Something I haven't done in forever : a fanfic rec!
OK, I'm telling myself it's like riding a bicycle, and I haven't fogotten how to post on LJ...
I love Stargate, both the film with Kurt Russel and the SG1 series (Stargate Atlantis is more meh... for me). And ivory_gates wrote an AU with nearly all my (guilty) pleasures : always-a-girl!Daniel, Jack/Daniel, AU, happy ending. Her fic is also an AU of the film, but she casted the actors of the series while writing the fic. Anyway, I love her fic and I thought I'd spread the love, even if I'm pretty sure everyone in the Stargate fandom has already read it.
Title: Change is only the beginning ( a VERY alternate universe)
Fandom: Stragate, Stragte SG1
Author : ivory_gates, on dreamwidth and AO3
Rating: I'd say Mature or NC-17, but I'm the one rating the fic, not the author
Length: no word count, but this fic is pretty long
Warnings: nothing in my opinion, or maybe violence for the battle scenes
Sumary: no sumary provided by the author, so have the first two paragraphs of the fic:
A year ago O'Neill was yanked out of retirement on the assumption that -- after fifteen years of empty promises -- Catherine Langford was finally about to get Project Giza off and running, having pulled an unauthorized civilian specialist out of her ... hat ... to translate the Coverstone. Only Dr. Simon Gardner's been a real disappointment, they're no closer to translating the Coverstone than before, and the Pentagon is getting twitchy. They want either a superweapon -- now -- or someplace else to spend their money.
It's Gardner's fiancée, Fordman, who throws them a bone. She gets drunk one weekend and tells Langford -- Langford holds tea parties for her staff, where apparently more than tea is served -- that if they really want to crack the Coverstone, they need Gardner's last girlfriend. The real reason Gardner dumped her was that the woman was apparently smarter than he was. Also crazy.
