Why This Must Be Read: This stort is about five alternate realities that Elizabeth Weir visited. It's got a nice team motif as they all wander from one parallel world to another, trying to find their way home, and each AU is perfectly poetic and unique. There's a nice balance of poignant moments and genuine humor, and I just love how creative she was with the AUs. Every one of them seems worthy of a whole story, from apocalyptic to humorous to, all of them, interesting.
“Nice,” Jack replied, “and you and your team are trolling through different realities for what? A joyride?”
Elizabeth rolled her eyes. “No,” she retorted. “We discovered some research in our database left behind by the Ancients. While we were performing our experiments, we were also negotiating with a people known as the Ankarians. On our return, there was an accident in our Gate’s systems. It sent us through to an alternate reality. We have been attempting to return to our own, but we have so far been unable to identify our own reality so that we may connect with our Gate.”
The general nodded slowly. “Uh huh,” he muttered vaguely. “That might be what McKay told me, but apparently it’s a constant across the realities that I understand less than one percent of what he says half the time.”
“It must be,” she agreed. “So, any chance you can help us out here, General? We’d really like to return home. Especially before temporal entropic cascade failure sets in, which could be at any time now, given that we’ve been here longer than we normally are in any one reality.”
Jack stood up. “We’ll see what we can do for you, Doc. I may even put a call into the SGC and see if I can get them to loan us a few brainiacs to help us out. My ex-wife will probably be willing for this project.” He gestured toward the door, so Elizabeth stood up as well and moved toward it.
“Your ex-wife?” she asked distractedly as she glanced around, looking for her team.
“Yeah,” Jack told her. “You. Or, your other self. Whatever.”
Elizabeth stopped dead. “What?”
