Occasionally you come across a crossover where you look at the fandoms involved and wonder 'how the heck does that work?' Accompanying this is often 'train-wreck' style of curosity to read it knowing that you'll probably won't be able to suspend your disbelief long enough to enjoy it.
The Luggage is not one such story. Here Ali manages to make SG-1s gate trip into Discworld make sense, or as much sense as a world that is flat and carried on the backs of four elephants who in turn ride on the back of a giant turtle named Atiun could be.
The Luggage is definitely a fic where some familiarity of the Discworld series is needed to thoroughly enjoy the humor. Even without, though, I think you'll have fun with it.
The team separated, Daniel and Teal'c found themselves in another small room much like the first, but lacking a Stargate, whilst Jack and Sam entered a much larger room with numerous shelves of books.
"Colonel, over there, there seems to be a librarian's desk, perhaps we could find someone." As they approached the desk it became clear that there were no people around, but there was something very strange. Sat at the desk with a book in one hand and a banana in the other was an orang-utan.
Jack did a double take, Sam blinked several times.
"Er Colonel?"
"Curioser and curioser," murmured O'Neill looking shocked. He then appeared to regain control, "For crying out loud, there's a monkey in the library!"
