November fics (aka: whoa, how is it December already?)
Fic I Recced
So I grabbed Sam Carter for
stargateficrec and then I realized that 1) Daniel was still open and 2) Daniel is the only member of original SG-1 I've never recced, so in a fit of greed I grabbed him too. It's dangerous spending a month reccing your two favorite characters....but I did make my 50th rec over there! *parties* To celebrate, I...won't rec in December because real life will eat me alive.
Sam Carter
One by Aimless [Sam and Daniel are caught by a power-crazy scientist on another world who implants devices that cause one to feel the physical sensations of the other to use them as hostages]
Unreasonable by
raqs [Daniel tries to fix Sam's sink. Sam thinks about the life she doesn't have. There is sex. This and
Blue Jell-o Metaphor are the two fics that define who Sam is to me.]
Five Things About Sam Carter That She Doesn't Know About Herself by
paian [hidden talents, family relations and unrealized dreams and a final thing that hits everything just right]
Insert Appropriate Cracky Title Here by
beanpot [Sam and Rodney get turned into toddlers and terrorize Atlantis. SG-1 is called in to help. Teal'c is awesome.]
Looking At The World From The Bottom Of A Well by
synecdochic [Sam/Daniel early in the eurydiceverse - Daniel bringing Sam into her own, Sam lying to herself and twisting the reality she sees and just so much here]
When I Go Into the Grass of the Sea Floor, I Will Go Alone by
splash_the_cat [Sam Carter and John Sheppard after "Reunion" and all the memories of replicators]
Daniel Jackson
Untitled Abydos Snippet by
6beforelunch [Daniel on Abydos after "Forever In a Day"]
You Sleep In a Palace by
paian [short, beautiful look into Daniel's sub-consious]
System of a Down by
samdonne [an alternate take on how Descension could have happened]
Things Not Dreamed by
stargazercmc [Daniel and Jack and Sam and elementals and Daniel trying to understand their need to fly]
Tiny Livestock by
shutthef_up [Daniel comes back after "The Broca Divide" with lice. SG-1 is in rare form - wonderful early season humor and great Janet]
(Interesting. Of the 6 Sam fics I recced, 2 are Sam/Daniel and 1 is Sam and Daniel friendship but Sam isn't even strongly featured in most of the Daniel fic I recced. Odd.)
Fic I Wrote
I wrote my
sg1teamficathon story which is posted
here put still locked down until the ficathon goes public.
I also wrote four comment fics for the
Pornucopia that
surreallis ran all of which are archived
here (Sam/Daniel - rain - NC-17; Sam/Jack/Daniel - no prompt - R; Jack/Sara - autumn - PG; RepliCarter/RepliLiz - Hunger - PG-13)
My responses for the "Name any story I've written, and any character in them, canon or OC. I'll tell you three things about that character which I didn't put in the story." meme are
here.
I also wrote grad school apps :)
Fic I loved this month (so not a comprehensive list)
Okay, I didn't read all that much (see: grad school apps) but there were some goodies.
First and foremost, the Pornucopia had lots of really good stuff - ship and gen and OT3 and all sorts of pairings.
surreallis posted the index for it
here so you can pick and choose. I'd point to specific ficlets, but I'd end up pointing to over half of them.
A Tongue With No Cognates by Tallulah Rasa - After "Homecoming" Jack tries to help Daniel refind his life again in some crazy, very Jack-like ways, using SGC's lost and found and pizza.
Five Times Sam Dreamed of Daniel by
thayln - I just realized I totally meant to rec this this month. This was written for
sg1_five_things and it's just...it's so perfectly them. From the funny to the heart-breaking.
Untitled Whumping Humor by
6beforelunch - Season 10 SG-1 falls into a hole. Do I need to say any more?
Every Day Is Like Sunday by
nostalgia_lj - An AU off "Lost City" where Asgard bring Jack back but he isn't quite right. At least they let Sam and Daniel visit. Hurts so good.
The Metamorphosis by
fyere - Pure crackfic. SG-1 thinks Daniel got turned into a cat.
Without a Scratch by
Surreallis - Cam/Daniel (friendship with possible UST) - Cam lets Daniel drive his car after a hard day/week/month/year/life. I love the dynamic between the two and I love Daniel's observations about Cameron.
There's No Place Like Home by
aurora_novarum - Early SG-1 shows Cassie "The Wizard of Oz" for the first time.
The Pegasus Tinies: A Dreadful Abecedarium, with Selected Illustrations by
argosy and
_kiden - Wonderfully funny and fantastic illustrations.
De Homine: The Windfall Light by
troyswann - a post-Meridian "Tin Man" fic with shades of Jack/Daniel that is just beautiful like everything
troyswann touches.
Tin Pot by
aelfgyfu_mead - a tag for "Tin Man." Maybourne wants to study robots. SG-1 is all too happy to help him.
Not Even by
pepper_field - Jack/Sara apocafic (OMG best fic subgenre ever) with bonus glimpse into pre-series lives.
