minxy: Teal'c raises a hand to say "hey". (Default)
[personal profile] minxy
There are no Harry Potter spoilers in this post.


I've got about twenty more fics to rec here; I figure it will make a nice break from the LJ kerfuffle (which I am apparently completely ignoring) and Potterdammerung (I have only just realized that the book will be out tomorrow. For lo, I am not on top of these things).

On the other hand (and I say this as a person completely non-plussed about the kerfuffle and whatnot) FUCKING HELL, BUSH. And, and AND, why is it I always find out about these things from my British friends? WHAT UP, JOURNALISTS? GET YOUR HEADS OUT YOUR ASSES.

Let's think about something nice, shall we? How 'bout some fanfic.

Supernatural gen, a day in the life of Dean's inner monolog (a la Brigit Jones) from [livejournal.com profile] mcee: Nice Dean voice, short and fun. Untitled. Gen, post S2 finale, worksafe.

SG-1, Sam and Vala, space pirates is always good. And Stars Awaken Above Me Sam/Vala. NC-17 from [livejournal.com profile] splash_the_cat.

SG-1, "Take These Broken Wings [2]" from [livejournal.com profile] synecdochic. Link takes you to the second in this series she's writing, but all of it is really worth looking at, if nothing else for the incredibly surprising way her most unusual pairing turns out to be one of the happiest and most well-adjusted ever in Gate'verse. Her Cam is incredibly astute, stubborn and adaptable (and dealing with completely plausible lingering issues from his back injury in this AU) and her Jack is clone!Jack, the younger one, who has made some deliberate decisions to not be the other guy again, and who is loving his new freedoms. For a couple of fairly badass guys, they are just so HAPPY. Must be all that sex. Not worksafe.

SGA: [livejournal.com profile] chopchica: Fic: Take a Chance on Me (Sheppard/McKay, NC-17, part 1 of 3, series complete). Nice, long story with a variation on Alien yentas, in this case, wonky alien 'know thyself' hoodoo, directed at Sheppard, who does an admirable job of deflecting and avoiding as much as humanly possible. Darn those alien disco balls. NC-17, slash.

SGA gen from [livejournal.com profile] sga_flashfic: Snow Men, by [livejournal.com profile] mahoni (Exhaustion challenge) John and Ronon, with good guy voices and a nice little coping interlude where they manage. I loved John's apprehension about Ronon waking up, actually. Worksafe.

SG-1 (Jack/Daniel and Sam/Daniel) [livejournal.com profile] what_works (emdash) gives us Five Ways Daniel Tells Sam That He's Been Sleeping With Jack R-rated, not worksafe, if memory serves. Very nice set of Five Things, though, without character bashing on any count.

SG-1 finalefic: Da Capo again from [livejournal.com profile] splash_the_cat. This is Sam and Teal'c at the finale, and lovely. But then, I have a HUGE MASSIVE WEAKNESS FOR SAM AND TEAL'C FINALEFIC. (ahem) Gen, worksafe.

Remix: quid ex quo (the something something remix of Sid's 'quid pro quo') by [livejournal.com profile] paian. Have I told you about this one already? Well, it's a wonderful lazy Saturday kind of story. Read it while you're waiting for the mailman with your HP book or something. Jack/Daniel, not worksafe.

SG-1 from [livejournal.com profile] ana_grrl. Incredible Luck, Annoying Charm (Teal'c, Vala, PG) Fantastic aliens bonding story (I've read some nice Vala gen lately) while figuring out how to beat the silly Earth people at their silly basketball game. Worksafe.

Firefly: Eris from [livejournal.com profile] nestra. Fairly hilarious, but absolutely in character, with wonderful voices and such. There is story involving Jayne's Momma, which, you know, completely in character and all, but everyone, even Wash's one-liners, sound pitch perfect in this. Slash, Jayne/Mal, not worksafe.

SG-1 from the [livejournal.com profile] sd_ficathon: From Such Great Heights. Author is [livejournal.com profile] triplesnap, and this is a nice little sleepy comforting almost morning after, with all Daniel's angst, per force. Nothing is sugarcoated, but this is still sweet. R-rated, and I'll err on the side of not worksafe, though there is really only one brief mention of anything explicit, and no naughty bits.

