Dude - evil!Elizabeth? making out with Kate? John watching? hit several personal kinks on that one :) and the leather pants! lol. John's right... she should *always* wear leather pants. *sigh* so pretty.

Oh - and Elizabeth bitchslapping Lucius? Sooooo excellent. I got the feeling after that ep that Elizabeth and Carson were considering murder as utterly justifiable and John had to talk them out of it. Nice to see him get smacked around in this universe. *cough*totallydeservedit*cough*

Remember when I told you that medie and I were working on an evil AU with Kate/Elizabeth? This AU is actually a snapshot of the AU that she and I are working on. And good God, yes, wouldn't she be amazing in leather pants?

*snickering* Oh, yes, I was hoping Lucius had been lynched when they brought him back to his home village. Oh! Remind me some time to dig up the rec I have somewhere with the OFC Runner character. It deals with the fact that the Lanteans don't have an established legal system. It's in my massive pile of fics to be recced.

If this is the snapshot, I can't _wait_ to see the rest of it *VBG* hurry please? lol...

As to the leather pants - maybe we need a fic challenge for that? all the ways to get Elizabeth in (or out) of leather pants. :)

Oooo an OFC Runner? and legal system? sweet.

On another note - how much do I *hate* court clerks some days? Give some people a little power and they turn into Napolean. Or worse. Anubis. snerk. Off to do battle and get my docs filed. grr.

It's going to be slow going, but you'll probably be on my list of people I'll be asking to betaread. Though honestly, they don't start this evil. Or, rather, they don't start this openly evil.

Ooh, that'd be a good fic challenge! Though I seem to recall that you're already working on that one yourself. Hehehe.

And yes! Well, yes to the OFC Runner, but no to the legal system. But there's acknowledgement of the lack of legal system! And interesting ways of coping with that. I'll find it while I'm going through my to-be-recced pile of links. Most of them (a scary amount) are SGA fics.

Oh, court clerks are my *bane*. And I just call them for information most of the time. Good luck with filing your docs!

Mmmm I love a nice dark character fic where you get to see them change progressively. Sometimes it's a little hard to just make the jump into Elizabeth being *so* much of a dictator, or John being, well, an ass *g* - send it on whenever you need a read through.

Ooh, that'd be a good fic challenge! Though I seem to recall that you're already working on that one yourself. Hehehe.

*looks innocent* Me? Put Elizabeth in leather pants... never. *veg* Should have that posted by Monday night. Got a little waylaid last night.

And I'm just now getting through most of your old rec's so no need to hurry on my account lol.

Clerks = bane. Much bane. I swear, some are totally cool and helpful, and some need to remove the stapler that's been shoved up their... well, you know. Ugh. Stupid people.

[havocthecat]

Well, it's a little different than that, but I'll see if it works out in fic first.

*snerk* Yay! I'm very much looking forward to that.

And the scary thing with my old recs? That's only a few of them. I read a lot of fanfic.
