So I'm currently in Season 3 of Sg1 and I have been hit with another difference between Sg1 and Atlantis.

The SGC is a job. Atlantis is home.

Don't get me wrong, the sg1 team is pack bonded and absolutely feral about each other. They are family. They are friends. They are also coworkers. They commute to the sgc. They have houses and apartments and lives outside of the stargate program. (Well, some of them do.) They get paid, go on vacations, and get benefits. In the end, this is a job. A job you love, with people you would die for, at a place that could be a second home, but a job.

Atlantis is a home first and a job second. They live there. They fall asleep to the sound of waves lapping against the piers of Atlantis. They go for runs in the catwalks. There's a chess club, a mensa chapter, an outdoors club, they go fishing and play volleyball together. They go for dates in the cafeteria, have Atlantis movie nights, and meet up for breakfast. They're a tight knit community.

The SGC is also a military base and it shows, it's barren and impersonal, there are a few exceptions to this, like Daniel having a picture of Sha're on his desk, but for the most part there's little to no personalization. Even the lighting is often very sterile and military. Again, there's exceptions, like the often warm and yellow lighting used in Daniel's office, but the hallways are all extremely sterile. (There's something to be said for the way that Daniel is most often the one breaking up the uniform and military vibes of the base, but that's another post)

Atlantis, on the other hand, is heavily personalized. They hang posters on their walls, they have golf clubs, art supplies, and remote control cars. There's dirty clothes on the floor of their quarters, a mini fridge tucked into the corner, and books left open on their beds. There's something so familiar and comfortable about Atlantis. A sense of belonging that doesn't come across as much as in Sg1.

Honestly, I think it comes back to how militarized the SGC is and how civilian Atlantis is. The vibe is less found family military heroes and more Atlantis is a home to the lost and the broken.

Stargate SG-1 2.19 "One False Step"

[sweet-little-tank-top-number]

Stargate SG-1 is the story of how one man with ADHD has to wrangle his team of three different flavors of idealistic autistics. Together, they save the world from cheesy 90’s ancient Egyptian aliens.

the ending of avatar is just so good. teal’c and daniel have reached the final stage of the game. the goa’uld could be any one of sam, jack, or siler and daniel’s two-second precognition isn’t enough to tell which one it is in time. the naquadah generator is about to explode and sg-1 is stuck in a four-way standoff.

and then at almost the last minute teal’c makes a decision to trust his team. he decides to trust that jack and sam are on his side just like he took a chance on trusting jack and betraying apophis in children of the gods.

and his trust pays off, sam defuses the bomb and they kill goa’uld!siler and win the game. and then:

“we have won”

“it’s what we do”

it IS what they do they are a FAMILY and they have so much FAITH and TRUST in one another i love them SO MUCH

I just think Teal’c would love the NORAD Santa Tracker. Military personnel being used for good in the community and to give people (and specifically children) hope? He’d eat that up after so many years serving false gods who used military might for intimidation.

He’d also definitely volunteer SG-1 to work the call center.

Yes, yes, I know. Daniel’s little pose is all we care about, but just… just look at how pretty this is.

I’m watching sg-1 for the first time so I don’t know if this is a continual thing in the show, but I love the way Daniel is constantly holding Teal’c’s weapon for him. I know it’s tactical, but it gives me such “making your younger sibling carry your stuff” vibes (S1E11)

Plus this moment at the end killed me
