In the Clinic

[deelaundry]

I have now seen two episodes of Stargate: Atlantis, and it is awesome.

NIGHTDOG: Sci-Fi channel has an SGA mini-marathon tomorrow (5/21)starting at 8 am, with eight S1 episodes.

Silly House/SGA crossover quick ficlet:

"Where the hell have you been?" John Sheppard barked at the man who was finally making his way into the exam room.

"Getting grilled by this hospital's Accounting baboons. As you well know, I have one of the top minds on the planet but even I can't figure out how the damn US health insurance system works. Throw the military private-pay reimbursement system on top, and it's all a mess. I had to hand over a credit card before they'd let me out of their evil clutches."

Grimacing and trying not to clutch too hard at his stomach, Sheppard replied, "Rodney, it's a free clinic. How did you end up having to talk to Accounting anyway?"

McKay waved his hands as he paced. "I don't know. Have you seen a doctor yet? I need to get out of here and back to the campus. Spergel is completely mistaken with about half of his theories, and his data are ridiculously outdated of course, given what we've found at Atlantis, but he's got some interesting ideas on -"

At Sheppard's groan, McKay cut off abruptly, and his face took on a look of concern. "I'll go find your doctor. What was his name? Or her name, I suppose, it really could be either -"

"Wilson," Sheppard ground out through clenched teeth. "James Wilson."

McKay patted Sheppard's shoulder. "James Wilson. Got it. Isn't that a strange coincidence? Remember I told you I dated a Jamie Wilson in college who was pre-med."

"How can I forget your one girlfriend?"

"I've had more than one girlfriend," McKay replied indignantly, as the exam room door opened.

The doctor walking in was looking back at the man following him into the room, still carrying on a previous conversation. "And that's why you don't have credit at the cafeteria any more, House."

As he was turning toward Sheppard and McKay, his voice slipped into a more professionally smooth tone. "Good news, Mr. Sheppard, the test shows you definitely do not have -" He broke off completely as he caught sight of McKay; both his and McKay's jaws dropped slightly.

"Mer?" Wilson asked, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

"Jamie?" McKay responded, sounding similarly incredulous.

Sheppard looked between the two of them, and then up at the other doctor. House had a hint of mischief in his eyes as he walked up to McKay. "Gregory House," he said and stuck out his hand in greeting.

"Rodney McKay," McKay replied automatically, although he ignored the outstretched hand in favor of continuing to gawk at Wilson.

"Ha!" House crowed, and jabbed toward Wilson with his index finger. "In all those McGill stories, I knew there was something you weren't telling me about your lovely and talented girlfriend Meredith McKay!"

"Rodney!" McKay protested, as Sheppard reached out and grabbed the front of Wilson's lab coat.

"My gut is still killing me. Drugs?"

Wilson shook his head as if to clear it and then smiled reassuringly. "Yes, yes." He moved away and opened a drawer, searching through it.

Sheppard looked over at McKay, who was suddenly finding the floor fascinating. "You said your Jamie was blond. And a woman."

"Technically, I only implied Jamie was a woman. And he was blond."

Smirking heavily, House pushed Sheppard over a bit and hauled himself up onto the exam table next to him. "Wilson, your college days just get more and more interesting."

"They were highlights," Wilson mumbled, and ignored the impulse to inject House with the drugs instead and make good his escape.

There's something to SGA, and for the life of me I can't quite figure out what it is. Not that I care too much, as it's one of the best sources of pure entertainment from TV in the past few years.

[nightdog-barks.livejournal.com]

Yay! I hadn't looked at the TV schedule yet, and thus I am very happy!

I'm really glad you like SGA -- it's fun to share stuff like this with a good friend.

And I really, really enjoy the McShep dynamic. Hee.

[purridot.livejournal.com]

Isn't it awesome? elynittria converted me; and when RL is too stressful, I pop in a DVD, pour myself a glass of sherry and go through the gate. :-)

Those involved in the show seem to take real pleasure in producing it, and I think the viewers can sense that warmth. To me the characters are delightful and quirky without being terribly sanctimonious (à la Star Trek), the sets are wonderfully non-claustrophobic (although the outside shots of the "different" planets all look like British Columbia, LOL), and I find the witty repartee and pseudo-science to be engaging rather than over-the-top or silly...

Okay, I'll stop gushing except to say that like Hugh Laurie, the actor who plays Dr. McKay does the near impossible: he makes an ass seem endearing!

Can't wait to read your crossover, hee!!!

[nightdog-barks.livejournal.com]

HA!

I knew it was McGill, as soon as I read your summary! This is really nice, Dee!

I would love to see an extended crossover with the four boys and the rest of the casts. Hee.

[hannahrorlove.livejournal.com]

In regards to the story: it makes a surprisingly large amount of sense, given Wilson's ability to hold his own against misanthropic geniuses and apparent college attendance record. And I love that he focuses on the blond part of the description.

[leaper182.livejournal.com]

You've been converted to SGA! Hurray! Watch lots more episodes. I wrote a fic, but it's not McKay/Sheppard. *^^*

*reads snippet*

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

*wheezes because she can't breathe from laughing too hard*

I love you so much. *draws hearts all over this ficlet*

[bironic.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy you and Nightdog are watching and loving SGA now too!

