She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

You know Jack isn't going to be happy behind a desk!

Although I'm amazed he thinks he didn't have one. How did he write his mission reports until this point?

That was fun. It was kinda goofy, handwavey Stargate, with lots of running around and no real threat anywhere. I loved the scenes at the end, where Jack goes to his team for advice (I'm much with the team-love these days), and his glee at promoting Sam. Quite sweet, really.

The new goa'uld kept reminding me of Lindsey.

Is this the first time we've heard the goa'uld talk about honor and shame? I thought they were psychotics, all about power -- why do they care about reputation? I'm just a tiny bit concerned this is leading to a retcon of goa'uld psychology that may not hold up.

Oh, also, Weir didn't seem that concerned about being alone in a room with a goa'uld, no matter how pretty. Did she not get the memo about how they can take over your body? Or kill you easily with their superior strength?

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

He was kidding. *denial*

Was it the goa'uld talking about that, or just Yu's First Prime? The Jaffa have always been an Honorable Alien Race (tm), if on the other side. And the goa'uld do seem to have a grasp on pride; they're very big on image.

RE Weir alone in the room with Camulus... yeah, I thought the same thing. Presumably there was constant monitoring or, um, something.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The Jaffa do it. I think the Goa'uld give lip service to it.

Or what Katie said.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I'm much with the team-love these days

That's it in the nutshell. I totally concur on the goofiness and the need for copious handwaving and the often glaring lack of emotional continuity on the show but the team! They are so freakin' adorable when they are together. Like Tripoli's icon says, OT4, baby.

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

The door was open, I noticed.

Suuuure he was. Sigh.

Once it was Yu's FP, once it was Camulus.

I liked the not!desk, because it made me think of Scully, who presumably wrote reports too.
