The Crazy Thoughts of a Musketeer

Lemming time! (aka yes, a meme I got from elsewhere) :D

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 02:34:27 GMT

OK, because I'm a glutton for punishment I have snagged this meme from bjjones and nufaciel .

And yes...I'm totally expecting revenge...

Just a note, fandoms that I do not know well or at all I'll comment back and ask for another pairing.

Give me two characters, each from different fandoms (and can we keep it to fandoms I know something remotely about, please?), and I will write a snippet or ficlet about those two characters interacting in some way.

Godfrey was sitting in Lord Edward Pevensie’s study sharing a drink with him. The door creaked open very slowly and a pair of wide blue eyes topped with sandy blonde hair poked in the door.

“Peter, come here, son,” Edward called the frightened seven year old to him. The boy scrambled to his father and into his lap. “What’s wrong?”

“Bad dream,” he sniffled, burying his face in his father’s strong shoulder to hide his tears.

“Would you like to tell me about it?” he coaxed.

The young boy looked up and Godfrey saw the look of an old soul in his eyes.

“There was anger...and sadness and fire. You could smell metal and hear yelling.”

“You’re safe here, son,” Edward reassured, stroking the sandy blonde locks. Peter lay his head against his father’s shoulder again and dozed off.

Godfrey waited until Peter was asleep before speaking up. “He has an old soul, one that has been through a lot.”

“You think he’s dreaming of the past?” Edward asked.

“It’s possible.”

Edward himself had come from a long line of Chosen Ones. Godfrey did not know them personally until he became Edward’s advisor and friend. The good thing was that he did not have to explain much to him when it came to Vampire history or past lives.

They sat quietly, listening to Peter’s soft breathing. Godfrey took that time to watch the father and son. He’d missed those moments with his own child, Balian, not finding out about him until he’d returned to the village eight years later. By the time he really connected with Balian he was a grown man. He contemplated his son a bit while watching Edward with Peter. Eventually the two men finished their drinks and adjourned for the evening.

~ * ~

A few days later they went to a neighboring village to deal with some business, Peter tagging along. While they were speaking with one of the buyers, Peter wandered to the blacksmith shop. After a quick, frantic search for the boy, they found him running a scrutinizing eye over one of the swords before he picked it up for a closer look.

While Edward and the blacksmith chuckled, Godfrey gasped and stood there transfixed.

Peter looked at him with a look he hadn’t seen in over a hundred years.

“The balance is off,” Peter commented before setting the sword down and running to his father excitedly. “Did you see what the blacksmith was doing father? It was very neat! I want to be a blacksmith father.”

“You are still young little one,” he chuckled. “We shall see.”

They left soon after and Godfrey was quiet the entire way home, causing Edward to worry about his friend. He got Peter settled when they arrived home and then went in search of his advisor.

“Would you like to talk about what happened back in the village?”

“You know how I told you our loved ones return to us?” Godfrey began and Edward nodded. “I had a son. He was average height with a muscular build; dark curly hair and brown eyes. I saw him for the first time when he was eight but didn’t meet him until he was in his late twenties. His name was Balian and he was a blacksmith. It was early on in the Crusades when I came upon him again and he was already so tired mentally.”

He paused to gather his thoughts. “He had just lost his wife. She had a miscarriage and some of the townsfolk convinced her it was her fault so she decided she should no longer live after killing her baby. The town ostracized him for what she had done, and the priest, his half brother, going as far as saying that she was burning in Hell for what she had done and that their child was probably with them. Just before his brother showed I had offered for him to come with me.”

He looked up at Edward, who was listening intently.

“His brother kept pushing him until he took the blade he was working on and ran him through,” Godfrey continued. “He grabbed his things from the burning shop and came to me, wanting to go to Jerusalem to seek forgiveness for his family.”

Godfrey turned to look out the window. “I was turned two days later and whisked off to Egypt. He continued on and eventually was the one who handed the city over after much fighting and bloodshed. He then made his way across the desert and joined us in Egypt but he was already so tired. I finally got a chance to know my son and asked him if he wanted to be turned but he refused. He said that he had seen and done too many things for him to live with for eternity. Said that next time we met I could turn him then.”

He dropped into the seat across from Edward and waited.

“Peter has Balian’s soul, doesn’t he?” the boy’s father asked.

“Yes.”

“That’s why you reacted the way you did earlier,” Edward commented.

Godfrey nodded and smiled. “When he picked up that sword I saw the same look Balian would get. He could find the tiniest flaw in a piece of metal work, used to drive the Medjai blacksmiths crazy.”

“So my son is your son and my daughter is your Mate.” Edward shook his head and smiled. “At least I know that a good man is going to look after my children after I am gone.”

Godfrey smiled and thought back to the day they had found out that little baby Susan was his Mate. Edward had handed her to Godfrey to hold for a bit, and as soon as he looked into her eyes, he knew. They both knew that normally a Vampire would have to leave his young Mate until they grew up but since they were normally away on business or taking part in battles, they didn’t see why he should have to leave.

“Well the dreams about fire and metal make sense now,” Edward commented. “So what do we do? Do we tell him eventually?”

“Unless he remembers it first but we won’t have to worry about it for quite some time,” Godfrey explained. “For now we let him be a child and if he ever finds out about Vampires, we let him make the choice of being turned without influence.”

“Sounds like a plan,” Edward agreed. “Godfrey, if something happens to me I want you to look after the children, especially our boy; don’t let him take on too much.” And to Godfrey that statement made it clear that his friend did not intend to be turned.

“Of course my friend,” he said as they lapsed into silence while contemplating the future.

~ Jail Cell in New Orleans ~

John Francis and Nick Sawyer sat across from each other glaring.

"This is all your fault!" Nick growled at his childe as he examined the jail cell that they were both sitting in at the moment.

"How is this my fault?" John asked.

"Because you started the fight. How come whenever a woman is involved you lose all common sense?!"

"Me?! I was just defending her, she said she didn't want his company and he wouldn't back off. Not. My. Fault!"

"Johnathon, I swear that you will drive me insane one day," he grumbled.

"You are already there, Tony beat me to it," John smirked as Nick growled again.

"These are the two men you were talking about?" a familiar voice asked as two men entered the room.

"Yes sir," the officer said.

"No, I'm sorry, I don't know either of them."

"Antonio Crisafi if you don't get me out of here right now you will regret it!" Nick yelled.

"I'm sorry, you must be delusional sir, my name is Anthony Mallard," he replied with a smirk before turning to the officer again. "I'm just curious, what are they in here for?"

"Well sir, they assaulted one of the wealthiest men in town, then they caused the local bar to burn to the ground during the bar fight that followed," the officer replied. "They are in here until they can be taken to trial for assault and destruction of private property."

"He was assaulting a...ow!" John yelled in the middle of defending himself as Nick stepped on his foot.

"My sympathies for having to deal with such trouble makers officer," Tony said as he turned to leave. "Someone should really get the riff raff of this town under control."

"He is so dead when I get out of here," Nick mumbled as they left.

