I woke up to the annoying sound of my housemate's phone ringing over and over...

I was disturbed today when I realized that a blueberry bagel was the highlight of my day.

So I read some fanfic, and life was better; this is why I love you people.

I am enjoying:

sg1_five_things, particularly the recently unscreened Five things SG-1 mutually agreed to omit from their mission reports. and Five times Cameron had sex with a member of SG-1.

Multiverse: Dr. Who and Daniel Jackson, pre-SG-1, from medie: I make the glare for light bulbs. Quirky and wierd and marvelous communication between two lateral thinkers. Worksafe.

janedavitt's darker version of Cam's mind during the finale. Makes you ache for the happy fanboy we first met, but never once do you doubt the plausibility. With Brief Thanksgiving, dark, with sexual references, but probably worksafe.

rowan_d's Sam and Jack from the ficathon: Stellar Drift. Fascinating change in the relationship, and in character for both to change the way they do. R rated, I think. Probably not worksafe. Sam/Jack.

cofax7's apocalypse_kree fic Strange Celebrations. After the end, after the mission, after their choices, it's amazing how they are simultaneously less restricted and less comforted. Worksafe, gen.

Mechanisms of Restraint, which begins with a non-con situation and... and I read it anyway. Non-con = not my favorite, but it was worth it for paian's writing alone. Additionally for the aftermath she builds and takes them wonderfully through, and for her unflinchingly honest look at who Jack and Daniel would be, were and would become given this set of variables. Fascinating. Not worksafe on many levels, though. Jack/Daniel.

For something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT (I'm so not kidding), please to be reading Thank You for Flying the Church of England by someinstant. It's cracktastic, it's witty like Douglas Adams, it's LOVE IN THE FORM OF FOOTNOTES. It's worksafe.

abyssinia4077's romp through silly food as comfort. Sam and Teal'c, Feeling Blue, lovely tag to S9's New Order. I think it was S9. Maybe it was S8. ANYWAY, gen, worksafe.

I'm having a day, people. Please forgive the capslock abuse.

Randomly, Firefly: Mal and Simon and Inara, in a desperately not serious caper that requires tact and gentility and patience and you just know there will be issues once Mal gets involved. Enjoyed the banters and the affrontedness and the adaptability and the reactions to same. Blue Willow, by gritkitty. Worksafe.

Jack and Daniel section:

Sweet routine and old married love: Third Watch, by Zillah. worksafe.

niamaea's Jack/Daniel ficathon piece: The Worth of Things Not Said, which has a marvelous conversation in fits and starts woven through episodes we've seen in S8. Love that they take so long to get on the same page, without any magical telepathy or understanding. Love that they're caught up in their own heads and issues, love that they surprise the other so absolutely sometimes. Pining, as it should be done. Very, very nice, happy piece. Not worksafe, though.

I hope that sidlj and michare1a had marvelous birthdays.

*hugs you and your Day*

Thank you for the rec! (and it's S8, but it really doesn't matter since you mentioned the episode). I'm so glad my random one-off fic is making people smile.

*hugs you again*

I refuse to dwell on my long-standing inability to recall names and seasons of episodes and instead I shall wallow in the hugs.

*hugs back really a lot*

[abyssinia4077.livejournal.com]

Eh, you love the characters and remember the important things. 'tis what matters.

Hugs are made for wallowing in!

*hugs more*

Speaking of, the Boy Who Hugs Well just called me! \o/ Fate, I say.

[abyssinia4077.livejournal.com]

oooh!
*bounces for you*

Thank you, minx, for the birthday wishes and all the yummy recs!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_minxy_/]

It's a little silly how much I enjoyed seeing happy birthday wishes for you splashed all over my flist. I hope you had a marvelous day-- you were certainly celebrated here.

Loved those Five Things you wrote too.

[sid]

Yes, the celebrating was a little overwhelming! I barely had time to write those Five Thingses what with all the virtual hugs and cake and good times to be had! Glad you enjoyed all of it. :-)

[cofax7]

Thank you for the lovely rec!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_minxy_/]

Oh, you're welcome. It probably deserves a more well phrased rec, but I did enjoy the story, and it had some fascinating elements. So. Please forgive the less than poetic description and accept my compliments.

[cofax7]

Anything that encourages people to read the story is a good rec in my book. So thank you!

[janedavitt.livejournal.com]

I love your rec lists and thank you for including the Cam fic :;snuggles::

[http://users.livejournal.com/_minxy_/]

Just because it made me sad, doesn't mean it's not a brilliant interpretation. Of course I included poor Cameron. (I also included the Five Times Cam has Sexxors with Teammates! just to make myself feel better, though.)

[alizarin-nyc.livejournal.com]

NO time to read, but there's always time for drive-by LOVE. *smooch*

[http://users.livejournal.com/_minxy_/]

Oh, thank you. I needed that.

(and the random phone call from the boy who hugs well didn't hurt either.)

[50mm.livejournal.com]

yay for recs! Hope the day picked up. *leaves pitcher of mai tais*
