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 fanworks regarding SGC personnel outside of SG-1, today's unofficial theme - even if you've linked to your own Reynolds or Bill Lee or Hailey 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!

Q is for Q-ship and Quarantine
Yayyyyyy!
Alphabet Soup, C is for Cool Competence
S is for Stuck and Strangers
E for Environment - SG-1 Alphabet Soup
A is for Allegiance
That didn't last long.
The interests and needs of the SGC went beyond military hierarchy and national boundaries. Paul had considered himself their ally from day one, in his capacity as liaison to their allies among the Joint Chiefs. As time went on, however, he found that considering himself to be their only ally worked out much better. He couldn't be there for them all the time, but whenever he was sent, he put his heart and soul into achieving whatever outcome they sought, because they weren't about nickels and dimes and politics and old hatreds.
In time they gave him an office. Paul was more honored by that than by any military decoration he'd ever been awarded. His name was on a door in the most important facility on the planet, just because they appreciated his efforts. Because they liked him.
He came as a stranger, but now he knows every inch of every corridor. He knows where the bullet holes were, before they were efficiently patched. He can point to the corner where Doctor Jackson tripped, spilled his coffee, dropped two books, and bumped his head while busy theorizing why the Asgard wore no clothing. "What's bigger than a trifecta?" Colonel O'Neill had asked Paul rhetorically, before placing his handkerchief into Daniel's hand and turning him around to head for the infirmary.
Is there something bigger than a trifecta? Paul wouldn't know the answer to that, because he's not a gambling man. He leaves that to the brave women and men of the SGC, who gamble with their lives every time they go through the Stargate. Who risk everything for the security and future of their country and their planet.
He's just proud to have their backs. They will always be able to count on him.

P is for Paleontology (Rothman)
Paleontology
Robert was a museum kid from about five years old on. It wasn’t the dioramas, the models, or the eventual movies and flashy interactive that started creeping in as he got older—none of that was what brought him back weekend after weekend, after school and on rainy summer mornings.
Robert was in love with the bones.
He loved the silent threat of hanging jawbones and stony claws, the curving patterns of vertebrae and ribs, and the hypnotic emptiness of hollow eyesockets. He loved walking in the park on the way home and imagining monsters sleeping under his feet, waiting for him to find them, destined one day for Rothman Hall in the new wing of the Museum of Natural History. His fingers itched for a trowel and a brush, for the contrasting textures of ivory and marrow.
The world was a broken puzzle, and Robert was going to put it back together.

I will have my fic in today! It's 95% done. I'm just at work at the moment, and will be delayed. >_< Sorry!

(My own fic was shoved back in the WIP folder a few hours ago and a new fluffy bit of silliness begun in its place. Some characters just do NOT cooperate.)

I had this really neat idea about a scientist who was studying Goa'uld Y-MRCAs, but unfortunately it kinda sat down and went "I'm a really neat idea! ...what do you mean, I need to grow a story?" So I went and dusted off something completely different. :| Dang stories. They only do this to hurt us.

Lots and LOTS of SGC personnel recs ahead!
Routine Mission by Maya. Gleeful SG-13 for the win! Dave Dixon and his merry band, hiding out from dinosaurs - and utterly unfazed, because hey, this kind of insanity is routine.
Five reasons the SGC needs Siler's giant wrench, by Splash. From fix-its to giant aliens with teeth to baseball games to hallucinating colonels trying to take over the base... Siler's wrench is one of the most important tools at the SGC. :)
The Parting Glass, by Redbyrd. Daniel-centric, but also a tribute to all the minor characters that have been lost through S4, especially Robert Rothman.
Another Redbyrd fic: OMG, They Killed Science! Bill Lee and Sam, pretty much tongue-in-cheek, tackling the not!science of Red Sky.
Just a Scientist, by Aurora. Bill's POV of the events of Evolution.
Five Things Bill Lee Learned About Daniel While They Were In Honduras, by Thothmes. What it says on the tin.
More Bill fic, which has already been linked but deserves it twice. :) Giant Plant-like Thing in the Night, by Ziparumpazoo. Bill in the wake of Zero Hour, more than a little nervous about plantlife.
Sound by Cyren is a fabulous look at MacKenzie and Jonas Quinn.
Another excellent MacKenzie piece is Wonderland's Remnant, in which he and Daniel have an intelligent, adult conversation post-Legacy.
Everything is a Transition by Neovenus is a wonderful exploration of Satterfield's time at the SGC, post Proving Ground. Nyan is a great bonus.
Clear As Crystal (If you’re Daniel, which we’re not) by Lokei is a fun missing scene of Robert Rothman and Nyan trying to figure out the crystal skull, with some not-entirely quiet commentary from an out-of-phase Daniel.
More Nyan fic: Breaking New Ground by Redbyrd, which is Nyan's POV of New Ground, including leading up to the ep and its immediate aftermath.
There's a BList in My Closet by Christi is a much crackier explanation of what happened to Nyan -- and other minor characters, too. Pairings are implied, not very seriously. :)
Five Promotions Paul Davis Never Got by Mrs Pollifax is another one that's been linked but deserves another mention. I love #4 the most.
Evening the Odds by Cleo is Reynolds fic! A look at his time at the SGC over the years, from S2 through Vis Uban.
The Downstairs Neighbors by Wonderland is a fun glimpse of what NORAD imagines the SGC gets up to.
Five things Walter Harriman keeps in his sock drawer, by Soapboxsolo. Sweet and thoughtful.
Insider Info, by Pepper. Slightly cracky fic with Walter and Jonas.
The One With All the Answers - already linked, but deserving a second glimpse. :) Walter knows everything.
Not Today, by Nymaeria. A missing scene from Within the Serpent's Grasp that explains how SG-1 managed to get out of the SGC so smoothly. Go Walter!
When Your Job Description (You Announce Chevrons!) Is a Total Lie, by Madelyn. This fic made me laugh and laugh and laugh. Walter goes shopping for Atlantis, with a little help from Teal'c. Part of a long and detailed AU but reads perfectly well as a standalone.