John just snorted. "You know, he's never going to let us hear the end of this, right?"

"I know."

~ Later that night ~

"Did you hear that?" Nick whispered.

"It was probably a mouse, would you please let me sleep?" John mumbled disgruntled.

"I swear," that same familiar voice said, "having to be bailed out of trouble, I hope you all have learned your lesson."

”You think that they would know better by now,” Timothy Connell commented.

"Tony, I swear if you don't get me out of here I will let Timothy use you as target practice for throwing his broad sword."

"Geez pops, calm down," Tony said as he grabbed a bench and flipped it upside down. “He sure does get cranky when he gets tossed in jail,” he commented to Tim. He shoved the legs of the bench between the bars and used it as a lever to pop the door off it's hinges.

"Where did you learn to do that?" John asked.

"He's had to break himself out enough times that he ought to know," Nick said.

"Actually I learned that little trick from our good friend William Turner when we broke Warrick and Jack Sparrow out of jail one time," Tony answered as he led Nick and John out of the jail. "You'd think that these cell makers would learn eventually."

Sylum Fic: Special Delivery (Stargate: Atlantis - FRT - John Sheppard, Evan Lorne)

Rating: FRT
Notes: I would like to thank Bev for allowing me to play in the Sylum sandbox. This is just a short one to explain a detail from Bev’s Family Arc. THIS IS APPROVED SYLUM CANON!

Major Evan Lorne contemplated the long, locked box in his hands as he walked to where he'd been directed to find Lt. Colonel John Sheppard's quarters.

As he walked he thought back to the phone call he had received right after the decision to go to Atlantis had been made. The command staff had been sent back immediately on the Daedalus with the new team members joining after the ships return trip in a few weeks.

*Flashback*

Evan was sitting in his apartment near Cheyenne Mountain when his cell phone went off. He mentally added canceling his plan to his list of things to do before answering his phone.

"Lorne."

"Yes, this is Nick Stokes, I was wondering if you could do me a favor."

Lorne wondered what the clan leader needed him to do. They had never met but he remembered Daniel mentioning him. "I can try, sir, what do you need me to do Mr. Stokes."

"It's Nick, and I need you to get a package to John for me if you could. It's on route now to Jack O'Neill and he'll have everything squared away for it's transport."

"Yes, sir, that will not be a problem."

"Thank you Major, and if you need anything just let us know, we'll be happy to help take care of things around here, inform Jack of what needs to be done and it will be handled."

"General O'Neill? Why not Dr. Jackson?"

"Because of it's not covered in dust or dirt, what do you think will happen?"

Evan just chuckled, "Good point, sir. I need to finish packing but I'll be sure to get that package to Colonel Sheppard for you."

"Good luck over there and enjoy yourself," Nick said as he hung up.

*End Flashback*

Evan reached his destination and knocked on the door, waiting a few minutes for it to slide open.

"Major, can I help you?" John asked looking a bit puzzled.

"Actually, sir, I have something for you, special delivery from France," he said as he entered the room when John motioned him in.

He handed him the box and watched while he opened it.

John smiled brightly and pulled a sword out that had a note attached to it. While he pulled the note off to read, Evan's attention was drawn back to the sword. He blinked a few times trying to figure out why it seemed so familiar.

"Major...Evan?" John tried to get his attention, and Evan blinked and shook his head as if to clear it.

"Sorry, sir, I think I"m tired from the trip," he told him. "What does the note say if you don't mind me asking?"

"It says 'For when I need a musketeer at my side again.'" At Evan's questioning look he elaborated. "This is my sword from my musketeer days. I wasn't there during the recent clan war. I was stuck here and wasn't able to help my clan defend themselves against some old adversaries."

"And it bothered you that you couldn't be there and this is his was of inadvertently making you feel better," Lorne filled in with a small smile.

"Are you sure you haven't met Nick before?" John chuckled. "Go get some rest Major, tomorrow is your first day as second in command, and trust me, I plan to take full advantage of that."

"Yes, sir, see you in the morning," Evan said before exiting the room and heading to his own for some much needed sleep.

WIP Meme

Sat, 07 Mar 2009 06:47:14 GMT

Post a single sentence from each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick). No context, no explanations. No more than one sentence!

Actually I'm glad I saw this meme, it let me go through and see so stories that had been pushed aside for the moment. Some are done (or almost there), some are still very much WIP and some you're going to have to be patient and wait for them :D But here is a little peek at what I've been working on over the past year.

1. All Alexander Richard Huntley could recall from the past week was a lot of tears and sadness.

2. "And you don't sleep with Aunt Evy?" Alex asked innocently causing Rick to sputter and choke on his drink.

3. "You," he pointed to Alex, "got a tattoo! And you," he pointed to Ardeth, "knew about it!"

4. "Come with me Major," John instructed. They went to John's quarters and he motioned for Evan to sit down as he pulled out a bag and began to pack a few things in it.

5. "How come whenever a woman is involved you lose all common sense?!"

6. "Actually sir, I have something for you, special delivery from France," Evan said as he entered the room when John motioned him in.

7. D'Artagnan smiled and gave in, "just a little bit longer," he said as Phillipe's eyes started to droop and he fell asleep.

8. John got a small smile on his face and pulled Phillipe into his lap.

9. "Sherman had better be setting Columbia on fire again for someone to be bothering us this time of the day," Warrick growled into the phone.

10. "Well, I see you've got money and sex covered, now all you need is drugs and you've got a wonderful scandal for the LVPD," John joked.

11. "Well sweetheart," Alec drawled, causing the man with glasses and spiked hair beside her to glare. "I've got more business out here than you and geek boy over there do."

12. Caspian in turned smacked his mate in the back of the head just before Edmund came running over, yelling as he tackled Peter to the ground.

13. "You made me a faun?!"

another meme

Thu, 22 Jan 2009 05:21:16 GMT

Here is another meme, this time I blame sylum_tru

(1) List 16 celebrities you would have sex with without even asking questions.
(2) Put all of them in order of your lust for them. (1 is the hottest.) - I did my best here in ranking them...it's hard with a group like this :D
(3) Say which movie/show/thing it was that hooked you.
(4) Supply photos.

1) Jensen Ackles - The first thing that hooked me was seeing him on Days of Our Lives. I started watching when he came on the show and I basically quit watching when he left. Somehow I missed him on Dark Angel but then caught up with him again on Smallville and then SPN :D

2) Orlando Bloom - Lord of the Rings, even with the blond hair and blue contacts he was one sexy man in the movie. Then Pirates of the Carribean...even better. Then probably one of my personal favorite movies, which I will honestly say I would still like if he wasn't in it, Kingdom of Heaven.

3) Christian Kane - First time I saw him he was playing the evil lawyer Lindsey that we all love to hate on Angel. Even though he was a bad guy he made him a likeable character by the end of it all. Now I just love watching him in Leverage...especially when he gets all disgruntled :D

4) Ryan Lochte - Oh my dear Lochte :D What is there to say about you? The first time I really took notice of him (besides the diamond grill incident at the World Championships and Athens 2004) was in this years Olympic Trials. He only lost to Phelps byfractions of a second. He's absolutely adorkable and so laid back it's hard not to like him.

