The Taste of Apples and its sequel Sacrificial Drift by Auburn Adult The first story is a team story, back in the good ole Ford days, and the second story is McShep. The team discovers a truly unique alien life form that causes them all to bond together in an incredibly cool and ultimately disturbing way. This fic takes the team bond to an extreme, but not in a sexual way, which is kind of refreshing. Instead, they are able to share with each other even more intimately than that. The second part of this fic deals with the ramifications of having that connection between them all severed. This is really, really different from most of the fic that's out there. It doesn't feel like it's retreading the same cliched ground; it feels new.

Unsingable Name by [livejournal.com profile] 30toseoul Parrish/Lorne Adult I absolutely love this fic. It's short and like a gut punch. So much of SGA fanfic elides the fact that many of these guys are MILITARY--that their behavior is constrained by all these rules and regulations and that even if Pegasus is a whole 'nother ballpark, those rules and regulations have been internalized over a long period of time and would be difficult to let go of. How completely sucktastic would it be to have to choose, over and over again, between your heart and your career? And how sickening would it be to know that if you do follow your heart, you must always keep that relationship a secret? Lorne's anger and resignation and despair are magnificent here. And Sheppard's characterization is spot on.

Sweat by [livejournal.com profile] justabi Ronon/Rodney(Teyla) Adult This fic has such an interesting and exciting take on Ronon. This is Ronon at his most feral and his most selfish--cause let's face it, you don't survive for seven years alone and on the run from the Wraith without cultivating a sense of selfishness. This is so disturbingly erotic; I feel sorry for Rodney, who is being duped in ways so subtle that he has no chance of discovering them. Reading this feels like touching a live wire--all shock and explosive sparks and the distant knowledge that somewhere you can't feel right now, this is all hurting quite a bit.
