Oh, flist, I am having one of those itchy restless days where you can't settle to a single task and yet you feel like you want to do *something*. I haven't written a word in months but I'm wondering if I might have a story in me that's causing this annoying sensation. Prompt me? I'll do my best.

p.s. Europe was lovely, saw lots of sparktastic, and am happy to be at home again. Except for the restless bit.

Are you taking prompts for any particular fandom? I came across your stuff through SGA, but I don't know if you're still working with those characters.

Hmmm - how about, what would happen if the magical insta-language translator that mysteriously works for the gates suddenly failed? I remember one short story from someone that touched on this idea, but it's something I'd really like explored in depth.

[toomuchplor.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, I'm definitely still in SGA mode -- that is, as much as I'm in ANY mode after a writing hiatus of 6 months!

I remember the fic you're referencing, by trinityofone. It's a good topic because I've always felt that TPTB missed out on a lot by going the easy sci-fi route and making everyone speak English, but I confess that I tend to do as they do and pretend that it doesn't pose any difficulty b/c I can't come up with a plausible device to make it make SENSE. It'd be kind of awesome if SG teams returned to Earth with the ability to understand and speak ALL languages, though, huh? Like, suddenly, Rodney is conversing in clicks with a Xhosa and Keller is fluent in Cantonese?

Hrm, might be something in there... Thanks for the thoughts!

Because I still can't stop staring at it, John/Rodney+this (http://www.zimbio.com/pictures/kPQ1oSV3Wpr/Open+Swimming+Training+Session+Rod+Laver+Arena/JIfysAMUWqk/Amaury+Leveaux), please!

Also, welcome back! :)

Ahaha, love that icon so much!

Thanks, good to be back! I'm still at the staring-blankly-at-a-Word-window stage but thank you for the prompt! Hopefully it will be fertile writing ground.

Tentacle!fic! *cough*

[toomuchplor.livejournal.com]

Hee! *cough*THESEED OMG*cough*

[aurora]

INDEED. You don't even have to look too far - it's canon! :D

[runpunkrun]

Is it possible Rodney's competing in the Olympics for Canada as a gymnast or diver? It's all physics! John is there too. Doing...something. Maybe the long jump, or the steeplechase.

Or maybe something with phone sex?

On the other hand, John and Rodney could always go camping, on earth.

[toomuchplor.livejournal.com]

Oh, if only I were having of the TV and could watch Olympics to glean enough diving-talk to fake it! Unfortunately I'm on peasant-vision -- and the non-antenna variety at that!

I like the camping, hrm...

[runpunkrun]

They probably have some video of dives up at the Olympics site. I'm just sayin'. *g*

How abbout some John/Rodney AU no stargate

[toomuchplor.livejournal.com]

I love AUs... thanks for the idea!

[desertpoet]

I love then too. They're my favorite :)

[teenygozer.livejournal.com]

So nice to see your name on my flist!

Huh... lemme see. You know Jack's clone, right? From SG-1? I always wanted him to be sent to Atlantis. Jack would be happier because, hey, the Milky Way is *his* galaxy and he doesn't share; the emo!codger would be happy because he has the gene and can fly ships and have adventures again. Plus, Carson is a clone, so he doesn't feel as funny about being one, too.

[toomuchplor.livejournal.com]

Haha, I love the clone idea, I really do. I think it was linabean who had that whole theory where John was actually Freaky Friday'ed, i.e. there was the mind of a twelve-year-old stuck in a grown man's body. It would explain so much. Also, it would mean that John and emo!codger would be, like, BFF.

I love your TW/MR Rps, "You Keep Me High." It's one of my favorite stories, and I would love to see a sequel, or something similar.

[toomuchplor.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow, it's been YONKS since I wrote any CW RPS, sadly. I feel far too out of touch with the boys to attempt it again, I'm a useless SPN fan and I haven't watched SV in three seasons. Thanks for the prompt though! I should have specified fandom, I'm so monofannish.

[lexalicious70.livejournal.com]

Oh. It's okay . . . can't say I'm not disappointed, as I ADORE "You Keep Me High," but it's all good. :) Thanks for letting me know.

Europe IS lovely. I should know; I live here. *g*

Not on your flist, but may I still prompt?

John/Rodney, flanker, to externalise, augmentative

[toomuchplor.livejournal.com]

You may ALWAYS prompt, I'm a total whore for plot bunnies and prompts. I may not always pick them up directly but they can get my brain going sometimes when I'm stuck!
