June Something - Day 5

[popkin16]

You get to fuck/marry/kill in one fandom. What's the fandom, and who in the fandom fits each item?

Fuck: I'm asexual so this is a difficult question. While I find fanfic hot, the idea of anyone touching me in particular makes me go NO THANKS very fast. I'd probably go with John Sheppard as the most visually appealing character, and he doesn't seem the type to be all that sex driven. I mean, he likes it (I assume, since he never comes right out and says it), but he's not constantly hitting on hot women soooo.

Marry: Chucknician! We don't see a lot of him in canon, but he seems competent and cute. And he could tell me all the gossip about what he sees and overhears in the gateroom ;) That's the thing with minor characters - you can make what you will of them, and Chuck in my head is just a nice, fun guy.

Kill: I want to go for someone obvious like Kolya or Michael. Or Todd. All really good choices for obvious reasons. But instead, I'm going to go with Ladon Radim just for the fun factor. He cares about his people and his sister, yes, but I could never trust him. What game is he playing now? What does he want? Is he just using me to get info on Atlantis (assuming I'm living there lol). The constant stress would give me a breakdown.

I'm shocked you didn't pick Rodney McKay to marry. Absolutely shocked. Have you taken your temperature recently?

[popkin16]

I love Rodney McKay more than any other character. That being said, I absolutely could not live with him. It takes a lot to make me mad, but once I am mad, I've been known to clear a room. I feel like it would not be good for our marriage lollllll. Rodney needs someone calmer to stabilize him, poke fun, or call him on his bullshit. I'd just punch him.

[mific]

Hahaha, oh man, yeah, Rodney'd be hard to live with! Which is why that's John's job! :D

I bet you like that genfic by Copperbadge about Chuck and Ronon's friendship - My Home and Native Land.

[popkin16]

What makes John and Rodney work is they balance each other out and know how to handle one another. I...do not.

I LOVE that genfic by Copperbadge!

Ace pride, baby! ::fistbump::

Good ole Chuck! I don't write him very often, but when I do he's usually the hub of Atlantis gossip. Excellent choice!

[popkin16]

::fistbump:: HELL YEAAAH, ACE PRIDE. I even have a bracelet made up of the ace colors.

Thanks :D Chuck seems like such a sweetie.

[brumeier]

I ordered some Ace pins but by the time they get here Pride month will be over. LOL! I'll still stick them on all my things.

[popkin16]

I actually just ordered one of these rings. I really like simple designs so these were PERFECT.

[brumeier]

Those are really cute!

[popkin16]

I thought so too :D

[ruric]

I completely agree with your assessment of Chuck! I bet all the sane and stable people work in the Gate room - you send the wildcards venturing off planet *G*

Kill Ladon? Nooooo (if only because I really, really like Ryan Robbins and wish someone would give him a starring role in a series)!

[popkin16]

LOL I like the way you think re: keeping the sane people in the Gateroom. I do think it takes a particular type of crazy to agree to joining an offworld team.

Ryan Robbins is a fantastic actor and I wish he were in more things! But I just can't trust that Ladon Radim!

[logicgunn]

There should have been more Chuck. And also Marie.

Radim is a sneaky fucker, I'm right there with you on that one.

[popkin16]

More Chuck, more Lorne...who's Marie? Is she a nurse?

THANK YOU. Like, morally grey characters are fun as characters, but as somoene to be married to? I couldn't do it lolll.

[logicgunn]

She's a nurse. She's in it every so often. I wanted her to have a bigger role so much.

[popkin16]

Oh, her! I love her :D I would have definitely liked to have seen more of her.

[squidgiepdx]

OOhh... Ladon Radim. I would have never considered him - but that makes perfect sense to me.

[popkin16]

I'm glad you think so :D I worried he would be too off-the-wall a choice.

[squidgiepdx]

No, I think it's perfect. And it honestly makes so much sense. I thought that Kolya would be way too obvious (and Keller, coming from me). But you couldn't really trust Ladon Radim beyond the next few seconds, and even then it would be with him under heavy guard...

[popkin16]

I thought about choosing Keller, I won't lie lol.

The thing with Ladon Radim is that he's clever, with both his words and his actions. So even under heavy guard, every word he says is carefully calculated to manipulate you into giving him what he wants. And you're never sure what he wants until he's ready to reveal it.

Atlantis has enough on its plate without dealing with an ambiguous ally.
