STARGATE SG-1 04.01. | Small Victories

[ekaterin1701]

I know I’ve posted it before, but this moment from the first episode of Stargate always makes me smile 😀

[samueltanders]

[brigitoshaughnessy]

Just Sam… waiting for Jack to find the right button. I’m optimistic though. He seems very persistent. Iykyk.

[tilda-rothery]

In which an alien virus or device causes all male personnel at the SGC to fall head over heels in love with Sam. At first it's flattering, but after an hour or two the novelty has worn off and all it's doing is interrupting Sam's work. Nothing more than a majorly exhausting inconvenience.

Enter Jack, who doesn't act any differently than he did the day, week or the month before, because he's been in love with her for years, rendering the virus/device utterly useless against him.

"Well aren't you the popular one today, Carter," Jack strolls into her lab, hands in his pockets. "You got half the base vying for your affection. It's a little unhealthy if you ask me." Looks around before settling his gaze on Sam, "Daniel was looking for you, he was quite insistent. As well as a few others, come to think of it." He absentmindedly tinkers with a doohickey on the desk.

"You didn't tell him where I was did you, sir?" Sam worries her bottom lip, eyes on the door.

"Course not, he was being a little too pushy." The doohickey breaks in his hands, he sets it down sheepishly. Sam eyes him curiously.

She sits up and taps her pencil on the desk. "How are you feeling, sir?

He shrugs, "A little tired maybe..."

Sam frowns, "My proximity isn't distracting you?"

Jack tilts his head to the side and studies her for a second. "No more than usual. Why?"

Sam smiles shyly, and shakes her head, "No reason."

Jack looks at her, slightly confused. "Right."

Just a thought.....

I was bored but not wrong

Hello :) exchange anon again! (No need to apologize BTW ♥️♥️) that makes complete sense, and no pressure <3 to answer your question tho, I would absolutely love a specifically SJ exchange! Do you think there would be enough people signed up tho? Just a sg1 exchange would be good too, to maybe broaden interest more than strictly SJ but too make it less of a demand on you than Anything Stargate haha (but if you think a SJ exchange would get enough signups, totally go for that hehe)

Thanks for the reply ♥️

*drops out of hiatus again*

Hey anon! I honestly have no clue how many signups there would be, but last time people almost exclusively requested a fic for the same ship they wrote for -- all the SJ people wrote for each other, all the DJ people wrote for each other, all the Sheppard/McKay people wrote for each other, etc. So theoretically it would totally be possible to run an SJ-only exchange with equal or less work than the SG winter fic exchange.

Since you sent in your ask the idea has definitely been percolating in my mind, because I love running fandom events. I keep telling myself I don't have time, which is true, and that I'm not really active in SJ fandom anymore, which is also true. But my brain likes new shiny things. So we'll see -- maybe I'll revisit the idea in a few months :)

5 OTPs and 1 ultimate OTP

Deciding on my ultimate OTP was the easy part, it was picking the 5 others that took some time. I've had many ships over the years, some I obsessed over more than others but these are what I decided on as my top 5.

John/Aeryn - Farscape

John and Aeryn were one of my very first ships, before I even really knew what shipping was. I discovered them back in the very early 2000s and quickly fell head over heels for them. For a wacky, crazy, sexy and wonderfully weird sci-fi show, Farscape told one of the best love stories I've ever seen. The chemistry, the natural build up, the tension and their whole journey's, individually and together makes these two one of the best ships ever.

Sometimes it seems shows can be reluctant to put their two leads together, even when they are clearly right for each other, because they think it won't be as interesting once they are romantically involved. However, Farscape proved that with good writing it can work exceptionally well and add to the story in such a positive way. They also stayed clear of some of the more cliched storytelling, not just when it came to John and Aeryn's romance but the series in general. Farscape gave us a truly memorable romance and after 4 seasons it was finished up in the most perfect way in a miniseries.

For over 2 decades, John and Aeryn were my ultimate OTP, even when I found new ships I always came back to them because they were written so amazingly well and got the happy ending that many of my other ships never did. They had drama, angst and they even both died on separate occasions but they won out and the mini series gave them the perfect happy ending. John and Aeryn will always hold a special place in my heart, they are an example of how love stories can be told right.

Hetty and Trevor - Ghosts US

Okay, this is a very new ship for me having only discovered them at the end of last year and I really couldn't help but fall for them. Hetty and Trevor are two people who really shouldn't work together at all but somehow they really do. Ridiculous, hilarious and adorable, these two just drew me in but what's a little different for me from my other ships is I'm still not sure whether I want them to be a true romantic couple or if I just want them to get back to where they were in season 2. Their hook ups were so wonderful and they play off each other so well that I just really need these two to get back together in some way. Ghosts US writers, please make it happen, these two have way too much potential and chemistry to be pushed aside. I need more H-Money in my life!

