God I love stargate analysis so much. Something this episode really brings to the series is something we've never seen before, they fail. I mean, we've seen them have failures but we've never seen them fail. When you're alive you can always keep trying to make thing right, keep fighting for a better galaxy. Obviously if the main 4 died we'd stop having a show so we'd never see that in any permanent way, but seeing it like this provied us with a refresh in something easy to forget, they're not invincible. We see these characters cheat death in a range from spectacularly skilled to unbelievably lucky fashions, but they beat it nonetheless. Seeing even a version of them (which appears to be a remarkably similar version of them at that), be unable to get out of this alive really pushes the fear factor of this episode. They're stuck on a ship blipping through realities and they know that they've lost to it before.
-(@autistic-crypt1d)
so like out of all of the episodes of sga, the deadalus variations got me the most fucked up? because of this team? because of what it means?
like? did ronon and john go first? to give teyla and rodney more time? what happens then? bc teyla might have torren and then if she does what does rodney do? does he still try or does he just look at his dead family and just...give up?!?! or does he keep fighting to try and bring them back for closure until the food runs out, and he cna feel the hypoglycemica kick in and he goes and lays down with his team?!!?
or maybe, rodney and teyla take their weapons before they know what their teammates are like and its all or nothing, but they keep giving rodney their food to try and make him work and time keeps passing.
how many universes did they jump through before they ran out of time?
how many times did they call out to other atlantis's "hey, don't come on the ship its dangerous?"
how many times did one or more of them have to go and rage as they got further and further from their own world?
did they cry for what was lost? debate if they want to get off if only they get the chance to live?
was there an atlantis that told them to come, it was okay, they'd be safe there?
did they run into an atlantis that never had an expedition and so the city wasn't there at all because it had never been moved?
was there a point where they gave up? are these people capable of giving up, especially when they can look at their teammates and think to themselves "if I give up they might die so I can't give up"
who died first? did one of them go and the others just went...i can't do this anymore and they joined the first?
how did they go gently into the good night knowing they'd never be able to go home? how did john feel knowing he'd failed his team? failed atlantis by not getting back? how does teyla deal with another loss for the athosians? or knowing torren would grow up without her? or maybe she's comforted with the fact that in pegasus the wraith have made it common and so she knows torren will be raised on stories of her? how does ronon lay down and go to sleep knowing he's one of the last member of sateda and the already dying world has lost one more warrior?
how does rodney lay down knowing he failed everyone?

SGA Fanworks Only Holiday Gift Exchange 2023
A day you won’t forget by scifi_dancer | g, 2.4k, rodney / john
The prompt I used describes it well: "Nothing goes right - until it does."
A Little Christmas Chaos by WonkyElk | t, 3k, rodney / john
The Cheer Committee nodded in solemn and united agreement. In principle, of course, they agreed that ‘absolutely hosed’ was not the ideal state for a large proportion of the expedition to be in, at any one time, Christmas or not; but that didn’t stop them feeling that the punch could do with being just a smidgen merrier. For morale purposes. Which was why each of them, separately, decided to add just the tiniest amount of extra cheer to the punch.
Big enough to miss by Mas_Pebbles_Sharp | t, 3.9k, rodney / john
Missing scenes/coda to The Daedalus Variations: Rodney's injury from alien weapon fire is worse than they at first realised
Elizabeth’s Pet Demon by Tazmy | g, 2.8k, gen
A mini demon ransacks Elizabeth’s quarters. Somehow, it’s cute. It shouldn’t be. It should be wrong, maybe even disturbing.
Finding Limits by halestrom | g, 3.6k, gen
The only thing John could focus on was getting back to Atlantis, getting a team and finding Rodney before Ford's men did anything. Getting back to Atlantis and finding out that Rodney had rescued himself wasn't a surprise, but sitting and watching his still body as Carson tried to figure out what to do was hard. Not just for John, but for all of AR-1.
First Embrace by Cyber_Witch85 | m, 2.8k, carson / evan, rodney / john, evan / john
John Sheppard and Evan Lorne rescue Rodney and Carson from a wraith lair. Carson and Evan explore the beginnings of their relationship as John and Rodney sleep.
Golden Slumbers by cassiope25 | g, 3.8k, rodney / john, team
“You should put more trust in me,” Ronon told her gently. "There's nothing a former runner can't take on.” Ronon is there to care for his team, and they care for him in turn.
