Escapade Panel Brainstorming

[wickedwords]

So, I want an SGA panel so we have an hour to talk amongst ourselves. My thoughts are pretty limited, though, and right now, all I have is

John Sheppard: Psychokiller or Pretty, Pretty Princess?

And no description beyond that. I'm going to think about it as I work out this afternoon, but I am up for any other suggestions you might have.

Laughing, laughing now.

John Sheppard: Psychokiller or Pretty, Pretty Princess?

This so needs to be in an icon!

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

I would love to have that icon myself. *g*

I just realized why this sounded vaguely... well, not exactly familiar. See, this ties in with anime somehow. I heard they have florist ninjas in anime, I swear. So John can be Silent Death *and* a Pretty, Pretty Princess. Cus really, he so is.

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

Florist Ninja. ::dies:: Yes, John would absolutely be one of those.

[darthhellokitty.livejournal.com]

Why must he be one or the other? Isn't it the most fun when they're BOTH?

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

I think it's cool that we can have him as either characterization and the story can work. I'm not too sure about the combined thing, though, where he's Princess Psychokiller. Though that does sound like an anime title, doesn't it?

*dies* I think I might have to suggest that as a topic for the MediaWest panels, because that is just beyond the best panel topic EVER. I don't normally do panels, but I'd so go to that one =D

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

LOL! Oh, it's the description that's hard. Just creating the titles is a ton of fun.

[corinna-5.livejournal.com]

And no description beyond that.

At that point, does anything else really need to be said?

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

Nope. That pretty much does it for me. *g*

qu'est que c'est

I love the description...and it really is a metonymic description of a much more complex theoretical discusion about fandom's need to often 3 point characterize towards archetypes etc.

Personally, I love them both...pretty princess buying curtains and interior decorator and murdering machine, soulless clone, PTSD-ridden soldier...

Oh, thank god! I can cannibalize this for the description. And I am totally with you on the psychokiller princess thing. It's a good look on him.

[copracat]

My only problem with that is it presumes you can't be a Psychokiller AND a Pretty, Pretty Princess.

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

True! And John is both. He is the dorkiest princess killing machine ever.

[ltlj.livejournal.com]

That's a great title!

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

I think you're looking for the word AND, not OR. Definitely would go to this panel, btw.

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

Gosh, think of all the stories you could have if you did combine them. 'Designed for Death', 'A Princess, A Pony, and A P90', 'Everybody Run! The Homecoming Princess has a gun!"

Oh, wait. I think that last one's been done.

[tonicollins.livejournal.com]

'A Princess, A Pony, and A P90' You know, I'd almost swear that I've read this.

[emyrys.livejournal.com]

Sigh. Just when I thought I'd gotten over not being able to go to Escapade this year..... :-(

I wish I could come to this panel!! Have fun!!

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

I will miss you. I'm not sure who all is coming, but I'm hoping it'll be fun.

[workerb.livejournal.com]

I'll echo what other have said here. Why can't he be both? Killer Pretty Princess John sounds good to me. :) That can be another option up for discussion.

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

LOL! That sounds great. The more options, the better.

John Sheppard: Psychokiller or Pretty, Pretty Princess?

Dies. This says it ALL, though, right????

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

John is like a Ninja Princess or something. He can be both an interior decorator, and souless killing machine.

And that just makes me so gosh-darn happy!

[melagan.livejournal.com]

I have sympathy for your dilemma but really, I just want to use the icon /g/

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

::dies:: Oh, that is so good. Him...with the hand! And have you seen his sparkling-gold curtains from the tao of rodney? Such a princess.
