That reminds me. I was skimming through the beta tab at ff.net (out of boredom) and found a nun that writes Stargate fanfic. And apparently she's a Sam/Jack shipper. I've had several nuns as teachers in my 13 years at Catholic school and the whole concept just cracks me up for some reason.
Oh, I know you're not alone in your amusement! A good Catholic education is rather pointedly designed to hammer home the idea that they aren't like us, they're nuns! To find one being eminently human seems to bring that reaction, lying somewhere on the intersection between nervous and delighted laughter.
No doubt Sister-the-Shipper read the interview with Amanda Tapping where she talked about the tags she was wearing, noting that Carter's said RC. With a name like O'Neill, clearly his do too, so the Sister can envision a happy ending when they manage to get the blessing of the Air Force, as well as the blessing of their parish priest. Always nice to see the faithful receive the blessing of the Sacraments! As neither Sam nor Jack seem cut out for life as a religious, it would seem to be the best outcome to be expected!
Jonas Quinn, now, what a Priest that boy might have made! And such a nice Irish surname. He's sure to be Catholic, surely?