Hand in Hand by mific | e, 4.7k, rodney / john
"Yes, yes, we're the talk of the town," Rodney said, eyeing them narrowly. "Run along now and if you're ever on Cambara don't agree to do the damn welcome ritual." "And if you do," Sheppard panted, "don't come last."
His Rodney by Jade | g, 1.5k, gen
It’s not always easy to remember who he is.
I Can Do Anything Better Than You! by Goddess47 | t, 3k, rodney / john
John, the traitor, had lured him to this so-called 'social event' organized by some self-appointed group of Expedition members. There had been a promise of chocolate cake and John had hinted at the possibility of mutual orgasms at the end of the night.
i waited ‘til i saw the sun by LogicGunn | t, 1k, steven / elizabeth
Elizabeth remembers.
I’ll keep you warm by puddlejumperpilot | g, 2k, rodney / john
The sky was darkening and fluffy snowflakes were falling from the sky as Teyla gave her speech, but John was distracted by Rodney shivering violently next to him. John swore under his breath and took off the outer layer of his jacket, wrapping it around Rodney’s shoulders. “You’re from Canada, aren’t you supposed to be immune to the cold?” He hissed under his breath. Rodney shot him a glare. “You know I get cold easily!” He replied in a whisper. “I also know that you do this every year. I’m beginning to think you just like wearing my jacket. You’re lucky I expected this, otherwise I’d just let you freeze!”
Just Peachy by melagan | t, 1.7k, rodney / john
John and Rodney are married and living on Atlantis. They have a rare day off together, but things aren't working out the way Rodney planned.
Lighter Than Air by spurious | g, 2.6k, rodney / john
Visiting a trading partner, the team participate in a winter solstice ritual that's more effective than it might seem.
Like A Shot To The Shoulder (And Other Adventures on MXR-338) by audioletter | g, 2.8k, gen
As far as welcomes go, being shot in the shoulder was not what John considered polite.
Solace by A_Storm_of_Roses | e, 7.2k, teyla / elizabeth
Elizabeth wakes with the hangover of the century and a throbbing elbow. She can’t remember how she got here, or where here even is, though it feels hard and rocky and smells like burning metal. Elizabeth and Teyla take a very long walk, and discover each other.
the snow has drifted high by dedkake | t, 1.7k, rodney / john
Rodney and John watch the New Year's fireworks together, just like they always do.
Wraith Rodney by carsonsweebabyturtles (Erindors) | fanart
This is my Holiday gift for Cassiope25. I kind of gambled at making him a Wraith but I hope you like it anyways 💜
You can’t pin joy like a moth by QueenIshtar | t, 3.7k, john / elizabeth, carson / rodney
Elizabeth knows that you can't pin joy like a moth. It's too fleeting. Joy is the soft fluttering of wings you notice only in the still, silent moments. It's your heartbeat rushing, racing when you laugh; when you feel alive. Joy is not a complete, tangible thing.

cw for some mild body horror/gore
nosferatu adam concept i was plucking away at today, realized that with portraits i'm missing half the customization fun w nossie limbs so couldn't go too ham with variation. wanted to try and base off of lineage and have an appearance that looks mary-esque, one that's casimir-esque, elaine-esque, and then inspiration struck with me trying out a kindred the embraced daedalus look for funsies that went full cenobite that i'm actually really into and sort of fits the v5 nosferatu redux
basically his skin keeps growing over his mouth so every time he wants to feed he's gotta rip it open and talking is difficult
i feel like it's a fun modern mix of mary's curse inflicted pain with her spikes, casimir and athanasia's fucked up jaw situation, and elaine's body falling apart

Chapters: 3/3 Fandom: Dead Boy Detectives (TV) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Edwin Paine | Edwin Payne/Charles Rowland Characters: Charles Rowland (DCU), Edwin Paine | Edwin Payne, Paul Rowland | Charles Rowland's Father, Mary Rowland | Charles Rowland's Mother Additional Tags: Post-Canon, Angst with a Happy Ending, Hurt/Comfort, Charles Rowland Needs a Hug (DCU), Implied/Referenced Child Abuse, Charles and Edwin meet AU-Charles Summary:
“Charles,” Edwin says softly, as they both stare at the man who has just entered the room. “This is-“
“Me,” Charles says, but it comes out sounding like a question, and he realises that he’d meant it as one. He needs confirmation, needs to be sure. He hasn’t seen his own face in decades. “This bloke looks like me, right? Only older. Edwin, I think he is me."
