fic: Genes In A Twist - Part One [PG-13]

TITLE: Genes In A Twist
SUMMARY: Sheppard's team encounter a few difficulties while off world. It's a brand new day in Atlantis. With no mistakes in it. Yet.
CATEGORY: Gen, humour, genderbender.
TOTAL WORDCOUNT: ~18,000
NOTES: Uh, I don't know where this plotbunny came from, but it ate a week of my life! I was hoping to have this done for my 1st Anniversary, but unfortunately the bunny wouldn't move quick enough - although I wish I could write original fiction this fast!

The link below goes to sga_flashfic and the 'This Is Not Happening' challenge, but the rest of the story will probably be posted on my LJ - I'm just waiting for approval from the sga_flashfic mods.

Thanks, dzurlady and madjm for the betas!

fic rec: "Fractured" by Alli Snow

TITLE: Fractured
AUTHOR: allisnow

I love Alli's longfics, especially the later ones. (And the shortfics aren't too bum either!) She always manages to fuck with your mind in her longer fics and it's always a thing of great beauty. This story is as much a character study of John-in-the-gaps as it is a look at the Ancients and their modus operandi, although the initial premise is heartbreaking when you think about the kind of man John Sheppard is and what's been done/happening to him.

Besides, Carson/Laura-in-the-background squee. (Okay, so I squeed.) You know you want it!

fic rec: Queen by Xanthe

TITLE: Queen
AUTHOR: xanthestories
SUMMARY: Sex or death...
PAIRING: John/Teyla
WHY?: Because it's a realistic scenario for John/Teyla sex, fairly in-character depiction, doesn't presume them being in love but still works in emotional depth and affection (although I personally feel the end is a bit sappy, but I'm le cynic extraordinaire when it comes to sweet endings), and, yes, the sex is hawt.

ps. saeva, I think I love you! You need to ask more people to write John/Teyla!
