SGA: 5x10 "First Contact"

YAAAYS!

Daniel!

Rodney!

Daniel & Rodney!!

Rodney & Daniel!!!

IOA regs! Protocols! Commander on base!! (Regs that Sheppard won't think twice about breaking! And Woolsey - don't blow up the city indeed, how could you curse them like that, have you learned nothing?!)

Storage! Videos! Rodney keeps records of everything!

Falling through walls! Rodney, you can be such a jerk when you're feeling intellectually threatened! By a soft-science guy no less!

John so could've been MENSA! (If MENSA means bitchface-club.)

Daniel's :O at Rodney's, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Rodney could have won 5 Nobels by now! Daniel might get paid more than him anyway!

Chuck reads on slow nights! John is still reading War & Peace (maybe?) Chuck & Amelia are carrying on a not-very-clandestine office(gateroom) romance! (what they so are)

"What's down there?" "Rodney." Teyla!!!

Abduction! Sadface!John & Teyla lost their Rodney (and Dr. Jackson but priorities, people)!

"You could've warned me." "I could have, yes."

John & Rodney are psychically connected through subspace!!! <3

Okay, Keller was promoted because she's actually the only doctor on Atlantis! (except there's a zillion white shirts in the opening scene, so why aren't any of them helping Zelenka with the medical scanner?)

Zelenka is a bit nervous of John when he's in Scary!Colonel-missing-teammate!mode!

Ice planet! (Is it too much to hope that next ep Daniel & Rodney escape outside into the snow and have to snuggle for warmth? ...Yeah, I thought so. Still. Hope!)

Doranda reference! And endgame machine and Rodney has to turn it on because Daniel will get killed otherwise (that's so the difference between SG-1 and SGA, SG-1 is all "noble sacrifice for good of the universe!" and SGA is all "no flipping way!")

Todd! Being Todd! Only he really didn't seem to be planning a betrayal until this happened...

Ronon's fix-all solution: get a gun and kill some Wraith!

Eeep bad side-effects! And Rodney doesn't even flinch when the aliens tell him stop, just speeds up typing! And gets zappied for his efforts! (Guilt, Rodney, guilt!)

Teyla doesn't want to leave but has to! John can handle Radek as well as Rodney, in different ways!

GATE & TOWER GO 'SPLODEY!

(Martin Gero really likes to blow up the tower. And have Atlantis invaded. As [livejournal.com profile] utopiantrunks said, paging Dr. Freud!)

TWO WEEKS IS TOO LONG NOOOOOO~ WANT NOW!

Definite hope! And then John could find them and get all awkward and Rodney could just grab his shirt and reel him in for a group hug and say, "For a skinny guy you put off a lot of heat," and then - after the requisite infirmary trip - there could be lots of manly snuggling or oooh, maybe manly bubble baths in Rodney's tub.

OMG TWO WEEKS DOES THAT MEAN WE'LL WATCH THE THRILLING CONCLUSION TOGETHER??? That's the best thing I've heard all day!! And I had a good day! XDD

Is so totally bitch-face club going on how Rodney acted. Bad, Rodney!

Amelia & Chuck FTW!

...I make up for my distaste of canon romance by pairing off all the minor characters I can! XP

It was an awesome mid-season finale!

That cad! The DHD is going to be so crushed! (What? I pair everyone one up with random pieces of tech.)

BAHAHAHA! Have I mentioned I love you ^_^

...So Zelenka with the Jumpers? Ronon with his gun. John with Ronon's gun. Teal'c with Ronon's gun...Wait, no, maybe John with the chair. Oh noes, the pairings are endless! ^_-

[identity profile] greyias.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
BAHAHAHA! Have I mentioned I love you ^_^

♥!

HEE on your answers! They really are endless. My personal OTPs are:

ZPMenka (ZPM/Zelenka) -- both of their names start with Z, what better connection is there?)

Checkett (Beckett/Command Chair) -- ...I didn't make this one up.

Chucksole (Chuck/DHD Console) -- their love was written in the stars.

Dexster (Ronon/Blaster) -- because no one touches his gun but him (ow, I just hurt my brain)

Kellner (Keller/Medical Scanner)

Sheplantis (John/Atlantis) -- because fandom demands it!

and TaoMcScan (a love triangle between the Tao Machine/McKay/Ancient Scanner) -- the DRAMA!

...and er, I may have also started to write this story. With even more random pairings and crack. *goes to hide under a rock*

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
...hee...hee...*gasp* excuse me for a moment...having trouble typing, giggling too hard! ^_-

Those are...I...I don't even know which is best!! Bahahaha! They're all fantastic!!

Hmm, what about Bantla? Bantos(?) sticks/Teyla ^_-

[identity profile] greyias.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm, what about Bantla? Bantos(?) sticks/Teyla ^_-

OH GOD, THE MENTAL IMAGE *iz ded*

...

...

Okay, now I've scrubbed my brain -- Bantla was a match made in heaven, but alas, not techy enough for my fic. I wound up going with Tike (Teyla/Exercise Bike... it has a digital readout!) What about Teyla/Athosian Cigarette Lighter? (The only pairing name I can come up with on that hurts my brain worse than the mental image.)

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
*snorfle*...those are...truly, quite the mental images, especially right before I go to bed. I'm a bit in fear of what my subconscious will make of all of that^_-

To bed and the possible...interesting...dreams that now may await...^_-

*huggles*

Ahaha... tell your sister I apologize for possibly scarring you both with the nightmares you're about to get.

[identity profile] trystings.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I have insane love for this episode. I think it may top The Shrine as my favorite ep for S5 (gasp).

And now fic as to how Sheppard wheedles money from SGC to get the windows repaired. *g*

Gnine were debating whether it's this or "The Shrine" - I'm gonna have to wait for the second part to decide, I think. This was more fun overall, but "The Shrine" has my favorite scene in the entire show, so...

I want so much fic already! Need 2nd part now...!

[identity profile] raiining.livejournal.com 2008-09-28 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
TWO WEEKS?!! It's only two weeks!!! I thought it was - like - January or something.

THIS IS AWESOME!


It was such a good ep, wasn't it? I like the 'splodey, and the mean-Colonel-frightening face! In fact, every John face was a good face for me :D

And Teyla - oh Teyla! You are teh awesome!

[identity profile] horridporrid.livejournal.com 2008-09-30 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
The awesome part for me... okay, one of the awesome parts for me (*g*) was about midway through I was like, "I'm kind of missing Teyla." :( And then, John was all, "Get Teyla and her team of Marines!" so I was all, \o/

I mean, seriously, that was the only complaint I had and they fixed it! :D

Yup! They shortened the hiatus down to almost nothing, and while I was initially upset - I don't want the finale! I'm not ready to say goodbye! - after this ep, yeeeeeah, I don't want to wait longer than I have to!
ext_3572: (sga team meal)

[identity profile] xparrot.livejournal.com 2008-10-02 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yup! Well, the ep could still have used more Teyla (I've lately determined this is true for most of the show) but at least she had the great "Rodney" line which made me squeal in delight of TEAM!

Heh - I love SG-1 and SGA both, but I might admit to being slightly partial to SGA in all their batshit determined LEAVE NO ONE BEHIND-ness. oh, Sheppard, you've taught your team crazy well!
