Drabble: Tactics

[trinityofone]

You know, I was going to write some sort of deep follow-up to 'The Tower,' psychoanalyzing Sheppard to within an inch of his life. Instead, I wrote this. *eg*

Title: Tactics
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: McKay/Sheppard
Category: Humor
Length: 100 words
Summary: ‘The Tower’ tag. “I didn’t, you know.”

Tactics

“I didn’t, you know. Sleep with her.”

“Uh-huh.” There’s still a smudge of dirt by Rodney’s mouth; it’s very distracting.

“No, I was just trying to keep her quiet, make sure she didn’t cause a fuss.” John pauses, casually scratching his head. “So I went down on her.”

“WHAT?”

“Yeah, until she passed out.”

Rodney recovers sufficiently to ask, “From boredom?”

“From intensity of orgasm, Rodney.” John smiles, easy and slow, maneuvering the glassy-eyed and seemingly paralyzed scientist toward the bed. “Here,” he says, giving Rodney’s chest a hard shove, dropping to his knees. “Let me show you.”

*************

Let this be a lesson to you, Stargate people! Give us complex, awesome episodes like 'Grace Under Pressure,' and I will do my best to write quiet, thoughtful codas! Give us shallow, poorly thought out filler like 'The Tower' and you get, well, this. ;-)

God. Crack begets crack. And John gets laid, so... it's AWESOME.

[slodwick.livejournal.com]

Also? I love that both your icon & and your mood icon are smirking at this business. *giggle*

[coreopsis.livejournal.com]

Okay, yeah, that's totally what the end of that episode needed. But with more porn. *g*

[anitac588.livejournal.com]

LOL! Hilarious, I'm sure Rodney wanted demonstration over and over again.

[siria]

The tally of "spit takes resulting in a monitor drenched in tea" is now two to one in your favour.

Also, never has this icon been more appropriate. *g*

[birdsflying]

Ahahaha. Throw in a musical number (Ronon: "I have to push the pram a lot!") on top of that and the episode is perfect.

LOL! And what's wrong with this, precisely? :D

[aurora]

Yeah, that'll show the writers!!

Umm, this actually rocked. :X

John Sheppard: Sex God?

*helpless, sleep-deprived giggling*

and yet, even with the crack-addled...STILL HOT. oh john, you disgustingly sexy dork. *heart*

"From boredom" Love Rodney's retorts!

Yep, I think that this would have been a fine addition to that episode. *smile*

YOU SHOW HIM JOHN! YOU USE THOSE WHORE SKILLS WITH STYLE!

[smittywing.livejournal.com]

Except that this would, you know, require John to act on an attraction. ;) I'm comment #13. This has got to be some sort of sign.

The world needs more snark like this. Also? Rodney's snark = jealousy = love. Calculus.

I *love* Rodney's comeback: Rodney recovers sufficiently to ask, “From boredom?”

was, springwoof

Yeah, until she passed out.”

Hee! I just wrote a review of the episode in my lj, and yeah, while I liked it, I certainly didn't love it like I have the last three episodes.

[devildoll.livejournal.com]

Bwahahaha! Oh, Rodney. You always have a comeback.

*loves this*

[jissa.livejournal.com]

Wow. This was so perfect and fitting for the episode . . . Plus, it me laugh so hard I scared the cats, so thanks!

[randomeliza.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes, I'm sure that will totally dissuade them from making cracktastic episodes in the future. Totally. I mean, I hate it when people write John offering to give Rodney head. It's horrible, it really is. In fact, I don't think they'll get the point from just this - why don't you continue the scene? That would totally show them. Yes. Absolutely.

Also: hee. Haven't seen the episode yet, but I'm looking forward to it now.

[crysothemis.livejournal.com]

Hee!

*L* Loved it! Never thought of that answer to "What the hell did Shep do after the fade-out?" Thanks for this.

Uh oh, now they are going to write more of those episodes and it's all your fault! ;)

[kellifer-fic.livejournal.com]

Bwa!!

Loved it!

[lordelessar.livejournal.com]

Hehe... I still don't know who those guys are but that's pretty funny. A question though. How does one make a girl pass out from "intensity of orgasm?" Is there a manual or something I can get from the library? I really think there should be. Or some kind of course one could enroll in.

Seriously, BEST line I've ever read in my entire life lol *throws confetti to celebrate*

Well the coda should match the episode. Though I'd have paid more attention to the episode if that was actually tacked on the end... Porn that was what it needed, good old slash porn.

Though probably good to put a filler after GUP, because it was such a strong episode pretty much anything was going to be pale in comparison. Might as well make it purposefully so (TPTB needed time to recover).

[dogeared.livejournal.com]

This made me cackle! :D

[suzy_queue]

ROTFL! I think I read this when you first posted, but now I know the episode. Heh. Yes, I think this about tops the episode. LOL

"... shallow, poorly thought out filler..."

AMEN. That was mind-numbingly bad.
