Being Human is so damn good. And if I hadn't been sold by Mitchell and George's chemistry after, like, five minutes of interaction, the last scene in the bar, with the three of them just hanging out and being so, well, normal, would've bought me whole. It's just good and funny and a little bit silly (George bouncing around the apartment! Cleaning rotas! Hufflepuff! Hee!) and yet, oh Mitchell and oh George and Annie, they're so vulnerable and hurting. It's brilliant.

Anyway, am slowly converting Becca to the Stargate side of the force after realizing that, really, SGA is to my fandom life as Discworld is to my real life - it's the good old staple I always return to when I'm not entirely sure what I want to read. Which may mean that I more committed than I should be to something where I've only seen four or so episodes of the source material. Ho, hum.

So, for Becca, a small recslist:


MVP - Really good look at John from both the military's and, of course, Rodney's perspective. Also just lovely. Mmm.

Weapons of Some Distraction - John and Rodney and feeling out of place back on earth. They are very, very much guys in this.

A Beautiful Lifetime Event - A staple of SGA fic is 'accidents with alien tech'. This is an excellent take on that, featuring John, Rodney and the kid they raise.

Face Value - Rodney becomes telepathic, except he can't hear John's thoughts. Really well-rounded story with lots of character cameos (RADEK!) and my favourite description of being in love. Ever.

After Thousand Aves Told - A Stargate ghost story which is all about how we are remembered.

Bang - John is not being abused. No, he really does just keep walking into doors.


And, on the Alternate Universe front, I reccomend:
101 Ways to Get Lucky in Love - where Rodney needs a wife and John is a dating guru.

Academic - John is an English professor! With his own facebook group. Obviously, this is awesome.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] cesperanza is very much recommended for insight into, well, SGA fandom.



Hope you enjoy, Bean!
