the revenge of the web orders

[mylittleredgirl]

I feel horribly ganged-up upon by inanimate objects. And, I suppose, the total strangers (who are animate) sending these inanimate emails and telephone calls. Just... a *lot* of web orders. And emails. And the phone hasn't stopped ringing such that I haven't even *listened* to my metric craploads of voicemails yet.

*buries head in paperwork, like ostrich*

I will get through today. I WILL.

I probably shouldn't have hit mystic_isles000, though. That was kind of unprofessional. Even though it was totally in self-defense because she jumped out at me from nowhere. *snuggles sister* She has apparently forgiven me, because she just came into my office and did her Jack-as-velociraptor-in-"Broca-Divide" impersonation for me. My day is much improved.

It's so nice to work in the same place, even if our coworkers (justifiably) believe we are complete and utter loony bin escapees.

That is just...so wrong, and yet rather amusing...

Did they ever mine in salt mines on the show? I remember one where Daniel went off to be semi-royalty and look hot, whilst the other three were mining *something*, but I don't remember what it was...Daniel got addicted to the sarcophagus, I believe...

Er. Yes. Eheh.

*innocent* Me, derail the conversation from naked!Jack to hot!Daniel??

they don't so much mine salt on SG-1. Naquadah, yes. Trinium. I don't think they've ever mined anything that can actually be formed by things that exist on our current periodic table.

Gotcha! (But of course. That would be boring! :D Bounce a graviton particle beam, etc.... I do love SF sometimes....)

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

I guess it's no odder than mining pergium, or dilithium. Except those sound real to me. Because I got geeked on Star Trek young.

And did we ever figure out what sort of "ore" got processed on Terok Nor? I think they do a lot of generic ore mining in Star Trek.

[nenya_kanadka]

LOL. Yes, generic mining, just like generic caves on away team missions.

But I think what they were processing on Terok Nor was uridium. I think that's Treknochemistry, too, but it sounds real enough....

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

YES! You're right.

And I'm an awful judge of whether something is Treknobabble or actually exists. Awful. When I was a kid, I thought fax machines were miniature transporters.

Hee!

[nenya_kanadka]

Awww, how cute! The little Trekkie is talking! :P No, seriously, that's great--I only discovered Star Trek after I was twenty, so I don't have any awesome stories like that to tell. I'm indoctrinating my small siblings, though. :D

As you should. It is important to bring the young from the darkness into the light.

That would be 'Need', and yeah, they were mining naquadah while Daniel got to camp it up.

Re: ...!

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

'cuz Daniel's so preeeeetty.

Sam and Jack should definitely have traded massages there. Definitely. And snuggled together for body heat at night. *nods* (and, I suppose, so that random miners and guards wouldn't try and snag her. Although it might be fun to watch them try, because she'd kick them in the head)

Gotta watch out for his team, and all...

Re: ...!

[lyssie.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah. The team. Definitely.

After all, being cold (and the whole not having painkillers and it being that time of the month --which is why you NEVER actually SEE Carter working, 'cause it hurts too damned much-- Jack's probably good at backrubs, because I betcha he did them for Sara. Even when she wasn't pregnant).

*pities Sam*

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

Oh, ew. That just cannot be pleasant in an unsanitary *mine.*

And Jack's *so* good at backrubs. And that talent should not be going to waste all this time, people. It's a crime, in fact.

Heh. They should totally borrow a page from Enterprise and have half-naked massage playtime as friends. For medical purposes. Well, I suppose that's one benefit of pants!verse :)

You're a bad influence, dude...

Sigh. La, Ah feel corrupted.

*shrieks*

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

OMG! AMAZING!! HAHAHA *dies*

Can I use that? Can I? Since I am the fluff wench? *pleads*

I could... like... promise to write you pants!verse (or !verse of your choice) fluff in exchange, or something... *bats eyes*

Re: *shrieks*

[lyssie.livejournal.com]

*snickers* Have it, darlin'.

I have too many of these damned things as it is... ;)

And, hell, pants!verse should always be written...

*LOVE!*

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

OMG. Love you. SO MUCH.

pants!verse SHOULD always be written! Perhaps after my doctor's appointment tomorrow I will declare it a Day Of Pants.

Muse appears amenable, but she is a fickle little wench.

YAY!

Re: ...!

[nenya_kanadka]

I am SO on a Ben/Kasidy kick right now. TheirloveissoSWEET! Watched "The Dogs of War" and drooled over everything except dying Cardies. :) And the icon is such fun!

*finalchapterisooooooh*

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

Man, I heart the final chapter. Except the baby thing, to be honest. I like it more now that I'm reading "Avatar" because it clicked that, oh, this is a mythology and that's necessary, but... eh. The marriage part is *adorable*, though! :) Theysocute.

But damn. That last big arc of DS9 is, like, the sexiest television EVER. I made at least two people get into the show and watch the entire series just so that they could watch and appreciate the final chapter. Breen! Damar! OdoandKira!! EZRI! Man, I loves it all.

Re: *finalchapterisooooooh*

[nenya_kanadka]

Hee. They ARE adorable. And the baby thing, with him being all "we're having a baby! and no, nothing bad is going to happen, because...well, because...but, it's not!" and being all protective. *huggles Ben* I sort of rolled my eyes at the mythology angle--I mean, this kid is going to have SO many expectations around it from the Bajoran populace at large, it's not even funny--but all the sadness and angst around them being all snuggly and newly-wed, and then Ben getting taken away...it just breaks my heart, but in a good way. Damn, but I want Ben back. :D

Re: *finalchapterisooooooh*

[mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com]

I guess I just felt like the baby was cliched (oh! we're ending a series! somebody needs to have a baby!) and it would have been still superangsty without it (since, JUST MARRIED). But they are so cute. I love their relationship.

I want *everybody* back.

Re: *finalchapterisooooooh*

[nenya_kanadka]

I know! I just watched WYLB (showed it to my mom, in the ongoing Convert Mum To Trekkieism Project) and felt so sad afterward (best ending scene ever, but makes me SO homesick!) that I had to go back and watch amusing Ezri episodes from earlier in the season in order to not get depressed. :) Odo leaving and Ben leaving were the saddest, I think.

Dude, they SO need to do a movie. But I think they won't. Argh.
