Interventions

[eruthros]

So I was having one of those conversations you have with fannish friends. You know. thingswithwings was telling me a story idea, and she said, god, what am I even doing, somebody's gonna stage an intervention any day now. And I, of course, pointed out that this was Stargate: Atlantis, and that you probably couldn't get an intervention for anything less than "the story in which Rodney and John sit in the office all day without talking to each other and just do paperwork," and perhaps not even then.

So, guys, what does it take to get an intervention in SGA? How far do you have to go?

Like, imagine your fannish friend who's been with you for the last three fandoms. You even bailed out of the X-Files at the same time! It has been so wonderful and lovely. But now she's gone a little bit off the rails in this wild and crazy SGA fandom.

... this entire thread is astonishing unto me. Flensing? Assassin-Mulder? Latkes? Huh?

I remember absolutely nothing of any of these plot points. Including the flensing. And I could swear I read Iolokus ten years ago. Perhaps I blocked it out?

http://www.geocities.com/mustangsally78/msrtindex.htm Did you read all 5 parts? (#5 is the treacle monster story, published much later.)

#1 involved the magically healing sex with Marita
#2 was the one where the clones were introduced (and something else happens)
#3 is serial killer territory (flensing)
#4 involves spurious lawsuits and Evil Hijinkery, also lots and lots of goopy sex (I say that literally) and the best nanny you could ever want.

It is a thing. (The whole series is spot-the-fic-stereotype, but it becomes really obvious in #4.)
