Rodney McKay and the Evil Whumping Girls of Doom

Photos and story by Leesa Perrie and Jayne Perry

A story with action figures, inspired by Wraithfodder's Action Figure Theater

Photos taken at Chevron 7.2 in England, February 2009. The story has been split into three parts plus an extra page of deleted scenes.


Part One

Rodney
"Help! I'm being kidnapped by an Evil Whumping Girl! Help me, please!!"

John
"Don't worry, Rodney, I'll save you!"

Scuffle, scuffle.

KAPOW!

Rodney and John
"Great plan, Colonel!"

"Okay, that didn't go so well."

"You think? Oh crap, Evil Whumping Girls! You do know what that means, don't you?"

"Yes, but fortunately for me, I think they're more of the McKay-whumping breed…"

"That is so not reassuring!! Help!!!"

Meanwhile, Evil Whumping Girl #1 takes her captives to Chevron 7.2 in Bedford, England and meets up with Evil Whumping Girl #2. 

And now, the story begins… (insert shimmery, swirly film effects here)

Team
"Where's the base of the Stargate?"

"Well, McKay, credit crunch, cutting budgets and all that..."

"Did not the Evil Whumping Girls say they were unable to find both parts of the base?"

McKay turns pale at the mention of the Evil Whumping Girls.

"Teyla, I told you not to mention them..." John reminds her.

"I am sorry. I forgot."

"That's okay," Sheppard says, as Teyla goes to talk to Ronon.

Rodney and John
Sheppard decides he needs to distract McKay.

"Hey, have you noticed how much taller Ronon is these days?"

"Yeah, that's a bit odd."

(Evil Whumping Girl #1 whispers in John's ear.)

"Hmm, apparently she forgot to check the scale before printing him off."

"Well, that was stupid of her!"

"Ooh, you don't want to piss off the Evil Whumping Girls, Rodney."

"Um, no. So, how did Ronon get so flat as well?"

Rodney and John
"He fell into the trouser press!"

"He did not, Sheppard!"

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

(Evil Whumping Girl #2 tells the boys to shut up and get on with the story.  As she's holding a wooden rolling pin with intent, they decide that discretion is the better part of valour and move on.)

Team and Elizabeth
Elizabeth arrives on the scene.

"Remember, we desperately need to find more food.  The Daedalus is still on Earth and we're on the verge of a mutiny! We must find a planet soon that can provide us with supplies."

"Oh believe me, I understand," McKay says, shuddering.

"Yes, Rodney. We need to get new supplies soon..."

"Or else we'll run out of coffee, I know! How could this have happened? Who does the food requisitioning? Really, this is intolerable..."

((In his quarters, Zelenka is hiding the extra coffee he requisitioned.))

"Yeah, yeah, settle down, McKay."

"Well, I wish you good luck," Elizabeth says. "And be safe."

She walks back to the control room, ready to order the gate to be dialled.

Rodney, John and Teyla
"Oh crap, did you hear her?" Rodney says, aghast.

"Yes, Rodney, no coffee..."

"No, no, not that! Well, not just that. She just jinxed us with her 'good luck' and 'be safe'!"

"I never took you for being superstitious."

"Well, I'm not really, but fanon demands that someone reacts this way to her good wishes, and today it looks like it's my turn!"

Team
"Okay, Elizabeth, we're ready."

"Um, just a thought," Rodney says. "Do you think Ronon will fit through the gate?"

"He'll just have to duck his head..."

"And why hasn't he said anything?"

"Evil Whumping Girl #1 can't think of anything for him to say right now."

"Oh."

"Yeah."

After moving away from the gate so that the kawhoosh doesn't kill them, the gate is dialled...


Onwards we go...
