Five Toys Toby Would Buy for the Twins
1. The Best of Psychology fingerpuppets (He keeps them away from Jung for a good long while though. Freud's not too bad, but Jung!!!)
2. A replica of the space shuttle. Huck breaks off the wheels and Molly likes driving it along the ground, but it's sort of a loop, a family connection and when he watches them, he always knows he's done the right thing.
3. A baseball and a glove for each of them. Later, when he figures out if they're southpaws or regular, he'll get 'em bats. But it doesn't hurt to learn to catch right.
4. A water table, because it's about sharing, but it's also about creating maximum havoc. Both of those are concepts that he can get behind. But it stays at Andie's.
5. He buys them both their first bikes a year before they're ready because all of a sudden he realizes that they will, someday, want to ride off on their own, and he wants to be there when they do, holding onto the bar at the back and keeping them steady until they find their centers. He's pretty sure Molly won't even need training wheels.

Five Things Cameron Mitchell Would One Day Tell House
1. "She said it wan't transmitted through sex!"
2. "Um, when we brought him in here, he wasn't that color. You think that's important?"
3. "Our doctors tend to have a short shelf life? Wanna come work for the SGC?"
4. "What, you've never brought anyone back from the dead? What kind of doctor are you?"
5. "Wait, wait, can you say, 'Dammit, Mitchell, I'm a doctor, not an anthropologist.' It'll sound better.
Then Mona asked for
Five Things Vala Just Really, Really Couldn't Help But Tell
a) one character from House, M.D.
b) one characters from Farscape
c) one character from Buffy
d) one character from Alias
and
e) one character from The West Wing
1. To House himself, "You'd do a lot better if you left cranky and bitter at home. No one likes a curmudgeon. Oh, and here's how to make sure that you win your bets. Cheat!"
2. To Aeryn, "Darling, you really are that hot. But I could do wonders for your hair. Oh, and by the way, love the coat."
3. To Giles, "The sexy librarian thing is so working for you." or to Anya, "No man is worth that. And there are a million of them out there."
4. To Sydney, "Oh my god, you... you're really crying? On purpose? Not to... on purpose? Does that work?" and to Jack, "You can find me in Colorado. Here's my cell, okay, it's not actually my cell number but Daniel won't mind taking a message for me. You bring the champagne and I'll bring the mostly naked. Or, you know, vice versa. Feel free to leave details in your message."
5. To Bartlett, "So, if you'd just give me one of those green card thingies, I could both help save the world and get a tax right off on my new jacket. Because you have to have the proper clothing for these sorts of things. And really, it wouldn't be all that complicated to give me more of those little gold stars, right? I'd be a fabulous General. Stylish, too."
(Hee - it's Vala, the first go around was all about her. I'll work on inappropriate but truthful:)

Five Things Teal'c Would Do in the Farscapeverse
1. Get together with D'Argo and listen to his KISS boxset. When they were done, he'd introduce D'Argo to the wonder that was Freddie Mercury. They would then run through Moya singing, "We are the champions." and doing drunken warrior karaoke to "Bohemian Rhapsody."
2. Watch all of the Buffy boxsets that Crichton brought back from Earth, and then proceed to help Chiana learn how to stake vampires. Because so far, there haven't been any vampires in space, but Teal'c watched all 6 seasons plus Angel, so he feels well versed.
3. Compare meditation styles with Zhaan, and then decide that Kel-No-Rem really could be done better in the nude. With almond body oil.
4. Lock Stark in the crazy closet. He doesn't owe him life, limb or sanity. He wouldn't feel bad about the closet. And Aeryn would be grateful and would fly him around in her prowler, because to her, that's still the coolest thing in the universe, which Teal'c would totally get, even if, like D'Argo, he sort of had to hunch over like he did when Vala stole the Mini Cooper and they went joy riding.
5. Bond with Aeryn. They'd sit in the corner and watch everyone and she'd drink raslak, and he'd have some nice, potent tea and they'd snark at the others with completely straight faces and high five each other under the table.

