aruanWe interrupt this extended lull in productivity (because working for The Man so doesn’t count) to bring you the thing that hijacked my feeble little mind for a solid five minutes of drooling this afternoon (originally posted by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rasmizar here):
Whichwalkingshadow also e-mailed me in short order, and it would be like we share a brain but not really because this one is for anybody with EYES. God, hottest photo of the man since that candid of him setting up a tent by the lakeside, but this is BETTER because he's in costume and the CASUAL way his hand is resting on his SIDEARM, his entire BOYISH posture while his foot plays with the skateboard like he isn't something DANGEROUS and BEAUTIFUL and will smite you RIGHTEOUSLY if you so much as look at his city wrong.
Yeah. Hot like THAT.
Wow, nice to be back, fandom. I have downloaded the "with a little Stargate" promos, but have so far only seen Teal'c's, because Sci-Fi actually aired it during SG-1 the other night. But I hear John instructs us in the not-phallic-at-all art of billiards while Rodney goes down in an elevator. ajklahgl;skfhgalhTHEY MAKE IT SO EASY. AND I HEAR THE LEATHER JACKETS AREN'T JUST FOR PRETTY PROMOTIONAL SHOTS. It's like they polled fandom during the hiatus and LISTENED. RAPTLY.
Also in fannish news, Jonas Quinn ingratiated himself completely in the episode when they're all stuck in the mothership after crashing it into the Pacific, and all of my friends suck for not comforting me after I watched Meridian all alone on my sofa at 3 a.m. WITHOUT WARNING and cried like a wee girl. And with Sam running her hands across his journals that are still in his office like he'd be back any minute, Teal'c with such obviously gaping cracks in his usually convincing stoicism, and Jack not dealing AT ALL, the point isn't that he comes back. [sniffle] I'm not militant about labeling, but I didn’t KNOW and the TiVo summary gave no warning. I mean, yeah, OK, lots of radiation, but this is SG-1 - they DON'T die when they should with much higher frequency than when they actually die. I know he's died several times, and even in the episode they mention he's been in and out of a sarcophagus a dozen or so times (ajsdfjhkfhafa WHAT? was he tortured?!) but yeah, aforementioned watching conditions are not when I should see my second-most dearly beloved TV character of the moment die.
And of course, the next episode I watched is the one where they burn Vala alive. You know, I've watched science fiction shows for a decade now and am well aware there's practically a per-season quota for near-death experiences, so I'm all like, "Oh that fire won't get to her, or they'll beam her out in time, or she'll get loose or Daniel will talk them out of it" AND THEN SHE DIES. Of course, the resurrection is a much more timely process than it will be in Daniel's case but jeez. I've become complacent with them pulling it out at the last minute. It's like they're taking their cues from BSG all of a sudden, which is not a show in which you should get attached to ANYONE.
Randomly, as I sift through media, David Hewlett eating that whole lemon in the Season Two profile PWNS, and from the stills alone (more specifically the one of Rodney gesturing with the implement) it is assured that I will love episode two of the new season. Fifteen days, JOY.
