Why This Must Be Read:

This is a beautiful story about dealing with grief that brings a lump in my throat and tears to my eyes, even though I know there's a happy ending in the episode The Last Man.

Unrealized Reality, by antonomasia (PG)

[sg-fignewton.livejournal.com]

Show: SG-1

Rec Category: Teal'c
Characters: Teal'c, Bra'tac, team
Categories: gen, drama, time travel, episode related, crossover, AU, Teal'c/Drey'auc
Warnings: technical crossover with Farscape

Link: Unrealized Reality

Why This Must Be Read: The events of 48 Hours may have been instantaneous to Teal'c, but who knows what happens in a wormhole? In this fascinating crossover with Farscape, Teal'c spends those two days struggling to find the path to his own reality... and exploring some fascinating AUs at the same time. The whole thing is excellent reading, but the last two paragraphs are my favorite!

Reccer's note: Speaking as someone who only knows that Cam and Vala's actors had roles on Farscape, you can be safely assured that you can read this without any familiary with the fandom.
