Why This Must Be Read: I know many people don't like to read about OC's, but this one is well thought out and developed. Sabar is undercover at a Goa'uld court, and we get to see how a Tok'ra experiences that, through his thoughts and conversation with his host. It's a fascinating look into what might often be the daily life of the Tok'ra - a side we see almost nothing of in the show, and so it's wonderful when the writers give us this chance. Great story - now go read it

Why This Must Be Read: I didn't think I'd want to read this when it was recced on my Many Roads rec list. i don;t tend to read death fics. But this is an absolute little gem of storytelling told through the eyes of Todd the Wraith. It brought tears to my eyes but I ended it feeling happy that they were all together for so long and that in his own way, Todd too became part of the Lantean family.
