sans peur et sans reproche--by frostfire

It’s been a year and a half, and John’s gotten used to Atlantis. Command can be a pain in the ass, and there’s the possible death by life-sucking alien, 1950’s-era bomb attack, ten-thousand-year-old anything, and being turned into a fucking bug, but there are perks. Really sweet ride, for one. Ascended sex. Fucking with Rodney’s head. Shooting

I don't know what's wrong with me, but mostly, I just thought this was insanely hot. And I love how this actually fits the canon.

[frostfire_17]

Evil John is totally hot. There is nothing wrong with you that is not also wrong without a few hundred other people hanging around fandom. *g*

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it. And yeah, the canon does fit scarily well, doesn't it?

[frostfire_17]

Thank you! Evil John WINS!

This was creepy. In a delicious way, but still...meeep!

[frostfire_17]

Heh. Thanks so much--in this case, creepy is good. Evil John wins at everything. Glad you liked it!

Oh my god.
Strange thing is, i can kinda see this happening. o.0 I mean, we don't know that much about John really, he could so be a plant waiting for a signal. Not likely to happen, but intresting.
It's sad but i'm really starting to like fucked up John, and your stories are primarily to blame. You do it so well. =) Planning any more?
Side note = can i friend you?

[frostfire_17]

If they made something like this happen on the show, I would totally worship them FOREVER. And fucked-up John wins at LIFE.

Really glad you enjoyed the story. And--wow, yeah, you can totally friend me! *flattered* As for more fucked-up John....well, it's a distinct possibility. *g*

Good grief. I'm so taken with this horrible, fucked up John.

[frostfire_17]

Mmm, so am I. I LOVE fucked-up John. And he just so sexy when he's evil.

*ahem* Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the story!

I'd argue he can - though I have to say, if we're talking work, SGA is probably not the best example to draw from to decide if Joe has acting ability or not, since I agree with you - I think he struggles to find that particular character, making Sheppard seem a little 'forced' at times.

I think Sheppard is an interesting character, definitely made by the choices Joe makes as the person playing him, and I think the way he's played it means something like this fic could easily slot into the canon-verse.

On the issue of the fic, I love the fact that you made Sheppard evil, and the fact that you tied Ba'al and the Goa'uld in. It was really well-written and believable.

[frostfire_17]

Isn't evil Sheppard great? I *wish* they'd do something like that on the show. I'm bad at judging acting skillz or lack thereof, honestly, but I do love Flanigan-as-Sheppard. Really glad you enjoyed the fic, and thanks for commenting!

I'm one of the few SGA fans who'd argue that JF can actually act.

So, wait. People think he can't act? How do they come to that conclusion? I'm confused. Because I'd seen exactly one thing in he was in before Atlantis, so I didn't have anything to really compare, and I think he can. It's subtle, though. Okay, occasionally not so much, but he gives Sheppard a lot of depth by line delivery. Of course, that's pretty much my take on most of the cast since subtlety is not exactly a key point on the show's writing (more like "Boom! Things go explode! Bad guys die but more come acalling!").

I just don't get it. During the season premire, he delivered some pretty corny lines extremely well. Plus the fact he act in the jumper set is pretty good too, cause wow, that's a tight space with mostly the inability to use lower body language (same with 302s). The man can convey a lot with eyes and facial expression. No, he's not exactly Gregory Peck, but the role doesn't require that serious studious acting. Tongue-in-cheek show and all. *shakes
