butterfly twisted my arm, and then gave me three characters, one to marry, one to shag, and one to "cliff." I get to pick which one's which. The candidates are the Female Leaders of Stargate: Atlantis, Teyla, Elizabeth, and Sam.


The quickest decision was which one to knock off: Elizabeth.

Not that I hate her inherently, but of the three of them she's the least useful to have around in a pinch. I mean, seriously, a diplomatic argument is to repeat herself, only slower? OTOH, she's easy on the eyes and her voice is inoffensive. Apparently, that's not enough to save her life.

To shag: I'd have to say Sam.

Most know how I feel about shagging anything not run on batteries (which is to say, I'd just as soon not), so this choice is pretty much by default. I like Sam, but I'm saving marriage for Teyla.

Oops, I just gave it away. To marry: Teyla

This was a hard call. I mean, Sam and I have the whole physics/math thing in common, whereas Teyla is -- way more like butterfly than like me, what with the interest in social justice and bemused bafflement with my science-y ways. And I've learned that it's way more important to share interests we can tackle as a team than to have a common interest in an area where I feel competitive.

Also: check out that body language! Way less defensive than the other two.
