Title: Noel (on AO3)
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: Teen
Pairing/Characters: Sam Carter/Jack O'Neill, Cassie Fraiser, Daniel Jackson, Teal'c, Vala Mal Doran, Cameron Mitchell
Timeline: Post-series
Genre: Fluff. Fluffy holiday fluff.
Summary: Sam thinks that's the sort of thing someone might have mentioned to her in any of the sixteen or so emails they'd sent her in the last twenty-four hours. Hey, Sam, we’re taking over your house Christmas Eve. Hope that’s okay. Love and kisses, SG-1.

A/N: For the 2014 Advent Calendar at sj_everyday. Thanks to [personal profile] ziparumpazoo for the completely last-minute read-through – all remaining mistakes are because I am a shameful procrastinator. :)

1) My Jacob Carter rewatch status = have successfully gotten Jacob turned into a Tok'ra. Which means that next up is Show and Tell after which I will have to talk about some things. I already know this. *g* Though one thought I had watching Tok'ra 1&2 was along the lines of 'a whole lot of Earth's fate totally depends on George Hammond having accurate judgment when it comes to whether any particular batshit crazy idea SG-1 has is the good kind of crazy or the bad kind.'

2) Writing this week (*) and it being the busy, busy month of May = nostalgia week for ficrecs, because I am not reading much and trying to rattle through bookmarks on multiple devices and sites for 'things I have meant to rec but haven't gotten around to yet' is apparently too much effort. I freely admit to cribbing this list from one I already posted a loooooong time ago as a comment somewhere (except updated for AO3 links where I can find them, because this list is so old AO3 didn't exist yet). So. Sam/Jack cabin fic recs:

Concentric Unto Thee (8752 words) by gabolange. Stargate SG-1, Sam/Jack, M. Her attempts at normality have never worked before, and Jack won't stand for any attempts to apply the logic of command to their relationship. Really wonderful, grown-up Sam and Jack working out how to share a life together.

Scenes from a Weekend by karma_aster. Stargate SG-1, Sam/Jack, Teen. Lovely Threads-related cabin fluff with just a touch of bittersweetness.

Biting the Bullet by ijemanja. Stargate SG-1, Sam/Jack, PG-13. Five times Jack O'Neill asked Samantha Carter out, and one time he didn't have to. I'm cheating a little on this one. It's actually a five things, with five Sam/Jack scenes from different AUs, and only the last one is at Jack's cabin. But it's funny and sweet and the characterization is just terrific.

Gravity Sings (7081 words) by stargazercmc. Stargate SG-1, Sam/Jack, M. General Jack O'Neill headed west five months after the world ended. Apocafic. Jack and Sam try to make some kind of normal life after the world ends. I love Jack in this fic especially.

Fantasy (562 words) by a_loquita (which also has a timestamp sequel, Only Sense Left). Stargate SG-1, Sam/Jack, G (sequel is rated T). It’s time for Sam to make a choice. Short but really beautiful; the sort of fic that makes the setting almost another character in the story.

Land of Sky Blue Waters by sam938. Stargate SG-1, Sam/Jack, PG-13. Thor doesn’t beam Jack up until a week later. Sam accepts the offer to go fishing, but things don’t necessarily work out the way they’re planned. A what-if AU where Sam goes on that fishing trip with Jack (but it's mostly UST, not what you're thinking at all! hee). I like this because they both get to be smart, and I think it's a good look at what they have in common and what they don't and why they still work.

There are like 80,000 other fics that could be added to a cabin fic rec list but I am resisting the urge because things to doooooooo. If anyone felt like suggesting a theme for next week's list I wouldn't complain because I do not think next week will be any less busy.

(*) Dear people out there who write X thousand words per day, I remain simultaneously envious and in awe of you. Two days ago I wrote 900 (!!!) words. Yesterday I netted about 100 new words after stab-stab-deleting about a third of that 900. This is an example of REALLY PRODUCTIVE for me, the kind of really productive that means things like my household chores aren't getting done. Writing more than that is very very rare for me and generally results in HELLO ARE YOU STILL ALIVE?? emails/texts. lol.
mrspollifax: (Default)
Have been away from keyboard most of the week, but look! I am posting these two weeks in a row. Yay me. ;) Someday I might get around to reading and reccing things that are more recent than this? Maybe? Hah. I am perpetually behind, fannishly speaking.

