Why This Must Be Read: Here is Daniel getting all thinky after seeing alternate realities, with first Sam and then the others adding in their own two cents. I love how they're all beautifully in character, with Teal'c (of course) getting the final zinger!

Why This Must Be Read: Classic team for the win as Sam takes over when Jack disappears off-world. Inverted marriage tropes and betting pools may be a factor...

Competent team, humor, snark, friendship... what more do you need?


Sam closed her eyes on a sigh. Having to pretend to be married to her CO to keep him from being forced into matrimony with a benevolent dictator was a new one. She was pretty sure there wouldn’t even be a base betting pool about it yet.

Absolutely delightful kid!Rodney stream-of-consciousness as he meets this odd guy who needs to make a phone call from his house. Pitch-perfect, clever, and fun!

Why This Must Be Read: So what's the going rate for a colonel and an archeologist? Sam and Teal'c are about to find out!

Very short, very fun, slightly innuendo-ish (for Kalquessa, certainly). Sam and Teal'c as the slightly amused adults are always a win. :)


"So what's the plan for getting us out of these?" Daniel pulled the chain between his wrists taut.

"Well it's a bit crowded for a fire-fight, so we're going to buy you from that nice man in the leather shirt over there," Sam hefted the bag of coins she had been carrying, which clinked satisfyingly.

Trees and Jack off-world, just a little more... verbose than you might expect. And Daniel apparently speaks twenty-tree languages.

Ahem.

Very short, very sweet, and entirely worth it just for Sophie's automatic assumption regarding Teal'c and his staff weapon!

“Damn it, man, I’m a doctor, not a miracle-worker!” House spit out, leaning over his desk with an air of furious intent.

Teal’c, on the other side of the desk, raised one eyebrow. “I have merely asked you," he said calmly, "for Daniel Jackson’s antihistamines.”

And as this lovely five things shows, what looks like romance to outsiders can be something much deeper and closer and still be wonderfully gen - even when they try the ship thing instead. :)

Why This Must Be Read: Set early in Season 8. Our newly-minted General-Jack has been in charge a few weeks, and Daniel's noticing some attitude and behaviour changes around the place ... one change pointed out by Sam and Teal'c, specifically in Jack's behavior, though, proves to be quite the eye-opener not only to Daniel but also to Jack himself. Written with great wit, this is an engaging, funny, and reaffirming friendship story.

Why This Must Be Read: For anyone who found Todd being stuck in a jail cell at the end of the series as frustrating as I did, here's a delightful romp that follows John's efforts to set Todd free from Atlantis' brig, and explores the palpable-but-long-denied tension that existed between them from the moment they met.

Why This Must Be Read: Way back when, Pettygrew was (hopefully still is, somewhere?) one of those authors whose stories never failed to please. 'Protocols' is one of those: a classic Jack and Daniel conversation, set early in Season 8 just as Jack is trying to reconcile himself to his new role as the head honcho. The wry humour, characterisations, and dialogue are perfect -- a real treat.

Why This Must Be Read: One of my favorite authors is rearchiving her fic on AO3, which makes a great excuse for me to reread her work and discover the odd gem or two that I haven't recced yet!

I love good outsider perspective, and I love all the little, unknown yet crucial cogs that go into making the SGC tick. So Redbyrd's stolid janitor, cleaning up all the inevitable messes that smash up the Gateroom and every other level in Cheyenne Mountain, is a real keeper. You know what he doesn't know - and it will definitely leave you grinning.


Bill nodded knowingly. You couldn't work in this place without knowing that there was some seriously strange stuff going on. If you wanted to stay, you signed everything they gave you and kept your trap shut, no matter how weird it got. And Bill did want to stay- for cleaning up weird messes and taking special training for chemicals and biohazards and god-knows-what, you got a salary that was pretty much unheard of for what was basically janitorial work. All you had to do was ignore the occasionally oddly dressed people you saw and never ask questions.