Edwin frowns at him. “But you died.” He says it kindly, like he thinks Charles might have forgotten.
Or: Charles and Edwin accidentally land in an alternate reality that is remarkably similar to their own, with one notable exception: in this reality, Charles never died.

John Sheppard for the character ask meme? :3
How I feel about this character
I love his messy hair, his messy emotions he doesn't want to talk about, his messy relationships, his complicated relationship to his job and the military as a whole, and how much he loves his team. He has so many issues, and I want to explore them all.
All the people I ship romantically with this character
So many. I want him with everyone. My SGA shipping journey started with John/Elizabeth/Rodney, then I fell down the McShep rabbit hole (I love it here), but I'm also very down for John/Rodney/Teyla/Ronon and John/Rodney/Jennifer. I absolutely adore John/Parrish because of a fantastic conversation with Anagrrl that resulted in this amazing fic. I'm also down for John/Cam, John/Evan, John/Evan/Cam, John/Ronon, and more. I'm not sure there's a romantic ship out there with him that I wouldn't at least consider.
My non-romantic OTP for this character
John/Vala. I love them as friends. They barely interact in the show, but John and Vala would get along like a house on fire. And I love them having casual sex and being friends but not being romantically interested in each other.
My unpopular opinion about this character
I don't think I have any truly unpopular opinions about John. I'm pretty flexible about him because I think he can fit a truly astonishing number of headcanons.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.
Honestly, I'm kind of okay with canon because it gave us room to mess around. Part of me wishes John had come out as some kind of queer, but that wasn't going to happen for so many reasons, and I'm actually very okay with it not happening because it leaves us with enough wiggle room to make him whatever we want. I guess I wish we'd gotten more AU versions of him. We had a lot in the Daedalus Variations, but they were all military, and it would've been fun to see some non-military or non-Stargate versions of him.

Season 5 SGA live blogging:
S1, S2, S3, S4
Big ass cliffhanger, Teyla is still being held captive by Michael and the team is racing against the clock to find her before she gives birth only to have a damn building fall on them!
Updates:
- Ronon calling Sheppard buddy 😭
- good lord that was a long ass zoom out
- Ronon and Teyla love eachother so much dude
- "you don't have to do everything yourself" facts Ronon, facts
- awww Rodneyyyyy
- Ronon carrying Teyla and her baby is just so AHHHHH
- HOW DARE YOU REPLACE SAM
- OH NO, THE SEED
- I don't remember how Keller got infected in the first place, during the rescue op for Sheppard, Ronon, Rodney, and Lorne?
- Carson!!
- ahhhhh yeah it was that planet
- I missed Teyla so muchhhh
- poor Sheppard y'all
- it always gets me watching Ronon pace around aggressively when something is hurting people that he can't fight. You can literally see him wanting to punch whatever it is no matter what it is or the fact that it is unpunchable
- of course Rodney stays with Sheppard ♡
- also, does this mean that all wraith hive ships are people??
- love how Woolsey is immediately and very rudely awakened to the reason why "going by the book" on Atlantis does not work
- shouldn't the stuff be attacking Sheppard now that he's cured?
- well, now it is
- did the vine stab Sheppard or just break a rib or something?
- Broken Ties, if this is the episode I think it is I'm about to be very sad
- I love seeing Ronon and Teyla together so much
- Ronon's jacket is so cool
- wait no I think the episode I'm thinking of is one of the last 2
- for all of his faults, I really so love how understanding Woolsey is when it comes to Teyla and her baby
- oof ok I remember what this episode is now and while it isn't the one that I thought it was, I will still be very sad
- Tyre you're a back stabbing little shit and I hate you
- DAMN IT TYRE
- Woolsey really does become quite sweet in SGA
- Rononnnnn AHHHHHHH
- of course Sheppard is the person Rodney goes to when he gets stuck
- Lorne!!!
- Ronon's voice on the verge of tears, BRO
- Kanaan, supportive husband of the year
- WOOLSEY WITH THE BABY PFFFT
- Tyre gets points for helping them get Ronon back but I still hate him for everything else
- let's go Rononnnnn
- Ronon truly looks very coo coo bananas here
- god the acting is so good
- Rodney talking to Ronon while he's unconscious recovering 😭
- Ronon holding the sword after Sheppard gave it to him, AHHHHHH
- ah crap, The Daedalus Variations, this is one of the few episodes that I immediately know by title
- I always wanna yell "DON'T GET ON THAT SHIP!!!"