5) David Boreanaz - First time I saw him was in Buffy though I have to say that I didn't really start to love him until he crossed over to Angel. Fortunately he has only gotten better as he goes on cause he is absolutely hilarious on Bones ('I'm glad we started a revolution!')

6) Eddie Cahill - Did I mention that it's all Eddie Cahill's fault? I watched Miracle which led me to find CSI: NY then to Miami then it all just snowballed from there. He's adorable, he's sarcastic, what's not to love there?

7) Dylan Bruno - He's definitely been a nice addition t Numb3rs since he joined the cast and quickly became one of my favorite characters. So much so that with the whole double agent/triple agent dibacle last year I seriously quit watching the show...that is until I realized he was still in the credits for the next season so I had to quickly catch up on what happened.

8) Ben Barnes - Prince Caspian was adorable, even with his funny accent. Though I must say that I am looking for to future films from him (such as the one with Jessica Biel and the movie Dorian Gray). Hopefully someone will be nice to Walden Media so we can also get the third Narnia movie *crosses fingers*.

9) Jeffrey Dean Morgan - *fans self* Even with his fake Irish accent he is still hot. First saw him in SPN as Papa Winchester and like the rest of the Winchester boys he is definitely wonderful to look at :D

10) Tom Welling - Smallville baby! Of course I do love Oliver Queen too...and I should probably include him up here somewhere, but Smallville, once I could get the channel, was one of my favorites for a long time, and still is most of the time. I love the whole going back in time and making Clark and Lex 'friends'. Tom Welling just makes it that much more worth watching.

11) Carmine Giovinazzo - Eddie Cahill's fault, totally :D First saw him in CSI: NY.

12) Vin Diesel - Have you seen his arms? (and yes, cuddle pile, I have an arm fetish :D ) I believe the first thing I saw him in was probably the Fast and the Furious but have like just about everything he's been in, except Babylon A.D...that movie was just plain wierd, and that's saying something coming from me. And may I just mention that I can't wait for the sequel to come out?

13) Kavan Smith - It's Kavan, he's adorable on SGA, he's adorable on 4400...though I must say that I especially love him in Doppleganger where he is sleep walking, bare feet and messy hair FTW.

14) Michael Weatherly - First saw him on NCIS, and fell in love with his character.

15) Kiefer Sutherland - First saw him in one of my favorite movies of all time, The Three Musketeers (Disney style :D ). Didn't really keep track of much of his stuff after that because at that point I was a wee bit young but when he came on TV to play Jack Bauer in 24...HELLO!

16) Jared Padalecki - You can't have two of the Winchesters with out including the third one. I actually first saw him on Gilmore Girls but had no freaking clue who he was back then...lets just say he's grown...a lot...since then. And may I mention the very fine arms that he has from working out? :D

Honorable Mention: Just because I couldn't put Tom up there without adding Justin and Michael :D I give you Justin Hartley (first seen on Passions...yes...I know...don't judge me :D) and Michael Rosenbaum (first seen on Smallville)

Of course, I could continue (Aaron Piersol, the gymnastics boys, George Eads, CMM, Michael Phelps, etc...) but I'll stop here :D

Yes, I am once again a sheep :D

You Are a Werewolf

You are moody and easily provoked.

You are highly loyal and protective of those you love.

While you can be intense at times, you are generally a laid back person.

But if a fight comes your way, you will fight 'til the death if necessary.

You seem normal to most people. No one understands how different you can be.

It's like a switch flips for you sometimes - and then you're a completely different creature.

Are You a Vampire or a Werewolf?

Dr. Radek Zelenka had known about the existence of Vampires since he could remember. His mother had become a Chosen One for Sanguen Vitae when he was just a baby. At that point, things in the country of Czechoslovakia had been rough for common families. His mother had stumbled across the Vampire community and had become a Chosen One in order to secure a future for her son. Radek himself was never really an active Chosen, having been taken to Moscow at an early age after showing a lot of promise and talent in the field of science. He knew the Clan kept an eye on him for his mother and maybe even opened some doors for him, such as the SGC, but that was really the extent of his interaction.

So Radek Zelenka was a shocked man when he figured out that John Sheppard was a Vampire, which certainly explained how quickly he healed after the bug incident. What had perplexed the most was why an unmated Vampire would travel to another galaxy. Major John Sheppard had definitely puzzled the Czech scientist for a long time. But like any good scientist knows observation is key, so Radek observed. During his observation of the subject a theory had formed; maybe his Mate was in Atlantis. Everyone was protective of the city and their expedition group, but Major Sheppard had taken it to a whole different level. Case in point being when the Genii took over the city and took Dr. Elizabeth Weir and Dr. Rodney McKay hostage. That situation made Radek believe that John's Mate was definitely in the city, most likely on his team. He had known that it wasn't Dr. Weir. The two definitely got along and she was probably a Chosen herself. Seeing the camaraderie between Sheppard and his group of friends made Radek long for a place to belong.

Instead of letting on to his status of a Chosen One, he continued to watch from the sidelines. He was pleasantly surprised though, when in the middle of discussions that he happened to be near, Sheppard and the others began to ask for his opinion. When Rodney began to mispronounce his name he had been upset at first, but then had come to realize that was Rodney's way of being friendly. He was being consulted on most projects now and even put in charge of a few and had begun to hang around with various others in the expedition. He was finally gaining a sense of belonging for the first time in his life, not because a clan was meant to do that, not because of what he could do with tools and his brain, but because of him.

During the siege of Atlantis by the wraith, he began to catch signs of who Sheppard's Mate was, but it was the last few moments of that siege that had sealed who it was. From the 'So long Rodney' that he heard through his open radio with the other scientist to the tense moment in the jumper bay as he helped Sheppard get the jumper carrying the nuke ready, he could tell that this was a man who had just said goodbye to his Mate, who was doing everything he could to keep the man, and the rest of the city, safe even though Rodney had no idea what was happening. He wondered if Rodney McKay, irritating but brilliant scientist, would ever recognize how much John Sheppard did to keep him safe, if he would ever realize how much the man loved him.

It was then that Radek decided if John somehow miraculously survived, like he somehow tended to do, that he would protect them. They may not know he was doing it but he would be kind of a hidden Chosen One.

And of course, Sheppard did survive, and Rodney understood his sacrifice for the city but didn't get that it was really to give Rodney more time than anything else. There were some losses but for the most part the city, and its people, remained in tact. Sheppard went on to do his normal thing and Elizabeth had even managed to get him a promotion for all of his hard work, which led to the important fact, he remained in charge of the city. Not that it was any less than he deserved; he earned every bit of that promotion but Elizabeth helped the command staff at the SGC to recognize that.

