The [livejournal.com profile] sg1friendathon fics are due in two more weeks, on June 2. That gives me feelings of both wheeee! and eeeeeee!, because at 4,000 words, I'm still not quite halfway there, and hoo boy is Random going to have a lot to do on this one!

Betas are the queens of fandom. I just think that needs to be said more often.

How's your friendship ficathon story coming along? Comment here to commiserate or gloat or lend your moral support - or all three. :)

ETA: Whoops, forgot to ask: is there a Goa'uld term for the DHD, or should I just shamelessly steal Redbyrd's Skaara's term, which, IIRC, means something like "thing that goes with the chappa'ai"?

ETA2: Nope, not Redbyrd's, but Seanchaidh's, from part 3 of her Getting to Know You series:

"Well, Skaara did nickname it a raatan'ai," I admitted, "but I have no clue what the real name is..."

"Raw-what?" Jack frowned.

"What does that mean?" asked Sam, ever the curious.

"Um, 'little thing that goes with the Chaapa'ai,' actually."


Bad Fig Newton! No biscuit! I confused the two marvelous fill-in-the-blank episode rewrites that I've recced in the past: Redbyrd's Setting Up House was recced here, and Seanchaidh's Getting to Know You was recced here.

I, um, looked through the prompts, had one bite me, wrote almost 4,000 words of an idea I liked and then realized they all sucked a whole lot.

And then I had my brain get eaten by replicators.

Sadly it looks like I still won't be playing.

That could be a problem, as I'm relatively sure replicators weren't anywhere in the friendship list... :)

Thanks for trying, though! And who knows? A prompt bunny might still attack you between now and June 2!