- The duplicate bodies, AHHHHH
- is Ronon wearing a cardigan? It's fantastic regardless
- I love Rodney's little rectangle backpack so much
- the alternate reality drive is reminding me of the spore drive from Star Trek: Discovery, I still need to finish that
- ok it's not a cardigan but the cut is very similar and I dig it
- Ronon is so good at talking Teyla through stuff
- this other alien race intrigues me so much
- how tf did that dart just zoop through the shield??
-poor Sheppard being the only one who actually knows how to operate the ship in any significant way, Teyla knows a bit but that's it
- Ronon really has a 6th sense y'all
- good lord it takes a lot to down those aliens!
- I wish we got to see more of them so badly. Maybe if we'd gotten another season?
- ahhhh Ronon and Sheppard are the most badass duo ever istg
- poor Ronon y'all, he is not prepared for operating this shit
- since when does Atlantis have F-302s? I mean I know this is an alternate reality but like, you'd assume they'd be jumpers
- alternate reality Atlantis came in clutch tho
- not Sheppard basically flirting with himself XD
- Sheppard and his ds, I love it
- the way Rodney absolutely adores Torren even though he's simatioualy terrified of him is so cute
- I wish we got to see more of the alien fauna so badddd
- Ghost in the Machine, oh boy
- Atlantis going dark is always so freaky and cool
- AHHHHH the Elizabeth episodes always hurt so bad y'all
- I really don't understand why replicators want to ascend so bad, they can live forever, why not just go explore the galaxy now? Why do they need to do it as energy?
- I hate that Elizabeth has this arc
- YOU TELL EM WOOLSEY
- ouch ouch ouch
- The Shrine, ouch ouch ouch
- y'all this episode breaks my heart
- Rodney calling for John, OUCH
- AHHH you can see the organism in the water!!!!
- I know the water would've come through too, but couldn't they have just gotten back into the water and they open the shield just long enough for them to swim through???
- Rononnnnnn, he's so caring and sweet and AHHHH
- the whole thing with Jennifer hurts, Rodney tells her he loves her and she has to watch him fade away
- I don't really understand why the jumpers can't be cloaked while going through the gate, the only reason I can think of is that they made it up to make it difficult
- y'all Rodney coming to John on the verge of tears, desperately coming to him for comfort breaks my heart
- GIVING HIM HIS JACKET
- "you're stuck with me Rodney" HELP
- Sheppard loves that arrogant, whiney man so much
- "I keep seeing a face, everytime I close my eyes. I think it's my mother" BRO
- Keller has come such a long way, I mean she went from a flailing mess on the Bola Kai episode to proposing brain surgery in a damp cave to remove an alien parasite
- Whispers is so cool, it freaks me the hell out, but still cool af. Everytime I see the intro though I think of the SG-1 episode where they can't sleep or they die
- also, love seeing Carson again
- Porter and Mehra irritate me so much though. When characters are supposed to be tough but are either written badly, acted badly, or both, it's just so bad. Same thing with characters that are supposed to be hot, like, yuck.
- pfffft, Sheppard and Carson bonding over being in stasis pods
- I really like Vega though, and Teldy is cool
- I also desperately hate the weird thing between Porter and Carson, like, it makes me WILDLY uncomfortable
- god damn that was a clean ass transition
- VEGA DIES???? BRO
- Mirellus I swear to god
- THE CRAWLING ON THE WALL, HELL NO
- these things are so scary y'all, I love it
- honestly Mirellus, you deserved that. Not only did you release these things but you started screaming about them, like, wtf
- he really could've just grabbed the rope to bring up the bucket instead of using the crank, then used it to lower it the rest of the way
- poor Carson, his first mission back and he gets this
- see Mehra is great when she's being a bit goofy, but the whole dead pan serious tough as nails thing is so bad. I've never once enjoyed a character like that unless they had something else going on. Like, Teal'c and Ronon have personalities on top of that. I just think she was written badly honestly.
- The Queen, oh boy this episode is wild
- I truly do not understand the whole surgery thing. What exactly are they doing to her and how tf is it not permanent or leaving any lasting effects???
