Why this must be read:

I was browsing through Stargate recs when I came across this beauty. In this first person POV, we learn more about Daniel's feelings of isolation and confusion after he's just come back to Earth from Abydos. After reading Derridian's words, I just want huggle Daniel and tell him it'll be alright, even though we know it won't be all roses later. Derridian also plays with symbolism very well here with her comparing Daniel's outfit with how he's feeling inside. Some very nice and deep writing. And then at the very end, we've got Jack's promise that they'd find Sha're and Skaara; we can feel Daniel start to feel more comforted and not as lost as a result of this promise. A gorgeous piece that puts some perspective in how harsh the world must have felt to Daniel in those first hours and that first night back on Earth.

Show: Stargate Atlantis
Rec Category: Evan Lorne
Characters: Evan Lorne, John Sheppard, Ronon Dex
Category: Angst
Pairing: none or unrequited Lorne/Teyla, depending on how you see it
Het/Slash/Gen: gen
Warning: none
Author on LJ: tielan 
Author's Website: Tielan's Fanfic
Link: Lines Drawn, No Quarter

Why this must be read: I have a soft spot for Lorne/Teyla fics and this is one of them. Teyla isn't physically present in the fic, but it is essentially a fic about her and how the others feel about her and what they would do to keep her safe. The fic itself is quite short but it still manages to draw you in. Tielan fits a lot of characters into this fic and they are all very believable. And it's got Evan drawing.

Why This Must Be Read: Five different Valentine cards Teal'c sends: from the gentle sweetness of the clueless alien in S1 to the absolute pwnage of his final selection in S10, these are all delightful, moving and funny and charming in turns. Perfect Teal'c characterization with his interaction with his friends and teammates, and a delightful read!
