DUDES. So I'm watching the Castle episode "The Fifth Bullet," in which Riley Finn Marc Blucas is a crime victim with amnesia. The psychologist they've brought in gives the "three kinds of memory" speech, and in a narcissistic moment, I think "Huh, that's basically a paraphrase of the explanation Carson gives John over the phone in Unidentified."

#5. For K., who said, I think what I'd like most in the world is some small snippet from college life with John, Rodney, and Carson as roommates, from Unidentified-verse. SGA AU, takes place two years after the first flashback in Unidentified. As mentioned in the DVD commentary, the original draft of Jeannie and John's phone conversation referred ( Read more... )

Okay, so that was a longer gap there then I meant it to be, but my time was filled up with awesome people being hilarious and distracting, so I really can't manage to feel that bad. Hopefully you all won't hold it against me.

#4. This is for M., who requested Coda, after the end of the concert, please. SGA AU, probably makes little sense if you ( Read more... )

#3. This one is for V., who said, If you would write me a little teensy bit of Rodney back-story from before the event that precipitates 'Unidentified' I will be your slave ever so pleased and happy. (Especially if there is sex.) SGA AU, adult, probably makes little sense if you haven't read Unidentified. Expands on a very vague hint dropped in ( Read more... )

There is nothing to restore my engagement with the universe on a day when I have been feeling generally crappy like:

Title: Unidentified
Reader: justbreathe80
Summary: Fourteen years, eight months, and seven days after John and Rodney meet, the clock starts all over again.
Notes: SGA, AU, McKay/Sheppard. Text and supplemental materials here (or read the text ( Read more... )

Title: Canon for Two Instruments
Summary: They fog the glass and leave their handprints all over it, until all that shows in John's periphery is the city blurred out into smudges of color, gold and orange and deep blue. The missing scene from part three of Unidentified (index post here).
Details: NC-17, McKay/Sheppard, AU, ~5300 words.
Notes: ( Read more... )

I can't call it long-awaited, but it sure as hell is long. I started this back in September -- it took a few months to write and more toil than bears enumerating for poor, dedicated anatsuno to code (Ana: thank you), but it's finally going live.

DVD Commentary for Unidentified
Including:
- thorough spoilers for both Unidentified and the Coda (index post ( Read more... )

Title: Coda
Details: PG, ~6,800 words, McKay/Sheppard. Set a year and a half after the end of Unidentified.
Summary: In music: a more or less independent passage, at the end of a composition, introduced to bring it to a satisfactory close.
Notes: Spoilers for the original story, and this won't make much sense if you haven't read that. If you liked ( Read more... )

To say that I'm overwhelmed by the response to this story would be a major understatement. I'm completely blown away, and a lot of you have left comments that I really want to respond to, but it's going to take me a while to work through them. So in the meantime, I'm expressing blanket gratitude -- to everyone who's read this story and left ( Read more... )
