1) So, what you're saying is, you have an unpopular opinion about unpopular opinions? XD

Exactly!
Although, I totally did not preface it as an unpopular opinion. It was more like...Newton seeing the apple falling and saying "woah! Gravity!!1!" even though so many people before him had noted apples falling as well. And yes, I did just compare myself to Newton, wanna make something of it?

...wow, sleep deprivation does make me loony.

Why are the input fields for AU scenarios so short??

I kind of forgot to change the defaults :/ Just comment with your ideas if you have more detailed ones :D I'm guessing yours will be pretty good since I ended up doing your Cthulhu one.

Okay, so for my Steampunk!SPN idea I imagined something with weird, visually interesting gadgets that help them hunt the supernatural, in particular demons, instead of relying on ritual and symbols, kind of a slight SF slant to the horror, but still kind of gothic?

And for the SGA roleversal one, my idea would be John & Rodney from a more advanced Pegasus planet, so they could have kept their jobs mostly, maybe them as part of Sateda's defense? (though I guess maybe the Genii could work also) And then Ronon and Teyla as part of the expedition met up with them somehow, maybe it's even AU enough that Sateda hasn't fallen and the picture could be set there? Anyway a team picture.

Unrelated, (since the bite field was short also) I try to avoid getting bitten. The goat ambushed me in a petting zoo when I wasn little and I think ostly it tried to eat me get to the feed I had, so I was kind of overrun and nibbled on. Otherwise I've only been bitten by boring animals, i.e. my father's previous cranky cat, by bugs, and by a pet rat that had ( ... )

2) Heh. Also when the kitty visits me in the early early morning hours and I pet him in bed he's all sparky with static electricity. (He doesn't want love as much in the winter for some reason....:)

Hehe, yeah, happened with the cats in my house too. I have taken to wandering around everywhere with my keys in my hand and touching everything metallic with it first. That at least reduces the zap to just a vague tickle.

I actually wanted to say: Teyla as the bodyguard of socialite!John, with Rodney his harried PA, and Ronon as his PR guy. And, of course, the Wraith Mafia are after John, so Teyla must kick ass.

What I couldn't add to my SPN AU: white horses optional. :)
