it's a ship. it goes through the gate.
I am taking a break from being almost disgustingly productive in order to conduct a VERY IMPORTANT POLL. And if you've been paying any attention to me for the last ever, you'll know that by very important poll, I mean I love asking arbitrary questions!
Today's are born of my continuing reaction of being completely weirded out by the fact that finding Sheppard/McKay fanfic is easy: you just find someone who wrote Fraser/Kowalski way back when and click forward a little. I have convinced myself that there must be some deep mystical connection here, partly because I want fandom to be less shallow than "pretty boys! yay!" and partly because I'm fighting a losing battle against plotting a massive crossover instead of writing my Yuletide. In the spirit of that, by which I mean deep mystical connections, I want to see if there is a favorite character pattern! (For example: Fraser & Sheppard are kind of One True Characters for me. Maybe this means I have a thing for The Heroes? Maybe you like Fraser and McKay best! Snippy Canadians for the win? I don't know what I'm trying to prove here but, by god, I am going to skientifically prove it.) So!
For the purpose of this exercise, you do have to choose. Also, I'm not going to lie, I'm just kind of curious to take a headcount on how many people actually know wtf I'm talking about.

I cannot actually express my massive joy over the fact that both you and Amelia have been watching due South. :DDD Are you watching any of s1/2 or did you skip right to Kowalski? Because if you skipped right to Kowalski, you missed a lot of excellent stuff. EITHER WAY, I still have MASSIVE JOY because omg we can talk about Doctor Who and this. <3

But I will totally go back and watch seasons one and two. It's kind of what I did with Doctor Who- I watched the episodes with Captain Jack first, then I was all "<3 THIS SHOW!", and watched the rest from the beginning. And yes, once Amelia and I are back I totally expect all manner of geeky due South/Doctor Who/Stargate: Atlantis talk in the dining hall. And if you haven't written that SGA/dS crossover you've been mentioning by then, we can influence you with marathons and backrubs. IT WILL BE AMAZING.

Watching seasons one and two might be kind of weird! Because by s3 you're watching ... um, a Fraser and a Chicago that have both affected one another, if that makes sense. Like, especially in s1 Fraser's naive earnestness isn't really put on at all, and Chicago is also mostly sane and normal. Or at least normaler than it gets as the show goes on.
sdklfdkjfd your vision of next semester is making me SO HAPPY. I approve in massive amounts. AMAZING INDEED. <333
