Curses! Didn't work the first time. Tryin' again. *crosses fingers*
Okay, I've decided this can't stand anymore! I will not permit it! I've managed to coerce mrsdtaylor into giving SPN a go (check out my comment picspam! (http://community.livejournal.com/discolore/994.html?thread=7650#t7650)), so I'm going to introduce you to Stargate: Atlantis by way of John Sheppard and his hair.
So, this is Lt. Col. John Sheppard, US Air Force. You can call him John, though. Say hi! ("Hi John!!!! You're hot!!!" John: "Why, thank you.")
And this is John's hair.
John's hair either has a life of its own or requires a lot of styling gel. Fandom suspects the former. As you can tell, it's very lively (and invites comparison with Danny's hair before it got all flat and depressed).
John lives in Atlantis--
--which is an ancient city built by the... well, the Ancients, an advanced human-like race. It's a pretty cool place to live. Unfortunately, the Ancients have been gone for the better part of 10,000 years after losing big-time in a war against a very nasty group of creatures called the Wraith, but I won't depress you with that right now. Instead, we'll meet more of John's friends.
So, like I was saying, John and his hair live in Atlantis with a lot of good friends.
This is Ronon Dex (the guy with the hair) and Teyla Emmagan. They're both from the Pegasus Galaxy, which is where Atlantis is. Ronon is kind of new--he just joined up last season--but Teyla's been around for a while. She and John are very good, very platonic, friends.
And this is Dr. Elizabeth Weir and Dr. Carson Beckett. Elizabeth is in charge of the Atlantis expedition. Carson is the chief medical officer. He's also Scottish :D
And this is Dr. Rodney McKay, John's boyfriend, head of the science team.
Rodney's an astrophysicist and engineer, so he's smarter than you are. He's smarter than you and me and the rest of the planet put together and he can kill you with his brain.
Together, John and Rodney have unbelievably hot sex go running around the Pegasus Galaxy, getting into various scrapes as they try to help the Atlantis team stay alive in the face of Unbelievable Peril!!!! and against All Odds!!!!!
And there is much bantering and bickering and snarking, and crazy tech-speak, hypochondria, drama, subtext, and so much else, I can't even begin to describe it. So much fun. 3.10, one of the more recent episodes, made me freak out in almost the exact same way that the WaT S3 finale and 4.01 did. Seriously. It was great. And like WaT, the slash starts almost right out of the gate.
