SGA Trading Cards

[moonlettuce]

ngaio and sethoz both asked me what the McKay quotes are in the Quotable Atlantis chase set, so I thought I'd write them up. Only, I couldn't leave out the other five, so here they all are:

There's one card per episode and 15 of them involve Rodney in some way *g*

Rising, part 1:

Dr McKay: We need the ZedPM to power the gate.
General O'Neill: What?
Dr Jackson: ZPM. He's Canadian.
General O'Neill: I'm sorry.

Rising, part 2:

Dr Beckett: How come I never get to make friends like that?
Dr McKay: You need to get out more.
Dr Beckett: We're in another galaxy. How much more 'out' can you get?

Hide And Seek:

Dr Weir: I'm still trying to understand how you thought it was a good idea to test this device by having someone throw you off a balcony.
Dr McKay: Oh, believe me, that's not the first thing we tried.
Major Sheppard: I shot him. In the leg.

Thirty-Eight Minutes:

Dr Kavanagh: I happily left the SGC because I had had it up to here with the military running things, and you busted like a private.
Dr Weir: Don't be so dramatic. Besides, the Air Force doesn't have privates.
Dr Kavanagh: Neither do I. You just cut them off. Right in front of my research team.

Suspicion:

Dr McKay: It's a command subroutine I've never seen before.
Dr Zelenka: What is its function?
Dr McKay: I don't know because I've never seen it before.

Childhood's End:

Major Sheppard: You think it's worth checking out?
Dr McKay: Any significant energy emission generally indicates technological civilisation.
Major Sheppard: So you think it's worth checking out.
Dr McKay: I'm sorry. Yes. Energy field good.

Poisoning The Well:

Dr McKay: No, no, no, he just doesn't like going through the Stargate.
Major Sheppard: He's worse than Dr McCoy.
Teyla: Who?
Major Sheppard: The TV character that Dr Beckett plays in real life.
Dr Beckett: Converting the human body into energy and sending it millions of light years through a wormhole. Bloody insanity!

Underground:

Dr McKay: You know, if people could just learn to keep their secret underground hatches locked...

Home:

Dr McKay: Oh, hey, I was just in the middle of a power nap, and... and I'm not wearing any pants.

The Storm:

Lt Ford: How could something as big as Atlantis just sink?
Major Sheppard: I'm sure the passengers on the Titanic were asking themselves the same question.

The Eye:

Kolya: You said this would work!
Dr McKay: I don't know if you've noticed or not, but I'm an extremely arrogant man who tends to think all his plans will work.

The Defiant One:

Major Sheppard: All right. Let's remember where we parked.

Hot Zone:

Teyla: You have not been practising.
Major Sheppard: Yes, I have.
Teyla: If this were really a fight...
Major Sheppard: If this were really a fight, I would have shot you by now.

Sanctuary:

Dr McKay: Word of caution. The whole Captain Kirk routine is problematic, to say the least; let alone morally dubious.
Major Sheppard: What routine?
Dr McKay: Romancing the alien priestess... very 1967 of you.

Before I Sleep:

Lt Ford: Is time travel even possible?
Dr McKay: According to Einstein's general theory of relativity there's nothing in the laws of physics to prevent it. Extremely difficult to achieve, mind you. You need the technology to manipulate black holes to create wormholes not only through points in space, but time.
Major Sheppard: Not to mention a really nice DeLorean.

The Brotherhood:

Dr Beckett: I can barely make it to the mainland and back without crashing. For the last time, I'm a doctor, not a bloody fighter pilot!

Letters From Pegasus:

Dr McKay: I once caught mono kissing a girl in Algebra Club. Missed an entire month of school. Still, the kiss was, uh, something, so it was, uh, probably worth it. April Bingham -- cute blonde! God -- you see, I love blondes, especially with the, uh, short hair. Mmm. Samantha Carter -- if you're watching, the torch is still burning -- sadly, soon to be extinguished, but, uh... You know, you really should know -- I think you are just... so... well, you're great -- you're really, really great, and, uh, I would go so far as saying you're the hottest scientist I've ever worked with. In fact, there's probably not a night that goes by that I don't, uh, find myself, uh... okay, Ford, let's, let's lose that.

