"No Goa'uld threatens MY city and gets away with it!"

And so well "armed" at that!

Guh... if I could see the thigh holster too I might seriously explode.

That's his "SRS BIZNESS" face. In a fanfic, someone once wrote Rodney as thinking, "Why don't people run away when they see that face? Are they stupid?"

[elderwitty]

Do you have a link? Or a title/author?

'Cause I need to read that story. The author is obviously perceptive. :)

[teenygozer.livejournal.com]

I'm relatively certain it's from one of the Retrograde-universe stories, found here:

http://www.ltljverse.com/watergate/

I often find that quotes that stick in my mind from SGA fanfic turns out to be from one of ltlj's stories.

[elderwitty]

Thanks for letting me know. I'll go over and have a looksee.

[lunate8.livejournal.com]

I highly recommend all of the Retrograde stories, too. You probably already found the line by now, but it's in the conclusion (http://www.ltljverse.com/watergate/stories/recovery3.htm) of Recovery (http://www.ltljverse.com/watergate/stories/recovery.htm).

From Rodney's POV: "[Sheppard's] eyes were intent and very green and flat, like they got when he had been killing people who were too stupid to run away when they had the chance."

I've read them all...I just didn't equate the series name with the stories (buh-der!). I spent a couple (three) hours "just reading one more short one" before I finally sent myself to bed at 5am. :g:

Thanks for letting me know which story it's in. I'll probably re-read the whole series in the next couple of weeks or so. (That's how it works - my brain gets a phrase or action caught in it, and the next thing you know, I'm re-reading epic series instead of finding entries for the AU list. :bg:)

[lunate8.livejournal.com]

Glad it was helpful! I'm still new-ish to SGA fic and I was surprised I'd recognized the phrase. Turns out it was because I'd podficced Recovery about two months ago. *facepalm*

The Giant AU List is awesome, thanks for compiling that!

[elderwitty]

Hah! Don't you love that? I think the problem is that there's so much awesome SGA fic out there that it sometimes blurs together...especially when you read as much of it as I do.

If you're new-ish, have you found the wonder that is sheafrotherdon's A Farm in Iowa series yet? Here's the chronological list. Run, don't walk, to read it. (My icon is how Iowa!John looks in my mind.)

Thanks! I'm actually working on it today. I'm trolling around mcshep_match for new additions. Translation: I'm reading fic again. :g:

[teenygozer.livejournal.com]

Have you somehow missed the Retrograde stories? Because if you haven't read them before, you have a real treat coming to you!

[duckyone.livejournal.com]

Come on, Joe. Shoot me with your Love Gun.

[aqualegia.livejournal.com]

I love this 'no nonsense' pose; as it also shows off his arms, wristband and fingers :)

[em_kellesvig]

He has the longest torso in two galaxies. And the skinniest hips. But that badass face is just -- wow.

[gaffsie.livejournal.com]

His torso is just... GUH

[kristen999.livejournal.com]

This is so hot! Arms of guh, thigh holster, GUN! And what seriously bad assed, pissed off face. Bad guys must've cowered everywhere at that expression.

[black-raven135.livejournal.com]

there are some fine shots of Sheppard in Critical Mass and this has
to be one of them
**mind wanders happily**

[black-raven135.livejournal.com]

I still don't think as bad ass as Midway where Sheppard displays some
fine firepower..............
I have a few shots that are terrific, particularly in HD.......
>:-)

That camera needs to angled down a little more.

[elderwitty]

I'd love to make some punny comment like, "He's hot as a pistol" but I can't pull my eyes away from his waist/waistband/gunbelt interaction area.

[tavabean.livejournal.com]

lean mean fighting machine!

[altyronsmaker.livejournal.com]

OMgosh. when you click on it it gets bigger. Yes please. *sweating eyeballs*

He's so very deliciously hairy, and masculine and byooteeful. *sigh* Lovelyl

[rellan.livejournal.com]

when you click on it it gets bigger.

Amen to that.

[caramel-monkey.livejournal.com]

I need to make an icon with this. *blinks*

[duffy-99.livejournal.com]

The Torso of Delight! I can't stop staring...

[rubygirl29.livejournal.com]

(((Moan)))

So cruel! What a great pic. Love the hips, the holster, the arms, the gun, the sexy black t-shirt, the wristband, the hair, the seriously pissed off expression ... everything!

Just what I needed in the cold and the snow. I'm all toasty now.

[wild-cat.livejournal.com]

I risk to be uninterestingly original here, but isn't Critical Mass episode 2x13, then why SGA5 is written in the post, or am I missing something and 5 is not the season? %-)

(thanks for all the pictures of course, I'm now slowly navigating deeper back in time and some of them are quite breathtaking surprises I never saw before!)

[rellan.livejournal.com]

HUH? GUH! *THUD!!*

[ninja007.livejournal.com]

I really, really love the way his belt hangs....

[margec01.livejournal.com]

One of my favorite John poses and pics. I'm not quite sure why I find the pic of a man with a gun so compelling, aside from the hotness that is. Perhaps because he looks so dangerous, and determined, BUT we know he is a good guy so it is a protective dangerous.
