Stargate Recs: Part two!
Apr. 1st, 2005 01:32 amI've updated my list of Stargate Recs with 24 new stories. Which means we're approaching 75+?
Hmm. Maybe I should rename my list.
50+ (or more) Stargate Recs
I was lazy (well, busy) the first go around, and so posted just the link, author name, and a bit of the story. This time I give you a real rec with a brief explanation for each story.
I feel like a laundry detergent ad. 50+ Recs! And now you get... 20% more in every bottle!
As a recap:
What I look for in Stargate fanfic:
- Jack-dialogue that has the appropriate snap; Jack has to be dead on.
- a Daniel that's brilliant, solid, and not remotely feminized
- storylines that have at least some probability in the series (unless it's a farce), and deal with the Don't Ask, Don't Tell and Chain of Command issues
- Humor, dammit! At least a wry edge to the angst.
- Jack/Daniel, and a little Gen. Usually.
- Hot, believable (and usually that means awkward) sex. (The Steak Series is the best for this.)
- Plot is nice, though not required. A believable alien race is even better.
- No Sam-Abuse, and I prefer the other characters be well-rounded.
