Ode to...something.

[mrv3000]

Hmm. Maybe the SG-1 cast can join up with BSG... Heh.

In the midst of all the letters, petitions, anti-letters, anti-petitions, "don't touch SGA, bitch!", rumors, etc. I'd thought about doing an ode to SG-1. Of course, that ode quickly turned into an ode to certain people in fandom. And after I couldn't remember if I knew nandamai before or after I started writing SG-1 fic, I gave up. I mean, I remember the marriage proposal to josephides and myself early on which was a result of the D&S fic, but it's all kinda hazy. Although, I have the feeling that proposal happened when Jojo was still a minor. Yeah, nanda's *so* going to jail.

But just so many people I've met through SG-1. Some have parted ways with me, but most are still around. It's very cool.

Over the years there was wank. There was drama. And some drama that I will NEVER tell about that still amuses me to this day.

But mostly, it was fun. Wouldn't have missed it for the world.

It does make you nostalgic, doesn't it? Fandom going KA-BLOOEY! Only, this time, all the sides are blowing up at once.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Yup! meow-BOOM!

[splash-the-cat.livejournal.com]

Aww. I remember when I first stumbled into fandom and stared reading all the weiner journals, and thought, "Those guys are NUTS."

:)

In the end, it's the insanity that will keep you sane... :D

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Heh. I remember when you came into the fandom as well. Everyone was like, "OMG. Good fic!" "Can we lick her?" "God, no! She'll get scared."

[poohmusings.livejournal.com]

And then you licked her anyway. :D

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Well, you know. What can I say? I get excitable sometimes.

I think about the only thing you had posted when we met was the meatballs one. Heh heh heh. YOU SAP.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm just an old softie underneath it all.

Meatballs...

Oh right! The 2002 Christmas challenge! How sad is it that I had to look at the fic because for the life of me I couldn't remember why there was "meatballs" in the title?

And I knew it was somewhere around there. Still remember the email from Jojo saying, "OMG. You must go here and read this fic NOW. Do it NOW. OMG." And then we started stalking your diary-x journal. Heh heh.

I'm only realising now how many of my flist I meet through SG-1. Every other post is about something to do with SG.

I'm also trying not to think back on all the times I totally over-reacted. Although I did get some glee out of posting how good the first Pete episode was. Because dude, it was good. Until he stalked her. /off-track rambling

Yeah, I'd say a good 85% of my flist is from SG-1.

I'm also trying not to think back on all the times I totally over-reacted.

Yeah, I'm sure I did as well.

Ha!

[makesometime.livejournal.com]

I so remember reading that!

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Yup! And commented! HEE!!

[diavestra.livejournal.com]

hahaha. I have known nanda for over a decade now.....and she inflicted all of you on me. Seems like only yesterday when Jojo was heading off to uni for the first time. *sigh*

[josephides.livejournal.com]

Hey, I was legal. Just.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Legal over there's like 12 or something though, right?

[josephides.livejournal.com]

Yes. As you know, most of my friends married at 14 but I shamed by family by seeking higher education and shunning the life as a child bride.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

You rebel, you. You're kind of like Lizzie in the Jane Austin novel! Well, you were already with your tea parties and cross stitching and wandering around in the garden, reading books. As is the norm for any young lady in England.

[josephides.livejournal.com]

At the weekends, for a change of scene, I'd sometimes darn socks too.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Well, naturally.

*gets all nostalgic*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I know! :)

[woodface]

Stargate is my one and only online fandom. I think I've now truly gone through all the phases you can go through in a fandom.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I bet. *petpetpet*

[woodface]

*clings*

*hugs fandom*

[hyari.livejournal.com]

*hugs fandom friends*

Man, it seems like jsut the other day I was reading about the renewal of SG-1 into the 7th season on Helio, and I had no one to glee with and feeling rather lonely. At least now we have fandom friends to commiserate with for the ending.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Aw, yeah. *hugs*

[pixiesio.livejournal.com]

{{hugs}} *shares brownies*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Oooh, brownies! *hugs*

[yamadara.livejournal.com]

nanda proposed to you and jojo? i thought she was your mommy?

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

It's a very incestuous relationship.

But just so many people I've met through SG-1.

That's one of the main things I will take with me from this fandom. The friends it gave me. I wouldn't gave gone to Ierland this summer if I hadn't met misssimm three years ago. I would have never had the wonderful memories of both Alias Cons of the past two years and everyone I met there.

But mostly, it was fun. Wouldn't have missed it for the world.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Yup! Wouldn't have gone to Boston myself if not for SG-1. :)
