Five people Sam wishes she could have fallen in love with bluflamingo July 19 2009, 18:20:41 UTC

1.Cam, when she first met him and he was full of enthusiasm and drive, behaved like a gentleman and treated her like an air force officer. It wasn’t hard at all to imagine dating him, marrying him, home and kids and maybe a dog. She told him once, any woman would be lucky to have you, and really, really meant it. But whatever she’d needed for any woman to be her, it wasn’t there ( ... )

Oh, Sam.

Re: Five people Sam wishes she could have fallen in love with bluflamingo July 21 2009, 20:49:54 UTC

Yeah, god forbid I just write a happy ending for once :o)

I really like #3, because it does seem like Sam would have wanted more of a connection with Cassie, and falling in love with Janet would have been the perfect way to get that (well, apart from the whole DADT thing).

The rest are lovely too. Wistful and a little sad and very Sam.

I love the end of this, it's such a lovely way of looking at it.

Re: She Could Have Loved gategremlyn July 21 2009, 13:48:00 UTC

Thank you! It seemed to fit Sam somehow.

Re: She Could Have Loved cesy July 20 2009, 22:14:03 UTC

Lovely ending.

I love your description of her relationship with Pete! :D

And #5 is lovely and sad.

Re: Five people Sam wishes she could have fallen in love with gategremlyn July 21 2009, 13:51:32 UTC

Ouch! to five. Very perceptive.

*snickers at the meta in #1*

Jacob was right there on that elevator when Jack pushed Daniel's glasses up. Every slasher knows that proves they're doin' it!

None so blind as those who will not see, I guess. ;-)

I love the last line of the first one.

Thank you, glad that worked for you ^_^

4. Rodney McKay

The very thought of being in love with Rodney McKay, when she'd heard about her alternate self's marriage, was disturbing. He was abrasive and arrogant and he'd called her a dumb blonde and - and - he was McKay. She couldn't think of someone she'd be less likely to marry ( ... )

There are some great insights into Sam here. #1 is great, with Sam acknowledging the person she isn't, and not just the life she doesn't have. And I love #5, with her musings about how life would have been so much easier if she'd fallen for Daniel rather than Jack.

Re: Five people Sam wishes she could have fallen in love with (2/2) shinealightonme July 30 2009, 05:51:20 UTC

Thanks! Glad that these gave some insight ^__^

Re: Five people Sam wishes she could have fallen in love with (2/2) rebeccavoy July 21 2009, 02:26:13 UTC

#1 was great, with the stinger at the end. #2 I wouldn't have even thought of, such a great choice! But I think my favourite is #5 - that things would have been easier with Daniel.