- Ronon's little smile at saying they were getting their asses kicked is so cute
- at least they finally got a new actor to play the Primary wraith queen
- ahhhh Ronon loves her so muchhhh
- oooo and new actors to play the wraith dudes too! Let's goooooo
- nice work Teyla, god damn
- Todd, buddy, you're really pushing it rn
- it will never stop being hilarious that Ronon has to get stunned like 8 times to go down
- Teyla is the tiniest wraith I've ever seen and it's so funny
- Tracker, very exciting, I kinda love this eoisode
- Sheppard is so totally jealous about Rodney and Keller
- AH I hate the awkward tension between the 3 sooooo much
- Rodney, Ronon, please be normal for like t seconds please
- the thing I hate about this episode is that they suddenly bring back the thing between Ronon and Keller. They don't mention it for a long ass time and their interactions don't hint to it whatsoever and now all the sudden he's into her again
- also the fact that it's so obvious Ronon loves Teyla so the whole Keller thing is just super weird
- it's weird they don't have a life signs detector with them, or maybe Keller has it
- Ronon and Rodney are both like obsessed with Sheppard (for different reasons), but it's hilarious that when they're without Sheppard, they're just a mess of a duo. Like they cannot agree on anything, they're constantly bickering, it's a mess
- idk about y'all, but I ship Keller with Kyrik more than anyone else
- GET HIS ASS KELLER
- Kyrik is awesome man, I'm really sad we never see him again
- ahhh I hate the awkward love triangle shitttt
- DANIEL!!! First Contact is one of my favorite episodes, I'm so excitedddd
- Daniel and Rodney are so funny together, I love it
- pfffft, Rodney telling him to push against the wall as hard as he could XD
- good lord that attempted speech interaction was awkward as hell
- poor Woolsey XD
- god damn the hyperspace window opening over the water is SO COOL
- I may not like these Asgaurd but they are so damn cool, the way they just completely ignore every effort Atlantis tries to stop them is wild. Shield? Ignored, floors between them and their goal? Going through them. Gun fire? Shields.
- THEY'RE SO BADASS
- the way that the 3rd just no hesitation sacrifices itself so the other 2 can get away with the guys and the device???
- poor Sheppard man, he's been in charge for only like a couple hours and they've been invaded and 2 of their people are taken
- god those two are so sassy I love it
- AHHHH Sheppard and Rodney thinking the same thing is so gay I love it
- the self destruct feature so that no one can find out what they really are??? AHHHH
- y'all, the existential crisis Todd has thinking about who the wraith would be without the war is devastatinggggg
- pfffft Daniel and his immediate urge to talk it out with his kidnappers
- those knockout sticks Todd has are so cool wtf
- the power spike, AHHHH CHILLS
- Sheppard staying with Radek no matter what, he's such a good leader y'all
- the explosion FX is not great lol
- oh shit I forgot this was a 2 parter
- I recognize the travers lady from somewhere
- omfg Rodney stepping between Daniel and the gun, BRO
- oh right she was on One Tree Hill!!
- yeah idk how anyone could ship Ronon and Keller in my opinion, they clash so badly personally wise
- good lord that engineering room gives me and Zelenka anxiety
- PFFFT THE SASSY HEAD BOB RONON GIVES WHEN HE SAYS NO
- THE ASGARD REVEAL
- I can't help but wonder if the war would've ended differently if instead of hiding, the Asgard had helped the Ancients
- man Daniel is really getting tossed around today
- ahhhh I missed Daniel's silly little mannerisms so much
- Keller with a P-90 is dope af, way to go doc
- I'm like 90% sure those "empty suits" had people in them cuz I could kinda see them swaying a bit and I think that's hilarious
- Daniel looks cool af in that suit
- pffft Daniel's little shrug
- Daniel please stop standing right by the damn antenna you're giving me anxiety
- LET'S GO SHEPPARD AND TRAVELER'S
- Daniel you really cannot die again
- "wanna unzip me?" "I'll look for a can opener" PFFFFT
- Ronon may be very emotionally intelligent when it comes to other people's feelings, but when it comes to his own, NOPE
- of course Rodney and Daniel are immediately sassy with eachother now that they're not about to die
- Rodney, please
- Outsiders is such an infuriating episode y'all, the way the villagers turn against these innocent people is just so AHHH
- Jervis I hate you so much, please shut up
- Jervis you are actually like, the worst
- the fact that he thinks that there is even a chance the wraith will keep their word and not destroy their village anyway means he is a damn fool
- Safaris you are also the worst and a fool and I hate you too
- Todd is literally the only wraith we've seen to my knowledge that's actually ever kept his word but even then he steals shit or throws wrenches in the plan every single time
- ok Rodney left out the time they did in fact escape from one of those cells but Ronon had like 80 knives on him that allowed that to happen sooooo
- wraith facial hair is so scrungly looking
- LET'S GO CARSON
- dude has become such a badass since he came back to life
- "you're gonna have to hold them off" "am I now?" PFFFT
- PFFFFT Carson and Rodney shoved into the dart is hilarious
- oh damn
- way to go Rodneyyyyy
- awww, Carson realizing Rodney misses him and taking a break for him 😭
- Inquisition, I have no recollection of this episode so far
- oh wait, oh yeah no I remember this
- honestly the counsel isn't entirely wrong, but they've been trying their best to fix their mistake and they're the best hope this galaxy has of defeating the wraith
- plus the fact that they woke them up early led to the infighting which gave them the advantage to defeat them
- why're they showing clips of the wraith that was converted long after Michael with the consent of the queen instead of Michael's transformation when that's what they were talking about?
