Oh, I was howling at the "bed spontaneously explodes" moment. Though for a second I wasn't sure if it was a preventative measure on Atlantis' part or the result of them putting it to use.
Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

More like Omnipotent!Barbie, who got into a brief romantic fling with Sheppard under false pretenses before divulging to him that her great rack (and the rest of her body) was just a figment of her imagination.
Back when Consuela (I think) posted a link to that LJ user who was doing funny sketches of Aquarium by request, I put in a bid for Shep and Samantha Carter to be comparing notes about their respective advanced glowy energy-being booty calls with McKay fuming in the background, uncertain of/over whom he was more jealous.

Thrive to spite them
Chaya is an Ancient who ascended (I think) but still wanted to help her people --the Ancients don't deal with coporeal people and they didn't like her wanting to help. So they cursed her! Her curse was to only use her powers to help those on her planet.
The SGA team goes to her planet and find out this planet doesn't know the Wraith, but they have a "priestess" Chaya. She hits it off with Shepard and they take her back to Atlantis.
Well, at some point Chaya and John have a sort of date and kiss.
But from the moment she showed interest in John Rodney went insanely jealous and suspcious of her. Supposedly for technical reasons, but he acts more like she's trying to steal his boyfriend. He tries to prove she's hiding something, and eventually it comes out that she's an Ancient.
The Wraith go after her planet, she kills the Wraith, but can't help Atlantis, so they can't come back.
But, before they go, she and John "Share" which means they sort of touch and Chaya goes all glowy, so it's probably the Ancient verison of glowy sex.
I can't remember if in canon Rodney finds out about the glowy sex, but in most fanfic stories he does, and is, of course, still insanely jealous.

Yeah, the jealous mistrust started on McKay's part long before Chaya was brought back to Atlantis. Right around the time Shep started pouring on the charm and acting friendlier to her than to the standard nondescript aliens, in fact.

And there's a fantastic Lord King Bad Vid done for this episode, called "Jolene", all about it. So very funny. I think it's Zoe Rayne's.

She used the White Stripes cover of that song (i.e., sung by a guy named Jack, with no pronouns changed), which I'm now sure will now be used unironically by lots of 12 year old vidders forevermore.
