The Other Side of the Time Loop
Fandom: SG1
The prompt was: There must have been a closed time loop when SG-1 ended up stranded in the future, before Cassie and/or Sam somehow got word back to the past to have Cassie waiting at the right moment. What was life like for Cassie in the loop where SG-1 never came back from 1969?
The result is an outstanding story that traces the life of Cassandra Fraiser in an alternate reality in which SG-1 never came back. Her world's history is detailed and realistic: the Jaffa are more wary of the Tau'ri without Teal'c, the Asgard have less to do with them without Jack, and there is little information on the Ancients without Daniel. On the other hand, there are the Furlings, the program gone public, victory over the Goa'uld, and a certain civilian becoming head of the SGC. Cassie gets a long, satisfying life, including marriage and a family... and then she discovers she's going to live another one, all over again.
