Why This Must Be Read: Because what if Daniel had gotten on that bike instead of Cam in "Memento Mori"? Come on, you know you wondered! (Well, at least every Daniel/Vala shipper has.) Addy gives the answer. And the answer is hot as hell. But it's not just about the sex, shockingly enough, it's Daniel and Vala connecting, despite or maybe even because of the memory loss. The sex helps too, of course.

Why This Must Be Read: This story was recced to me as "multipairing," and if I had known it was going to end up going into foursome territory, I would not have read it. For some reason, the idea of foursomes or OT4 is fundementally too out there for me. I tend to think you can't make a romantic relationship work with so many people. But this story? Holy freakin' crap. I am eternally glad I read it because it builds the pairings one at a time. It sells you the progression of their evolving relationships. I am in awe of this writer, because this story isn't about sex (though it has some). It's about connection, and evolution, and finding family when you've lost others.

Let me warn people right now: It's not completely linear in the beginning, because it starts off with Teyla's death. But Teyla's presence is woven in through the entire story, in stunning flashbacks and in the hole she leaves behind among Atlantis. I know this is a rec for Elizabeth Weir catagory, but really, this is a character piece of everyone because it explores the entire cast and their dynamics wonderfully. Mutliple POVs, and everybody gets equal loving and exploration.

It made a OT4 believer out of me, and that? I thought impossible. Long, plotty, with great charactization. I cannot recommend this enough, especially to people that don't usually go for this type of fic. Read a few paragraphs, and trust me, you'll be hooked by the writing.
