lilyhargraveHello Dreamwidth, I am back! With a post! : )
There will be more fanfic chapter imports/updates as well, soon. For now, more of a journal thing?
Well, with regards to fanfic... Do you (general, non-specific, metaphorical you) know how hard it is to make Stargate Goa'uld society make sense from a "behind the scenes" perspective?? Like! We know nothing! Who even runs things? Supposedly, the Jaffa are all warriors (males) or priests (females). And the humans are all slaves kept in a "all technology is magic" state. So... so who does the shopping? Who does the building of technological things? Who makes the weapons, the ships? Where do any advancements come from? Yeah, so a System Lord will have minor Goa'uld in their court under them, but... but they're still not going to be soldering things together? Are they? Producing microchips, sorry, crystals? Like... you need skilled labour?? And if your human slaves aren't allowed to understand how any of it works... who's doing the skilled technological labour? I think... I think the most reasonable answer is "the Jaffa". So, yeah, so much for "they're only warriors/religious functionaries".
Yeah. Anyway. That's things I'm trying to figure out for my fanfic right now, : )
