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?

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.

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.

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.

lol...Oooo, mun is tempted to try for a crossover verse like that...though Daniel wouldn't so willingly give up evidence like that, he'd be more trying to keep it under wraps.
And if the SGC found out, oh boy...Alan would probably be in the brig till they figured out what to do with him....which might involve dumping him on a planet far far away if they got really desperate.

First of all, I'd totally be up for that. (Despite knowing next to nothing about the Stargate 'verse.)

Second of all, if Daniel waited until he and Alan were friends (or at least on their way to becoming friends) and then swore him to secrecy before telling him, Alan would probably not attempt to, you know, tell the whole world about the Stargate program. (Although he would still doubt Daniel's mental health.)

And finally...

which might involve dumping him on a planet far far away if they got really desperate.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh, he would be so profoundly miserable.

Hmmmmm....now you've got the plot bunnies hopping around....and that would probably work out because I know nothing about Boston Legal other than it's about lawyers and all I know about lawyers is from Law and Order.

The good thing about sci-fi is that if you want a story to go a certain way, there's a million and one ways to do it. (i.e. bringing a character back from the dead)
So another way to do it would be for Alan to accidentally just end up in Stargate Command or in a situation with aliens on earth or something...Ohhh there's also the spaceship Daedalus that is sometimes in orbit around the planet that the SGC owns now. And they do have the ability to beam one person from one place to another, just like on Star Trek.

Ideas:
1. Become friends, sworn to secrecy
2. Come across sgc team dealing with an alien threat, which could be any number of things suspicious
3. Accidentally ends up in SGC during some sort of emergency so they can't send him back right away

Thoughts? Other ideas? Stargate Command is in Colorado btw, officially the Norad project (which I think really exists) and it's hidden like 10 floors underground under that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stargate_Command#Stargate_Command

Hehe, poor Alan.

Boston Legal...I'm not even sure I can explain it. It's like the typical legal drama mixed with a heaping helping of crack. Alan originated on The Practice, though, so his world does bear some resemblance to reality.

I'm cool with any of those scenarios--although the thing about 1 is that it'd probably take some time for them to gain each other's trust (which is fine with me if it's fine with you). And 3 would be fun because Alan'd get a chance to see Daniel in action.

hehe well the crack part of that would help Alan's tolerance to alien stuff I'm sure. Or maybe the fact that he works with Captain Kirk would take care of that. :D

I like scenario 3 too, scenario 1 would take too long even if it is a good one. Ok, so an emergency that keeps Alan stuck in the SGC...and it has to get him in as well...

Ok, idea.
Alan catches the team like suspicously going down an alley or something after an alien who's got something of theirs, a tablet or artefact or something. Alien could either hide the artefact and alan could find it or he could take alan hostage and activate it on him. Either way, whatever it is could be attached to Alan so they would have to take him back to the SGC to get it off. We'd have to work out the details as to what exactly it is or what it does/is going to do to him in the way of symptoms and such. They could even have to bring him on a mission because he has to be in a certain place to get it off or be rid of it, etc.

Nutter idea...and why didn't I think of this before? :) What if they get mistaken for each other at their respective places of work?

i.e.
Daniel is at the courthouse to pay a traffic ticket or something minor, the SGC sends a car to pick him up quick for some emergency, and the soldiers accidentally pick up Alan instead. Alan tries to go along with it till he gets caught, which would probably be whenever Daniel shows up.
Also vice versa, Daniel could get caught up in the lawyer part of it too even if he doesn't want to. He's good at getting into trouble even though he's protesting against it.

The best way to run that story would be if one part was running on one journal and the other was running on the other. I'd be everyone at the SGC and you'd have to be posting as everyone out of Boston Legal.

So that's option #4 to the list. :)

Hmmm...although that sounds awesome, I don't think they look enough alike (there's the glasses, the hair, the small matter of Alan being, oh, 50 pounds heavier than Daniel) to fool anybody who knows either of them for a second.

But we could (maybe?) do something where the people at the SGC think Alan is Daniel from the future (that happens on the show, right? Alternate universes and so forth?). And I suppose Daniel could pass himself off as Alan's cousin or younger brother (though why he'd want to, I'm not sure).

Of course, we'd still have to figure out a reason for Alan to be in Colorado and Daniel to be in Boston.
