Why This Must Be Read: A post-heroes fic. This fic is heart breaking in its reality, Carson returns from Atlantis, to find the one person he never expected to find. Helsinki’s writing is fantastic as always, this fic had me believing that Janet had really come back to Carson. Their relationship is perfectly crafted and believable.

Why This Must Be Read: Because there aren’t enough good, long, well written and utterly fantastic pieces of Sam/Janet fiction like this around any more! Apart from that… it’s a completely original plot, well written and having inter-dimensional portals which are always fun. It has a lovely ending, without being too sickeningly sweet.

Why This Must Be Read: This is a missing scene for Broca divide, it touches on Jack’s reasons for doing what he did- volunteering himself to be tested on and a hidden past between the two. It is beautifully written and gives you a lovely sense of their emotions throughout.

Why This Must Be Read: In SG-1 lore, the "Death of Daniel" has become something of a punchline, and really, can you blame people, considering how many times it's happened? That makes it hard to be touched by any "Daniel Cheats Death" story, because frankly, the guy's died more times than a Tom Green movie. But fear not! Sideburns really knows how to bring the angst, and she's certainly a champion of this kind of DCD™ story. This one does it better than most, and tugs at the heartstrings in a way that never fails to bring tears to this old cynic's eyes. There's the requisite physical whump/trauma here, yes, but what really works is the emotion-packed journey toward acceptance for Daniel and his team when they realize that this time, he really is going to die. From the rage, helplessness, fear, love, and desperation from every single character - even the ones responsible for Daniel's condition - and ultimately, joy - each emotional note rings true, and the reader rides the roller-coaster right along with the characters. This one picks you up, shakes you around, and doesn't let you go until the very last word.

I know this has already been recced in the Jack/Daniel category, but as far as Angst goes, this one ranks near the top of the list of classics, and fully deserves a mention here too.
