Stargate stories I enjoyed

[icarus]

wildernessguru and I were driving back from dropping the Puppy off at his ship, Christmas music tinkling in the stereo. We steered around clouds of fog that made the city both strange and mysterious. Ordinary streetlights glowed and shopwindows looked festive and playful. He grinned at me relaxing in the seat next to him, taking in the sights with an easy cheer I haven't felt in months.

"I feel like I have my girlfriend back."

He does, too.

I've been asked for Stargate recs as I find good stories:

Past Imperfect by widget285
Wonderful description of the nature of memory, as Daniel Jackson's memories slowly return after he's 'descended', transforming his relationship with Jack. Introspective and gentle.

Pavlov by Kalimyre
Now this aliens made them do it story I believe. Hot sex, believable and original alien scenario. Ending's a bit odd, but I really enjoyed it.

The Steak Series by Keiko Kirin
The most believable and convincing Jack/Daniel story out there. This is my all time, hands down favourite. Powerful, sensual, hyper-masculine, and well as peaceful. The awkward way they get together is hilarious, and wildernessguru found it extremely frustrating, "oh yeah, this is so like them." Alien adventures that vary from the eerie to the absurd.


Now. If only my Jack/Daniel stories would cooperate. They've all grown a little stale since I've had to put them on hold.

Quercus is brilliant, but the titles are so depressing that I can't bring myself to read them most of the time. When I'm feeling low, it's hard to open a fic entitled "Crushed Under The Wheel Of Bitter Despair," especially since Quercus has crappy summaries and no info. I'm saving most of those for when I run out of "known quantity" fics.

I love Anais stories, and I really need to rec them (oh dear, I'll just have to re-read them first...). My favorite of hers is a simple one: Kawoosh!

Then there's this writer, I'm not sure if you've heard of her, but she's written these wonderful, playful sexy and intuitive fics. A couple favorites of mine are If A Tree Falls (http://www.area52hkh.net/asg/grrrl/treefalls.php) and The Space Within (http://www.area52hkh.net/asg/grrrl/spacewithin.php), but really I'd recommend anything by her. :D

Oh, you. ::blushes:: You're very sweet. And kind. And sweet. Thank you.

You are so right about Quercus's titles! But they're so beautiful. The ones I mentioned, plus "What Rough Beast" aren't depressing at all. They're very interesting, and lovely in a non-smutty kind of way.

And..mmmm.. "Kawoosh" is damn good, too.
