Fandom Snowflake Challenge - Day 9

The Fandom Snowflake Challenge
Day 9: In your own space, create a fanwork. A drabble, a ficlet, or an icon, art or meta or a rec list. A picspam. Something.

I trolled the Day 7 wish lists and found nonisland's request: I'd love to have fic bringing Elizabeth back from the whole replicator plot at a point of your choosing without pairing her with John (or Caldwell). Genfic is totally fine! If genfic is not your thing, my personal favorite (yet tragically rare) Elizabeth pairing is with Radek Zelenka...

This is not quite the happy ending, but in my heart of hearts, I imagine Radek goes to visit often, and they spend much time together and fall in love happily ever after. It's just late and I'm really, really tired.

Catch and Release, an almost-fix-it for S05 E05 Ghost in the Machine. Elizabeth, Radek, and Lorne, and a little sadder than I meant, but I do imagine a happy ending eventually!

(Also coming soonish - a little Murder By Numbers slash for maharet83, hopefully. Getting the movie for a rewatch now.)

Fandom Snowflake Challenge - Day 10

The Fandom Snowflake Challenge
Day 10: Sometimes you run across a creator and just fall in love with what they do. Maybe they're really good at what they do or maybe something about what they create strikes a chord in you. Either way, you end up just inhaling everything they've ever done. And wanting more, of course...*g*

Share a creator with us. It doesn't have to be your absolutely favorite creator, because I don't know about you, but I have a long list of absolute favorites. Maybe pick someone less well-known, or someone who does something unique in terms of media or pairings or ships or fandoms.

Okay, so, this is so tough. Because I would honestly, unreservedly rec half my flist. Names that I had half-written posts for: busaikko (she alone has expanded my fic horizons by whole galaxies), devildoll (as I've said before: the first author in SGA when I jumped in where I read absolutely everything I could get my hands on), anatsuno (if she's reading it, I'm listening to it), chkc (chibis that make me grin like a fool, gorgeous non-chibi art - sometimes with tentacles!)... the list goes on.

But my smaller fandom needs a little love, too, and while there are a bunch of folks in The Losers fandom that I love (omg, lady_krysis and james and katemonkey and JoeLawson, the list goes on for miles), the person whose writing makes me jump up and down with glee is:

storm_petrel

So, I may be a little biased because storm_petrel wrote me By daybreak we'll be gone for ante_up_losers last year. From the notes: This is the story about how Franklin Clay grew up, joined the army, and got a pack, mostly by accident, or, as my sister calls it, being a werewolf means never having to talk about your feelings. I love this story a ridiculous amount. It's Cougar/Jensen, with Roque/Clay sort of, and just, team. I love love love love this story to bits and pieces.

And let us not forget the inspiration for my sga_santa lolcat fic: The first eight don't count. Jensen is a werecat. I fucking love this fic to pieces, and it is right up there with some of my classic SGA comfort fics when I need to curl up on the couch and make myself feel better.

One last rec (though, seriously, just go to storm_petrel and read everything): These things get louder (or, five times the losers met the a-team) because as crossovers go, this is the one I wanted from day one.

So, that's my love letter to storm_petrel. Go, go and read. And if you haven't seen The Losers yet, let these fics convince you - it's totally worth it. <3
