THis is fascinating. The characterization of John is a little hard to buy -- what we see of him in SGA canon is more closed-off, yet more dorky. He's softer than Lex, more interested in pissing off The Man by slouching than by doing drugs. Passive-aggressive, that's the word I'm looking for.

Making Rodney be Clark is wow, unexpected -- I would have done the equivalence the other way -- and so I really really want to see more! More!

Thank you very much.

To be honest, it's not a complete fusion. Lots of similarities but lots of differences too. For example, John's dad isn't new money, their family has been wealthy for awhile so he's not as driven as Lionel but he does expect his sons to conform to what he expects of them

Well, I figure that John is a little purposeless because his father has thwarted all of his plans for the things he wants to do because they're no ambitious or proper. I mean, learning to fly? He can just pay some guy to fly his Learjet for him! Why would John need to do anything but learn how to manage the company and makes lots of money? And John hates it. And his father (no where as evil and Lionel, I assure you, just very controlling) thinks that finding his son smoking pot is a big no no. Very bad for public image. John isn't exactly doing lines of coke off a hooker's stomach or anything, his Dad's just very traditional

SGA John and Rodney through a Smallville lens?
COOL!

More, please...
