It's SG-1 Gen Fic Day! Celebrate by commenting here with links to new fic, older fic, recs, meta, picspam, vids -- anything, as long as it's gen and related to SG-1.
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 Jaffa-centric stories, today's unofficial theme - even if you've linked to your own Bra'tac or Teal'c or Rak'nor fic in the past, we'd love to see it here again. But that theme is only unofficial, so go ahead and link to other fanworks, too!
Sometime tomorrow, I'll post a round-up for everything linked, both on DW and on LJ.
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!

Y Is for Years
Bra'tac strode across the trampled meadow towards the shimmering chappa'ai amidst a rumble of staff weapons butted hard on Chulak's ground in respect. No honor guard, the Jaffa posted here; some of the most able and courageous warriors of this planet, they performed, in deadly earnest, a duty as vital in this strange new era of peace as it had been in the countless generations of war that preceded it. And what better delegation could a returning warrior desire?
No priests. No Priors. Only Jaffa, now, at the gateway to this Jaffa world.
Teal'c stepped through onto the stone platform in a swirl of robes. As ever, Bra'tac's heart soared at the sight of him, pleasure tinged with only a mild dismay at the greying temples, the new lines around mouth and eyes. He knew of Teal'c's entrapment in time on the Tau'ri ship and the price he had paid for saving his comrades and the Asgard's legacy. He had also heard of Teal'c's ordeal on Celestis. Surprisingly, the wear of years and suffering paled in comparison with the ravages wrought on him by the Dar Eshkalon massacre and its aftermath. Imposing and inspiring a figure as ever, he seemed more balanced, more at peace, than Bra'tac had seen him in a great while.
He could not suppress a smile and nod of approval as he moved to meet his onetime protégé at the foot of the platform steps. But he sobered as he got a closer view of Teal'c's expression.
For Teal'c, this was the poignant joy of reunion after a long and gruelling campaign, magnified many times over. What had been for Bra'tac a scant -- albeit momentous -- few weeks had been decades for his old friend. Teal'c had tears in his eyes when they gripped each other's arms.
Never had they met this way without another battle on the near horizon. Never had they met this way in a time of peace. Never, in all their lives, had they known a time of peace.
