Addendum
Part of tonight's opening salvo of our AIM conversation. Edited for relevance.
Yay for accidental double entendre?

Nic: Also, I read something today that made me think of you and Rodney.
Bethany: oh?
Bethany: *is intrigued and scared all at once*
Nic: if I hadn't been on the GO Train when I read it I woulda burst out laughing, actually.
Bethany: LOL
Nic:
"What is that up there?"
"Ring system," he explained, "like Saturn has. Ice and dust particles, mostly, held in check by gravitation and-"
"Huh." Jennifer smiled slightly. "Guess you must have been more a Star Wars kind of kid."
Rodney shrugged. He didn't see what bearing that had on anything. "I owned a light saber," he admitted.
"Owned, or still own?"
He glanced away. "It's mint in box, okay? And quite rare."
Nic: That little excerpt being from SGA-10: Nightfall.
Nic: I tried not to make choking sounds as I attempted to stifle my laughter.
Bethany: *giggles*
Bethany: oh course he does
Nic: I bet Sheppard has one, too. Though it's not so much "mint in box" as much as it's "well used".
Bethany: ...there's a voice in my head who started snickering when you said that
Nic: *headdesk*
Nic: ...I just realized....wow, that was totally unintentional.
