Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can you deliver me one of those? Please make sure the Doctor comes with (9, 10, 5, or 4--in order of preference).

"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
SGA:
Atlantis (or Lantea, whateverthefuck they call the Lantean homeworld) is really a deathtrap of a place anyway. Killer hurricanes every 10,000 years, killer sunspots every 15,000.
I think the universe itself is trying to get rid of the Ancients. First there was a plague that kills people with healing powers who can survive being frozen in ice for millions of years. Then the iratus bug somehow mutates into super-strong immortal telepathic space vampires who overrun their galaxy. Their new homeworld's sun develops a hiccup that fires lased plasma bolts at their planet every 15,000 years (and higher animals would never have developed there if that had been happening for millions of years). The replicators that they designed as a weapon turned on them. The fundie inquisitor cousins they fled eons ago somehow find a way to evolve and ascend while making the sign of the Evil Eye at scientific advancement. Every time one of them pops out of stasis they're struck down by runaway geriatric feebleness within moments, despite the fact that they could live thousands of years out of stasis. When the last of them show their faces after 10,000 years in the intergalactic void, it's about 6 weeks before the aforementioned rogue replicators pop up and kill them all.
Seriously, if the Ori hadn't ascended after most of the Ancients died off, I'd suspect them of laying some kind of curse on their more scientifically minded cousins.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Cass, while you're at it, could you swing 7 (companion package only) by for me?

Oh, and when I said order of preference I meant that's the order I'd prefer you to send me them in. All of them.

Who 3.4.:
what bothered me was that even in the Thirties I'm pretty sure you couldn't see the Empire State Building from Liberty Island. Certainly not as big as they had it. It's Midtown, not Downtown.
I've still only seen the first six minutes of the ep, because my dad called while we were watching, and I paused the file, and then it broke. It's never happened before. Thank God for the Sunday night repeat on BBCTHREE. We'll catch up tonight.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I'm sorry, ita. I've got 5 chained up in the basement for the foreseeable future. Feel free to stop by for a visit, though.
