Link: V is for Victory
Why This Must Be Read: Set in Episode: s07e02 Homecoming, this fic is a somber missing scene between a newly-returned Daniel and Teal'c. I love the way their friendship is shown and how accepting Teal'c is of whoever Daniel may be now, regardless of if he regains his memories, regardless of if he is exactly the same. It's a quiet moment and beautifully done.

Camera Obscura (by Mandysbitch) (Explicit)

Why This Must Be Read: it's Earth Christmastime, but on Atlantis it's mid-summer and the Australians have organized a barbeque. This is one of Mandysbitch's sweeter stories in which the boys get tipsy and end up in bed. It's hot and steamy, a nice slice-of-life, and soft-centered. Lovely writing, and a feelgood ending.

Author's Summary:
The (probably) complete works in my Clone!Verse series, all in one convenient location.
Why This Must Be Read:
I couldn't resist rec'ing this form of Jack O'Neill. It's clone!Jack with a clone!Sam together, starting in high school and going through adulthood. There's even a fun crossover with Warehouse 13 in the middle.
The entire series of ficlets are fluffy and happy. A perfect read when you need a reason to smile and laugh.
I'm going to put my hopes into that 'ish' part of complete-ish because we all need new reasons to smile.

The Perception of Control, by knightshade (E)
Jun. 2nd, 2025 10:47 amnuh_s posting in stargateficrecShow: SG-1
Rec Category: Teal'c
Characters: Sam Carter, Teal'c, Daniel Jackson, Jack O'Neill
Pairings: Sam Carter/Daniel Jackson/Teal'c
Categories: Multi, Hurt/Comfort, Angst
Warnings: Torture
Author's Journal: unknown
Author's Website: knightshade's Ao3
Link: The Perception of Control
Why This Must Be Read: I'm rarely one to go in for porn-with-plot (When I drink water, I drink water; when I drink whiskey, I drink whiskey), but this fic has a great balance with the whump, angst, and threesome featuring excellent characterization. Told from Carter's POV, the fic features her, Teal'c, and Daniel taken prisoner while Jack has (we hope) escaped.
Teal'c's characterization especially is an absolute treat. It captures his personality well, at one point describing him, "He did everything with such tightly restrained, but visible passion".

Characters: Rodney McKay, John Sheppard, Ronon Dex, Teyla Emmagan

Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply

Link: on purpose
Author’s summary: The thing is, he hadn’t really meant to say it. Not then. Not there. He hadn’t really ever even thought about it before, not in such specific terms. So, it’s as much of a shock to him as it is to anyone else.
or, Rodney's trying so hard and John just doesn't get it.
Why This Must Be Read: This is such a beautiful story—everyone who’s ever enjoyed a true love read should go for it! It shows us Rodney in a light far removed from his well-known and accepted behavior, revealing his most endearing sides: quiet, loving, cautious, thoughtful, and deeply romantic. You’ll suffer with him as he bears the pain of an oblivious John, who just can’t see the woods for the trees. But you’ll also witness the wonders that true love is capable of—and the happiness, and ultimately, the fulfillment it brings.
The way it’s written—in a kind of reverse 5+1 structure—feels like a countdown, ignition, and finally, lift-off for the rocket of love that is McShep

Characters: Dr. Biro/John Sheppard
Categories: F/M
Words: 16,752
Content notes: no archive warnings apply. From the author's notes - "This story contains a kitchen sink's worth of kinks, including: cybersex, D/s, bondage, assplay, pervertibles, mirrors, slings, rimming, autofellatio, and pegging."
Author on DW: n/a
Author's Website: trophic on AO3
Link: Full Disclosure on AO3
Why This Must Be Read: This romance is set in an Atlantis where clever programmers have created a virtual environment where people can hook up via avatars, and where Biro (Valerie) and Sheppard (Dec) have an enjoyable dom/sub relationship. Biro is a quirky and funny dominatrix, still her somewhat geeky, socially anxious self from canon, but able to use the VE in deliciously creative ways which Dec very much appreciates. The story's well structured with Valerie and Dec initially anonymous, then having to navigate Biro finding out Dec's RL identity and dealing with the consequences, including whether or not their relationship can work in the real world. There are some interesting explorations of self-image, with Sheppard's inner self way more geeky and uncool than his public persona. A fun read - hot as hell and remarkably charming.
