The All Fanwork Gateverse Extravaganza

lunabee34I just finished rewatching SGA with my daughter and was reminded all over again how much I love all things Gateverse. To that end, I would like to host a low-pressure fanwork fest focused on SG-1, SGA, and SGU.
How The All Fanwork Gateverse Extravaganza Works
1. All fanworks allowed! This means icons, artworks, gifsets, fic, rec sets, meta, vids and any other fannishness you want to share.
2. All ratings and genres of fanworks allowed! This means het, slash, and gen; this means Adult and rated G; this means AU and cross-over and fusion and Gateverse actor RPF; this means kinky and vanilla; this means drabbles and long fics.
3. All incarnations of the Gateverse allowed! This means SG-1, SGA, SGU, actor RPF, and movieverse.
4. Please respond to this post with fanwork prompts. In the subject line, indicate what kind of fanwork you are prompting for and for which show. (Examples: Subject line: Meta Prompt; SGA or Subject Line: Fic Prompt; SGU) Remember, prompts may differ between the LJ/DW versions of this post, so you might want to check them both.
5. You do not have to sign up for a prompt. You do not have to create a fanwork to leave a prompt. Everyone is free to leave as many prompts as desired with no obligation to fill any of them.
6. If you get inspired by a prompt, create a fanwork and post it wherever you like. Drop a link to your fanwork in this post under the prompt that inspired it just like you would on a kinkmeme or other kind of comment fest. Please indicate if your fanwork requires any warnings. At the end of May, I will make a master post linking to all the prompt fills for easy readability.
7. You can also link to any Gateverse fanwork you create during this time *not* inspired by a prompt to this post. Sometimes inspiration doesn't quite fit the dictates of a prompt, but those fanworks have a home here, too!
9. Please promote this in your personal journals and in any communities you think might be interested. I think it would be wonderful if we could get the fannish momentum rolling in the Gateverse again.
To Recap:
Sometime between now and the end of May, play in the Gateverse sandbox and then come and tell me about it, pretty please. LOL
ETA: we now have banners courtesy of the very talentedmific!!!!! Many thanks. :)

Re: Fic Prompt, SGA
Date: 2013-04-26 02:58 pm (UTC)I am so, so sorry to have made you worry. Mr. Havoc's chest was still hurting from his car accident, and I've been either dealing with the insurance for that, or taking him to the hospital so they could make sure he didn't have a fractured sternum. So I've been ridiculously busy.
But, yes! I loved the one I got to read! And the other will be a great treat for me when I'm on my break today. I'm glad you have had a productive time with it. I thought maybe the flow issues were related to your unfamiliarity with writing the characters; that happens to me a lot, anyway. And your OCs were very well thought out personalities in their own right, which I appreciated!
The Wraith Queen gave me some chills, especially the way she came specifically to have a confrontation with Elizabeth. And, of course, I adore Kate's POV in anything.

I haven’t yet been able to look at Second Chances without a hopelessly biased eye yet (I often get a little down for a few days about stories I’m uncertain about – for instance if they happen to be in a new fandom. Completely irrational, but there you go) but in retrospect, I feel like I tried to exposit a little too hard, given all the funky setting stuff that I had in my head. Though never having written an Elizabeth/Kate relationship before probably didn’t help me find a good baseline for it.
In all honesty, I’m not really sure I can blame the Queen. Yes, please resurrect a legendary destroyer of Wraith in my home, and then don’t tell her about me immediately. I am completely sure that this will cause absolutely *no* hilarious hijinks.
Plus, you know, the more obvious reasons for her to turn up.
