wearing her hot little black t-shirt a la John Sheppard.
NEW CITY CG. I LOVE THE PRETTY, PRETTY CG. Once I get this episode in hdtv, I'm posting screencaps.
And John with the drones and the dodging and me squealing at the screen all "Fly, Flyboy, FLYYYYYYY."
Oh, God, O'Neill and Woolsey. The banter was hilarious. So, so hilarious and how much do I love that EVERYONE KNOWS CARSON IS A PUSSY. EVEN O'NEILL.
And then there was that, like, entire scene of really retardedanal mind probe jokes. Too hideous and intimate to recount indeed.
I love how Teyla just ... mocks people. Like BUTTER WOULDN'T MELT. She walks softly and carries a BIG DAMN STICK.
Weir seriously needs to run around with guns more. Like, all the time more. Jesus.
And John, smacking Rodney in the head, and Rodney just, like, taking it, not even pausing, like MY BOYFRIEND BEATS ME. WHATEV.
John was a snarky bitch as always. Prettiest girl at the prom. LOVE HIM. GOD, I want bantery shmoopy McShep fic, now.
And OMG O'Neill and John are so related. Neither knows WTF to do when Weir is hugging them. I'm still going with that theory that John is the love child, 400 times removed, of alternate timeline!Jack and Sam who went back in time and hooked up in Egypt in that one SG-1 episode that I only watched because it had Rodney in it.
I love how Rodney is always SO FREAKING SURPRISED when his plans work.
But, okay, my favorite part? My absolute favorite?
Sheppard: Personal identification code blah blah whoop-de-do.
Caldwell: That code is no longer valid.
O'Neill: General O'Neill here. That valid enough for you?
Caldwell: I'm sorry, but you could have been compromised.
Weir: STEPHEN.
Caldwell: Yes, Madam, right away, Madam, whatever. you. say. Madam.
Weir: Did I say you could stop kneeling?
In other news, I had a good Thanksgiving. My dad has become a total entertainment junkie in his old age (methinks the boredom is getting to him) and is spending his retirement money on broadband internet (finally, omg, dialup for yeeeeears) and two giganimous flatscreen tv's—a 37" for the master bedroom and a 52" for the living room. My sister got an acceptance letter back from one of the law schools she applied to, and it's ranked 14 in the country and close to where she lives. Of course, if she gets accepted to a higher ranked school, she'll go elsewhere. It'd be really cool if she got into Berkeley (ranked 8th) since I'd get to see her all the time. It's early yet, so who knows. V., v. happy for her.
Oh, what else.
Saw the last episode of Dexter. No spoilers except to say that the entire episode was like watching really, really good porn.
And, in closing, a conversation snippet between me and
fashes:
fashes: I'm making an emo post
fashes: Is there a mood for "depressed"?
fashes: OMG there is. There's totally a mood for "depressed".
lierdumoa: Dude, of course there is.
lierdumoa: This is LiveJournal.
lierdumoa: It's just us and the cutters.
lierdumoa: There's no one else.
fashes: ::cracks up::
fashes: That needs to be a t-shirt.

Dude. I squeed somewhere in a comment about just that -- THE WRITERS PAIR THEM UP JUST. RIGHT! (I like the Teyla/Beckett team, in a friendshippy way, too). IT DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS!
Well, okay, once Ronon bends her way back and gives her a kiss, or Weir and he stand in front of each other for the hundredth time, and Elizabeth mumbles, "Oh, hell," fists Ronon's t-shirt, and draws him down into a kiss because OMG THE UST!
Teyla is awesome. The awesomest. The scene with the two guns?! Hnghhhh...YES.
YES! SO YES! I sat there and thought, uh, wait, that's...hot. MORE GUNS! More not-body-possessed Elizabeth carrying some big-ass firearm!
To my surprise, I didn't find a femslash pairing for this show when I started watching -- all my big fandoms had 'em, from Buffy/Faith over Sydney/Lauren or Sydney/Nadia, and I wrote 'em, if not always finished them. With Atlantis, Cadman's the only one who pings my radar. But now, Elizabeth is looking more interesting. (Oh, God, it just occurrs to me that me finding girls hot seems to depend on either superpowers or carrying a gun while lookin' good doing it. Is that worrisome??)

You're speaking from your shame place again. I have no idea how to relate to you when you're in your shame place.

...no, wait, it precisely is.
0 :-)
And nah, unlike the whole excerting-power-over-another-human-being-just-for-the-sake-of-doing-it, I'm not ashamed of liking girls with guns, or other insignia of power. I just...hmm, maybe I wish I could have more respect for fictional women who don't stand up like this, stand out like this, or in any other, visible way.
no subject
HAH! See, I saw that and went "Wait, he's her total bitch in canon too?" Elizabeth is being awesome and it feels unnatural. I swear I'll get used to it soon.
no subject
And, well, I've always thought Weir was awesome. She's been my favorite character from the very beginning.
no subject
Ah, I had a great dislike of Elizabeth in previous seasons, but this season she totally rocks, and I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. Please God it doesn't - I like liking her.
no subject
There are plenty people who would agree with you in disliking Weir prior to this season. I am really, really not one of them. It's nice that more people like her now, but their new liking isn't anything I'm going to bond with them over.

Oh my God, I didn't even realize it, but you're right! He caved like day old bread when she said his name, stern and school marm-ish, only cooler because Elizabeth is sexy and in control this season.
Oh, the love.

I almost, almost have enough footage to make a Weir/Ronon vid now.
ALMOST? I've lost track of the number of times he's scraped his eyes up and down her fine form. Ack, which ep -- right when they're about to go through the gate & Ronon's doing his flippy!gunslinging porn (hummina), then Weir bounces up fastening her vest & announces she's going with the team? He just stands there in the background and MAULS HER WITH HIS EYES OMG.
So, um, I might like to see that in a vid.
A bit.
no subject
We're not talking about a Weir/Ronon vid here, we're talking about *the* Weir/Ronon vid. Perfection requires patience. Trust the vidding h0r on this one.
;-)
Besides, I'm not finishing my already in progress Weir vid till Christmas break. Which I promise you will love, so you have something to look forward to in the meanwhile.

YAY.
