I was waiting for someone to write that scene! Thank you!

[toniabarone]

*giggles* No, thank you. I started it last night but I was so giddy I was literally vibrating and couldn't sit still enough to type. I may or may not post a smutty ending to this later on. Dunno. But, yeah, no way could I let that lemon thing go. INJUSTICE!

[elayna88]

A smutty ending would be nice!

INJUSTICE!

I guess I'm weird, I always give a little squee at those kind of moments because I know someone is already starting to plot a fix. They're just challenges for fic writers to validate the McShepness. *g*

I asked for a lemon fic in another post, so thanks so much for this.

I wish I could write. There are so many things that need a fic from this episode.

I encourage you to find that smutty ending.

Cute AND smutty. And Lemony Snarky! *loves ficlet*
*pouts on account of having not seen the episode*

Aw, thanks! Glad y'liked it. Aw, y'didn't? You shoulda! It was good, even if the SG1 writers watered Rodney down to make Sam look good. Basically John gave Cam a lemon to "keep Rodney in line" and Cam ACTUALLY USED IT! And Rodney SAW John give him the lemon. And you KNOW Rodney wouldn't let it lie so...

For a crossover ep, though, it was good. You should watch it. If, y'know, you don't mind seein' Rodney put down at every turn and basically emotionally abused the entire episode--even by John. It was like the cool kids came to Atlantis and John dropped the geek to hang out with them. Classic "jock ashamed of being friends with shunned geek" act. It was painful to watch.

And I'm rambling. Maybe I should just review the damn ep and get my issues out...

I was actually watching the ep admiring how SG-1 was treating Rodney as "one of the gang" - he *does* work best under pressure, Cam was doing the same "cruel to be kind" thing that John usually does with Rodney, and Sam was respecting his opinions and listening to his advice (and mocking his fantasies of her, of course). The way I saw it, *John* was the one that was excluded because he didn't get to go on the black hole mission and he was useless in terms of helping Daniel with the database, while *Rodney* got to abandon his team and hang with the "cool kids".

Many interpretations are possible, though.

[toniabarone]

*rolls eyes* John admits that Rodney's mortally allergic to citrus then hands Cam a lemon!? No. And John was trying too hard to show up to SG1. Even if joking, talkin' 'bout shootin' Rodney? All his barbs at Rodney were just mean. And Cam WAS mean. Maybe he WAS a little teasing with the lemon, but on the bridge scenes? No. And neither was Sam, most times. They hardly ever took him seriously. They treated him EXACTLY as they did at the SGC before Atlantis. Like he was an outsider who knew diddly squant. Sam's smart and all, but she hasn't spent her ENTIRE LIFE focused on science like Rodney has. She's split it between science and military. Like it or not, Rodney's got more expertise and they didn't listen to him and it nearly cost them.

aaahhh, desk!porn. Love it. Thanks.

[toniabarone]

*snorts* I'd hardly call that desk!porn--yet. But thanks. Glad y'liked it. May or may not be posting a smutty continuation/ending in the next few days.

[pixiesmith]

oh yes! definitely waiting for someone to write that scene! brilliant!

[toniabarone]

*grins* Thanks!

[sp23]

Heh, I love the imagery of Rodney lobbing the lemon at Sheppard's head. Too bad it wasn't a rock! *g*

[toniabarone]

*giggles* Yeah, I couldn't resist that. I mean, who didn't wanna do that when Shep pulled that lemon out and handed it to Cam? Really?
