10.02 Morpheus
Ahaha!
Rabid aspects of fandom are stalking me in my internet life!
*offers up proof*
There I was, about to prove my humanity through the tried and true test of reading warped text, when I received this disturbing message!!!
Sam haters have infiltrated the internets! Quick! To Arms!
Also, I'm catching up on ficathon reading - so if you suddenly get feedback, it's probably me slinking in late to the party :D
Stargate SG-1 10.02 Morpheus
Firstly, *squee* Much team love in this episode :D In fact there was a lot to enjoy in terms of the team interaction and Vala love throughout.
I didn't particularly like the glossed over ending, but when your show only has 45 minutes and you've got an A and a B storyline going - there's not an awful lot of time left to wrap everything up with a nice bow, so you get this kind of truncated "and we managed to extrapolate a cure from your research and that's how you survived..." Which was a bit of a let down (although the Sam/Daniel in that scene was scorching! Hallucinations eh?)
Daniel glee at his bookish ramblings, and then double glee with the Sam/Cam "and you say I'm hard to understand" (so doing it!) asides. Vala! It's quite a change from season 9 - pigtails! and a very mischievous side to her character. Twas very fun seeing her try to cram and then outwit the psych evaluation.
Snark! Teal'c being Captain Obvious when he notes that the village appears to be deserted and Cam's Salad Bar joke (had to explain that to the paternal)
As soon as Random-SG-Soldier started bitching about pulling a double shift the paternal noted "Well, he's dead." and I duly chimed in with "Yup, soooo dead." Total Red Shirt flag there :P
I did love the spooky decayed atmosphere of the village. Though I've never in my life seen trees look like that with all the moss draped across the branches in an urban setting, but they were loverly nonetheless.
And when they went up to the Caves, I was completely convinced that I'd get some Sam/Cam shippyness and HE SENT HER BACK! But that worked out well cos then there was Sam/Daniel (and we all know they completely fooled around to try and stay awake)
Cam and the Lizard (OTP!)
And a clue that sends them off to Atlantis - looks like Daniel will finally get to go :D

I'll be tinkering with an AU where the American Revolution never happened and y'all stayed as a Colony/Commonwealth. :D
It's quite an interesting exercise to convey this AU without going into HUGE tracts of exposition/explanation. I'm more of a write it as it is and leave it to the reader to infer kind of person. But first I have to get my Sam/Jack Ficathon out of the way!
And I'm in the same class of writing that you are. I love to leave some mystery in things and if the reader wants to make their own connections, all the better!
(Oh, gah, the S/J ficathon. I'm flailing a bit there. I'm going to work on apocafic and smut today, I think.)
I have to say I'm looking forward to all your upcoming fic! :)
Damn Jack and his taciturn ways and repression of feelings!
Also, I think I'm slightly mad attempting to write future!fic when I haven't *quite* read all of the spoilers for S10.
*wings it*
And I'm looking forward to your fic too! Are you by nay chance doing Rare Pairings when signups for that start?
You know, okay, just in case (but don't tell me!) you actually got my S/J prompts (because i know one of mine was for S10), I'm just going to throw out there that all I really wanted was a S/J story set after Jack's departure from the team, so S9 is fine for that too. (And, hell, if it's not you but my writer is reading this, it still stands!) Heh. :D
Rare Pairings I'm wavering on, mostly because I think I'd rather write any scenarios I'm likely to submit myself. Plus I need a ficathon break so I can actually finish off all those WIPs hanging around my writing file!
I think I'll be ok writing future!fic (although it will be totally Jossed and not at all canon-like I'm sure) But post season 8 is where I can see S/J happening. Still with the loverly angst, but without so much of the leader/subordinate dynamic that gives me pause.
Rowan_d is still planning on running a, er, solo-touch SG-1 ficathon too. Sometime soon, I think. And I definitely want in on that. And yeah, Team ficathon! Whoo!
I definitely think that one will be fun!
Rowan's devious mind fills me with glee!
