Characters: Rodney McKay/John Sheppard, Teyla Emmagan, Ronon Dex, Charin, Sora.

Warnings: At the start of the fic, John's a ghost, having been murdered before the fic starts, but due to magic, the story has a happy resolution.

Why This Must Be Read: This is a charming magical AU where adolescent Rodney and John meet, but John's a ghost, attached to a box of haunted comics. The two of them have adventures and there's interesting worldbuilding (magic is a part of normal life in this 'verse), and their relationship grows. Don't be put off by the fact that John's a ghost at the start, as he doesn't stay incorporeal thanks to portals and magical worlds within worlds. Recommended!

Why This Must Be Read:

Another one that was written for me, this is five ways Teyla and Sora got a happy ending: after Sora flees the Genii, after the expedition don’t uncover the Genii’s secret, after Sora is sent to live with the Athosians after the storm, after Sora is ill in Atlantis, and after the expedition leaves.

Every section is a completely beautiful story on its own, digging into Teyla and Sora, what they mean to each other, what their lives mean in the context of their relationship, and what Pegasus means to them, how it affects their lives and their friendship. My favourite is the third, in which Teyla insists on sending Sora to live with the Athosians after the storm – it’s a lovely look at Teyla’s compassion and understanding, and her roots in Pegasus culture that no-one else in the city has at that moment.

Why This Must Be Read:

This was written for me for 2007’s [livejournal.com profile] sg_rarepairings exchange and I will happily confess to be gleeful and smug when I received it, because someone wrote this awesome fic just for me. And now I get to be gleeful and smug all over again while I rec it. Win-win.

Inflorescence starts with Teyla and her parents attending a naming ceremony on the Genii homeworld, where a very young Teyla suggests Sora as a name for a beautiful baby (did I mention I love stories about other world cultures? Teyla fic tends to have a lot of these). The rest of the story skips through the two of them growing up, until Sora’s coming of age ceremony at the end, full of bits and pieces of their culture, and of Sora and Teyla’s growing relationship.

What I really love about this is the little hints latentfunction weaves in about the Genii as we’ll see them in the show, and the effects of this on Sora, and then the effects of that on Teyla, and on their friendship, the way that Teyla seems to come so close to figuring it out, and then not. Also, she writes a really beautiful Teyla, so caring and compassionate, and a really clear picture of her growing up, even though we only see bits of it.

Summary: Teyla runs into a familiar face on an off-world trip.

Why This Must Be Read: [livejournal.com profile] sg_rarepairings truly gave rise to a lot of wonderful stories. This story gives us a few wonderful insights into Teyla, but also into what could have happened with Sora. The underlying former romance and friendship shines through in the way the two women interact and makes this story one of my favourites.

Why This Must Be Read: A character piece for both Teyla and Sora as well as a wonderful example of femslash, this fic is just beautifully written. It picks us up after 'The Eye' and we follow Sora through her imprisonment in Atlantis to Teyla bringing her to the Athosians. Sora has to adjust to her new life, to people around her she once knew, but who didn't know the real her. Throughout all this, we get wonderful insights into both the Athosian and the Genii culture.

Why This Must Be Read: Though a songfic, it uses only the bare minimum poignant lines to get across the point that inspires the themes of the story. I found it an interesting look into the way of the Genii, as well as an inspirational character piece upon Sora's changing point of view. With a welcome inclusion of Kolya and the dynamic between the two characters, going from student/teacher - her admiration of him - to her 'disgrace' and betrayal.

Why This Must Be Read: The rarity of fic for Sora would be one reason, but combined with interaction with an Atlantis character, reflection showing character development and mention of 'War and Peace' and it all makes it a short but touching piece for the character - it convinces me she can move on from the vengance shown in canon.
