Why This Must Be Read: This is a wonderful mixture of mission fic and character studies, centered around Rodney's POV and involving them all, as they figure out what's going on between them and find a way to make it work. The ending may not be quite what you expect but it's satisfying and right for them, and it's just a really great read.

Why This Must Be Read: This is a gentle exploration from Rodney's slightly oblivious POV of the team developing their OT4 relationship. Realization dawns slowly for Rodney - first about being in a team, and then, that it's become a lot more than that. As you'd expect, it's really well written and a lovely character piece about them all, especially Rodney.

Link: Endings Unexpectedly Happy on AO3

Why This Must Be Read: This is one of Mira's lovely post-apocalyptic stories which is nonetheless, as the title says, unexpectedly happy. Forced by the Wraith to flee Atlantis, the team have formed an extended family and put down roots elsewhere in Pegasus. I love how they've all matured and the lovely complexity of their relationships and the lives they've made. Mira's stories like this one, set in these kind of 'exiled from Atlantis' 'verses aren't straightforwardly happy at all, but to me, they're comfort fic of the best and most real kind.

Why This Must Be Read: This is a short series of 2 fics, combining two of my great favorites - OT4 and slave-fic (also aphrodisiacs and drunk!fic, as a bonus). In the usual 'we'll do anything in the name of trade relations' spirit of SGA, Rodney, John and Ronon become Teyla's slaves off-world at a dinner/orgy. It's hot, yes, and hits a lot of kink buttons, but the dialog is also really great and their characterizations are spot on. A whole lot of fun.

Why This Must Be Read:
This is such a great fic, with the team in a foursome and now having to negotiate one of Ronon's hitherto unknown Satedan rituals: 40 days of kind-of celibacy. It's funny and hot and it gets their voices just right. I especially love the married domesticity of it all, which is hilarious and rings very true.
Thingswithwings' stories were on LJ and DW before being uploaded to AO3 which is why, I think, this fic's only got 2 comments. I reckon it needs a lot more, so read and enjoy, and leave TWW a little love!

Yes, that Pope. Sure, it's a bit blasphemous, but it's also hilarious and inspiring. When it comes to humor and crack, this is up at the top of the charts. There are 10 fics total, ranging from all-ages to explicit - and they're all worth the read!

Why This Must Be Read: The back half of S3 was bursting with events that should have affected Teyla deeply, but precious little time was devoted to her actually dealing with them. Then along comes this incredible tag for "The Ark" that cuts right to the heart of what Jamus was trying to do and why that would terrify her so much. The OT4 is not incidental here; it's the shape of her team around Teyla that holds her together and brings a measure of peace (and closure) to an episode that left so many questions behind.

Why This Must Be Read: Okay, if I like a story? Chances I'll like its remixes are actually lower. Like, rock bottom. But I love this one.

[livejournal.com profile] panisdead works very delicately to shift Rodney's point of view from Oikos, giving us the social misfit we know and love without sacrificing the beauty of the original. It's like a remake of a classic movie everybody loves, but one done by a brilliant director who understands the original perfectly. And after reading this, I understand the original better, too.

Everyone's in character, feeling their own way; it's impossible not to root for them and hope that everything will be all right come morning.

Why This Must Be Read: One of the classic tropes of OT4, gen or otherwise, is the napping fic.

It's short. Indulge yourself. ^_^

Mira intricately balances present happiness against the future's great unknown in four unique ways, weaving the landscape into their relationships to build a fresh, new world. This is one of the few genuinely joyous fics I've ever had the pleasure to read. Also, it's really, really hot.

Why This Must Be Read: Ok, some days? You are just looking for the hottest smut you can find. This right here would be it.

It's a case of Teyla on top, John on bottom, and Rodney and Ronon watching desperately, waiting for their turn. Yes, there's some kink, but it's standard stuff. What makes this story different is the way it's told: in short bursts, from Ronon's voyeuristic pov, and in a casual style that highlights the incredible images. All of [livejournal.com profile] 30toseoul's PWPs are hot; this one is incendiary.

If you have never believed in OT4 before, this story could convince you. If you're an old hand, this is a totally different take from anything else you've seen. Read it with chocolate.

Why This Must Be Read:

Because Sheppard had to be affected after the events of Common Ground, right? And this story details his freakout perfectly, with bonus team bonding.

John knew he was freaking out, because not long after Beckett had started the exam, he had touched John's arm and John had flinched away. Since then, Beckett had been very careful and even more gentle than usual. He made very sure not to startle John, holding up each instrument first and explaining what he was going to do with it. Considering that Beckett had done John's post-mission exams and physicals and surgeries and everything else for two years, it might seem unnecessary. Except it wasn't.
