It's settled. I'm going to be a super villain who has the power to steal teen metabolisms andspence_reid  is my sidekick. I flirted with the idea of being a hero and a force for good, but this is more true to my character, lol. Just need to think about costumes now! Since we're going to be super fit and have the perfect bodies, my options are endless!

I do like this number by cinegirl2000 .



I always saw Emily as more of a Wonder Woman type, since fotobridget2's fic Super Hero Family brainwashed me, but Elektra works too.

-------------------

Mother and I had another of our now-weekly tennis matches. Til mother goes back to school, anyway. Stupid school. Although, that's kinda like saying 'stupid paycheck', so I shall forgive mother the inconvenience of her working for a living and not being around to entertain me when I wish.

At any rate, I lost again, 6-4. *sighs* There was one crucial shot when we were on 5-4 that could've changed the direction of the game in my favor but I was too tired and a little overconfident and TOTALLY HIT THE NET. Ugh. Why is it in basketball or netball, they're all like, 'Nothing but net, baby' and it's a good thing, but here the net is baaaad. I shall brood over that one shot for the rest of the day now. >:{

But it wasn't all bad news. Even though I lost the match, at least I was engaging in physical exercise and burning calories. Since I can no longer rely on my teen metabolism, that is somewhat important if I don't want to become the human blimp. So it's a win-win situation, really. Or that's what I tell myself to make losing sting less, lol.

Also, mother took pity on me and bought me some water ices, so yay! It's cool when my pitifulness leads her to spoil me. :D Okay, so water ices aren't really healthy and shouldn't be a 'reward' for running around, sweating it out on a court- Katherine, my favorite bubble burster, informed me it's basically frozen sugar- but I have this bizarre affliction where I cannot read or watch something good without eating at the same time. Water ices are yummy, take a while to eat, they don't fill up your stomach and don't feel as naughty as say, chocolate. They're also way less expensive than chocolate, bonus!

But yeah, I have this compulsion to munch or gnaw on SOMETHING when reading or watching, otherwise I can't enjoy whatever it is I'm engaged in. One of the reasons I hate going to restaurants, because for some reason, it's considered rude to ignore the people you're with and read with your food. Stupid social conventions.

Summary: Shep and Elizabeth resolve their differences but who wins in the end?
Rating: PG. I couldn't write R if I TRIED. >_<
Disclaimer: If SGA were mine, Sparky would be canon.

A/N: Aaaand in breaking news, OMG, the alien dude at the center of the whole fight between Lizzeh and Shep finally gets a name! Whee! I suck at devising alien names, but it had to be done…

Additional disclaimer: I take my cue from eps such as Duet and Irresistible, which set the mood here- my ship likes to tease each other. Seriously, Shep is occasionally on par with the little boy pulling on the little girl’s pigtails to show his affection. Or at least, that’s how he is in this chapter. -shrugs-

 

( *Elizabeth was working her way back up to exasperation again. He really should stop with this whole confession thing, it only seemed to help him dig an even deeper hole for himself.* )

I'm so ambivalent it's weird.

Bought the latest Stargate magazine to appear in Australia, the one with the Paul interview. I had sworn off it once Torri left, but here I am. And I was pleased that they still have references to Elizabeth and include a few pictures of her here and there, and came up with questions on her character in the quiz, so it's not like she's totally forgotten. Even though I'm totally grasping at straws and this doesn't make up for anything and it's nowhere near enough, but they're trying a little, at least. I hate the fact that they probably won't be interviewing Torri  ever again or having posters of Elizabeth, but I'm now at the point where I can actually read about the other actors without being totally bitter and hating the world.

That's not the weird part, though. The thing is, when they had Carter on the cover as 'leader of Atlantis' a while back, and when I read her 'mission reports' in the magazine as she oversees Atlantis and see posters of her with the Atlantis cast, I just feel so hostile and pissed off and I want to bash someone. But on the flip side of the Atlantis poster in this latest issue, there's Carter with Daniel, Cam and Teal'c. In contrast to the sober, grim Atlantis poster, all four are laughing, they're happy, they look like they're having a good time...and I entertain no mean thoughts about Carter, no hostility towards her, no desire to rip her to shreds- the only negative thing I have to say is that 'Omg, they left out Vala!'

Tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets,
And ask me your questions,
Aww let’s go back to the start..."
