pepper_field: And...
pepper_field: GO!
ami_ven: Earth spaceships are shiny...
pepper_field: Aw, poor Daniel, let him sleep, Cam!
sidlj: Vala's fighting a losing battle with her 'moratorium'
ami_ven: They're so mature, those three
sidlj: Their den mother, er, Sam, wasn't there.
ami_ven: *g*
aurora_novarum: snerk
aurora_novarum: marry poppins, the nanny?
sidlj: Somebody's gotta do it!
sidlj: /moment
pepper_field: Oh, well done, Emerson, you just jinxed it...
pepper_field: It's just another mission, Jackson.
aurora_novarum: yeah, but we need the big moment looking out the window.
ami_ven: well, Atlantis is very pretty
pepper_field: Aw, Daniel, you're finally there!
sidlj: 'Bout time, too.
pepper_field: The lighting in this place is v. weird.
sidlj: Glowy table courtesy of the glowy Ancients?
aurora_novarum: i think so.
aurora_novarum: they were into mood lighting, huh?
sidlj: lol
pepper_field: Heh, someone at last actually asking McKay a question.
sidlj: Cam = fanboy
ami_ven: he honestly did read all the reports *g*
pepper_field: It would really be difficult to get a word in edgeways in this meeting.
sidlj: Oops, Vala! LOL
sidlj: And now a thousand John/Cam fanfics are launched....
sidlj: if this is Disneyland, then SPOILER must be Tinkerbell? *g*
pepper_field: Gah!
pepper_field: Vala: Library? Daniel, REALLY?
sidlj: AGAIN?
pepper_field: Almost a sweet moment, McKay, and you had to go and ruin it. :)
ami_ven: It's funnier knowing she's going to be his boss later
sidlj: It's his speciality. *g*
sidlj: Yes, that adds FUN, doesn't it?
sidlj: It's Tink!
pepper_field: Hee, Weir just called Morgan patronising.
ami_ven: She is very glowy
aurora_novarum: oh yes, I haven't watched this I don't think since Sam as boss.
sidlj: Cam and Rodney are oil and water.
ami_ven: oh, yes
sidlj: Dumbfounded!Daniel
pepper_field: And smug!Vala.
ami_ven: it's always the simple answer, Daniel
pepper_field: See, sometimes it pays to ask the obvious questions! I'm totally with her on that.
pepper_field: Yay, Teal'c! Bored Teal'c, by the sounds of it.
sidlj: Especially when it only takes all of 11 seconds, lol
sidlj: I am hanging loosely, Colonel Mitchell.
pepper_field: Hee, Cam taking his McKay-wrangling duties seriously.
sidlj: I'll bet Cam/Sam shippers love this ep!
aurora_novarum: I was so upset aobut Teal'c not going to Atlantis, until I realized he had his own awesome role.
pepper_field: Vala, all about the going and doing and exotic beverages.
sidlj: Me, too!
sidlj: Daniel, you could handle 2 or 3 at a time, I'm sure.
pepper_field: I dunno, what exactly does McKay think Cam is going to do with that lemon?
sidlj: Atlantis fans HATED that scene. There was an uproar.
pepper_field: It's terribly silly. I can't see McKay being silenced by waving a lemon in his face.
ami_ven: Ancients had serious fashion issues. And how did they keep all that white clean?
sidlj: Er, technology.
aurora_novarum: magnets
ami_ven: clearly, the magnets can't also fix their fashion sense
sidlj: Clearly and also sadly. *g*
sidlj: Oh, I just realized Canadians pronounce "improvisation" differently.
aurora_novarum: snerk
aurora_novarum: it's like they do organization
sidlj: They do?
pepper_field: Does the Atlantis Gate not vapourise a little bit of the floor each time?
sidlj: *handwave*
ami_ven: I'm pretty sure that's the magnets again
pepper_field: Ah.
pepper_field: Those pesky magnets...
sidlj: Trusty ol' magnets.
ami_ven: yep, they fix anything
sidlj: Except fashion sense.
pepper_field: Hee, Weir is like, you're shouting at the library?
sidlj: She's used to crazy people, but Daniel's another story.
ami_ven: She's just not used to his kind of crazy
sidlj: She was blonde when she knew him before, so she, um, forgot.
ami_ven: *g*
pepper_field: Heh, Weir, really, you might want to stop calling Morgan patronising.
sidlj: Hi, Chuck!
pepper_field: It must be really odd to have the library programme you've presumably been using for ages suddenly admit she's alive.
sidlj: For certain definitions of 'alive'
pepper_field: Or maybe it's mostly been a programme - because hanging around pretending to be a library computer sounds a little pointless, even for an Ancient.
sidlj: That makes it sound like she knew Daniel was coming.
sidlj: Which makes sense.
sidlj: Elizabeth trying to teach Vala diplomacy, lol.
pepper_field: Oh, the Ancient quibbling with what is and isn't interfering... oy.
aurora_novarum: and why is she back to calling him "Dr. Jackson" anyway? Sigh.
sidlj: Have they been hanging out with the Asgard?
aurora_novarum: sorry I'm back on Weir. I don't know why, but I think Morgan Le Fay is one of the coolest SG-1 bit characters
sidlj: passionate!Daniel
sidlj: I really do like Emerson. I don't know what it is about him.
pepper_field: He's sort of... real.
sidlj: Yes! Very true.
ami_ven: Stargate is full of awesome secondary characters
pepper_field: He has his particular area of concern, I think - the ship - and he does his best for safety of that.
pepper_field: D'oh. The Ancients are a pain in the backside.
sidlj: Daniel's been there, done that.
sidlj: Teal'c isn't going anywhere, because he rocketh.
aurora_novarum: he's the epitome of awesome
pepper_field: He does!
sidlj: Cuz Bra'tac taught him good.
aurora_novarum: yes
aurora_novarum: the rocketh doesnt' fall far from the mountain?
sidlj: LOL
pepper_field: He just thought he'd stick around, make sure that entire Ori ship was destroyed.
sidlj: And report!
aurora_novarum: twofer!
sidlj: Because the writers are little boys at heart.
pepper_field: Things go BIG BOOM!
pepper_field: Aaaaaaaaand that's not really a surprise, now is it, Daniel?
sidlj: Things in two galaxies, yet!
pepper_field: Can you imagine if they'd tried to go with Ancients vs Ori? I think it would have been... very difficult to televise.
sidlj: Bye Atlantis.

Don't forget, we have the rewatch of 200 this week - puppet team! Invisible Jack! Teal'c P.I.!
grav_ity will be doing the recap for that next week. Check

(You may have noticed that we missed the Uninvited recap this week. If so, you're doing rather better than the mods. We're just... er... getting right on that...)