Oh, hey - speaking of being perpetually behind, I am finally getting around to watching all those Marvel movies. Like, so far I have watched Iron Man, Iron Man 2, and Thor. I'm going to catch up with the real world in a few more months, maybe. *g*

Okay. Ficrecs:

Rumours of my Demise (4012 words) by cupiscent Star Wars Prequel Trilogy, Padmé Amidala/Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mature. Padme Amidala cannot live in a galaxy where he has come to be what he is. Obi-Wan Kenobi spends most of his time talking with ghosts. Warnings: Major Character Death. An AU what-if set after Revenge of the Sith that scratched an itch I had after my kids re-watched all six movies over the course of several rainy, yucky days. Spare and melancholy and really lovely.

for just one taste of this (1843 words) by nextgreatadventure. Stargate SG-1, Sam/Jack, Mature. After that, though, things got tricky and dangerous because they pushed a little more and went a little (a lot) further off that deep end, and soon it was the two of them alone in the empty barracks and this wasn’t wrong, was it, just sitting side by side in the darkness? A season 4/Divide and Conquer-era 'what if they didn't actually manage to keep it all locked away' story. Slow and hot and while you can certainly feel a tiny undercurrent of all the ways this could end badly sometimes in the future, this story is more about the love and devotion underneath the lust and the mutual bad decisions. Also did I mention hot? :)

Nefarious Playwrights Are To Blame For My Life (2847 words) by a_loquita. Stargate: SG-1, Sam/Jack, Teen. I swear sometimes that there is someone writing my life, specifically, an omnipotent being that's sick and twisted and has got it in for Jack O'Neill. Okay, so I might have accidentally-on-purpose re-read a fair amount of a-loquita's fic recently, but which to rec today? There are many, many excellent choices. But I had not read this one in *ages*, so here you go. I love the Jack O'Neill voice in this story, the trademark humor but with much more serious stuff going on underneath. (Also naked and UST are really quite difficult to pull off in the same fic like this, I'm just saying.) :)

Title: Most Everyone is Mad Here (also on AO3)
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: Teen
Pairing/Characters: Sam Carter/Jack O'Neill, Cassie Fraiser
Timeline: Post-series, present day
Genre: Humor. Fluff. Possibly crack. Also cats are aliens.
Summary: When Jack opens the door to find Cassie standing on his front porch, loaded down with a cat and an outlandish amount of stuff, his first thought is something like What the hell? Sequel of sorts to Nine Lives or Thereabouts.

A/N: For [profile] a_loquita. Thanks to [personal profile] ziparumpazoo as usual, and to [profile] a_loquita because I made her help me figure something out without telling her what she was helping me for (I am mean like that). *g*

Title: The Larks Still Bravely Singing Fly
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: Teen
Pairing: Sam Carter/Jack O'Neill
Characters: Jack O'Neill, Sam Carter, Cassie Fraiser, SG-1 in its various incarnations, Hank Landry, President Hayes, and a smattering of OCs that canon was not kind enough to provide me with. And possibly the kitchen sink.
Timeline: Now-ish. Post-Series, after SGA season 5.
Summary: Because that's what you do if you're The Man. When you send men and women out to take the risks you're no longer taking yourself, you'd better damn well keep the light burning at home.

A/N:Many, many thanks to [personal profile] ziparumpazoo for cheerleading and beta reading and listening to me natter on about this fic all the time.

So a while ago I sketched out an outline for a "five first times" Sam and Jack fic, which I admit was completely an excuse to write a bunch of cliché AU ficlets. And then I started to actually write a couple of them and had a 'why must you want to be actual stories on your own instead of being the little bitty five things I want you to be??' kind of a moment and shoved them into a corner. Occasionally I pulled them out and scowled at them, but they still wouldn't behave.

And then this month I wrote this story for the Advent Calendar, and it was only yesterday as I was working on the very final edits that I realized I had accidentally written the first of the five things without meaning to. Yes, my brain apparently cribs from itself without knowing it. So I am declaring it a series in advance, because I do mean to write the other ones, but I am making no promises as to exactly when.

Anyway. Enough procrastinating, have some fic. Happy holidays, y'all.

