Oh, neat use of the prompts! And much better than anything I came up with. Thanks for pinch-hitting, currently-anonymous pinch-hitter!

Thank you kindly. In all honesty, when friendshipper asked for the pinch hit, I'd been thinking about how often canon characters are killed off in the AU when the show itself does AUs. The idea for the fic sorta sprung from there. I'm glad you liked it.

These were all excellent and some i would have liked to see how much further they could go.

Thanks. Glad you liked it.

Although, I'm really not sure if I'll ever get back to these to expand them, I myself would be curious to see where they'd go - if anyone else wanted to explore those universes.

Cheers.

This was great - all of the AUs were canon-based ones, and I love how you handled them all. Brilliant.

Of course, one wonders what happened next. Well, in the ones where we don't know, that is!

Thank you kindly.

I too wonder what might happen next in many of them, since I really haven't a clue with some. I'm not sure I'll be able to get back to these (I never seem to find the time), so if anyone else wanted to pick one up and run with it, I'd love to read the results. Hinting? Moi?

I especially liked "V" -- we seem to forget that Sam left a mess behind her and Rodney to clean it up... nice picture of what might have been.... or what could be....

Yeah, I was rather fascinated by that AU too and I really liked the depiction of Lorne in it (Cameron too, but this was a SGA fic). I'm glad you enjoyed the fic. Cheers!
