Ook. i'm really liking this AU. but one question.

who was that at the end?

astrum_presul August 8 2006, 03:58:36 UTC

Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it.

The person at the end was none other than Laura Cadman, Elizabeth's poor, now-tramautized personal trainer. Hence the request for water aerobics.

Oh bummer, i was hoping it was her mother or something and she was going to get an ear-bashing about why the HELL her own mother wasn't told about the drool-worthy specimin on her couch with her.

Sorry to disappoint, maybe Elizabeth's mother will make an appearance in later stories. :)

Thanks for reading!

*tackles* I still love this! They are so sweet and hot and yum.

"Putting up with" your need to write? I seem to recall encouraging it. ;)

astrum_presul August 8 2006, 19:38:52 UTC

*tackles* I'm glad! I was afraid it might get old.

hehee I was just being polite, since we did sit in the student center for about 2 hours more than we had to.

Great!!!

Oh, poor Laura, no she'll need Carson to help her erase that image off her mind! lol

astrum_presul August 8 2006, 19:40:18 UTC

Thanks! :) I'm glad you liked it!

Hehe, yes, poor Laura! But she'll get through it, I'm sure of it.

johnliz4ever August 8 2006, 08:46:58 UTC

I love this.
Trust Laura to walk in at that time.

I must say I love the way Teyla and Elizabeth's friendship is being written and the not-quite flirting between the two of them is great

astrum_presul August 8 2006, 19:43:14 UTC

*grin* That makes me happy to hear! I'm glad you're enjoying the series!

I'm glad you like their interaction! I got a kick out of writing it.

agentcat47 August 8 2006, 22:01:54 UTC

HAHAHAHA!! That was so awesome. Goooodness, that was Laura at the end? Poor girl! Obviously, John and Liz are naked under that afghan. *wiggles eyebrows*
Enjoyed that so much. I'm glad she fired him so she wouldn't have to lose him. Gotta get him another pool to fix, though! Either that, or more planes. Excellent work! Have you figured out a name yet for a community? And if you make a community, which I know a friend did the other day for her AU, she's the only writer of the community's fics. Will you be the only writer too? I think it's a kinda cool idea to just have one or two writers who really know the story line, but whatever you want. :D MOOOORE!

Ooh, I see Lantean Manor is the name! Very cool. A nice name because it's not just about the pool, but about the whole house, where all the action takes place. Awesome work!

astrum_presul August 9 2006, 00:20:43 UTC

Thanks very much! I figured 'Lantean Manor was general enough to encompass the pool, the people, and the craziness of their lives.

:)

astrum_presul August 9 2006, 00:19:39 UTC

Thanks! *beams* You have no idea how happy it makes me to hear that it was enjoyed.

I've not yet decided how much outside participation I want, but I do know that I've got at least one more story I'd like to tell before I open it up, if I open it up. Since, I want everyone to enjoy the universe, and I know I won't have a lot of time once classes begin, I'm toying with the idea of opening it up for anyone.

:) I've got another in the works right now. The third story is taking a little longer than the first two did. Keep watching for it!
