Aurora's Stargate fic

Links of coolness.

Evening the Odds was cleothemuse's answer to The One Prompt comm on lj and it's a hilarious look at Reynolds's philosophy of being a team leader.

To Dance on the Floor in a Round by pepper is a great team story. I'm not a fan of this genre, but this "realistic" spin on a very cracky cliche will have you laugh and cry.

Rumor Mill by cowardly lion is a "comic" aby rec'ced. You'd think the screencaps used were posed specifically for cowardly lion's story. Hilarious.

And last but not least:

The Baby Job. A Leverage fic by beanpot (featuring stargazer's Baby Thor!) Even as a straight up story, it's character perfect.

*laughs that two of my fic recs involve babies...well three from a certain point of view*

ETA: Oh, and a pimping rec. Solutions Site has gone through a site redesign. It's still being doctored with new features, but the main page is done and the news blog has been updated (with tags for the main cast for all three shows to make it easier to find tidbits about your favorite actor).

You may want to check out the retrospectives that DeeKay has been doing of all the past seasons of SG-1 and SGA (she calls them 13 for 13, but what they are is a look back at the cast and crew's thoughts about the seasons from back then. It's a kinda neat walk down memory lane.

I've apparently turned into an sg1_five_things monster, because I've done two more of them again this week At least *this* week, I was able to fit each of them in one comment. (And I encourage you to go visit sg1_five_things and read them all, especially the Hammond ones!

Vids seem to be the theme of the day, so...let's roll with it.

First, a very sweet and slow teamy h/c vid by cleothemuse: Don't Give Up. Aw, teamy goodness, all season!

Also, buefo has made SG-1 Goes to the Movies which is a gen team vid (she mentions a possible Daniel bias in the clips, heh) done to the theme songs of some iconic movies. Lots of fun. (Can watch streaming or download).

And last but not least, you guys ARE keeping up with MGM, right? The orientation videos just keep on coming. Latest is about the Lucian Alliance. I think I may wear out the replay on some of them. (Dammit, I may end up buying the SGU Season 1 dvd just for this "extra" if it's on there).

Aurora has had a no good crappy horrible day. What is the solution?! Read good fic!

First a rec of a fic I just randomly discovered wandering the interwebs.

Routine Mission by maranya14
SG-13 intrateam banter and friendly rivalry with their comrades as far as bragging rights. It's DAVE DIXON. How can you not love it?

Secondly, I've had a couple of belated birthday presents (seriously, I'm very overwhelmed by the fandom love I received)

The Interview by sg_betty. A linguist gets recruited to this strange classified program, and now he's cooling his heels post clearance checks waiting for the job interview...it's not quite like he expected. :-)

A Birthday to Remember by thothmes. It's Daniel post Homecoming in Season 7, heading offbase and to his new apartment, but he's forgotten the date. Nice insight into Daniel's mindset, and sweet teamy goodness.

Wow! This has been an amazing birthday for me. Pretty cards and time with family and friends and CHOCOLATE CAKE for dessert.

And lots of lovely birthday wishes from fandom too. Thank you all for the lovely thoughts and shout outs abyssinia, traycer, moonshayde, suzannemarie, astrumporta and beanpot. And even some fandom "presents" too! You know the bestest thing about fandom presents? Everyone can enjoy them!

First off, was an amusing/scary classic SG-1 team fic by sallymn complete with sparkly font birthday wishes! Heh.

And then pepper_field wrote a sequel fic to one of my favorite Sam & Daniel tales ever by writing up Therapeutic Effect.

Co-Libra zats_clear who shares my adoration of Lexa Doig, decided to spin off on that as her inspiration for a birthday caption.

Also in the pic motif, annerbhp outdid herself in SG-1 team awesomesauce picspam of classic team and S9/10 era. See Jack&Daniel in the naughty corner and Teal'c's wrath on DVR sabotage, or Jaffa Jeopardy (OT: One of today's Jeopardy categories was all about October Firsts. Hee!)

Not to be outdone, supplyship had the SG-1 team throw together a birthday party for me complete with Urgo.

And still more fic!
Battlefield by a_loquita is S10 era team on some downtime teamy goodness...but there's a bit of [good natured] conflict going on.

Last but certainly not least, holdouttrout explored Five Beings Who Inhabit the SGC about some of those unsung heroes who work and/or live in the lower levels of Cheyenne Mountain.

And on the dreamwidth side, samantilles made me a few special birthday icons! (I'm using one of them here. :-D

AND someone anonymously gifted me with a year of paid time! (This may have just been coincidental, but I'm not so sure about that). Hmm. I have a small suspect list, but who knows, it may just be some random coincidence. ;-)

And then fignewton, annerb and sg_betty have offered to write me fic based on prompts (they don't realize how dangerous this is. I'm terrible at prompting. When I get inspired it's usually with whole scenes and/or dialogue snippets).

And totally not birthday related, but paian just introduced me to wyomingnot's fanvids...she loves SG-1 AND Leverage. I think I'm in heaven. :-)

(Cross posting this on lj and dw, even though the usernames will probably get mucked up along the way)

Okay, so I got so excited about playing with my new shinies, I ended up making icons, including my first ever animated one! Go me!

, ,


I've got ten of Leverage from Season One. and...um, a LOT of Stargate. Just about all from CotG. (This is the NEW release of Children of the Gods, and a lot I specifically took as new footage, so SPOILERPHOBES BEWARE!!!. I want to do some more leverage in the near future. All are shareable with credit. :-)

Title: Az'heni
Category: Gen; Sam; team friendship; father/daughter (Jacob/Sam)
Rating: Pre-teen/PG
Warnings: None
Genre: Angst; Adventure; Drama; Ficathon Challenge
Spoilers: Very Early Season 3 (after Sam's promotion, pre-Seth)
Summary: A stressful first encounter with some offworld natives leads to more of the unexpected and causes Sam to wrestle with some of her recent past.

Link to original version of Az'heni.

Author's Notes: Written for the all gen samcarterfic the prompter asked for Jacob & Selmak, Sam's teammates, and a white fluffy scarf, with no depressing ending or flashbacks to Sam's childhood.

It's funny. I could think of a nice cute scene with a white fluffy scarf and them having a snowball fight–I fit the punchline of that fight in a scene of the final fic. I could think of a mission they did with Jacob, or Sam and Jacob. But I struggled for a long time to come up with a way to blend all three of these prompts together. Then the idea of the scarf having a symbolic meaning came about. I still tend to think of Az'heni as two parts. Sam rescuing team and member of village, and the Tok'ra/Jacob aspect, but hopefully it blended well enough as a final product.
