Long Dark Art

@mystery-lake , Hello!)

You know, I've seen so many fanfictions about the Living Atlantis, and I was very disappointed that we weren't given a series where Atlantis would be human. Like the Tardis with the 11th Doctor in "The Doctor's Wife". I think I desperately miss it.

Знаете, я видел столько фанфиков про Живую Атлантиду, и был сильно разочарован, что нам не дали серию, где Атлантида была бы человеком. Как Тардис с 11 Доктором в "Жена Доктора". Я думаю, мне отчаянно не хватает этого.

I've been struggling with a migraine and light sensitivity the last few days. I've watched some SGA but am struggling to even remember which episodes I watched. I think I watched Echoes, Tao of Rodney, and McKay and Mrs. Miller. Season 3 really does have some of the best episodes.

This morning, I decided it was time to start rewatching some of the good but hard episodes, which really are my favorites. I started with The Last Man and Search and Rescue.

The Last Man is one of those episodes where you really see how the city lights up for Sheppard. I don't remember which of y'all first put that in the tags, but I love it so. His home is always waiting for him, ready to light up. You see this as each corridor flickers on as he's walking through, like they remember him.

Rodney tells Sheppard they have to get him back in two months or everything is lost. Rodney explains about Teyla and then has to tell Sheppard it's not his fault. Like, holy cow dude, it's not your fault Teyla died. You go sucked 48,000 years into the future. (I totally relate to this. I'm very prone to taking on burdens that aren't mine. Not to share them, but feeling responsible for things in not responsible for.)

Guys! Sam's ship is the Phoenix. A Phoenix rises from the ashes. Is this a tiny ray of hope? A tiny bit of foreshadowing wrapped up in one word? Right in the middle of all the horror of what happened to his family, we have a ship named the Phoenix. And you know what the next episode is? Search and Rescue!

Having seen several seasons of SG-1, Sam's death hits hard.

Also, it's heavily implied that Woolsey himself is a better man because of Sheppard, which I find endearing.

Sheppard is concerned that if he gets sent back, he'll mess up Rodney's timeline, where he survives and gets the girl. Could this man be more selfless?

Um, Lorne has his Atlantis painting on the wall. The one from Sunday. Why did that make me cry?

This is the ultimate We Don't Leave Our People Behind episode. Even though they don't actually say that, they show it. Do y'all remember early on in season 1 in one of the earliest episodes Rodney wants to do something and Sheppard tells him that if it doesn't work it will take then like 200 years by puddle jumper to rescue him? Rodney asks if they'd come for him anyway, and Sheppard, deadpan, says sure. Well, Sheppard is trapped 48,000 years in the future, and Rodney spends 25+ years getting him back. It's not a sarcastic sure. It's an absolute solid yes because we don't leave our people behind, and each of our people is important. Without everyone together, we can't win this thing.

Search and Rescue is a trip.

Highlights include:

"As a rule, I like to keep the daring rescues down to one a day." - Caldwell

Ronon, the total mother hen, to Sheppard: Give it to me. You don't have to do everything.

Rodney delivering Teyla's son is never not special.

Sheppard leads the way in trusting Kanaan because Teyla trusts him.

Sheppard with the baby is epically beautiful. And I love Caldwell: Major Marks, please make that ship go away.

If you don't want a huge amount of psychic damage, make sure you watch these two episodes together. They're really great!

@yourbuerokrat2 and wonderful @centipede-rain Concept idea

>Season 1, episode 1. Q judges Picard's team. Q says the captain is impertinent and disrespectful. As an apology, he should immediately start kissing and licking Q's shoes with public respect. Otherwise, his team will suffer even more.

____

First, Q stretches out his foot and waves the tip of his toe in front of Picard's face. He remains silent for a long time with his eyes closed. Then, gently, timidly, he touches him lips to the black skin.

A satisfied smile touches the moody curve of Q's lips. He lowers his foot lower, forcing Picard to get down on one knee. And then he puts it on the floor altogether.

Picard is having trouble breathing. He feels his face burning with humiliation. The captain's uniform doesn't have a stiff collar, but it feels like something is constricting his throat. And his lungs felt like they were in a vice. 

An inner instinct tells him that it is better to appease the deity in advance, without waiting for a disgruntled foot twitching.

Picard gets down on his knees and bends his head, touching his cheek to the cold floor. It makes it easier to lick the sides of shoes, not just the toe. The latter became shiny and wet from the captain's zeal.

sorry not sorry, dear @sillyfacesofjohnsheppard

LD for @mystery-lake Rodney for @cow-on-a-skateboard

EN The story of Long Dark is very suitable for Rodney, if he were less panicked and whining. 1. The scene is the abandoned North of Canada. 2. Survival in harsh winters 3. There is something to dig into: flaps of radio towers, fixing a malfunctioning radio, crafting cartridges and walkie-talkies. 4. There is a mysterious yet incomprehensible perhaps not natural phenomenon — the northern lights, from which everything fails, electricity suddenly turns on (it does not exist in fact), and animals go crazy. 5. With Cooking, in addition to the usual loot coffee, coffee from acorns was added (this exists).

LD! Rodney: An extreme researcher, scientist and engineer. He has been living on the island of the Great Bear for several years. He does not communicate with anyone, only in emergency situations he contacts a hunter from the Valley or a man by the Lake. A sharp axe, a faithful rifle and a sensitive ear are his main companions. He is tough, strong. He can carry a lot of firewood and stand up for himself. All he needs is a sturdy home away from animal fangs and the nutty taste of acorn coffee.

О, интересно, есть ли это на русском? Что... О_о. Нененене, это не может быть настоящим сериалом! Вы шутите, это же выглядит так всрато и похоже на то, шоу, которое они смотрели в Собачьем Завтраке? Это же шутка, правда? Нет?

Oh, I wonder if it's in Russian? What… oh. Nnononono, this can't be a real TV show! Are you kidding, its look so bad and similar to the show they watched at the A Dog's Breakfast? It's a joke, right? No?

Is UNIT just a pyramid scheme at this point. Kate my love you cannot hire everyone you meet.
