So great and definitely worth the seven-month wait. ;)

OMG FLAIL. The Stargate as a female character - the most important and pivotal character of the show, really!

You are brilliant.

And thank you!

Oooh, cool. And sometimes I somehow manage to forget, but Sam Carter really is the best, isn't she? ♥
