Atlantis S1 shenanigans.
exitsign: i love this cover so much. it makes me laaaaugh and laugh.
exitsign: there was a point in time when i liked to imagine one of the marines on atlantis teaching the athosian kids to sing this.
carleton97: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
exitsign: i mean, i bet there's some awesome acoustics in the gateroom.
exitsign: rodney would be PURPLE from laughing.
exitsign: he would be HANGING ONTO john's arm.
carleton97: I like to imagine that meeting. Elizabeth: "While I appreciate your willingness to engage the Athosians, we can't be teaching them..." Rodney:" about masturbation?"
exitsign: his knees completely given out.
carleton97: yes.
exitsign: "but, ma'am, it's the only song i know all the words to!"
carleton97: ;aljds;ljkzcvasd;flkj
exitsign: "oh, jethro."
carleton97: omg I love lantis.
carleton97: EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE THERE.
exitsign: the big unveiling of the athosian children's choir would be after the first wave. when someone brought a little casio keyboard over. and, like, one of the female scientists (MIKO, MY HEART SAYS MIKO) would play. while the kids sang. and, like, the gateroom is filled with proud, smiling athosian parents whose smiles slowly slip off their faces and altantis peeps who either die laughing or stare in horror.
exitsign: i imagine that john's got this amused grin on his face the entire time.
carleton97: totally. Like, he tries to have serious face when Elizabeth is lecturing, but he just can't manage it. Especially when Rodney is fucking TICKLED by the whole thing.
exitsign: rodney is FILLED with terrible glee about the whole thing.
carleton97: because this? is the shit he LIVES FOR.
carleton97: is there anything as delicious as someone else fucking up?
exitsign: NOT IN RODNEYLAND.
exitsign: the island of doctor mckay.
exitsign: RODNEYWORLD.
carleton97: he will replay the footage of this for ALL ETERNITY.
carleton97: it will forever be wonderful to him.
exitsign: forever and ever and ever. he has that play as he goes to sleep. has it piped into the labs. somehow manages to set everyone's computer to play it at start up.
carleton97: it fills him with a terrible glee.
exitsign: it does. and that's why we love him.
exitsign: athosian children's choir > everything.
carleton97: every so often,he tries to get Elizabeth to reinstate it. The children loved it after all, and their voices were beautiful.
exitsign: yes. and there's always a chance sgt jethro could teach them to sing "sweat" by inner circle.
carleton97: or, and this practically makes Rodney come, Darling Nikki.
exitsign: aaaaaaklsl;ksa;kl oh, rodney.
carleton97: he has a list of songs in his head that would be EVEN BETTER THAN I TOUCH MYSELF.
carleton97: ;alkjsdf;lkajsdf;lkasj MILKSHAKE.
exitsign: i think he tells john that one night -- SAJKAS;KKSADL;KSADL;KSA;KSAKDSADL;KSAKDSA DSSLJS DLKJ AKLJSDL KAJSDKL J oh my fucking god.
carleton97: anyway, he tells john...
exitsign: he tells john that he's got songs even better than i touch myself and john is all like your mind is a terrifying place. john, of course, has his own list of songs. they eventually collab and make a masterlist. and it is beautiful.
carleton97: because john + rodney = BEAUTIFUL EBIL OTP.
exitsign: OH SO VERY
