The proud pose of a schizophrenic patient with delusional ideas of greatness

Если Злого Волка одомашнить и выдрессировать, будет Гуд Дог) Если бы Сутех стал Гуд Догом, Кейт пригласила бы его работать в ЮНИТ? )))))

If the Bad Wolf is domesticated and trained, it will be a Good Dog) If Sutekh had become a Good Dog, would Kate have invited him to work at UNIT?)))))

Вы никогда не думали, что Стивен Диллейн выглядит и актёрствует так, как будто должен был засветится в Докторе Кто?

Have you ever thought that Stephen Dillane looks and acts like he was supposed to be in Doctor Who?

WHY NOT?

После долгого дня Кейт приходит домой, и обнаруживает лепестки роз в коридоре. Она точно знает, что это Игрушечник издевается над ней. After a long day, Kate arrives home to find rose petals in her hallway. She knows for certain it's the God of Games messing with her.

You know, I've seen so many fanfictions about the Living Atlantis, and I was very disappointed that we weren't given a series where Atlantis would be human. Like the Tardis with the 11th Doctor in "The Doctor's Wife". I think I desperately miss it.

Знаете, я видел столько фанфиков про Живую Атлантиду, и был сильно разочарован, что нам не дали серию, где Атлантида была бы человеком. Как Тардис с 11 Доктором в "Жена Доктора". Я думаю, мне отчаянно не хватает этого.

I've been struggling with a migraine and light sensitivity the last few days. I've watched some SGA but am struggling to even remember which episodes I watched. I think I watched Echoes, Tao of Rodney, and McKay and Mrs. Miller. Season 3 really does have some of the best episodes.

This morning, I decided it was time to start rewatching some of the good but hard episodes, which really are my favorites. I started with The Last Man and Search and Rescue.

The Last Man is one of those episodes where you really see how the city lights up for Sheppard. I don't remember which of y'all first put that in the tags, but I love it so. His home is always waiting for him, ready to light up. You see this as each corridor flickers on as he's walking through, like they remember him.

Rodney tells Sheppard they have to get him back in two months or everything is lost. Rodney explains about Teyla and then has to tell Sheppard it's not his fault. Like, holy cow dude, it's not your fault Teyla died. You go sucked 48,000 years into the future. (I totally relate to this. I'm very prone to taking on burdens that aren't mine. Not to share them, but feeling responsible for things in not responsible for.)

Guys! Sam's ship is the Phoenix. A Phoenix rises from the ashes. Is this a tiny ray of hope? A tiny bit of foreshadowing wrapped up in one word? Right in the middle of all the horror of what happened to his family, we have a ship named the Phoenix. And you know what the next episode is? Search and Rescue!

Having seen several seasons of SG-1, Sam's death hits hard.

Also, it's heavily implied that Woolsey himself is a better man because of Sheppard, which I find endearing.

Sheppard is concerned that if he gets sent back, he'll mess up Rodney's timeline, where he survives and gets the girl. Could this man be more selfless?

Um, Lorne has his Atlantis painting on the wall. The one from Sunday. Why did that make me cry?

This is the ultimate We Don't Leave Our People Behind episode. Even though they don't actually say that, they show it. Do y'all remember early on in season 1 in one of the earliest episodes Rodney wants to do something and Sheppard tells him that if it doesn't work it will take then like 200 years by puddle jumper to rescue him? Rodney asks if they'd come for him anyway, and Sheppard, deadpan, says sure. Well, Sheppard is trapped 48,000 years in the future, and Rodney spends 25+ years getting him back. It's not a sarcastic sure. It's an absolute solid yes because we don't leave our people behind, and each of our people is important. Without everyone together, we can't win this thing.

Search and Rescue is a trip.

Highlights include:

"As a rule, I like to keep the daring rescues down to one a day." - Caldwell

Ronon, the total mother hen, to Sheppard: Give it to me. You don't have to do everything.

Rodney delivering Teyla's son is never not special.

Sheppard leads the way in trusting Kanaan because Teyla trusts him.

Sheppard with the baby is epically beautiful. And I love Caldwell: Major Marks, please make that ship go away.

If you don't want a huge amount of psychic damage, make sure you watch these two episodes together. They're really great!
