dragojustineI found a debate watch group to watch with last night. Yaay social interaction! With pretty Obama-voting boys. Also? I want that man to be president SO BADLY. Mental agility, clear intelligence, superb verbal skills, critical thinking, generosity and respect combined with firm and well-articulated differences of opinion grounded in fact! It's like night and day from Bush. I WANT this man to be president.
I kind of think that the casting of Castiel is the best thing that's happened to this show since the casting of John.
I still say that if Dean turns out to be Special, I will hate hate hate. But so far this season as a whole looks pretty good. And if we keep getting Castiel being world-weary and ineffable and powerful and menacing by turns, and seeing him up in Dean's face with super-closeups of his lips? Well, that will make up for a lot.
SO MUCH LOVE for that SGA episode. I love how just knowing that Ronon is on the Daedalus makes me sure that everything will be okay- Ronon, you kick so much ass. Woolsey and Caldwell were... Woolsey and Caldwell. Zelenka! So much Zelenka love. John really doesn't like being in command-- with good reason, since Jack might KILL him for losing Daniel. And John and Rodney being basically psychic from half a galaxy away. It's not quite the same as Jack and Daniel communicating volumes just by saying each other's names, but it is a very closely related sort of zing, and I LOVE it.
And, of course, the real point: Daniel and Rodney!
I loved every minute of their interaction, starting with the very first time Daniel greets Rodney. Seriously, have you ever heard so much incredibly sarcastic, "my, aren't we going to have fun?" packed into one word?
And Rodney being competitive about everything! And their wonderful moment of genuine connection on the subject of civilian academic recognition- what a perfect point of connection for those two characters. Though I admit, I had always assumed (this is probably fanon) that the civilian consultants make rather more than the equivalent military personnel (ie, Daniel makes more than Jack, at least pre-promotion, and Rodney makes more than John).
And Daniel's smile when Rodney is all, "see, my boyfriend is smart!" That man redefines gorgeous. Though I do notice that MS has put on some padding up front. But his SMILE. His smile can still just light rooms.
Pretty much from the moment they woke up in the green-laser cell and Rodney gets shocked and says "you could have warned me!" and Daniel is all, "I could have, yes," I was pretty much endlessly in love with the two of them together. I could watch them snark at each other FOREVER. I want ENDLESS amounts of RodneyandDaniel snark. And, if possible, endless super-snarky Daniel/Rodney with angsty sublimated OTP. Or! Pining!John POV of DanielandRodney snark.
And, in conclusion: Daniel Jackson, I am so hot for you.
