IM Conversation turned... Fic?

[skroberts]

After my not-so-great day yesterday, stoopbeck helped cheer me up. How? Talking about a certain someone with pink hair!


Pretty in Pink

Sarah: *randomly thinks of Sheppard with pink hair*
Alex: I almost wish he would dye it. Just for the look Roadie'd have on her face.
Sarah: And it's kinda sexy. If it were a really BRIGHT pink.
Alex: Heck. Yeah.
Alex: Hehe. It'd be funny if someone dyed it in his sleep. But he'd have to be sleeping pretty darn hard.
Sarah: Eh, but he's military... he's probably a light sleeper.
Sarah: But it would be funny. :D
Alex: It so would.
Alex: Well, if they got Carson in on it...
Alex: He's probably got lots of stuff that would make John very very sleepy...
Sarah: Like QVC...
Alex: Hehe.
Alex: And John wakes up the next morning, and goes to a staff meeting, unsuspecting...
Sarah: Because why would he need to look in a mirror? It looks the same whether he brushes it or just lets it be right out of bed...
Alex: Exactly! And while he's on his way, he hears all the people around him giggling, but he ignores it, figuring he just has crazy bed hair or something...
Sarah: Or they are fangirls...
Alex: Hehe. Definitely fangirls then. And as the door opens, everyone in the meeting [he's a few seconds late] looks at him... identical looks of shock frozen on their faces...
Sarah: Sheppard: "What?!"
Alex: Weir: "Umm. Major. Good... morning."
Sarah: Sheppard, whispering to McKay: "Do I have something in my teeth?"
Sarah: McKay: "Not... in your teeth..."
Alex: (Ford loses it and bolts for the door.)
Sarah: (...to get his video camera)
Alex: Sheppard: "What's wrong with him?"
Sarah: Carson: "Maybeh he saw a wee spider?"
Alex: Meanwhile, Ford runs into Zelenka. Ford, slightly out of breath: "Major... pink... gotta see it... meeting" Zelenka decides to head on over, just in case something's up.
Alex: Meanwhile, Teyla's unable to look away. She just keeps staring. And staring.
Alex: Carson: "Oh, aye, most likely a spider."
Sarah: Zelenka walks in: "Does anyone know what is wrong with Lt. Ford? He just ran into me and... Hospodin, jeden ohromný karafiát ježek! {Lord, a monstrous pink hedgehog!}"
Alex: Sheppard by this time is getting more and more worried. He goes to mess with his hair, just in case there does happen to be a wee spider anywhere near his head. As he brushes against his bangs with his hand, Rodney makes a *snerk* sound.
Sarah: Sheppard: "Are you all on the special crack?!"
Sarah: Weir: "Um, Major. Have you looked in the mirror this morning?"
Sarah: Sheppard: "Uh, no. I was late, so I hurried... why?!"
Alex: Carson: "Oh, no reason. So... on with the meeting now, right?"
Alex: Just then, Ford rushes in, camera on, with about half the science department behind him. "Am I too late? Did I miss it?"
Sarah: Sheppard: "No, we're about to start the meeting. And what's with the camera and scientists?! It doesn't take that many people to kill a spider. Geez, I though I was the only one with a serious bug phobia..."
Sarah: (the fangirls/scientist giggle-snort the whole time)
Alex: Carson: "Well, you know, John, this is a verrah big spider."
Alex: Zelenka: *snorts*
Sarah: Sheppard: They really are on the special crack!
Alex: Ford: "Oh, yes, sir, they are. Now could you turn a little to the right?"
Sarah: Sheppard was thinking that, not saying that. He freaks out that Ford is now a mind-reader!
Alex: [Oops.]
Sarah: Ford, at Shep's dismayed face: "I was talking about the spiders, sir. There are two of them!"
Alex: Carson: "Two great big ones!"
Sarah: Sheppard: "Come on, guys, are we going to have a meeting or are we going to flail around about spiders?!"
Alex: Weir: (clearing her throat) "All right then. To business. Teyla? How do the Athosians on the mainland feel about what's been happening recently?"
Alex: Teyla: "But how would they know about--" (she is kicked under the table) "...the Wraith?'
Sarah: McKay: "They just do. I'm sure they're... pink in the face about it all."
Alex: Carson: "In fact, I bet they're tickled pink that they have our support."
Sarah: *Sheppard narrows eyes at them*
Alex: *Ford continues filming*
Alex: Zelenka: "In fact, they might just be pink with envy when they find out..."
Alex: Rodney whispers "Green. Green with envy."
Alex: Zelenka: "But it is not green."
Sarah: Sheppard: "Huh?"
Alex: Carson: "He's Czech, you know."
Sarah: Sheppard: *stands up* "All right. Either someone put something in your muffins this morning or there's a joke I'm not in on. Spill it."
Sarah: *pssst to Alex... I have a fun ending*
Alex: *waits to see fun ending!*
Sarah: Weir: "Major, look in the mirror. Please."
Sarah: Ford whips one out, because he 'just so happens to have one.'
Alex: (but of course.)
Sarah: Sheppard: *looks*
Sarah: Sheppard: "Er... I look like... me."
Sarah: They all exchange glances.
Sarah: McKay: "Are you sure there's nothing... different about you?"
Alex: [Hee heee!]
Sarah: Sheppard: "Not that I can see... What am I supposed to be seeing?!"
Sarah: Teyla: "You hair. Is it not... different?"
Sarah: Sheppard: "Different how?"
Sarah: Sheppard: *baby seal face*
Alex: *giggle-snort*
Sarah: Everyone exchanges more glances.
Sarah: Carson: "Look again... Are ya sure ya canna see anything different?"
Sarah: Weir: "About the color?"
Sarah: Sheppard, distressed, looks again: "It looks... brown, like it always does!"
Sarah: Sheppard: "Now what's going on?!"
Alex: *snicker*
Sarah: McKay: "For Pete's sake, Major, you can't possibly NOT see it!"
Sarah: Sheppard: "See. WHAT?!"
Sarah: McKay: "PINK! You're hair is pink, for the love of God!"
Alex: *SNERK*
Sarah: Sheppard: *looks again quickly*
Sarah: Sheppard: "No it's not!"
Sarah: McKay: *exacerbated*
Sarah: Weir: "You really don't see it?"
Sarah: Sheppard: *tired of it all* "I see brown! Brown, brown, BROWN!"
Sarah: Carson: "Are you sure?!"
Sarah: Sheppard: "Of course I'm... well... not completely."
Sarah: McKay: "Huh?!"
Sarah: Sheppard: *forlorned look*
Sarah: Sheppard: "I... assume it's brown... I'm not really sure."
Sarah: Sheppard: *looks to floor*
Alex: [Aww.]
Sarah: Sheppard: "I've... been color-blind since I was born."
Alex: [EVEN MORE awww]
Sarah: Everyone else feels really bad.
Sarah: Most of the scientists have scurried away.
Sarah: Ford has lowered the camera.
Sarah: Carson: "Really? We did na know..."
Sarah: Sheppard: "Yeah, well..." *sigh*
Sarah: McKay: *looks at table, avoiding Sheppard's gaze*
Sarah: Sheppard: "Look, Doctor Weir, could this meeting wait? I'm suddenly not up to talking about creepy green people who suck your life out through their hands..."
Alex: *snicker!*
Sarah: Weir: "I think we can hold this off until later today..."
Sarah: Sheppard: *darts eyes around the room*
Sarah: Sheppard: *pushes passed Ford, who has turned off camera*
Sarah: McKay: "Well. That became not fun rather quickly."
Alex: (Hee!)
Sarah: Teyla: "What is the 'color-blind' that Major Sheppard spoke of?"
Sarah: Carson: "He canna see colors, Teyla. It comes in various degrees, but... wait."
Alex: *snicker*
Sarah: Carson: "Did he say 'creepy green people'?"
Sarah: They all exchange glances, because they're really good at that by this time.
Alex: (Heck yeah, they've gotten lots of practice)
Sarah: McKay: *bolts from chair to go after Sheppard*
Alex: *snerk*
Sarah: Making it out to the hallway, he sees a flash of pink at the end of the corridor.
Sarah: McKay: "Major!"
Sarah: Sheppard: *runs away*
Alex: (HEE!)
Sarah: McKay: "HEY! You-!!"
Sarah: McKay: *goes back to conference room*
Sarah: McKay: "I think we've been had..."
Sarah: Sheppard, somewhere: *laughing his butt off*

