Why This Must Be Read:

A tale from way back, but full of snappy dialogue, nice visuals and old fashioned team togetherness in the midst of a Daniel-in-Peril storyline.

"I KNEW I shouldn't have gotten out of bed this morning. I mean--by the time I stumbled into Starbuck's, twenty minutes late, the kid at the counter took one look at me and doubled my usual order. This should have been my first clue. But here I am, less than 24 hours later with my best friend holding a machete to my throat promising to kill me. And this is the BEST news I've heard all day."

Why This Must Be Read:

A cute new story for my second rec; Sam is attempting to hotwire a Gould gadget, Daniel is providing best-guess translation from the manual to help her.  A gentle little slice of SG-1 to see out the year.

Snippet:
"It says blue?"
"Well, it says 'the flower of Nefertum', so blue is an educated guess on my part."

Why This Must Be Read:
A long, clever, clever, plotty piece which is just right for curling up with on your sofa.  Post-Baal, Jack experiences alarming hallucinations which escalate along with the story.  A team drama - which (fair warning) includes Jonas and not Daniel - that will leave you guessing until the end.

"Desert planet, swamp planet, ice planet...?" 
From the corner of his eye he saw her lips twitch in a repressed smirk. "Try none of the above. The MALP showed blue skies, rolling hills, a valley with a little village..."
"Ah. So it's going to be one of those missions."

Why This Must Be Read:
In this, the last of my Dec Gen recs (what do you mean, don't leave everything to the last minute?!), Daniel appears to be suffering time bending after-effects from Avatar.  It makes for an interesting read; Daniel's perception of what is happening around him causes him to react in confusing ways for the rest of his team.  As with all Travelling One's stories, the plot cracks along at a nice pace and the Jack & Daniel friendship is warm.

Daniel felt Jack tugging him towards a closed wormhole, realizing he much preferred to be functioning two seconds early than several seconds too late. Closing his eyes he allowed himself to be led through the gate, just as he heard it swoosh open.

There's not a whole lot I can, or will, say about the number of volunteers for this month. Just that, well, without volunteer rec'cers, this comm will no longer exist. That's an unavoidable fact. I'm not overly fond of the practice of waiting until I post this list to go and volunteer. It doubles the work that both [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and I have to do. But yeah...

Character

Janet Fraiser-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Daniel Jackson-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Teyla Emmagan-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Rodney McKay-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Jack O'Neill-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]

Friendship

Cameron Mitchell and Daniel Jackson-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]

Genre

Humor-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Gen-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Original Character-- "[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]

Pairing

John Sheppard/Teyla Emmagan-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
John Sheppard/Rodney McKay-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Daniel Jackson/Jack O'Neill-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Jack O'Neill/Samantha Carter-- [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]

So there you go. [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and I will be evaluating all the categories. We'll be removing ones that have not been rec'ced in 2008 and moving them to the appropriate 'Other' category. So yeah, we're going to be losing several. We'll be going through the 'Other' categories and adding new regular ones that have been rec'ced frequently. But, of course, volunteering is going to have to pick up or else... well, I think we know what happens.