Now they had survived the siege, survived the colonel getting a promotion and even made it through Rodney having Cadman in his head. That one in itself was a miracle between him wanting to kill Rodney for yelling at him in front of their entire staff and making him look like an imbecile, to John wanting to kill Carson for kissing his Mate. Of course who could blame him, even though it was not Carson's fault; one does not kiss another Vampire's Mate like that.

A short bit of time went by and he began to notice changes in Rodney. The man was a bit calmer...ok, maybe calmer wasn't the word but he was happier. He was definitely spending much more time with the colonel so Radek thought that maybe he had been told. It wasn't until one day in the lab, completely by chance mind you, that he saw Rodney growling and yelling at Kavanaugh. While this in itself wasn't unusual, the fact that when Rodney turned away he caught a glimpse of glowing eyes and fangs was.

John had turned Rodney.

Radek of course considered Rodney a good, if ill-tempered, friend and extended his self-proclaimed Chosen status to him now. Of course he hadn't planned to reveal himself unless necessary.

Though if you know Rodney you know that didn't last very long.

It started as a nice day on a new planet they were exploring. They had found something they thought could be used as an alternate power source. While John and Ronon were off exploring the planet and having their own version of male bonding time with Teyla trailing along, he and Rodney were investigating the power source. Next thing Radek knew all hell was breaking loose. Natives stumbled across them and accused them of desecrating a sacred tomb or something. Rodney ended up shot somehow in the leg with an arrow but the two had still managed to find cover until the natives left.

"I'm shot!" Rodney cried.

"Yes, I realize this," Radek commented while looking at the spot the arrow had gone through. He knew that Rodney couldn't bleed to death but he wanted to cause the least amount of pain possible. He reached for the arrow and snapped the tip off, pulling it out by the feathers. Fortunately it had gone all the way through.

"OW! What are you doing? You're not a medical professional; I could bleed to death!" Rodney ranted.

Radek just gave him a look and stuck his wrist in Rodney's face.

"What the hell are you doing?! I'm bleeding to death!"

"You are Vampire, no?" Radek said calmly.

"But...you...how..." Rodney sputtered.

"You are Vampire along with Colonel Sheppard. You need blood; Chosen Ones give blood," Radek explained like he was talking to a little child.

"But you aren't supposed to know! Secret society and all of that!" Rodney protested.

"Just take blood, you insufferable..." he trailed off and began to mutter in his native language.

Rodney just took his friend's wrist and took just enough to heal himself. Just about the time he was finished, John, Ronon and Teyla had arrived to get them to the gate safely.

"Oh sure, now you show up," Rodney complained. "It's a good thing I'm a Vampire or else the city would sink back into the ocean."

John just stood there and looked back and forth between his ranting Mate and the calm looking Czech scientist. "Um...Rodney..."

"What? Oh him. Apparently he already knows about your whole secret society; how I don't know."

John just looked at Radek for an explanation.

"My family is Chosen for Sanguen Vitae. The whole bug choking your air off was a big clue, especially considering how fast you recovered from it."

"Then why didn't we know about you?"

"Cause I am not active Chosen until now."

"Now?" John questioned.

"Yes; you all are my friends and I help friends," the Czech replied with a shrug.

"Ok, works for me," John replied.

"That's all you have to say? Works for you?" Rodney ranted. "He's known for how long? How do we know he won't tell?"

"I think if he was going to tell he would have already done so," John reasoned and pulled Rodney up, leading his team to the gate.

And that is how Dr. Radek Zelenka became an active Chosen One for the insufferable Dr. Rodney McKay.

yes...I am a sheep yet once again

10. Jack Malone/Samantha Spade (Without a Trace)
11. Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard (SGA)

13. Wraith/Anyone (SGA)

Two ships you’re curious about, but don’t actually ship
14. Prince Caspian X/Susan Pevensie (Prince Caspian)
15. Cameron Mitchell/Sam Carter (SG-1)

Why do you dislike #11 so much?
I'm not really sure, it's just a ship that I have never been able to get behind.

Who is someone you know that ships #14?
Not personally, I have a few friends that think it's cute.

What would be your ideal scenario for couple #3?
Not really sure, I know that it would be a funny date with lots of amusing hijinks. :D

Which is your favorite moment for couple #1?
When Peter gives Caspian his sword...or when Peter calls him forward after he has fought his uncle...or, ok, I could really go on and include every Peter/Caspian moment from the movie but I won't :D

How long have you been following couple #6?
Only since the season 8 of Smallville began, not really a lot of fic for them but I really love the non-evil version of Bloom.

What's the story with #8? What made you stop liking them/caring?
After a while I just fell out of shipping them and got into shipping Clark/Lex and then Clark/Oliver. I still loved the show but I think I began to see their relationship as more of a brother/sister one.

You have the power to make one ship non existent. Choose from #10 or #12.
#10

Which ship do you prefer #2 or #4?
So not nice to make me choose between Clark/Oliver and Elliot *pout*

What interests you about #15?
I think that they are adorable onscreen together, especially after Cam's first epi where he is asking her to come back.

Why did you stop liking #7?
I just didn't like how Lana kept jerking him around. Yes he kept secrets but so did she.

Did your waning interest in #9 kill your interest in the show?
No, the fact that they began to shove that ship down our throats started to, but I have since learned to ignore it.

What’s a song that reminds you of #5?
Boulevard of Broken Songs (Green Day/Oasis). Every time I hear this song now I think of the video that I saw that went with it.

If you could have any of these two pairings double-date, who would it be?
Chuck/Casey and Elliot/Nate/Alec. I can just see Chuck flashing on them and Casey's reaction...and the fact that it would give us Elliot's background :D

Have #2 kissed yet?
Not that I know of, if they did how the hell did I miss it. :D

Did #4 have a happy ending? If the show hasn't ended yet, do you think a happy ending is likely?
The show just started but I can see the boys buying a private island and living there after their work is done.

What would make you start shipping #14?
Not really sure, I sorta kinda ship them...I'll read fic with them paired together anyway.

If only one could happen, which would you prefer, #2 or #6?
#2

You have the power to decide the fate of #10. What happens to them?
That Jack would get together with either Martin or Danny and that Sam would just go away.

Which do you dislike the most?
Wraith/Anyone, it makes me want to hide.

Which of these ships do you love the most?
At the moment probably Caspian/Peter.

Sylum Fic: I'm Not Going Anywhere (Stargate: Atlantis - FRT - John Sheppard/Rodney McKay)

Wed, 15 Oct 2008 19:56:43 GMT

This is the next installment of my Sylum100 series claim for John Sheppard. Hope you enjoy!

Title: I’m Not Going Anywhere
Author: Jayme/John Sheppard
Prompt: 84-Eternity
Summary: A continuation of the Trinity story line.
Beta: Gil
Fandom(s): Sylum-Stargate: Atlantis
Genre (general, hetero or slash): Slash (mention of Het)
Pairing/Characters: John Sheppard (D’Artagnan), Rodney McKay
Rating: FRT
Warnings: Spoilers for Stargate: Atlantis episode 2.06 Trinity.
Notes: I would like to thank Bev for allowing me to play in the Sylum sandbox; this story is set as a sequel to ‘Don’t You Get It?!’. THIS IS APPROVED SYLUM CANON!