Backstory...

Alex: Awww.... I thought Carson dyed it.
Sarah: It could have been anyone. Okay, it was Carson and McKay.
Alex: Hehe. Okay.
Alex: That'll work.
Sarah: But Zelenka overheard them and warned Sheppard. The Shep just played along until... ;))
Alex: That makes it even better!


We're easily amused. Deal with it. :P

LOL

And look, it can turn green with envy, too. He has magical hair.



And I still kinda like the pink Sheppard hair. I hate that man and his hair and what you and Alex and Shroomy are doing to me with it.

[tehshroom.livejournal.com]

Heee, green with envy...He looks much better in pink.

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

Yes, he does. And that worries me. A lot.

*licks you*

[tehshroom.livejournal.com]

Oh, and you know you can't resist the Shep. Buwahahahaa

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

I so can. *hates you*

No, really. I think it is all Joe and not John.

[tehshroom.livejournal.com]

Hehe, yeah. Joe is the man behind John ;)

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

He is. But it is different. Usually I like the character more than the actor. But I think I like Joe more than John. We will see how much I'll like him once the show goes on and whether or not you corruppted me over the break.

[tehshroom.livejournal.com]

8 days...hopefully, the torrent will be uploaded in little time. *bouncy bouncy*

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I hope so, too. It takes almost a day for The Inside.

[skroberts]

Joe = happy place.

[skroberts]

Magical hair! *giggle-snort*

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

It is like one of those magical rings that change color according to temperature your mood. Hee, mood hair. It could come in handy sometimes, when you can't really tell if someone is already in a bad mood or not and you are not sure you can bother them with stuff or should leave them alone.

[skroberts]

We all need mood hair...

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

That would be fun. I'd have to try not to be in a pink mood too often, though.

[stoopbeck.livejournal.com]

Heheheee! I love you.

I wish we all had mood hair. How much would that rock?

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

I love you, too.

And I am not that sure how much it would rock. How often would people get pink hair?

[stoopbeck.livejournal.com]

*sigh* Not often enough, unfortunately. Unless... what mood would a pink mood be?

[roadrunner1896.livejournal.com]

I have no idea. A bad mood. Like hateful. Or very angry. Or something. Maybe scared. Pink scares me.
