No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I just figure they're offscreen. Probably trying to hide the relationship from everyone else, though Teyla knows. Probably everyone but McKay knows.

As much fun as slashy goodness would be, I think there'd be just as much to mine from not actually having characters involved but everyone around them knowingly reacting as if they are.

TEYLA: Rodney, I just want to reassure you that I am quite certain Ronon and Colonel Sheppard merely respect each other as warriors and comrades. You have no cause for worry.
McKAY: Why would I be worried? And why do people keep coming up to me to say that?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I've never seen the slashy between Ronon and Sheppard, but I would be willing to pretend I did, just to watch that scene, Matt.

When we kill people it makes the policemen flustered and stern.

And here I was trying to imagine a sissy version of Tyr and Sheppard Book with the mingled body fluids.

Andromeda was good for about the first 3/4 of a season, then I quit watching it.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Oh, that's awesome. I can so see that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There were some good Andromeda moments in S2 -- one of those eps still holds the "Best Clip Show" title for me, and it'll take some dislodging.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I now work on Stargate:Atlantis.

Dude, do you have a Zelenka? I want a Zelenka. Okay, I sort of have one, but he's not a great version. I want the real thing.

I'm having a memory for which I have no cite: The Serenity cast talking about not resuming the series, because it didn't feel right after making a movie.

Can anyone back me up on that? Or am I hallucinating?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Joss said, "The series is over," or WTTE.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Chris Buchanan and Adam Baldwin both said that it wouldn't ever happen.
