Well, that was fun.

I ended up listing Kodiakke Max's In the Company of Ghosts. Because Farscape needs some love, and it really is an astonishingly brilliant story.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Even the idea of trying to choose makes me twitchy.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Normally requests like that would make me twitchy about choosing but one story came immediately to mind, so I went and listed it. It's not one I casually rec ever but it's That Story.

It's not one I casually rec ever but it's That Story.

I wonder if it's the story I'm thinking of.

I nominated Yahtzee's "Goodnight Moon." There are quite a few stories I'd pick over it as my favorites, but I've never run across anything better written.

3 day-old coffee: I don't know if anyone besides me is still eager for good SGA fic, but I recently read "Sheppard's Law" by Cesperanza and was bowled over by it: [link]

It's tragic, Consuela, and novel-length, but it really made me see fanfic in a new way. I've always been sad that I've not been able to give the author props for it. (Older archive, before my time)

Anyone who likes epic AU totally angsty and whumpy SPN should know that Oselle finally finished Lazarus Comes Forth. It's an alternative version of how Dean gets out of hell, and it's quite spectacular. She's Oselle on LJ, and the top post should have all the links.
