Atlantis: Epihpany - first thoughts

[selenay]

Um, John Sheppard is really going for the whole Kirk thing, isn't he?

Also, Elizabeth went on a mission! Yay! I feel that she needs to do this more often. If she could get a little dishevelled, maybe some dirt smudges on her cheek, that would also be cool. If she could get stranded on a planet alone with Teyla, I'd know that the writers are reading this LJ ;-)

I very much enjoyed this ep, despite John's Kirk-alike attempts.


I need to find a poster for signing at Pegasus One. Does anyone know whether there are currently magazines with Atlantis posters in them on the British newsagent shelves?

Also, I'm trying to come up with some designs for name badges for the con. They're a fun way to meet people and put names to the faces of people that I've spoken to on-line but never met, so if anyone wants one you can either leave a comment on this journal or email me privately on selenay936 at selenayhaven dot com. Even if you're a lurker who hasn't friended me and has never spoken to me, come out of the wood work and say hello.

Can't believe that it's less than three weeks now :-)

Apparently the first discs for season 2 are up for pre-order in places. I must investigate...

That would be Epiphany then! It was during this one that I had an Epiphany. Most of the way through I was noticing how much Rodney was missing Sheppard, but I got equally excited when John kissed that bird. My brain went 'but you ship Shep with McKay, Teyla or Weir' and the rest of me went 'yeah, right'. And I went, 'bugger'.

You confused shipper, you :-)

*snicker* John is the multi-purpose ship subject, though. Unlike most of the others, it's perfectly possible to put him in multiple ships without blowing your brain or going "eh?" 'Cos I wasn't actually annoyed by the whole kissing the girl thing despite my Sheppard/McKay tendencies.

And I'm hanging my head about the typo. I actually retyped Epiphany because I mis-spelled it the first time...

And I'm hanging my head about the typo.

There was a typo? I didn't notice the word Epiphany anywhere in your post, hence my first comment.

[selenay]

*g* There was a typo in the subject, which is what I thought you'd spotted! *snicker*

[paranoidangel]

I didn't even notice that there was a subject!

Basically I was like ´Sheppard what is it with you and ascended chicks´ and then Rodney pretty much said the same thing, while I was eating an apple, which had me laughing, then choking because the two don´t go together well.

Also, poor baby, totally abandonment issues, and we don´t get any backstory except he liked storms as a kid, or was scared of them, but they were still cool. Ooookay.

Maybe that´s a deep metaphor for something. Or not.

[selenay]

Yup, definitely has abandonment issues. Although he hung around in that cave for a darned long time - I'm thinking that he has an incredible amount of faith in his team, even though it seemed like he'd been abandoned.

There was some comment, a film reference, that had me giggled while trying to drink milk, also not a great combination :-)

I'm fairly sure that, like the ferris wheels, the storm thing can be taken either way but was probably intended as having no metaphor or anything. Um. Possibly.

My brain hurts today.