- y'all they are fully tripping if they think the Genii's nuclear plan was going to defeat the wraith, there are far too many for them to have succeeded with a plan like that. Working with Atlantis there could've been a really helpful alliance but instead they decided to betray them again and again
- Atlantis has been making a lot of unilateral decisions yes, but like they said, they're the only ones out there fighting them. The ancients failed and there was no one left with the tech or numbers to stand up to them until the expedition showed up
- a lot of their plans have made things worse in some ways, but that's what happens when you're taking action, you can't be sure how things will turn out most of the time but you have to do something
- SG-1 got shit for this too about how they went about fighting the Goa'uld, but again, they were trying. Granted so were the Tok'ra, but they were also letting people die, leaving worlds enslaved, and had completely written off the Jaffa
- not to mention the fact that they've been expending countless resources giving aid to every society in need they come across, most of the time with zero in return
- these people revere the ancients as gods even though they were quite literally the cause of the wraith and replicators existing and abandoned the pegasus galaxy when they realized they couldn't atop the wraith, but now they put the expedition on trial for accidentally stumbling across what they left??? It's not their fault that the ancients left a damn minefield of awful shit across the whole damn galaxy
- I just noticed that Ronon had to physically drag Sheppard away when Elizabeth was sacrificing themselves
- I know that these people are upset but if they didn't wake them and they had those 50 years to prepare, the lives would've been lost anyway, different lives but lives nonetheless. At least with Atlantis here they have the chance to win and save future generations from this ever happening again
- Woolsey you sly dog
- LET'S GO WOOLSEYYYY
- Pfffft wtf was that swivel John XD
- The Prodigal, oh shit here we go
- see, Rodney and Sheppard are literally always spending time together
- I feel for Rodney with the stairs y'all, they are my sworn enemy
- Teyla is so pretty
- god damn it Michael
- damn that door lowering shot was pretty sick gotta say
- Lorne!!!
- Michael's obsession with Teyla is horrifying, he truly does not understand why she won't just go with him
- LET'S GO BANKS
- we don't get a lot of Chuck and Banks but I ADORE THEM, especially her
- YOU GET THEIR ASSES RONON
- Ronon may have technically lost that fight but he gave Teyla the opportunity to run and that's a win in this situation, especially given the fact that that buys them all time
- god I love Sheppard and Rodney during these situations "what do you need? 15 minutes?" And Rodney just rolls his eyes and does it
- Teyla is so resourceful and smart, she can't fight because she's holding a baby but you bet your ass she can kick that mf down the stairs
- the jumpers chairs look so comfy, I want one
- MICHAEL YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH, TEYLA IS A WONDERFUL MOTHER
- YOU STEP AWAY FROM RONON RIGHT NOW
- yessss let's go Radek!!!
- ooooo the fight scene is coming!!!!
- it's soooo over for you Michael
- Sheppard what did I say about hanging off of towers
- MY GOD THIS SCENE IS SO COOL
- YES TEYLA BEAT HIS ASS
- you tried to hurt her baby, you were never getting out of here alive
- god Teyla is so cool help
- Ronon's mission report is so cute
- Remnants, poor Sheppard man, I'm stressed and it's been 2 seconds, I just knw what's about to happen to this man
- also, Rodney's immediate flustered reaction as to why Sheppard would volunteer to spend a night away from Atlantis (him) is so gay I love it
- y'all watching this episode knowing what's actually going on from the start is wild, especially from Sheppard's pov. Bro really just could not help torturing himself
- poor Chuck
- also, have the uniform colors changed a bit? Chuck's looks like a weird dark green and Rodney's is a different blue than I remember. I feel like this must have happened when they changed the uniform style but idk why I'm just noticing.