Rodney McKay was searching his Mate's room, looking for his stash of movies. They were part of a care package that Nick Stokes always managed to get smuggled aboard the Daedalus for his Childe.

The few weeks since the whole fiasco on Doranda had been full of tension with the two Mates sorting out their feelings and views on everything. Things were starting to look up and they were both working out things between them. It had been hard at first, especially after John's 'we'll see', but now Rodney was pretty sure that there was some underlying thing from John's past that had made the situation that much worse. The problem was that when it came to his Mate's past, he was far from an open book. It was like pulling teeth when trying to get details from him.

But Rodney wasn't going to think of that now. He was going to find that stash of movies if it was the last thing he did, because he had a nice quiet evening planned for John and himself. Things had been progressing slowly since that disaster and he wanted to enjoy the fact that they were getting through their first test after bonding.

He finally found two boxes buried in the back of his closet, one new and one an old hand carved chest. Rodney's curious nature got the best of him and he pulled the older box out and traced the two crests on it. There was a contemporary lock on it, blocking his way. He though about it for a moment and figured it wouldn't be anything as obvious as a birthday, not that he knew much about John's family anyway. Finally, he took a guess and tried 2-26-32, the day Johnny Cash was born.

The lock popped open and Rodney smirked. "I know my Mate extremely too well." He looked in the box and saw an eclectic collection of items, including old pictures, an intricately designed and well made sword and a few very well preserved drawings. Rodney picked up a book from the chest and was taken back to into the past for a few moments before a piece of paper fell free, bringing him back to the present. He grabbed it and began to read.

Mon Henry,
Je t’ai perdu pour le moment.

Ta perte m'a jeté dans une fosse de désespoir.

Nos âmes vont être réunis un jour.

Ton âme retournera-t-il bientôt ?

Je te reconnaîtrai quand je te rencontre encore ?

Comment puis-je savoir ?

Quand saurais-t-je ?

Pour le moment, je combattrai si d'autres ne se sont pas cassés comme nous l’avons fait.

Je les protégerai comme je ne pourrais pas te protéger.

Je permette à d’autres ce que nous n'avons pas fait.

Les nuits de passion.

Les nuits d’entrelacer ensemble.

Retourne chez moi bientôt mon amour.

Je suis une demie personne jusqu'à ce que tu le fasses.
Avec toute mon amour,
Johnathon

While Rodney was reading, John had entered and saw his Mate sitting where he had pulled the chest out. He froze when he saw it open and it's contents spread around it. Rodney began to read the poem aloud in English without turning around, his voice slightly choked.

"My Henry,

I have lost you for now.

Your loss has me in a pit of despair.

Our souls will be reunited one day.

Will your soul return soon?

Will your soul return in the distant future?

Will I recognize you when I meet you again?

How can I know?

When will I know?

For now, I will fight so others are not broken like we are.

I will protect them as I could not protect you.

I will let others have what we did not.

Nights of passion.

Nights entwined together.

Return to me soon my love.

I am half a person until you do.

With all my love,
Johnathon”

"This is why you lost it after Doranda. It was bad wasn't it, after I...Henry died?"

John ran a hand through his hair and moved to sit beside Rodney. "It was a dark time for me. I took off into

Mexico

after it happened; I had just lost my entire world again."

"Why wasn't your Clan there for you?" he asked, outraged at a Clan, whom John thought the world of, leaving him to deal with it alone.

"You think I'm the first one to lose a Mate? I only lost mine once, before starting the bond; others have lost theirs several times or gone insane. Plus the Civil War was just starting to heat up and they had too many other things to worry about. What right did I have to go to them?" John replied in defense of his Clan, his tone showing Rodney that he didn't believe he deserved the support he needed.

"You had every right," Rodney commented softly as he pulled John close.

"Yeah, I know that now," he replied. "A good friend of mine came and dragged my ass home." He smiled softly, "Nick and Tony smacked some sense into me when I finally returned to the manor."

Rodney picked up the drawings, sensing John's need to change the subject. "Are these yours?"

"No," John said as he took the drawings and flipped through them. "My youngest son was an artist. I've got a few of his paintings at the Chateau outside of Paris."

"Tell me about them?" he prompted, knowing that if he didn't keep John going, the next time they talked like this could be a while. He tended to keep quiet about his past unless asked when in the right mood.

"The eldest, Johnathon, he had a quiet strength like his mother. He grew up and became a musketeer, though things had changed and it was more of a ceremonial honor by then, I was still so proud of him. Michelle was the only girl and a good mix of us both: her mother's beauty and cunning and my temperament and trouble making tendencies. And my little Phillipe, he was a miniature version of me."

"Constance must have had her hands full then," Rodney joked.

"Yeah," John smiled. "Phillipe loved traveling; I would take him with me often. We would talk for hours about how much he loved the clouds and how he just knew that one day people would travel among them."

"Did you start flying because of him?" he asked, trying to keep his Mate talking. He was enjoying this rare glimpse into the past.

"Partially; the other reason was that I just couldn't pass it up, you know, loving adventures and all of that."

Rodney just rolled his eyes at that. "I think you meant you couldn't pass up the trouble."

They sat quietly for a few moments before Rodney spoke up again. "Have you ever seen them, your children and Constance?"

John just shook his head sadly. "No, unfortunately it hasn't been their time to return to me yet, though I do expect to see them one day."

"Well, if your children are anything like you, and apparently they are, they're too stubborn not to come back and see their papa," he assured as he watched John run his fingers over the book and poem, lost in the past. "And as for this," he said, taking the paper, folding it up and placing it back in the book, "this is why you were so upset after Doranda, wasn't it?"

"Yeah," he replied softly. "It felt like I was going to lose you all over again."

Rodney just gave him a look and he continued. "Henry was holding class the day Santa Ana's troops attacked. He was far from a soldier; he was a scholar and a teacher first and foremost. Kinda like you in the beginning. Of course, like you, he had a sense of honor buried down deep and he tried to take on the troops to save the children. Of course with no training he didn't last long; he tried to do something that he knew he couldn't and he died because of it."

"Gee, you haven't done anything like that, now have you?" Rodney snorted. "I can kind of see the similarities, but him dying wasn't out of arrogance; it was because he was trying to protect those who couldn't protect themselves. But the biggest difference between him and me is that we're bonded now. I'm here now. I'm not leaving you," he reminded him while placing the book back in the chest and locking it. He took John by the chin and pulled him in for a soft kiss.

"Now, off the floor; it's killing my delicate back," he said, returning to his normal snarky self as he got up, trying to lighten things a bit.

"Oh, no, we can't have that," John said with a smirk pulling himself up off the floor.

"Not if you want sex anytime this century Colonel, because let me tell you...ack!"

He was cut off mid-rant when John tackled him to the bed and kissed him thoroughly, making him lose his train of thought.

"You were saying something, dear?" he waggled his eyebrows.