Title: Look Again Into Your Heart
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: Mature (barely, though)
Pairing: Sam Carter/Jack O'Neill
Timeline: Post-Series, after SGA season 5
Word Count: ~7000
Summary: It's not that cold, not by the standard of some of the places she's been in the last decade or so of her life, but then again, she's not used to braving the weather in heels and an evening dress.

A/N: Written for the 2012 Advent Calendar on [livejournal.com profile] sj_everyday. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] a_loquita for beta reading and general fabulousness.

On the off chance that anyone around here did not do so already: go read this immediately. Only preferably not when there are people around you, because otherwise you are going to have to explain why you are laughing so hard you are crying.

No idea where this came from. But here you go anyway. :)

Title: Castles in the Sky

Word Count: ~900
Summary: Touching her still seems like a dream sometimes.

Hard drive archaeology thing #2. Secrets is one of my favorite episodes, so I'm a little surprised that this is the only bit of fic I've written anywhere near it.

Title: Fading Light
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: Teen
Characters/Pairing: Sam/Jack UST
Season/Episode: 2x09 Secrets
Word Count: ~900
Summary: Missing scene from Secrets, before Sam, Jack, and Hammond go back to the SGC.

A/N: Requires a bit of handwaving of the episode timeline, honestly.

mrspollifax: (sj dress)
Serious hard drive archaeology going on over here. Been very interesting in terms of thinking about writing and stuff, and I might natter on about that at some point, but for now - Hey! I found a couple of teeny tiny things from like four years ago that are finished but for some reason I never posted. I vaguely recall this one was written for a prompt, but heck if I remember whose prompt or where at or why I never put it up anywhere. Here you go. :)

Title: Sesquicentennial
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: All Ages
Characters/Pairing: Sam/Jack (UST or friendship, reader's choice I think)
Season/Timeline: Major Carter-era. That's all I've got.
Word Count: ~560
Summary: "Carter, are you sure we’re up high enough? I’m really not in the mood to go swimming today."

Undusting the writing brain. Also, y'all, I have been chasing down my Stargate muse. I may have actually seen her around once or twice recently. Tumblr is like chocolate for muses (and also like a rabbit hole I get lost down occasionally, but that's a different story). So many pretty gifs and pictures and now I have had to rewatch bits of several season 4 episodes and I am in over my head in flaily flaily Sam/Jack glee completely out of nowhere. No words to speak of yet, but hey, who knows!

Anyway. I think I saw this one most recently with [livejournal.com profile] anr.

Tell me about a story I haven't written, and I'll give you between one and three sentences from that story.

Just stick with the pairings/people you know I'll actually write, pretty please. *g*

This is another ages-ago-someone-gave-me-a-prompt fic. For [livejournal.com profile] ziparumpazoo, prompt at the end.

Title: House Blend Café
Rating: Teen
Characters/Pairing: Sam & Jack, mostly friendship, UST if you squint
Genre: Implied apocafic, I think?
Word Count: ~1700

Summary: Three days ago they'd run out of the last of the coffee from Earth.

mrspollifax: (sj shroud)
More stuff from my very old timestamp meme. This one was for [livejournal.com profile] meoinya, who requested something after the end of The Embers Burn On. I'm pretty sure this fic is much tamer than what she was trying to get me to write. *g*

Title: Rest a While Longer
Rating: Teen
Characters/Pairing: Sam/Jack
Season/Episode: Season 9/10
Word Count: ~1400

Summary: Normal houses, normal people, normal lives. Not a bad walk at all. Just more alien to her than any number of planets on the far-distant end of the galaxy. Timestamp meme sequel to The Embers Burn On.

A/N: Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] ziparumpazoo for the usual handholding. :)

mrspollifax: (s/j hugs)
First, and most importantly, a ficrec. Because [livejournal.com profile] a_loquita wrote me fic! Sam/Jack fic! Really fabulous Sam/Jack fic, though of course that is a given considering the source. *g* The fic is The Plan, and it is cabin fic (squee) and you should all go read it right now because it is wonderful. And also because I said so. ;)

Second, things teevee. And other stuff I shall ramble about under here .... )
mrspollifax: (sj 1969)
Dialogue-only fic. Basically just to see if I could, I think. Also for the latest creative free for all challenge at [livejournal.com profile] sj_everyday.

