With the caveat that this is how I interacted with your stories before I drifted out of SGA fandom:
Most of them I'd read more than once, when I was randomly in the mood for it or it came up on delicious' recently-bookmarked. Sometimes I'd be like, Man, I really want to reread Ipetia or the one where everybody breaks out of prison and Teyla's carrying a ladle as a weapon.
I never finished reading Quo Vadis (? the Orii one) because I was pretty sure you were foreshadowing Suarez' death and I didn't want to see it happen. I know he gets the happy ending in your canon-verse but there were hints in a lot of stories that made me think he wasn't going to make it out of Pegasus alive.
For a little while I toyed with the idea of outlining and then asking for permission to remix Reletti's story as a fairytale.
I did--do--like the hyper-realism because it gave a much-needed balance to the canon of fanworks, and also because it made for such excellent crack. SGA canon is so out-there already and things like people turning blue were so great to see in that style.
I still think of The Jenny Code when I hear 867-5309.

I wish we still had a fandom in common.
I'd make a joke about a fairy tale with Reletti chasing dragons in dress blues and a sword, but I don't remember if you saw Generation Kill.
Honestly, I have no idea what fate Suarez has in Qui Habitat; there are times when I think that I have to kill off one of Lorne's marines because people have to die and I can't kill off Bacon Dude and his Buddy, but... there are other OCs who'd be effective in the role and Suarez really has already lost everything. Most of the time, I think Sheppard's more at risk.
