Shades of Teyla...

[neevebrody.livejournal.com]

I wanted to share this adorable video of Rachel Luttrell promoting her new CD, and to say that I wish the show had explored Teyla's humorous side - because you know she must have had a wicked sense of humor. I bet after being around Rodney McKay for five years, she could go toe to toe with him in a snarkfest. About the closest we ever got to humor from Teyla was her expressive eyes - eyerolls, brow arches... but it was something. Aren't there stories where the Team is off world and Teyla gets a little tipsy, not enough to get into trouble, but enough to be amusing? Or movie night turned into a drinking game when an actor says the same thing over and over. If there isn't, there should be.

It's Friday and I'm missing my show and thinking of all the tales Atlantis had yet to tell.

I just saw that vid, thought it was cute and a brilliant way to promote her album :).


My SGA torch is still burning too by the way ;).

OMG, I was wondering when this would be released. And you're right, she is freaking adorable in this. Oh, to have a TARDIS, be able to go back to S1 and have the writers back better use of Rachel.

Her eyes when she keeps cutting them at camera!

*off to check out her CD*

Oh that is adorable! I love her dry wit! And the eyeroll, she has a blackbelt in it. LOL!

I agree, I'd love to see more Teyla fic exploring her character; there are some great ones out there, but as you say: so many more stories to tell!

That? Is just adorable!! Yay Rachel!

I have read quite a few fics where Teyla has a wonderful sense of humor, but I'm not sure if I've read any where she's had a bit too much to drink. Hmmmmm.

*ponders*

Aw! That makes me miss the show so much! I mean, more than I already do. Such an adorable vid. :D

I read this hilarious SGA Santa story from last year where Woolsey got dosed with silly juice and bugged Teyla to dance with him (and Rodney found out John was a clingy drunk). It was really cute and funny.

Oh, on topic: I really like the fics where she gets annoyed with the others. I think that's just hilarious.
