Now how did I see that one coming?

Because you're an all-seeing Ori?

It certainly sounds that way, what with all the nuggets of insider info I keep dropping all over the place. ;D
This may not sound right first off, but I'm having a lot of fun with Ronon's character in my fanfic. What I mean by that is I'm having fun writing for him. I hate it when people throw character justice to the wind in their fanfic, so I'm doing my best to preserve it without sounding hokey. I have the characters say and do what I can picture them saying and doing in the given situation, regardless of whether or not I've ever seen them in such a situation on the show. While that gets challenging at times, it's fun for me, and writing for a character like Ronon is one of the bright spots.
Phew! Well, as Haliyah might say, [/yammering]

Lol! xD
Yeah, I've always found it hard writing for characters other than my own and staying true to them.
I've recently decided to write my own Stargate: Atlantis fic and so I've found a site with transcripts of the series and episodes to help me out. I really want to do a good job on this one.

And as for his name, I've seen it spelt Ronin, Ronon and Ronan. xP I spelt it Ronin because of the Japanese word Ronin, which kind of means wanderer.

Yes, it's the term used to describe a masterless samurai warrior. The official spelling of the name is "Ronon", though. I've done my digging.
The word "ronin" was quite a source for amusement in my tenth grade history class, though.

Cool, I'll make sure I use that from now on then. Lol... Ronon *thunk*

At that same con I mentioned elsewhere, I saw Jason Momoa in person. That really is his hair.

How tall is he actually?

I can't give a number off the top of my head (it actually says on IMDb), but from my perspective: Really, really tall.

I've never been to a Sci-Fi convention or anything Stargate. I've only ever been to an anime convention and it was the crappest thing I've ever wasted money on. Was it weird seeing him in normal clothes rather than the leather stuff or was he wearing leather stuff... ? xD

Truth be told, I didn't even notice. I was too busy thinking "He really looks about the same, smiles and laughter aside." He had a cup of coffee in his hand though, and that was something of a distraction.

xD ...I don't like coffee. I drink Milo, water and Coke. I was trying to find information on the Daedalus along with images before. It was rather harder than I expected.

I think that's partly due to how long it's been around. Ships like the various Enterprise ones from Star Trek have been around so long that they came up with official blueprints. My dad has a set. ;D
What's Milo?