The Gift:

Dr Weir: According to Doctor Zelenka's calculations, we have less than one week before the Wraith arrive. I want options.
Dr McKay: You mean, besides crying ourselves to sleep?

The Siege, part 1:

Dr McKay: This is bad! Very bad! I'm not sure I can fix this.
Dr Grodin: You can fix anything.
Dr McKay: Who told you that?
Dr Grodin: You did, on several occasions.

The Siege, part 2:

Dr McKay: Concentrate on powering up the chair. Nothing else, nothing more, nothing but. Don't start thinking about...
Dr Beckett: Don't tell me what not to start thinking about, or I'll start thinking about it!

Personally, I think they missed the best quotes in The Brotherhood. They so should have used the conversation between John and Rodney when they're trying to figure out the puzzle *g*

Comments

[seiyaharris.livejournal.com]

He really does get all the best lines, doesn't he?

Also, you are very right, the best quote from The Brotherhood is the conv. between Rodney and John *g*

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

I especially love John's "Give me the gun. I'll shoot him myself..."

*g*

[seiyaharris.livejournal.com]

Indeed, it's John at his most irate and flirty lol

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. Because they're surround by Genii, he can't exactly say "You're making me so riled I want to throw you to the ground and fuck you for hours." So he threatens to shoot him instead.

[seiyaharris.livejournal.com]

And Rodney knows he means the sex thing and not the death thing and that makes him even more nervous about possibly sending John to his painful, painful death. Bless him.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! So when they *do* get back to Atlantis they're all "Must fuck now!" and there's much of the tearing off of clothes and the sliding and the thrusting and the slick, slick flesh.

[seiyaharris.livejournal.com]

OH. Slick, slick flesh. Um, yes please. Yes yes. And whimpering and 'Oh God I thought you were gonna die!' and 'I knew it'd be fine, you always fix it' (which would be John, except actually John kinda fixed it but whatever)

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

And Rodney would be so turned on, he won't stop moving. So John has top grab his wrists and pin them above Rodney's head, just to get him to stop. And all Rodney can do is whimper as John bites the back of his neck, all heat and need and submission wrapped up in want

[seiyaharris.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes yes and Rodney tries to get free and John just tightens his grip and smiles at him, slowly, evilly and Rodney is just oncoherent with want. Yes.

(PS. You are a bad influence and I just signed up for sga_santa)

[moxie-brown.livejournal.com]

Ah, he makes me laugh and laugh.

So... where could one find these cards?

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

The cards are one of the sets of chase cards out of the new SGA season 1 trading cards. Most comic places should have the packs of cards in, but for sets you'd most likely have to go to a dealer. Or eBay *g*

[moxie-brown.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I really really shouldn't.

Yes, I will be strong. :)

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Strong is vastly overrated. Personally I go with the 'oooh, shiny!' approach ;-)

Also: lol! at your icon :-D

[workerb.livejournal.com]

Thanks for posting the lines from the cards! I seriously want to watch each one of the scenes now.

Oh, hey, I was just in the middle of a power nap, and... and I'm not wearing any pants.

Yes. No pants good. *g*

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

*g* No pants very good. No pants with John kneeling in front of him, tongue sliding up heated flesh as he sucks Rodney's hard cock into his mouth better ;-)

[xandutch.livejournal.com]

*G* And I'm sure I'm not the only one who has noticed the slashyness of that second one.

About the Brotherhood: they probably figured this would get more ST fans to collect the cards as well. Especially considering the number of references in the remaining quotes.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

But they should go for the hot gay subtext over ST any day of the week ;-)
