Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

He badly needs to make more movies, as I could easily become a big fan. There's just not much to Netflix at this point.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Hey, there's a 17-year-old Jack running around somewhere out there.

Holy shit, you're right. I totally forgot about him. That's even better!

Dude, I need to get into SG1. I just do, don't I?

Fay, check out Wisteria's memories on LJ. She wrote some nice VMars. And someone, Mosca, I think, wrote an incredible Weevil/Logan in the five things style. Oh, and Fox1013 has some good stuff, and really, just wait for Vonnie to come show you where it's all at.

Plei, yes, you do. I don't think I've ever met a series with more fic-bait.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't think I've ever met a series with more fic-bait.

The multiple versions, AUs, deaths, plus ships that are barely mutually exclusive (well, from my poly-fic little angle) do make it fun. Plus, you can draw your own stages and bring in OCs so easily within the show's framework.

Also? Jack O'Neill.

Jack.

t sighs

I like Michael Welsh, but Jack just isn't the same without the grey.

Still I'd totally read a VM/SG-1 crossover that includes a sarcasm-off between mini-Jack and Veronica.

Fay, basically the story behind the mini-Jack is that Jack got cloned by a rogue Asgard. So there's a 17-year-old version of Jack O'Neill going to high school right now, with all the skills, experience, and memories of General Jack O'Neill. One assumes he's legally an emancipated minor, but they don't say so right out.

Excellent fic bait, although I've not seen a lot that's very good taking advantage of the opportunity. Aside from Nos' wacky J/S, which really shouldn't work, but it makes me laugh like a loon.

Okay.

Where's the Daniel/Vala porn?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

OK, someone totally needs to write VM/mini-Jack. Well, not in a shippy way, but as an excuse for a snark-off to end all snark-offs. Having him transfer to Neptune High is pretty minor as crack-addled AU devices go.

Fay, I'd say to stay away from VM fic until you're done with the season, because a lot of fic spoil for the identity of the rapist & murderer, and if at all possible, I'd recommend watching the whole season unspoiled.

I haven't seen that many Logan/Weevil fic despite the rampant slashiness. Come to think of it, I can only count a handful of stories I found memorable, full-stop. There are fic (largely het), but most of them are so-so in quality, and the best ones are set post-finale. (I think all the best slash writers have gone to SGA fandom.)

You're about half-way through the season, right? We have a few stories at BSO, but most of them are spoilery for the finale. Hmmm. Let me see if I can round up some non-spoilery recs.

Silvia Kundera's "This Is Not Ironic". [link] Weevil fic, mostly backstory spec and not spoilery.

Mosca's "Nobody Wants to Uncover". [link] Weevil/Logan set around "The Girl Next Door" (the deeply slashy detention episode.)

Another good post TGND fic: [link]

Hawt and snarktastic AU version of "An Echolls Family Christmas" (the poker episode), "Snark Never Goes Out of Fashion" (Veronica/Logan) [link] One of my favorites.

Fucked-up Veronica/Logan/Duncan (not spoilery post ep. 1x08), "History" [link]

Short but evocative Logan-centric ficlet, "The Scent of Blood Orange" [link]

I like Fox's "If It Makes You Happy" a lot , which is a Veronica/Logan circa 1x10 and is messed up and ouchy in the best possible way: [link]

Hawt Weevil/Logan/Veronica smut, "Sweeten the Pot" (set during the poker episode): [link]

Totally adorable wee fic about Logan and Duncan meeting for the first time in the kindergarten: [link]

"Family Ritual", which is about Aaron and Logan during that scene in "Return of the Kane". It's pretty fucked-up, and altogether believable. [link]

OK, that's as many I can dig up in early episodes-centric fic. As a rule, the LJ community vm_fic (http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=vm_fic) is a good place to go; they catch most stuff that are decently written and characterized, and they ladies who run the community helpfully label the fic by the episode they spoil, which is a huge help if you're not done with the season.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Where's the Daniel/Vala porn?

An excellent question.

If I only had a brain...

There isn't any good stuff, and don't think I haven't been looking. Julie Fortune has made vague promises.

I keep an eye on the LJ community daniel_vala [link] .