McKay/Wilson = hot. It's also a compliment for Wilson that McKay found him smart enough to tolerate (like House did), and amusing that Wilson might see the same thing in House that made him want to sleep with McKay. *g*

Stay tuned on my LJ for a filtered House/SGA WIP

[thedeadparrot.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha. Awesome.

Oh, Rodney.

Oh, Wilson.

[savemoony.livejournal.com]

Wait. Wait. Do you think SGA is awesome... or the fandom. Because there's a difference.... HAHAHA.

And this? Makes me so happy. So Happy

[purridot.livejournal.com]

Ha! Clearly those background canon details were carefully inserted into the shows... it was meant to be :D

"HIGHLIGHTS!"

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

It's fun! Just as you said, pure TV entertainment (with a side order of yummy slashfic). (Wonder if it being Canadian gives it a twist?)

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo! I recorded six of them (ran out of recording room because too many House episodes, hee), and will start watching tonight. Yay!

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes, as you say, it's obvious that everyone is having a very good time. (Except Caldwell, for me. He seems like he is secretly evil and I don't know why...) One thing I noticed is that people touch each other more than they do on, say, House. It's amusing to go from the emotionally/socially blunted (stunted?) show to one where it's just a touch more affectionate.

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Hee, hee, hee. I didn't even bother to check if McGill has an astrophysics program because I wanted this x-over to have happened so deeply. Maybe Rodney needed to go to college somewhere close by for financial or other reasons, and then later transferred to somewhere that had a hope of professors who could actually teach him something. (XD)

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Heh, heh. And it would possibly factor into Wilson's relationship track record too - how's any woman going to hold a candle to Rodney McKay?

Wilson (RSL) as a blond would be kind of freaky, don't you think?

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

I recorded a bunch today and will watch some tonight!

The snippet was tons of fun to write - so glad you liked it. *hugs*

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Ooh, ooh, can't wait to see that House/SGA fic!

Sheppard/Wilson would be yummy, too, wouldn't it?

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Fankoo! It's no McKay/House high school AU fic, though. : (

[bironic.livejournal.com]

Sheppard/Wilson, mmm, yes. Pretty much any combination of the four of them would be damn hot, IMO. It's just, perhaps unfortunately, easier to have Rodney or House in a pairing because they have such big personalities.

[bironic.livejournal.com]

*butts in* Leaper, I just have to say, every time I see that icon I can't stop grinning. Zelenka is so helplessly adorable.

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

SGA! It's just so frickin' fun. (Not saying I don't love the McShep slash. Nope, not saying that at all.)

And thank you! Wilson as a blond - I can't even picture it. Hee, hee, hee.

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

I crack myself up, because I can't stop giggling. Meredith & Jamie, tee hee hee.

And can you imagine Wilson's hair being blond and/or highlighted? Now I want RSL to dye his hair so I can see it!

[leaper182.livejournal.com]

He is! Sadly, that's one of two SGA icons I have.

The other being frustrated!Radek, used in this comment.

:D

[leaper182.livejournal.com]

*butts in*

Dude, Sheppard/Wilson would be so much pretty in one bed that laws of physics would break.

Dare I say, Sheppard/Wilson would be TOO much pretty?

Sheppard/Wilson: Too much pretty for one bed to contain!

[bironic.livejournal.com]

Is that a challenge?

[leaper182.livejournal.com]

*strokes chin*

*slooow smile*

Maaaybe?

[bironic.livejournal.com]

p.s.

Dude, Sheppard/Wilson would be so much pretty in one bed that laws of physics would break.

At least Rodney would be there to fix them. Ha ha ha. Ha. Heh. *hem*

Though he'd stare a lot first at the pretty. With House beside him. GAPING.

[leaper182.livejournal.com]

House/Rodney would be all kinds of antagonistic and angry!sex and sniping and Not Liking Each Other at All.

But it would be so so fun to see them manipulating each other into bed. Though House would manipulate, and Rodney would knock House out with his own cane and drag him off somewhere.

:D

[debris_k.livejournal.com]

Squeeeeee! *tackles you with a hug*

I'm a sucker for House/SGA crossovers, and this? Priceless. Where have you been been hiding that I only found it now?

Also, Wilson would *so* brag for having dated Rodney *cough*Meredith*cough McKay in college. *nodnodnod*

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm very new to SGA. Check out gate_house; there's a post with all the House/SGA crossovers we could find.

[debris_k.livejournal.com]

I joined it what, last week? Just haven't had the time (yet!) to go over all the posts/recs there.

There should be more House/RodneySGA crossovers out there. It's the ultimate crack.

[wihluta.livejournal.com]

AWESOME!

I can sooooooo see this happening!
"Mer?" Wilson asked, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.
"Jamie?" McKay responded, sounding similarly incredulous.

ROFL...

And yes, SGA and House are the best shows currently on TV. :-)

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't it be funny? Heh.

SGA is so much fun. New season starts soon!

[wihluta.livejournal.com]

New season starts soon!

I KNOW!!!!! *jumps happily up and down*
Sept. 28th. only three days after House!

Oh the happiness... and the worry, cause I seriously have to study for exams...
