i. Have just watched Bones. it was good. She stole his fries, so it must be love. :) Is there any fic about this? Brennan/Boothe, that is.
ii. Am entertaining self by imagining various AU scenarios for SGA. So far, I've got...
Academics in the Field of English (which, to be honest, would probably not amuse anyone but me, but then again it's amusing me a lot *g*)
Rodney is a brilliant linguist, is very hard to work with and but is great for RAE because he's developed a whole new theory of language and has loads of publications. The students hate him because he keeps saying things like "What do you mean you can't learn 21 different languages, are you retarded or something?". John, on the other hand, is from the field of literary studies (the soft sciences *g*), and is a Romanticist, specialising in the poetry of Percy Bysshe Shelley. Rodney keeps making jokes about drowning and free love, and John responds by quoting horrific gothic romances. (Oh and Elizabeth is Head of School, and a post-colonialist. Teyla is a visiting scholar, specialising in her dying, tiny language and Ronon does physical theatre. Cadman, of course, does post-feminist theory. *g*) Smut ensues.
Hogwarts Teachers
Rodney (Ravenclaw) teaches Transfiguration after McGonagall and speaks loudly about the Gryffindor bias in the school and how nobody ever learns anything. John (Slytherin) comes to teach DADA. Nobody trusts him because he's the first Slytherin to hold a post since Snape. Except Rodney, of course, who only cares about whether the Quidditch practice John teaches in his spare time bothers his classes. Since, for some reason, they always seem to take place just outside Professor McKay's classroom. There might be housepoints for how many funny faces you can make while hanging upside down from your broom and giving Rodney palpitations. Smut ensues.
Yes, my mind is a sick, sick place, why do you ask?

The biggest comm I know of is
(PS I agree with you, that it's about values rather than actual traits - doesn't JKR say as much somewhere?)

*g* I believe you that SGA is addictive and I know for a fact there's good fic out there. :) I just can't enjoy fanfic without knowing the source material, and I've been far too lazy to try to hunt down the source.