SG-1: OOH another Sam/Daniel Ficathon Fic: "Beneath the Waves" from [livejournal.com profile] rowan_d, and it's a fantastic story. Hurt and comfort and reason and friendship and elegant need warring with independance. Sam and Daniel, pre-ship and worksafe, wonderful sensory descriptions and Sam voice and unreliable narrator.

SGA: Deeply from [livejournal.com profile] thegrrrl2002 which, at the time, totally made my day. Easy, wonderful, surprising, intimate, all that stuff. John/Rodney, not-worksafe.

SG-1/SGA crossover: Five ways Daniel improves Atlantis from [livejournal.com profile] findo is Jack/Daniel Five Things and funny, seriously very entertaining. Worksafe.

SG-1 apocafic: Temperate from [livejournal.com profile] thassalia is Vala knowing how to live, and Cameron coming around to it and learning from her. It's a threesome fic with Teal'c being oddly hysterical in counterpoint to this wonderful bleak setting. NC-17, S10 without spoilers, very nice comfort. For [livejournal.com profile] sugargroupie's Wallsex Challenge.

SGA femslash: All the Pleasures Prove (Emmagan/Weir) [NC-17] from [livejournal.com profile] havoc_the_cat. Interesting take on AMTDI, and owning the choice. Plus the boys were cute. Not worksafe.

SG-1: I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this before, but it's one of my favorite pairings, so. [livejournal.com profile] niamaea's Cameron/Teal'c ficlet about movies. Seriously. And Daniel is adorably clueless and dirtyminded at the same time.

SG-1 fic: Carry Me Home (het, slash) from [livejournal.com profile] friendshipper. BECAUSE YES I LOVE FINALEFIC. And this one is excellent. Teal'c voice is grand, the undercurrents of emotions going on behind the physical intimacy are wonderful, and it has a wonderful yearning playing with all the sense of being home and awareness of the gift of all of it. This is poly, multiple partners, and not worksafe.

[livejournal.com profile] jenlev has said that she feels that Teal'c really needed the time of the finale to distance himself from soldiering, because that is just too close to First Prime, and friendshipper's fic does a nice job, to my mind, of letting Teal'c learn from his time, and consider all of it, gains and loss, as a terribly valuable gift.

And this would be a good time to mention that [livejournal.com profile] rydra_wong has called for a meme of sorts: August 6-12, grab the Character of Color/Colour of your choice, and then pimp like whoa. Start planning now, use any means at your disposal, and love on your character. It's about celebrating and I'm all for it. I do believe I shall participate. There might be meta involved. I may talk about Teal'c and the finale. I may write down that story that's being told in my head. Not sure yet. There are many days in the week, after all.

Was that twenty? I added some, I took some out, I discovered some duplicates in my del.i.cious list. So. That folder is all clear, at least until I dive in to the To Read list of links.

Thank you as always for your recs and just for being you. *Hugs*

And I'm glad there are other folks thinking about Teal'c. :::dashes off to read:::

I love when other people think about Teal'c. In my head, Cameron is doing lots and lots of thinking about Teal'c (he's such a fan).

*HUG*

From: [identity profile] jenlev.livejournal.com
Hee! Thinking about teal'c, and thinking about Cameron thinking about Teal'c is a very fine thing. Then there's thinking about Daniel and Sam who are observing Cameron thinking about Teal'c. And Jack who's thinking about them all. :)

o_O

...also, I just realized how many user names I managed to not code in this post. And that's after going back in and editing at least twice already.

*sigh*

Maybe I'll just ponder Cam pondering Teal'c for a while.

Ah yes, typos have a way of finding us all. ;)

Good plan, ponder away. :::said in Jack voice:::: because you know Jack would do that hand wave thing and say "ponder away".

I keep hoping if I mention it enough I'll guilt trip myself into finishing it.

That makes me happy. I'm always trying to give enough information that you can pick and choose what kinds of things you want at that moment, as well as generally giving a seal of approval. So I'm really glad that you found something that comforted. I, in turn, am pleased.

YES, PLEASE. How's tomorrow? I have a breakfast date with a teammate (not romantic) after paddling, but could be back around noonish?

And I'm far too tired to remember it at the moment, but I totally had a thought about Jack that paralleled some of yours.... and it's gone now. GONE. Bye idea!

pls to forgive babbling on account of I won state championship in sprints today. GO SELF (and boat team). Am tired. *thud*
