Stressful day.

Whoever tells me the best joke, or links me to the funniest picture, or cheers me up most effectively by whatever method you can find, wins . . . something I'll figure out later.

Judge's decisions are final.

*laughs* I somehow can't imagine you having a torrid affair with an alien.

And even in our...more orthodox organization it has been known to happen.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

No, no . . . even one with sparkly blue tentacles.

Have you?

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

Um...define "alien."

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

Someone who was not born on Earth.

And you have to answer because asking that question means you're looking for a way not to.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

...yes.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

Did it have sparkly blue tentacles?

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

No. They were both indistinguishable from humans born on Earth.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

. . . two?

Well. I had not expected that.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

Not at the same time.

But you expected at least one?

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

I don't know what I expected. Yeah, at least one, I suppose. I mean, you're out there, and there's opportunity, and . . . I suppose anyone would get curious about the possibilities.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

You make it sound like an experiment or something.

Though to be fair, I suppose it was with the one...oh, hell, this is just vague and confusing. It was Ronon. I don't want you thinking I make a habit of sleeping with random people I meet off-world.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

It's a fault of my big brain. *pokes you hopefully for a smile*

Ronan . . . Oh. The dangerous bloke while you were a girl? Wow.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

I think your big brain is sexy. *smiles*

Yeah, him. He was kind of an experiment, I guess. Do you want to know about the other one, or are you a little freaked out that your boyfriend had sex with aliens?

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

My big brain finds you sexy too.

I'm not freaked out. Tell me about the other one.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

*preens*

The other one was Teyla. I've mentioned Teyla, right?

[ooc: I've only just realized that Lorne has slept with both Atlantis' resident aliens. How clueless does that make me?]

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

*kisses your forehead*

I think you have a time or two.

[ooc: HEE.

And Ianto is fighting very hard not saying, Dude, I've slept with Jack. Nothing freaks me out anymore.]

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

*grins*

Well, there you have it then. My torrid affairs with aliens. God, that seems weird to say. I don't usually think of them as aliens.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

*kisses your grin*

You've said that they're human--that where you are is basically an experiment, yeah? Somebody seeded the worlds with humans? It's not that unbelievable, really.

The universe is vast. Anything is possible.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

*wraps my arms around you and kisses you back*

I don't think it's weird that I've slept with aliens (well, I sort of do). I just think it's weird that Ronon and Teyla are aliens.

Because I've met aliens. Like Star Trek sort of aliens. I've also met a lot of humans who just happened to be born on another planet.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

*tucks my head under your chin*

I suppose it's just more obvious with the aliens we meet that they're actually alien, you know, other.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

*kisses the top of your head*

If all the aliens we met were human, I might not feel so weird about calling Ronon and Teyla aliens, but some of them are, well, other. And that makes the ones that are human seem so normal in comparison that I forget sometimes how different they are.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

*kisses your neck*

That's mostly a matter of culture, though, isn't it? Not biology.

[rockscientist.livejournal.com]

[Private to Ianto]

*runs my fingers up and down your arm*

Mostly, yeah. Biology is nearly identical.

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

[Private to Lorne]

*cups your cheek in my hand*

So that's a different kind of alien. Not like, for example, a glowing squid-like being who eats hearts, or a gold-dust-appearing creature who's addicted to orgasms.

Yours actually sounds more interesting.