Title: Conduct Unbecoming
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: Teen
Characters/Pairing: Sam/Jack
Season/Episode: Sometime after season 8
Word Count: ~500
Summary: "Okay, Carter. That's it. I'm drawing the line."
Genre: Fluff. Humor. Silliness.

A/N: Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] a_loquita for beta duty!

mrspollifax: (sj dress)
See, someday I might finish that timestamp meme after all. This is for [livejournal.com profile] supplyship, who asked for something after A Cappella, set after the episode Line in the Sand. Though you don't really have to read the first fic to understand this one at all, so possibly I failed the point of the meme? *g*

Title: Tune Without Words
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rating: All Ages
Characters/Pairing: Sam/Jack
Season/Episode: Post-ep for 10x12, Line in the Sand
Word Count: ~1300
Summary: Somehow, Jack thought he'd know when she opened her eyes. Loosely, a sequel for A Cappella, set after the episode Line in the Sand.

A/N: Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] ziparumpazoo for shoving me in the right direction on this after I'd sat on it for too long. Also for beta reading. :)

mrspollifax: (sj dress)
I have a few things I really need to admit are not ever going to get finished so I can get them off my hard drive. Here is one of them!

So, eons ago I posted a timestamp meme because I wanted to make a_loquita do one too, and managed to do some of the prompts but left several hanging out there incomplete. Mostly they were trying to be more story than they were supposed to be (it was a timestamp meme!!) but all of them ran into some snag or other. This particular request was by [livejournal.com profile] codo1019, for something after A Cappella. Which, by the way, is the first fic I ever finished and posted anywhere, and I might be a teensy bit neurotic about it. Like, I can't actually make myself re-read it, which makes writing a timestamp meme response for it kind of complicated. *g* No, seriously, I just tried to make this one into a longer story when it really wasn't meant to be, so I am posting this snippet and calling it done.

The Silence after the Song
Sam/Jack, Angst, UST, not at all my usual fluff.

The colonel catches her in the parking lot... )
mrspollifax: (Default)
I wrote this for [livejournal.com profile] ziparumpazoo, and I'd like to blame her for the whole thing except that really wouldn't be fair to her. *g* Anyway, I meant it to be commentfic, but it decided to be too long for that, so here it is in all its ridiculousness. Zip, you should probably just consider this early birthday fic because the chances of my finishing anything else by then are miniscule indeed.

Title: The Many Adventures, etc., or Jack O'Neill vs. The Hundred Acre Wood
Rating: All Ages
Characters/Pairing: Sam/Jack
Season/Episode: Post-series
Word Count: ~2100
Summary: He could see where this was going, and it was very, very bad.
Genre: Fluffity fluff. Humor. Quite possibly crack.

A/N: Unbeta'd. So among other things, any places that I missed when I changed the tense are my own silly old fault.

Jack was pulling on his shoes when he heard it. Tiny, muffled, and two rooms away ... )
mrspollifax: (s/j hugs)
I thought that I failed utterly to do a birthday thank you post because I have been insanely busy the last few weeks, but actually it turns out it was because my birthday was still being celebrated (unbeknownst to me). So, belated thanks for all the nice birthday wishes, and let me link you to two really fabulous fics that two really lovely ladies wrote for me, just in case there's anyone who didn't see them elsewhere.

1) Five Things the SGC IT Department Knows That Nobody Knows They Know by [livejournal.com profile] ziparumpazoo. Gen, humor, rated G. If knowledge is power, the IT professionals in Stargate Command must be the ones who are really in charge, right? I have been nagging Zip to write me this fic for ages and she definitely didn't disappoint. Glimpses of some of our favorite SG-1 characters and even a tiny SGU cameo. #2 is now part of my personal Bill Lee canon-in-my-head.

2) That's when we fell in love, but not the first time by [livejournal.com profile] supplyship. S/J, action/adventure, rated PG. Something's gone wrong at Stargate Command, and our favorite heroes are busy doing what they always do, no matter what. A lovely moment with some S/J touchstones that feel familiar-but-new in the very best way.

(And hey, while I'm here: a super-secret message to [livejournal.com profile] a_loquita and [livejournal.com profile] ziparumpazoo, who for some reason will still beta my fic even though I resolutely ignore their attempts to delete these Very Important punctuation marks from my sentences. Ode to the Semicolon! See, I'm not the only crazy one. *g*)
