Happy SG-1 Gen Fic Day!

[fignewton]

It's Gen Fic Day!

We're celebrating SG-1 and gen today! Comment here with links to new fic and older fic, recs, meta, picspam, vids: anything, as long as it's gen and related to SG-1. Spur-of-the-moment commentfic is welcome, too. :)

(Not sure what this all means? Check out the Gen Fic Day Index to get an idea of previous celebrations.)

Shameless self-promotion is cheerfully encouraged, although if you've linked to your own story on a previous Gen Fic Day, we ask you to choose another fic so that others can enjoy some variety. :) The exception is Cameron Mitchell, today's unofficial theme - even if you've linked to your own Cam fic in the past, we'd love to see it here again. Here's a tex tbox for you to cut-and-paste for your convenience in commenting:

<b>New fanworks:</b> <b>Recs:</b> <b>Shameless self-promotion:</b>

If you're an Alphabet Soup writer, don't forget to do THREE things: Post your fic on your own journal, comment here with a link to your journal, and e-mail me a copy of your story so I can collate it into the full anthology. If you've already e-mailed me your story, don't forget to post it and link to it, too! Complete guidelines are here.

Have fun, everyone, and enjoy the gen squee!

Hee, I remember that one! The freespace from sg_fignewton Birthday Soup. :D

(Well, that's the link to the review, but the review includes the links to the fics, so...)

Y is for YouTube

Y is for YouTube

It's the nature of the internet. You surf, you click, you follow so many links you're not sure how you wind up wherever it is you find yourself. Cam starts out his Sunday morning reading the front webpage of his hometown newspaper. Maybe something there made him nostalgic (go figure) and so he searches YouTube for some favorite old songs. Nearly an hour later, coffee mug long empty, Cam clicks a vid link almost at random.

He nearly falls out of his chair.

That's Jackson. Different glasses, longer hair, more-than-mildly inebriated. Singing karaoke. And that's not even the wildest part.

He's not alone. There's Teal'c. In a cowboy hat. Getting down.

"I am hallucinating," Cam announces to himself. He looks accusingly at his empty mug. He looks at the monitor. He hears a very familiar voice coming through his speakers.

"Shake it, Daniel!"

"Ah!" Cam looks to see who posted the video. He busts out laughing. "Astrosammiekins?"

He's still laughing as he cranks up the volume and leans back, hands clasped behind his head, to enjoy the show.

Won't you take me to… Funkytown?

Recs:

A Pleasant Road by wishfulaces. (Cam and Teal'c, 2300 words, teen, spoilers for Continuum): He would’ve taken Teal’c, he knew. If he’d had the chance.

Five things Jack O'Neill never told Cameron Mitchell (because some things you have to learn on your own) by troyswann

Team by pipisafoat. Summary: Now he's really a member of SG-1.

Mnemonic by stringertheory. Summary: "A memory is what is left behind when something happens and does not completely unhappen." - Edward de Bono.


Shameless self-promotion:

Five Reasons Mitchell Can't Call Daniel 'Daniel' (S9 Daniel from Cam's perspective)
Six Things Teal'c Brought Back in 'Unending'
Palimpsest (darkfic, has lots of Cam in it)

[paian]

More Cam Recs:

Drag and Lift by cantarina. Summary: At the Academy, they say that Cadet Carter is all math and that Cadet Mitchell is all instinct. Also, that he's a show-off and a bit of an ass.

Frozen by sid. Cam's never been good at quiet.

Mission Omission by oxoniensis

Blip by paperhearts (header says Teal'c/Mitchell, but it reads as thoroughly gen to me)

AIM meta musings: synecdochic's Cam Mitchell knits, with bonus Sam.

[paian]

Two more Aces fics:

Cooking 101 (S9 Cam, Daniel, Teal'c, Vala)

The Grief of Nations (Cam and Teal'c)

[magibrain]

New fanworks: W is for Wait What

And now that it's traveled through GDocs, Terminal, TextEdit and DreamWeaver, it finally deigns to post without giving me an invalid encoding error. Oh happy day.

[paian]

Maybe slipping in under the wire? Some general gen vid recs:

buefo: 99 Problems (Sam) and Jolly Jaffa (Teal'c) and Super Stargate Bros. (crack).

kuwdora: High Voltage (the Ancients; spans the Gateverses), Outerspace (Ark of Truth vid, so it has a fair bit of Cam; this vid gives me chills every time I watch it)

[fignewton]

::grins:: Slipping under the wire is good! I'm waiting for one more e-mail response from a Soup author, and then I'm ready to post the anthology. And code the Gen Fic Day round-up. Er.

Thanks for all your contributions! (And your Teal'c Unending fic, which I utterly adore. But you knew that, heh.)