Five DVDs that Cameron Might Be Surprised to Find Out that Teal'c Owns
1. "The Big Lebowski" Teal'c doesn't see himself as a California boy, but he likes the bowling. Sometimes, he stands in front of the mirror and makes the John Turturo face, and says, "Nobody fucks with the Jesus."
2. "Fantasia." But he never watches The Sorcerer's Apprentice. O'Neill bought him the soundtrack on CD and he likes to watch Night on Bald Mountain when it storms during the summer in Colorado. He likes both the irony and the symmetry. The soundtrack is also on his iPod and sometimes he'll stand behind the guys in the gateroom and make directing motions in his head to the same tempo.
3. "Lilo and Stitch", which he's appreciated much, much more since they acquired Vala. Although, he no longer wants to trade her in for a puppy.
4. "Behind the Green Door." Cam was less surprised about the porn, then the vintage flavor. Teal'c shrugged. "Deep Throat has become cliche."
5. "Outland" - Because even as the baddest (as in Shaft baddest) Jaffa in the 'verse, you still recognize cool space cowboys when you see them. And he'd someday like to talk to Sean Connery about his career. Teal'c thinks if the saving the world thing doesn't work out, he might like to try Hollywood.

Five Things Sam Could Say to Cameron, But Probably Won't
1. "I could kill you with my brain." But really, she thinks that about all of them. But these days, Cam brings it out the hardest. It's a sign of affection, she's pretty sure.
2. "Most men who look like you don't work that hard at doing things right. But I'm glad you do. Now just a little to the left."
3. "I'm glad you're here. Even if I'm pretty sure you can't save the world."
4. "We both know that I'm the one in charge."
5. "You aren't a substitute for Jack. But I don't know, yet, what that means. And none of the rest of us do either."
And bonus:
"Yes, your ass really does look that good in those pants. Who knew? Well I knew, and Teal'c knew, and Vala knew because she's been tipping off the ladies in the mess when you're likely to be wearing black in exchange for a dollar, or sometimes brownies. Teal'c made her stop, but now he seems to get an awful lot of free brownies."

Five ways in which SG1 break Cameron Mitchell's heart
1. There's this thing that Sam does with her mouth, when she's watching him at briefings. She pulls a frown, just slightly, like she expects him to say something different, some other words, or some other cadence. He wants to be a hero, but some days, he'd like to just measure up.
2. When they win, finally, and at cost, there's nothing left but fatigue. There isn't joy, because SG-1 lost joy about the fifth go around, the tenth false hope, at the best, it's relief. At the worst, Jackson and Teal'c and Sam kind of look at each other with this weary exhuastion, and leave him to hold Vala's hand while she contemplates what she should do next. All of a sudden, he hopes she doesn't leave him alone here, with only his team.
3. They say, without saying it, that if Jack were there, none of this would have happened. Until one day, Teal'c tells him that if he'd been O'Neill, it just would have been a different flavor of SNAFU. Mitchell rubs his eyes, tells Teal'c his allergies are a bitch. Teal'c just nods.
4. When they stay overnight on a planet, deciding that it's not worth it to go back through the gate, everyone already knows what order to take watch. Eventually, they even let Vala have a turn, which is a mixed blessing because she bitches about it the whole next day, complaining she needs her beauty sleep, but the following night, she's up before it's her turn, and she sits by Cam for nearly an hour, her thigh pressed to his, murmuring funny, dirty stories to him to keep him awake. When he turns in, he kisses her cheek on impulse, doesn't yelp when she pats him on the ass. He didn't know you could feel this way about watching someone change.
5. On his birthday, his second full year in command, when they're all pretty sure they're going to die at the hands of the Orii, and no one's got anything better to offer than a mystical weapon that probably doesn't exist, they take him out for Mexican food and he gets mildly sauced on margaritas and kisses everyone, including Jackson and Teal'c, and Sam lets him linger, and Vala slips in a little tongue and so does Teal'c, and he knows, at that moment, that there are bigger things than saving the world, and they can't matter, in the end.