"That if you don't do something with that," he replied while snaking a hand down to squeeze John's cock, "soon I'm going to take matters into my own hands."

"Looks like you already have."

"Cocky flyboy," Rodney muttered before the only sounds coming out of either of them were moans and gasps.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A little while later, Rodney lay on his back with John curled up against his side, idly tracing shapes on his stomach.

"Would you quit drawing helicopters and gateships on me," Rodney mock complained.

"Puddlejumpers," John teased as he thumped his Mate in the stomach playfully as his Mate muttered something about ships that go through a gate.

To Rodney, it seemed like a weight had been lifted from his Mate, almost like he was finally getting over Henry and realizing that Rodney wasn't going to disappear on him.

He started to run his hands through John's hair, smirking when he purred, stretched and yawned. "You're like a giant cat, with unruly hair, that likes to have your head scratched."

"Shuddup..." he grumbled sleepily, eyes drooping shut.

Rodney just smiled as his Mate fell asleep, glad that he had returned to him and hoping that his family would show up soon; a man like John needed to be surrounded by his family and friends. Of course like he said, if they were as stubborn as John then they should be showing up just about anytime now, he thought with a smile as he drifted off to sleep.

Chuck Fic pls? puppy eyes o doom

Wed, 15 Oct 2008 14:58:43 GMT

Ok flist, if you all could help me with one of my new obsessions I would be forever grateful. I'm looking for Chuck/Casey fic. Short ones are good, long ones are even better :D And bonus points for finding me a Chuck/SG crossover fic :D I've read two so far but neither have been updated in a while *crosses fingers and hopes for update* Anyway, thanks in advance everyone *goes off to teach now*

Rant ahead, please be warned.

Mon, 13 Oct 2008 19:05:52 GMT

So I'm well into my student teaching experience...some of the things that have ahppened have been hilarious, others make me want to beat my head in...

So, I just started teaching my all days last week. I have three 90 min. classes a day. The first two aren't bad at all, they are my freshman and I love most of them to death (and the ones that are great more than make up for the annoying ones). Of course I had the best Monday ever last week *grins big*. The student who gave me problems since day one (see previous rants) transferred to another high school in the county. So what is this rant about you may ask? High schoolers. More specifically juniors and seniors who think that there shit doesn't stink and that all of us teachers must bow down to their awesomeness, note the sarcasm here please. I gave out more failing grades on progress reports last week than I've given all semester. They won't participate, they refuse to do as I ask and they whine more than my 8 year old niece (and trust me, she is a pro at whining, or at least I thought until I met this group of 17 and 18 year olds). I think if I hear one more, 'It's too hot', 'why do we have to be outside when the middle school isn't?' or 'you gave me what on my progress report?! My parents are gonna be pissed!' I will scream...seriously, and probably right in the poor student's face who ask the question that pushes me over the edge. It's NC in late summer/early fall, it's hot, it's humid, get over it. We're playing flag football and soccer...those are outdoor sports, get over it. And as for grades, I like to say what one of my professors at college used to...I don't give you your grade, you earn it. It's not my fault you won't get up, and attempt to move around the field and at least act like you are trying to do something. That's all I ask, really, no great feats of athletic performance. This is an elective class...oy! Anyway, I appreciate you all tuning into this rant...*takes a deep breath* I feel much better now. *hugs f-list* Tune in next time, same bat time, same bat channel for fic hopefully :D

Sylum Fic: Don't You Get It?! (Stargate: Atlantis - FRT - John Sheppard/Rodney McKay)

Thu, 25 Sep 2008 22:36:44 GMT

Alright, I just realized that I hadn't posted the latest fic here...so here it is. This is approved Sylum Canon by the General herself. Hope you enjoy!

Title: Don't You Get It?!
Author: Jayme/John Sheppard
Prompt: 94-Reality
Summary: The aftermath of Doranda, otherwise known as Rodney blowing up a solar system.
Beta: Gil
Fandom(s): Sylum-Stargate: Atlantis,
Genre (general, hetero or slash): Slash
Pairing/Characters: John Sheppard (D'Artagnan), Rodney McKay
Rating: FRT
Warnings: Spoilers for Stargate: Atlantis episode 2.06 Trinity.
Notes: First I would like to thank Bev for allowing me to play in the Sylum sandbox; this story is set during Trinity, after all hell breaks loose picking up where John and Rodney talk at the end.

"John!" Dr. Rodney McKay called out as he tried to catch up with his Mate of only a few weeks.

Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard just continued walking. He had been pissed a lot in his life; of course living over 500 years gives one a lot of time to be pissed. Sure he hated Richelieu and Rochfort when he was a musketeer and Gerard was always thorn in his side. He'd hated Santa Ana and his troops with a fiery passion after Henri had been killed. And of course don't get him started on that whole mess that happened over in Afghanistan or the new problem with the Genii and Kolya. But to his recollection he couldn't recall ever being this mad at someone he cared about and loved, but Rodney had finally pushed John over an edge that he wasn't sure he could come back from.

It all started on Doranda. Rodney had convinced him that he could succeed where the Ancients had failed...that had been mistake number one. John knew that if it had been any other part of the science team that he would have flat out said no and that would have been the end of that. But Rodney was his Mate, and Mates were supposed to trust in each other so John let that little fact sway his judgment...that was the second mistake. Rodney had taken their new bond and used it to convince him of something that should have never been attempted, and someone had been killed in the process.

Now what John needed was some time to himself to think about things, get things back in perspective and lose the urge to growl at anyone who walked past. Rodney though was making that next to impossible. He wanted to apologize, and John had no doubt that he was sorry, but his Mate needed to learn his limits before it was too late. While the entire mission was screwed, there was something else that bothered John, something that reminded him so much of the past that he didn't want to explore it too closely, afraid of the memories and feelings that it might bring back to the surface.

"John!" Rodney tried again and hurried his pace to catch up with his Mate. He knew he screwed up; he could admit that now. He just wished that John would talk to him. He needed his Mate, but he wasn't good with the whole emotion thing and this entire mess had stirred up a lot of them.

'Gall, Grodin, now Collins...well the list just keeps getting bigger,' he thought. Right now he wanted to set things right with John; later he would concentrate on the others.

He called out to John one more time as he caught up with him but was not ready for the look of complete anger as his Mate turned around.

"I'm sorry," he said. "I messed up and I'm sorry."

John just looked at him incredulously, "Are you serious? You think a simple 'I'm sorry' is going to fix things?! Don't you get it?! It was dangerous and near impossible and you knew it, yet you still led me to believe that it could be done. Someone died out there, Rodney. You have no regard for the consequences and you could have died!"

"But I thought there was the whole we're bonded: I die, you die thing?"

"You think I wouldn't have felt your loss before I followed you? You think that makes it better? I don't know about you, Rodney, but I don't want to die. I want to live a long happy life with my Mate, see my family return to me. Damn it, Rodney!"

"I.."

"Don't you dare say I'm sorry," John warned. He knew Rodney was sorry, and that maybe he should let up a bit but he wanted to make sure Rodney knew what he was sorry for because he sure as hell didn't want to go through this again.

