And once I've attracted their attention, what am I supposed to say?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*hadn't thought of that* Oh um...I suppose you could follow it with "kel sha" if you wanted to say hello or greetings...or "tal'mac Alan Shore"...
I usually have to follow it with "kree'ta" myself...to get someone to quit messing with something they're not supposed to.

[alan_shore]

Like what, your equipment?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

Er...sometimes. I really couldn't elaborate more...some of the stuff I'm involved in is classified.

[alan_shore]

Oh, come on. I'm in the Coast Guard. Tell me, would the government entrust the safety of its navigable waters to someone whose loyalty was in doubt?

*facepalm* that icon is making the mun giggle

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*eyebrow raise*

...well you are a lawyer. Your loyalty is to your client, whoever they may be at the time.

ahahaha, have you seen the *Batman* one?

[alan_shore]

...

Fine. Suit yourself.

Icon or episode, though the answer is no to both...I've not seen any Boston Legal

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

...for that matter, how does a lawyer end up in the Coast Guard? That seems like an odd mix.

[alan_shore]

Gosh, I'd love to tell you, but I'm afraid that information is classified.

ooc: Here you are! And there are plenty more ridiculous costumes where that came from.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*rueful smile* Yeah, guess I deserved that. Never mind then.


ooc: ahhhh! ok that's just...yikes. *covers Daniel's eyes*

[alan_shore]

*sighs* We--that is, my friend Denny and I--originally intended to join the National Guard, but were thwarted by their ill-considered and discriminatory recruitment practices.

ooc: Ahahahaha! I guess I'll spare you from the scarier pictures.

For now.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

Discriminatory? Not healthy enough or something?


ooc: Yeah, something I thought I'd never seen Spader wear. :) I have to ask...why? Why all the costumes? Were they all in one episode?

[alan_shore]

Now why would you immediately leap to that conclusion.


ooc: Well, a lot of them were for Halloween (the show ran for five years--that's a lot of Halloween eps), and some of the others had to do with Alan's flair for the dramatic/need for attention/desire to cause trouble.

But yes, one does get the sense that the writers just like dressing Spader (and Shatner) in absurd attire.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

...oh no! No, I didn't mean...I mean...*now he's embarassed*

I mean, I work with the military a lot and that was the only thing I could think of that they would be sticklers about.

ooc: lol, well writers got to have some fun.

[alan_shore]

*comes perilously close to smiling before recovering his sense of righteous indignation* We were deemed too old to enlist.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

What? You're kidding? How old is too...no wait *stops himself* I could get into all kinds of trouble with that question too.
I've got to start listening when I talk...

[alan_shore]

I'm 46; as a matter of policy, anyone over the age of 35 is thanked a half-dozen times and shown the door.

*surreptitiously looks Daniel up and down* How old are you?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...34. Guess I have only one more year. *chuckles*

[alan_shore]

Just don't tell them I sent you.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

Yeah...don't think I'd want to join the military. I get enough of that just being a...er....consultant.

[alan_shore]

*raises an eyebrow* Quite. What branch did you say you were affiliated with?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

I didn't say....sort of a mix really, usually it's the Air Force.

[alan_shore]

What's the Air Force doing with an expert in dead languages? Or rather, what are you doing with them?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

OOC: Hypothetically :) how do you think Alan would react if he found out about the Stargate program?

ooc

[alan_shore]

Hoo boy. I think initially he'd attempt to rationalize it away--he'd assume Daniel was joking, and when it became clear Daniel was serious, Alan'd probably wonder whether he wasn't a slightly deranged conspiracy theorist/paranoid schizophrenic (which would by no means diminish his affection for Daniel).

If he were presented with evidence of the program's existence (and/or extraterrestrial life?)...hahahahaha, he'd probably get all outraged at the government for hiding it from the public and start asking annoying logistical questions (how is this funded? who directs it? etc.). And if he didn't like the answers he'd probably want to take some sort of legal action.

In other words, he would CAUSE A WHOLE LOT OF TROUBLE.
