Katie's "In the Wrong Story" totally has the sex scene. In my head.
That's a little weird, right? It's okay. I've accepted it.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In the end, it was the over-paralleling that kicked me out of The Scarab. For now, anyway. The long Riley=Jack apologia is jarring. Especially since I don't see it at all.

I must have skimmed that part, ita. I was mostly reading for plot, which I liked.
The story did suffer from what I tend to think of as First Story Syndrome, where the writer feels the need to hit on all the character's hot topics, so we got references to Teal'c's Sholva status, Charlie's death, Share, and so forth. That got a little old.
But in general, it was an ambitious story that managed to integrate both universes, set up an interesting conflict, hold the suspense, and use just about every character in a way that made sense for them. For that, I'll cut them some slack on imperfect voices and the occasional anvil-thumping.

Huh.
It's the weekend after next?
Oh, wait. No, I've got SL as a house-guest that week. ...unless I strongarm her into dog-sitting for me...
Errrr.
Plus there's the whole "you're going to Chicago for what? And not visiting our brother while you're there?" Thing.

Two spots opened up. It's a sign!

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Well, you could always not mention that you're going to Chicago...

Katie, my sister lives a mile from me. It's pretty much impossible for me to duck out of town for a weekend invisibly.

We can give Chicago a code name!
Call it Minneapolis.

Ah. Yes, good point. I forget not everyone has three thousand miles...