"Well what else do you want me to say?" he asked. "That I was wrong, that I honestly thought I could get it to work and that I feel terrible that Collins died?"

"That's a start," John said, calming a bit. "How about the arrogance at thinking you could succeed where the Ancients couldn't? How about working towards convincing me that it won't happen again?"

"I can try," he replied and John nodded, knowing that was all that Rodney could do for now. "You should know that arrogance and cockiness is part of who I am."

"Trust me, I know, and I don't want you to change, please don't think that. I just want you to realize you can't fix everything."

"I'll work on it...are we gonna be ok?"

"We'll see," John said and Rodney's face fell. "We're both new to the whole bonded Mates thing. We both made mistakes and we both have things that we need to address and come to terms with before we'll be like we were before all of this."

"Of course," he replied in a clipped tone.

John smiled sadly and reached a hand out for Rodney. "Come here," he requested and pulled his Mate into the transport shaft and waited for the doors to close. "You're really willing to work on things?"

"Yes."

"So am I and I have no doubt that we're going to be fine. We just have to make sure to work these things out and try to prevent them from happening again, ok?" John asked as he rested his hands on Rodney's shoulders and squeezed gently.

"Ok." Rodney replied, leaning in to give John a soft kiss before pulling away as the doors opened. "See you tomorrow?" he asked, wanting to give them both a bit of time to cool off.

"See you tomorrow," he agreed as the doors shut.

A New Adventure

Musketeer Johnathon Francis D'Artagnan, known nowadays as USAF Major John Sheppard sat on the banks of the Mississippi in New Orleans flipping a coin in the air and looking out over the water. His decision had been made as soon as he was asked; there was no doubt about it. Of course he had put up the token fight against going when General Jack O'Neill had asked, but there had never been another option. His only dilemma was how was he going to tell his sire? The man had taken him under his wing when he was young and headstrong and had helped shape him into the man he was today. He swore an oath to always be there for the clan and it was tearing him apart knowing that if he left he couldn't help out. He especially hated to leave with every thing that was going on right now.

John sighed as he tossed the coin up in the air again and caught it. It was an old good luck token that his wife Constance had given him during his Musketeer days.

"Wow, that's a heavy hearted sound coming from someone about to go on the adventure of a lifetime," Nick Stokes commented as he walked to where John was sitting.

John just looked over at his Sire as he sat beside him. "So you already know, huh?" he asked rhetorically. "Figures you would find out while I'm sitting here agonizing about how to tell you. General O'Neill called didn't he?"

"Yes, he did," Nick answered. "He's worried you won't go. As for me already knowing, who do you think recommended you?"

John just smirked a bit at that. "My Mate will be there, he's the head scientist. As soon as I saw him I knew it was a done deal," he said softly.

"I'd heard about your reaction when you met him," Nick said smiling.

"Jack again?"

"Yup."

John snorted and continued to look out over the water. Nick studied his profile for a moment then broke the silence.

"Is there anything you would like to do before you leave?"

"I'd like to go home one last time, just in case," John informed Nick.

"I figured as much and had the plane prepared. It's ready to go when you are," Nick said as he stood and offered a hand to John.

John took his hand and stood. They headed to their respective vehicles, Nick's Tahoe and John's classic '66 Mustang convertible. John paused getting into his car.

"Would you mind coming with me to France?" he asked.

"You don't think that I'm letting you take the clan plane by yourself do you?" Nick replied as he climbed into his vehicle and shut the door.

Soon they were at the airfield. They parked their cars and walked to the plane.

"Warrick will arrange for the cars to be picked up and taken back to the manor," Nick explained. "We're going to fly straight from France to Colorado on the way to Cheyenne Mountain; Jack O'Neill's putting us up at his place for a night."

"Ok, sounds good to me," John commented. "Warrick does know to take care of my baby, right?" he asked a bit apprehensive.

Nick laughed as they entered the plane but offered no response.

"Nick…Nick!" John panicked as followed him. Laughter rang throughout the plane as he headed to the cockpit and began flight preparations.

France:

After landing in France Nick had a car there to transport them to John's chateau just outside of Paris. As they pulled up the long driveway John had many memories of children running all over the yard playing. He could almost see his children and even his grandchildren having snowball fights in Constance's flower garden. She would get so upset, then John would go out and join them, building forts out of snow. As they got closer he began to get a wistful look on his face as the memories of his family came back to him.

Nick glanced at him and noticed. Placing a hand on his shoulder he asked, "You ok?"

"Yeah," he answered. "Just a lot of old memories coming back to me. It's been a long time since I've been home."

Nick just nodded as the car pulled to a stop. John immediately got out of the vehicle and headed to the house. He grabbed a box and headed out the back door with it. He entered the gate to the family cemetery there and walked past several rows of descendants. He smiled, happy with the knowledge that all of his children had lived full lives and that his family line was still going strong. He ended up in the back of the cemetery where four graves were shaded by a big oak tree. There was a large one with both his and Constance's name on it. The large stone was flanked on the right by the graves of his two sons and on the left by his daughter. He kneeled in front of them as he opened the box. He liked to have small, tangible reminders of his family when he came to speak with them. He had a cross that his oldest Johnathon had received from Timothy as a gift when he followed in his father's footsteps and became a musketeer, a locket Nicholas had given his daughter Michelle, and a carved wooden soldier that Antonio had given his youngest son Phillipe. His children had adored his Sire and vampire brothers.

"Hey guys, I know it's been a while since I've visited. Things have been crazy these past few years. I'm flying helicopters now, it's so amazing, being up in the clouds, so freeing. I did the plane thing for a while, but have decided that helicopters are better. You would love it Phillipe, as much you used to come out here and just stare up at the sky. I remember you telling me how you dreamed of what it would be like. I miss you all so much; I bet you all are causing so much mischief wherever you are right now. I'm thankful that you all lived such full happy lives surrounded by your family. Maybe one day we will all meet again," he said, wiping his eyes before continuing. "Johnathon look out for your younger siblings and yes, I know you can look after yourself Michelle but humor me please. Phillipe, quit giving everyone a hard time and stay out of trouble," he said smiling as he touched each headstone before moving over to the larger one.

"Hello my dear Constance," he said as he sat down and leaned against the cool smooth stone. "You were always so understanding of everything, so supportive. I found my Mate again, he's going on this adventure to another galaxy and I've decided to go, always the adventurer right? Of course I'm sure you'd be going right along with me if you were here." John gripped the coin she gave him tightly. "I don't know if I'll ever make it back in this lifetime but I want you to know that I'm going to have Nick take care of everything here. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you, and while I know that you were not my Mate, you were special to me and will always hold a place in my heart. Je t'aime, mon Constance," he said as he began to get up and put the items back in the box.

He walked slowly back to the house and sat on the back steps. Nick, who had been watching from the window, waiting for his return, went outside to join him. He sat beside him and looked out over the land.

"Can you watch over my land for me? It would mean a lot," John said, finally breaking the silence.

