Link: Five Planets Sam Carter Wishes She'd Never Visited

Why This Must Be Read: Exactly what it says on the tin: five canon planets that Sam wishes they'd never visited, with an extra dash of angst in the last one for good measure. Good, solid characterization that fits Sam perfectly! Too short to excerpt, so just click and read. :)

Meetings on the Stair by Sentientcitizen (G)

[mific.livejournal.com]

Show: Stargate Atlantis/Firefly

Rec Category: crossovers (specifically, with Firefly)
Characters: Rodney, River, the usual SGA favourites
Categories: Gen
Warnings: None
Author on LJ: sentientcitizen
Author's Website: see the Ao3
Link: Meetings on the Stair

Why This Must Be Read: This is another nice take on Rodney and River meeting, although this is canon Rodney, still on Atlantis, with River mysteriously appearing, due to certain people having a special relationship with the 'verse. A good character study about Rodney, with River as an unlikely and somewhat frustrated messenger, trying to get through to him.

Why This Must Be Read: I really like this five things, which fits Vala perfectly: apparently bright and shiny and silly, but with unexpected depths. If that's not Vala, then what is?
