UPDATED: June 8th 2016 - Wow, it's been years since I've done anything one here. Years that have included multiple moves, growing in my marriage, three beautiful children, and now a tiny farm with pigs, goats, chickens, rabbits, and one nutty dog. I haven't written much of anything in so long that I feel rusty. Maybe it's time to dig out the old files and attempt some sort of updates...

I am just a loyal fan to several shows who wants to write things the way they SHOULD happen. I am unhappy with some of the character interactions, relationships (or lack thereof), and storylines. These are my stories of love, romance, humor, teasing, and just plain utter stupidness and silliness. I also sometimes co-author with my friend (pen name: RoughIslandSunrise) under the pen name BelovedSunrise. Thank you for reading my stories, and please let me know what you think of them! Also -- my favorite shows (so far) are Stargate: SG-1, Stargate: Atantis, NCIS, JAG, House, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Scrubs, Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, Walker Texas Ranger, The X-Files, Witchblade, Star Trek: Voyager, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Touched By An Angel! I also like ER! I've also been known to catch the occasional episode of Charmed or MASH. In addition, my favorite books include the "Harry Potter" series, the "Twilight" series, the "Circle of Magic/Circle Opens" series by Tamora Pierce, the "Clan of the Cave Bear" series, nearly anything Peg Kehret, and most things magic, vampire, werewolf, or werecat. [Update: Over the years, I've also gotten into everything from Bones to Jane the Virgin lol. And I've fallen out of love with a fair few of the old shows, too.]

My current favorite 'ships are:
Sam/Jack (SG-1)
Daniel/Janet (SG-1)
John/Elizabeth (Atlantis)
Teyla/Ronon (Atlantis)
Tony/Ziva (NCIS)
Mac/Harm (JAG)
Grissom/Sara (CSI)
Olivia/Elliot (SVU)

I also like Walker/Alex (Walker), Sydney/Gage (Walker), Trivette/Erika (Walker)Scully/Mulder (X-Files), Sara/Ian (Witchblade), Janeway/Chakotay (Voyager), Paris/Torres (Voyager), Kim/Seven (Voyager), Doctor/Seven (Voyager), Picard/Crusher (Next Gen), Riker/Troi (Next Gen), Monica/Andrew (TBAA), and various 'ships on ER..

I am also a firm believer that, while Casey Novak is a good - OK, great - ADA for "Law Order: Special Victims Unit", Alexandra Cabot REALLY needs to come back. There's just no replacing a woman like that...

Vala: (to the Chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee) “So, I have to assume that the reason why you want to build more ships is, like other men, you like big machines, with big engines, that fire big missiles, because you have a deep-seated need to overcompensate for your own shortcomings.”
…a few minutes later, back at the SGC…
Landry: (to Cameron) “She accused the Chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee of having… well, let’s just call it an insufficient manhood. She’s got to go.”

Jack: “It’s just an astronomical term.”
Sam: “You didn’t think the Colonel had a telescope on his roof just to look at the neighbors, did ya?” (she and Daniel walk away)
Jack: (sighs; says to Teal’c) “Not initially.”

Bud: “Oh, sir, you gotta hear this. It’s ridiculus.” (Mac gives him a Look)
Bud: (continuing; attempting – and failing – to keep a straight face) “In a serious sort of way, sir.”
Mac: “I’m representing Seaman Apprentice Charles Bander. He released two Navy dolphins from a marine mammal deployment center.”
Harm: “Why?”
Bud: “They think he did it on porpoise, sir.”
Mac: “He felt he owed them a debt.”
Bud: “You know, kind of a squid pro quo, sir.”
Mac: “He was caught by one of the trainers in the dolphins’ pen with a bucket of fish.”
Bud: “Red herring, probably. You know, trying to avoid pursuit.”
Mac: “One more fish joke and I will have you filleted.” (Bud’s eyes widen)
Harm: “What happened to the dolphins?”
Mac: “Well, they, uh, came back on their own.”
Bud: “What would you charge him with, sir?”
Harm: “Well, there’s Article 96: Releasing a prisoner without authorization.”
Mac: (to both men, exasperated) “You enjoying yourselves?” (gives both men a Look)
Vukovic: (approaches the table the trio is sitting at) “Room for one more?”
Mac: “Yeah, if you promise no fish jokes.”

(Walker has put some tuxedos, for his and Alex’s wedding, in Trivette’s car)
Walker: “Now, be careful with the tuxedos. Don’t wrinkle them.”
Trivette: “Will you relax?”
Gage: “Nothing’s gonna happen to the tuxes, Walker. Later!”
Gage: (to Trivette) “...You know, the only person more nervous than Walker is Sydney.”
Trivette: “Why is she nervous?”
Gage: “She’s been worried since day one that we weren’t gonna get these tuxes in time for the wedding.”
RADIO: “All units, report of a 2-11 in progress at the First Bank of South Dallas...”
(they go to the bank robbery in Trivette’s car. One of the robbers has a grenade, with which he tries to use. Gage kicks the grenade under Trivette’s car, then realizes his mistake)
Gage: “Whoops!”
Trivette: “Duh!”
(Trivette’s car blows up)
Trivette: “Noooo!”

Chakotay: (to Kathryn) “I can tell you a story, an ancient legend among my people. It’s about an angry warrior who lived his life in conflict with the rest of his tribe, a man who couldn't find peace even with the help of his spirit-guide. For years he struggled with his discontent. But the only satisfaction he ever got when he was in battle. This made him a hero among his tribe, but the warrior still longed for peace within himself. One day he and his war party were captured by a neighboring tribe, led by a woman warrior. She called on him to join her because her tribe was too small and weak to defend itself from all its enemies. The woman warrior was brave and beautiful, and very wise. The angry warrior swore to himself he would stay by her side, doing whatever he could to make their burden lighter her needs would come first and in that way the warrior began to know the true meaning of peace.”
Kathryn: “Is that… really… an ancient legend?”
Chakotay: “No. But it made it easier to say.”

“If my dog had your face, I’d shave his butt and teach him to walk backwards.”

“General,” Jack spoke before the idea had even formed. And then it had. “Sorry to interrupt but...I think I have an idea.”
Everyone present stared at him. A SF walking past nearly collided with the wall.

The Jaffa shot Daniel an inscrutable look. Actually, most of Teal’c’s looks were inscrutable, but O’Neill was pretty sure that this particular expression was one he adopted to keep from saying “You’re a dumbass.” As the one usually on the receiving end of this look, O’Neill felt uniquely qualified to identify it when he saw it.

“So why not send Kavanaugh to talk to Beckett if you’re too busy?” Sheppard spoke to McKay but gave Daniel a wink as if to say ‘watch this!’.
“Oh, puh-lease! The man has the personality of a fence post. And his incompetence is only superseded by his superciliousness. To be honest, I believe I’d prefer a trio of baby howler monkeys nest on my head as to listen to the man’s inane drivel.”
Daniel pressed his lips together and slowly moved a hand to his mouth to cover a small smile starting to form there. He looked at Sheppard and saw an amused tinkle light up Sheppard’s eyes as McKay continued to rant.
“Most people don’t use half the brain God gave them but Kavanaugh is firing on all cylinders and still falls short.”
“Now Rodney, that’s not fair. Calvin has made a few contributions here and there.”
McKay rolled his eyes. “I’m sorry, did we step into a Twilight Zone episode and no one bothered to tell me? ‘Few’ being the operative word here, John. Let’s not lose perspective.”