"Of course I will," Nick said, it finally sinking in that this could be the last time he saw his childe. "You know that it's going to be amazing out there, right?"

John looked up at the stars, "Yeah, I know. I never would have thought that I'd be leaving this world one day. I hope that I'm around to see what else we come up with in the future."

"You will be," Nick said, "and you will always have a home with us to return to."

John just nodded before handing Nick the box and heading inside. Nick got up and followed him in and up to a small bedroom with many things from over the centuries. He grabbed a box from the closet that held his Musketeer cloak in it.

"My sword is in the car," John explained. "I'd like for you to hold onto these for me. If I don't make it back, you know what to do with them, right?"

"Yes, I know," Nick said solemnly. "I will take good care of everything for you."

"Thanks Nick," he replied as he looked around his old home one last time before leaving and walking back to the car.

Soon they were back in Paris at the hotel they decided to spend the night at. John slept fitfully, images of his Mate making several appearances in his dreams. The next morning they both woke and headed back to the airstrip. They got the plane prepped and took off for Colorado.

When they arrived John was surprised to see Tony and Tim waiting with Jack O'Neill to pick them up.

"Now remember, Tony and Speed think that you are going on a deep cover Special Ops mission," Nick re-emphasized.

John just nodded as he grabbed his and Nick's bags and tossed them in the back of Tim's rental. Soon they had arrived at Jack O'Neill's home about 10 miles from Cheyenne Mountain.

Jack talked with Nick for a bit after they arrived before he headed out to meet Dr. Weir for dinner, he would be informing her about John's special nature. The boys were out back grilling steaks and talking about their antics from the past. Nick just paused at the door way and watched his children interact. They would all miss John, even if they hadn't seen each other recently he was only a phone call or email away. Now though, he'd be in another galaxy, possibly to never return. Nick hated that he couldn't tell Tony and Speed what was really going on. Soon dinner was ready and they all sat down to eat. Afterwards they retired to the den with their drinks and reminisced some more.

A bit later Nick presented John with a gift bag.

"What's this?" John asked, looking puzzled.

"Just open it," Tony said as he and Speed grinned at him.

John held it cautiously in front of him, "I don't know if I want to," he stated and grinned back. He opened the bag to find a signed copy of Alexandre Dumas' The Three Musketeers in its original French version. John laughed and opened the book to see comments and corrections made all throughout by Nick, Tony and Speed. He looked up at them and smiled brightly.

"Thanks guys, this means a lot to me," he told them.

He flipped through the book looking at the comments and saw the ones beside the infamous duel scene.

"I cannot believe you guys commented on this," John chuckled. "Pace yourself when getting into duels." He just looked up and Tony and Speed and glared at them.

They sat there snickering on the couch while Nick just shook his head and laughed.

"You were so cocky and sure that you were going to beat us," Nick commented.

"Oh, like you guys weren't?" John quipped back. "Three against five, that's not fair."

"Who's the one who took on the cardinal's guards and almost got his head chopped off?" Speed snarked.

"And who was it that saved your ass with the ax that was a gift from the czarina of Tokyo?" Tony added.

"Oh, and what about that time that you and Benton Fraser decided to go out and get arrested for fraternizing with the local village leader's daughter?" John retorted as Speed snickered. "Ol' Frase was so clueless, and when he figured it out I thought he was going to kill you."

Tony just grumbled as John continued. "And you Speed," he started.

"Hey!"

"A Cardinal Guard touching one of your books is technically not a good reason for starting a fight," he added before turning to look at Nick who cut him off as he opened his mouth.

"If you know what is good for you D'Artagnan you will not proceed with any statement that is about to come out of your mouth," Nick said, smiling sweetly.

John just grinned as he finished his drink. "Well, I hate to cut this short guys, but I've got to get up at the ass crack of dawn, so I probably need to catch some sleep."

They all agreed and cleaned up the living room and kitchen. Soon they all retired for the evening.

The next morning they were all heading out of the house before the sun came up. Nick, Tony and Speed were returning to their respective cities and John and Jack were heading to Cheyenne Mountain. Jack took John's things and put them in the back of his truck while John said his goodbyes.

John turned to the other three and gave them a forced smile.

"You don't want to go?" Nick queried as he pulled John aside to talk with him privately.

"No, I do, this is the opportunity of a lifetime. I would have never dreamed of being able to step through a circle that would take me through another galaxy. It's kind of unreal," he explained.

Nick just nodded as they went back to join the others.

"I just…I'm going to miss being in contact with you guys. I have no clue what will happen or when I'll be able to return home," he said.

"We'll see you sooner than you think," Tony told him.

"Yeah…" John trailed off and they all stood in silence.

Eventually Jack got tired of waiting and honked the horn. John walked up and gave them hugs, starting with Speed.

"Take care of yourself and try not to piss people off," Speed joked.

"Yeah, yeah," John mumbled and smirked while moving to Tony.

"No duels, got it?" Tony told him then whispered in his ear, "or at least not three in one day."

Nick just glared and grabbed John into a tight hug after Tony let him go. "Take care of yourself and your Mate, don't let him get away from you again," he murmured just so John could hear him. "We'll see you again in the future, it may be a while, but you'll definitely be back."

They all moved to their separate cars and drove away, John wondering what his future would hold for him in a different galaxy.

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 18:46:32 GMT

Well...I made it through day two of student teaching...The same boy still has to ask why they can't play basketball instead of volleyball...we still had the same discussion before he said real men don't play the sport...I told him I'd like to see him play volleyball against some of those guys and then ask his opinion on if they are real men or not...oh well, I guess that's the disadvantage to living in a rural southern community that doesn't have a men's volleyball team anywhere nearby.

Remembered my whistle today *dances* so that was a plus...and my clinical teacher said that my lesson was totally different from yesterday...like day and night different. So that made me feel good as well. Now if only I can remember the names of the other half of the class I'll be doing good. It's day two and I've got about half of them down so I won't resort to name tags yet :D

Well, I'm off now to stay awake, though I really want a nap, until band practice tonight, I get to work with my drummers on their new stuff. Yes, yes, I am a band geek. :D

And I begin teaching hides

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 02:06:17 GMT

Though seriously, today wasn't too bad...except for me forgetting my whistle *headdesk* Note to everyone, trying to yell over 28 kids in a gym, not a good idea...but other than that things went rather well for my first day teaching.

My favorite quote today from one of my male students (actually, I'll give you the short conversation):

Student: "Guys don't play volleyball"
Me: "Have you been living under a rock the past two weeks?"
Student: "No."
Me: "So you saw the Olympics?"
Student: "Yeah, they were cool."
Me: "So you must have missed the part where the US Men took gold in both beach and indoor MEN's volleyball?"
Student: "...oh..."

Though I have to say after that he tried to do what he was supposed to.

And speaking of Olympics, I am so bummed that they are over. But, I do get to go see the gymnasts on their tour in October *bounces* I can't wait for that. And look out London, I'm planning/hoping to be there in 2012 :D
