Why This Must Be Read: The team are trapped in a time loop with heavily armed rebels and a Wraith culling waiting at the end of each loop. This story is fast-paced and very enjoyable, with lots of team banter and -- as you may be able to guess from the category that this is rec'd in -- a certain amount of team damage too. *g*

Why This Must Be Read: From the dangers of an uncaffienated Daniel to the perils of letting Sam loose in a mall to the less than stellar advice regarding hats, these five bits of advice that Teal'c give Ronon are utterly delightful. Short, sweet, and a great read!

Five scars Daniel wishes he didn't remember getting by Jaxon Knight(G-PG by reccer)

Link: Five scars Daniel wishes he didn't remember getting

Why this must be read: This is a painful read that explores the power of scars and memories, how they're linked together on a person's mind and body. With only 600 words, Jaxon Knight paints a very powerful picture of the scars Daniel accrues through his service in the Stargate program and in his personal life. Oy, what lyrical word usage.... #5 will tear your heart out and make you think all at the same time. So for my last rec of my first month of reccing, I definitely urge you to read Jaxon's Five Things take on how life marks a person, and the effect it can have on a person to have those marks and lessons taken away.

No Greater Love by Adelle (NC-17)

[cynic2022.livejournal.com]

Show: Stargate Atlantis

Rec Category: McKay/Sheppard/Beckett
Characters: Rodney McKay, John Sheppard, Carson Beckett, Elizabeth Weir
Pairing: McKay/Beckett, McKay/Sheppard/Beckett
Het/Slash/Gen: Slash
Warning: Spoilers for The Siege II and III
Link:No Greater Love

Why this must be read: This is one of the most beautiful canon (mostly) interpretations of McKay/Sheppard/Beckett. Based on the premise that the three men have an established relationship at the time of The Siege and that John takes out the first jumper (canon) and Carson is called upon to take out a second (not so canon) and Rodney is left behind (very temporarily, of course.) Explores both the immediate aftermath of The Siege II and III and the story of how their relationship came to pass in perfect and quite believable detail. Glimpses into the minds of all three men's reactions to the event and an excellent characterization of Elizabeth make this an absolute must read.