- are Amelia and Chuck both military???
- ugh, Brain Storm. Malcolm is the worst.
- I hate that they did Bill Nye so dirtyyyy
- the fact that Keller doesn't trust Rodney's instincts that this is a horrible idea is WILD
- "you're smarter than me" "I know" DAMN RIGHT RODNEY
- PFFFFT the Bill Nye slap
- LET'S GO RODNEY
- "I love you. Have for some time now." CALLBACK LET'S GOOOO
- Infection, see now this is the episode I though Spoils of War was initially. This episode is so freaky I love it
- I originally was remembering it as being caused by the Hoffan virus but it's Keller's treatment, I remember now
- the wall melting, SO COOL
- THE MASKLESS WRAITH WARRIORS
- I still ship Rodney and Sheppard, but I will still admit that Rodney and Keller are sweet
- my god the wraith eating people is just such a new horrific thing
- SO FREAKY AHHH
- the massive crater in the ship is so cool
- THE SHIP BEING INFECTED, AHHH SO COOL!!!
- I love wraith shit so much, it's so unique and so cool and freaky
- "we're too late, the pods are opened" AHHHH
- oh my god I love this scene, the hive tearing in half, Rodney freaking out, they're going down y'all!!!
- "impact in 15 seconds" "not if I can help it" AHHHHH
- THE SHIP ENTERING THE ATMOSPHERE, THE TENSION!!!!
- the cgi of the shop landing in the water is rough af but still
- Identity, ah hell I hate this episode
- poor Radek, he was just trying to help
- Vegas is such a weird episode
- Vegas feels like such a random place for them to be, the wraith being there I can understand, but why are John and Keller?
- man I remember watching this episode for the firs time so vividly
- the scene where the wraith is disguising himself is so cool, but also like totally confirmation that wraith would be emo, punk, or goth if they were on earth lmao
- a wraith playing poker will never not be funny
- and the damn finger conversation
- god this chase is so cool, taking the gunfire like it was nothing, leaping down the stairs, thr wall vault, and god damn that no hesitation leap off the roof only to stand back up after slamming into the pavement, AHHHHHH
- SHEPPARD'S FACE
- there is not a single reality where this mf doesn't get dragged into this shit somehow is there
- Rodney!!!!
- alternate reality Todddddd
- I guess Keller was there cuz the government sent her and she was brought back from Atlantis too? Idk
- I'm sorry but an emo wraith wielding dual machine guns is so cool
- rip John
- wait stop this is sad I hate it, his face when he lies down just broke my heart
- ENEMY AT THE GATE, LET'S GOOOOO
- I'm so excited, I may hate that the show ends like this, but my god are these episodes so cool
- I'm honestly shocked the finale isn't a 2 parter
- pfffft Todd in a Deadalus jump suit is so silly, they unfashioned him
- LET'S GO DAEDALUS
- Sam!!!!
- Atlantis is leaving the Pegasus Galaxy y'all!!!
- Davis!! Loved that guy in SG-1
- ah hell the converstaion between Woolsey, Teyla, and Ronon makes me tear up
- one would think they would've adapted some of the shield technology they've come across and used it to defend where the chair was being held in case of something like this. I get they can't protect the whole planet with it but they could at least cover that
- rip chair and area 51
- Sheppard's on yet another suicide mission
- oh shit this is the episode with Ronon that makes me cry
- RONON 😭
- Teyla and Rodney's yells for him break my heart y'all
- I love you random ass wraith for saving Ronon ♡♡♡
- Lorne supporting Ronon, ahhhhhh
- ATLANTIS LET'S GOOOOOO
- KICK THAT HIVES ASS CARSON!!!
- "it's Atlantis, they're engaging the hive!" CHILLS
- AHHHHH
- y'all I'm tearing up this is so cool
- "This is my home" AHHHH
- Ronon is so awkward when he thinks someone is cute I love it
- if it has to be someone other than Teyla, I'm glad it's Banks
- I'm gonna cry, I love this show so much 😭
I hope you enjoyed reading these live blogs, it made me really happy to do it 💛
