I have about a dozen stories I want to write in SGA, mostly because they address issues I don't get to read in SGA fic, but none of them have gone anywhere, particularly not now that The Devil Wears Prada has taken over my brain (and I've stopped watching the show. That might have something to do with it, too).
The top three are (in no particular order):
1) the college sports AU, spawned by the barista race kerfuffle a while ago. Ronon is a basketball player, John a golfer, Teyla runs track, etc. Race is present in college sports in a very visible way (and also I love sports), so I thought it would make an interesting story.
2) the policy one, stemming from the recent discussion in my journal about foreign policy in SGA, where people are held accountable for their actions (it turns, out you can't actually break the Geneva Convention and not have to pay the price! You also can't let the US run everything without political consequences back home!) I can already tell this story is a lot of wish fulfillment, both in terms of what I want from SGA and in terms of what I want from my government (and also from the international community).
3) the one where Teyla and Elizabeth are dating, and Teyla and John are close friends and on the same team, and Elizabeth is John's boss, and they all act like adults when they have to deal with these things. This is the one I want to write the most; it's also the one I've thought about the least.
