It's raining otters from the sky!

Text!fic, yay!

From ngaio:

John was wandering around the lab fiddling with things and pissing Rodney off. "What's this?" John asked, for what felt like the 40th time.

"It's a screwdriver."

"It doesn't look like a screwdriver to me," replied John. "How does it work?"

Rodney sighed a deep 'patient' sigh, "It's sonic."

From temaris:

In his more generous moments he couldn't help but sympathise with Hermiod. After all, McKay *was* pretty irresistible in a faintly - deeply - annoying sort of way. Sometimes he almost felt like patting the little grey fella on the back and telling him that even if he caught McKay he'd probably regret it.

But mostly he planned increasingly far-fetched and gory ways how to quietly and untraceably remove an Asgard from this plane of existence -- or any other. Maybe he could talk Rodney into building him a small nuclear bomb. Something big enough to strap a 5 ft alien on without losing too much aerodynamic flow...

From temaris:

Rodney waited silently. The trick, so John claimed, of successful hunting was not to find your prey but to find somewhere to wait where your prey would come to you. And then to take advantage of surprise. He settled back in his chair and started work again. It wasn't about hiding. Hiding defeated the purpose. It might take time, but he was in no hurry. Hours later there was a stir of movement in the otherwise empty lab. And Rodney smiled.

So...does your cellphone service have an email address or a web portal one could use to send text messages to you from, say, another country. *eg* Because if it does, you could always email me that information.

You know, I seem to remember that if Claire enabled it, we could send her text messages from the LJ website. It might just be for US users though. Hmm.

Ooh. Do you have links, because I scanned the FAQ but couldn't find anything like that in it.

Aha! Well both our networks are on there. I'll have a play around tomorrow :-D

Apparently (thanks to Tem pointing this out *g*) the network I'm on allows LJ to send text messages.

Also, I can send and receive from Tunisia by just using the mobile number, but I'm not sure about the states. I'll have a play around tomorrow :-D

And the text!fic becomes international!

[temaris.livejournal.com]

It's only 20pence to text internationally anywhere for me -- as opposed to 10pence, and I can;'t imagine your network will be that much different, what with competition and all, so actually, international text porn seems entirely feasible.

PS, I still hate you.

*koff*

I'm still waiting for information on how to text you porn. *g*

I've been trying. But the wesite of my mobile network is drivig me insane. It won't let me register because it says I already have a username, whch I don't! And it says 'If you've forgotten your password and username, fill in the online form' - and then doesn't tell you where it is!

*pulls out hair*