Jack and Sam - Stargate SG1

Jack and Sam were a ship who were never explicitly said to be together but there were many hints, in later seasons, that they were. Rules and regulations pretty much forbad a romantic relationship, though in many alternate realities they were together. The feelings between them were clear, showing themselves at various moments throughout the series, some more subtle than others but they were always present in some form. This is another pairing who had wonderful chemistry on and off screen and I love them both dearly. I know Jack and Sam are together and living happily ever after, I won't except anything else.

Xena and Gabrielle - Xena: Warrior Princess

Another ship where it was never explicitly said in the show they were together but was very much implied. These two are beautiful and had this show been made today, they most definitely would have been together. I've had a few F/F ships over the years, one which hurt me quite badly despite actually getting a happy ending and another which has yet to really set sail but Xena and Gabrielle, though I wish their ending was different, are still a ship I return to quite often and are still very dear to me.

Miranda and Gary - Miranda

Miranda and Gary are the most adorable ship and I love them to pieces. I'm not often a fan of ships in sitcoms, for some reason they don't seem to hit the right notes for me but there is something about these two and how their story was told that I just fell in love with. They really bring out the best in each other, they get each other on a level that few others do and they get their happy ending, which it seems isn't always a thing for many of my ships. Miranda is a show I can watch over and over, it's one of my comfort shows and always picks me up if I'm feeling down. They are just the most lovable and sweet ship and just make me so happy.

Honourable mentions:

Jo and Bill - Twister

Connie and Jacob - Casualty

Iain and Lily - Casualty

Jeff and Tamzin - Casualty

Lara and Patrick - Casualty

Jack and Rose - Titanic

Claire and Owen - Jurassic World trilogy

Ten and Rose - Doctor Who

Caitlyn and Vi - Arcane

Evan and Dylan - Primeval New World

Jack and Rose - Titanic

John and Maureen - Lost In Space

Now comes my ultimate OTP and it could only really be one couple

Rick and Michonne (Richonne) - The Walking Dead

Now, what can I say to describe these two beautiful people and their amazing love story?

Finding such a gorgeous love story in a show with zombies was never something I thought I'd do, I never thought it would be the kind of show I'd watch either but here we are. I discovered Richonne during a search on Tumblr for another ship I was into at the time, a ship which sadly did not end well, but I did find these two so something positive came out of it. I was drawn in by GIFS, their chemistry and connection shone through in just a few seconds and I was so intrigued to find out more about them. I watched TWD just for them and in all honesty they are the only reason I still keep up with the show.

Richonne have something I've not seen in any other ship I've had, though I'm not sure I can quite put my finger on what that is. Their chemistry is electric and so natural that they really make the love story believable and realistic. Andy and Dania's off screen friendship is also beautiful, the love, care and trust they have for each other is clear to see and I love watching their off screen interactions too. They really are friendship goals! Plus they are just as big Richonne shippers as us and it makes me love them even more.

Rick and Michonne are one of a kind, they are in a league of their own when it comes to chemistry and storytelling and are the only ship I've had that not only have their own show dedicated to their love story, but both actors are also co-creators, co-writers and executive producers. Not only that but Danai wrote an episode herself and I don't think I'm exaggerating here when I say it is one of the best episodes in the history of TWD. Though to me it is the best.

From the moment they met at the fence to the final scene in TOWL 1x06, Richonne have proved time and time again why they are not only the best couple on TWD but to me, the best couple to have ever graced my screen. They could give lessons on how a love story should be told, how longing, romance and deep unbreakable love should be portrayed on screen. They love each other so purely, so intensely and so completely that it's palpable and being the love of each others lives is not just assumed but proved and vocalised too.

This is a couple who are both warriors, they have had to resort to extreme measures to survive and to keep the people they love safe and while that is one side to them, they are also very soft, gentle and loving with each other. They are both willing to do anything to keep each other and their kids safe.

Also, they are both extremely attractive people who make an insanely good looking couple!

This is why Richonne is my ultimate OTP and I have a feeling they may just remain in that spot forever.

Me: "woman falls for older superior" is a trope that is very outdated.

Also me: "Carter and O'Neill belong together 😍😍

STARGATE SG-1 S08E01 | New Order

[ekaterin1701]

I’d be watching it for Daniel (especially early-season floppy-haired Daniel), and the slow burn romance 🥰

[samueltanders]

Sam's reaction bonus:

[brigitoshaughnessy]

Fun fact from director’s commentary. This little awkward glance was something RDA did during rehearsals and Martin Wood (director) said, “Yes! Like that.”

But RDA didn’t want to do it on camera. So they did multiple takes with and without and he was finally convinced.

[unapologeticbrainstormer]

I missed a Sam/Jack hug!!!

Look!! In SG1 2X01, after they both hug Daniel and everyone's happy, and SUDDENLY:

Look!!

Ok, I get that it's probably just the actors celebrating the new season, but a girl can dream right? Right???

I'm so happy I found this 😭

[stargatesg-1obsessed]

This is literally their song, you can’t convince me otherwise.

I had so much fun editing this, and I really wanted to include as many scenes as possible!

I have a couple of my ‘Sam and Jack being Sam and Jack for 3 minutes and 19 seconds or whatever’ lined up, just need to do finishing touches and add my watermark.
