therealljidolflipflop_diva has used her reward to give someone the antidote! Did she save a life or did that precious elixir go to waste? I guess we will start finding out in the coming weeks!!***
But before we get to the regularly scheduled voting and polls, there is still the matter of YOU, the Idol contestants, and your attempt to stop this/these horrible Killer(s) from their murderous plots!
There was slightly more concentration of votes this time around, with fewer named suspects. (only 8 as opposed to 13 last time) But, by a slight margin, one name came out on top.
The Idolers formally accuse

Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.
Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished! Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!
Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.
Go!

the smokestack twins by devilswalkingstick (SFW)
Jul. 9th, 2025 12:56 pmmific posting in fanart_recsFandom: Sinners
Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Stack & Smoke
Content Notes/Warnings: none
Medium: digital art
Artist on DW/LJ: n/a
Artist Website/Gallery: devilswalkingstick on tumblr
Why this piece is awesome: Another take on this favourite scene for artists. I like the simplicity of the planes of colour, and how their signature colours are emphasised - red for Stack, blue for Smoke.

SGA: Nils Nisi Bonum by Dossier
Jul. 8th, 2025 12:46 pmmific posting in fancakeFandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: Genfic. John Sheppard, Teyla Emmagan, Elizabeth Weir, Rodney McKay, Aiden Ford, Steven Caldwell, Jack O'Neill, Cowen
Rating: G
Length: 27,574
Content Notes: Major character death. John has no special relationship with Atlantis and dislikes the city's voice in his head. Dossier's original Notes are here.
Creator Links: dossier on AO3
Themes: Working together, Character development, Teamwork, Action/adventure, Genfic
Summary: I had set the galaxy afire because she had given me her loyalty and trust.
Reccer's Notes: Yes, it's MCD, but hear me out. Dossier creates an AU story of Sheppard as Laurence of Arabia, eventually saving Pegasus from the Wraith. Like Laurence, he dies in a motor vehicle accident, which happens right at the start so you know what you're in for. The structure works well - a 3rd person account of his death, then the story itself from the expedition's arrival in Atlantis, told in John's first person POV like T. E. Laurence's "Seven Pillars of Wisdom", then a last 3rd person section about his death and the birth of his legend. Sheppard doesn't mercy-kill Sumner in this - he remains ostracised and mistrusted by the mainstream military and carves out a role for himself by "going native" and working together with Teyla and the Athosians, and eventually other Pegasus peoples, finally masterminding an alliance that destroys the Wraith, but being wounded himself and losing 20 or so years from a Wraith feeding. As with Laurence, he's ultimately tormented by the deaths he feels responsible for along the way, especially the massive genocide of the Wraith, and he dies on Earth, alone and largely unrecognised. But in Pegasus, it's a very different story. Not a comfort read, but a powerful and well-told story that fits Sheppard's character.

Nah, we cousins by crunchycerealisgood (SFW)

Artist Website/Gallery: crunchycerealisgood on tumblr
Why this piece is awesome: I just watched the movie Sinners, which has inspired an avalanche of excellent fanart. This scene of the smokestack brothers is a favorite for artists - here's one version, which includes a WIP gif. Stack is in the red hat, Smoke the blue cap (both played by Michael B. Jordan). I like the strength of the painting, and WIP vids are always fun.
