This has become the meme that would not die. Or, y'know, the one I can't resist.

Comment and I'll pick seven of your icons, and then you will explain why you love/are using the icon (who doesn't love talking about their icons, seriously) and then post your explanation/this meme in your journal for other people to squee about their icons.

- Mmm...Lorne. I love Lorne because of his snarkiness and because he loves to pick on Rodney. And this was his first episode, and there was much snark and a whole, whole lot of picking on Rodney. I like to think this is his default facial expression when he's around Rodney.


- I love that, while Rodney is so irrascible, David Hewlett is just a big ol' goofy teddy bear. And sometimes, you just need an icon that says "Awesome".


- Radek's just a huge geek. He doesn't even hide it. He just is. The boy plays Prime/Not Prime for fun.


- Again, cute, dorky Radek. With bonus Star Wars. How could it be better? And Radek's dorkiness is utterly irresistable.


- Hee. Quote from Harry Potter. I know it's not at all in character for these two, but the looks on their faces here are just so...mischevious. Love that.


- You know, I write primarily in Atlantis, but SG-1 was my first love. This pic is from Moebius, at the end of season 7, when they thought it was going to be the end, but then it wasn't. And the text is from...well, White and Nerdy by Weird Al. I wish I had a better handle on the characters from SG-1. I would totally write them more.


- Oh, this is one of my favorites. I play Lorne in an RP over at [livejournal.com profile] theinternetcafe, and he met Ianto from Torchwood there, and, well...things happened. And they fit so very well together. So [livejournal.com profile] misslucyjane made this lovely manip and icon of them, and I use it for my Beatles 'verse stories.



So there you have it. Seven icons explained.

7 icon's wonderfully explained! Lorne/Ianto I blame you for my new found love of that pair!

Thank you muchly.

Lorne/Ianto is contagious. I mean, first you think "Really?" and then you come to realize that, yeah, it kinda works.

Plus, it's totally pretty. Now we just have to poke more people into writing it. I've yet to see anyone else tackle it. (Though [livejournal.com profile] i_files is supposed to become Lorne/Ianto eventually. It's just not there yet.)

We do need to poke more people into writing it!
