Voyagers over that haunted sea

[winkingstar]

Only two weeks and I'm already behind on the year. *sigh*

Anyway, I had a fabulous weekend with propinquitine and M., wherein we watched the SGA finale (because group therapy was totally necessary) and an assortment of other oddities, and explored a bit of the Dupont Circle Metro stop (though we got a late start and thus only actually made it to Kramerbooks,

Sounds like you had fun! I've been mainlining season 1 SGA episodes like mad since the show ended. It makes me feel better that I can always go back to an early episode and remember how freaking awesome it was. Working on a drawing for the mcsheplets fest helps too but I am still mourning the loss of the show even after a craptacular Season 5.

Yis, we had lots of fun, even amid the sadness. :)

We totally had that problem when we watched Rising where we were all, "I kind of want to watch Hide & Seek now..." and then realized we probably shouldn't (at least then) or we wouldn't leave the apartment for weeks because we'd end up rewatching the entire series (at least to Search & Rescue, and then doing lots of judicious scene-/episode-skipping from there).

We watched a bunch of vids for post-finale therapy, too. Including, of course, "We Built This City" because that vid just makes everything better (and sparkly!).

Oh, show. ♥

I watched SGA with best friend yesterday. It should have been a two-parter.. *pouts* And Ronon should have stayed dead. I mean, I love Ronon, but they managed to do wonders every five minutes, they were so incredibly lucky, everyone was saved, nobody died. It´s sci-fi, not a fairy tale. :-)

And Trouble With Tribbles! Eee! One of the best Trek episodes ever! Especially when you know that when Kirk is standing in the middle of the tribble heap and others are falling down on his head, it´s Sisko who´s throwing them. :-D

It would definitely have been better as a two-parter. And, you know, all the other season finales have been two- or three-parters since they ended on cliffhangers that were resolved in the next season's premier. So they're used to writing two-part finales, but they smooshed this one into one because there is no next season. :( And I totally get what you mean about no casualties (besides the obligatory redshirt pilot who was following John's plane, which we totally called because, hello, Star Wars!).

Yessss, tribbles!! Tribbles are made of so much win. ♥

Oh gosh, our festivities were a week ago now, weren't they?! I am behind on life right now, I have to say -- maybe on the monthiversary I'll do my post? (I think the pics came out okay, but wouldn't you know, I haven't really looked at them, even?) I am about to go respond to like three more posts of yours, so I'll just say:

- we need to get M. watching more Merlin. Perhaps we can arrange some sort of tele-watching/IM-chat thing, for simultaneity? So that we don't have to wait until Spring Break or something?

- you forgot to mention that it was cold and raining when we did our casing of the NIH-joint. Details! :D

p.s. I really want some waffles. Right now.

You are behind on life already and I am dizzy-from-tired already - we are quite a pair! *hugs* ♥

I have been making Brittany watch Merlin. Under the firm understanding that it takes place in an alternate universe because she is a historian. ;)

[propinquitine]

Yessssss! And how is a real historian doing with the many and varied anachronisms? Too blinded by the pretty to notice?

In related news, M. wants me to write a story where John and Rodney get their own slash dragon. In the crossover/fusion-verse, I was thinking maybe O'Neill would be the slash dragon, since he's all cryptic and weird (and awesome), but then I realized: Todd. Todd with his crazy poetry and talking in riddles and creepy fixation on John/Arthur. y/n/did we talk about this already?

[winkingstar]

We are firmly convinced that it is an alternate universe, and so long as we keep repeating that every so often (like, say, every five minutes), then she is fine. ;)

Nooooo, we did not discuss this! Todd=Slash Dragon ftw! Doooooooo eeeeetttt!!!
