Happy belated birthday to [livejournal.com profile] annerbhp, who brings glee and squee even to gen fans who don't go for the stupid cute! :D

And since, in her last icon comment challenge, she mentioned how much she'd enjoy reading a gen team cuddling fic... Well, here we are. :)

Summary: The team has to act as a family to gain mineral rights. It's amazing how often Teal'c pwns the rest of the team, even when cuddling is involved. ~620 words. Rated G.

For Ten for the Team, Gen Fic Day, and [livejournal.com profile] lokei, who likes her Daniel to defy expectations. Consider this one to be a very late birthday fic, okay?

Summary: The team that trains together, escapes prisons together. Set just after Need in S2, with vague spoilers for that episode. 1,070 words. PG for some rather pointed villain whumping.

This one is for [livejournal.com profile] crevanfox, who asked for "SG-1 deals with the Twilight phenomenon." Mind you, I had to visit wiki for this... :) Please be advised that in my version of the SG-1 universe, the books were published several years earlier than they were in our quantum reality. Personally, I'm blaming it on Marty Lloyd. ;)

Summary: "Twilight isn't proof of a fracture in the space-time continuum? Are you sure?" G. ~735 words. Takes place a few weeks after Moebius, with minor spoilers for that episode.

Here's another ficlet by request. (I'm still taking prompts, if you're interested!) This one is for [livejournal.com profile] flingslass, who asked for... well, you'll see. :)

Summary: An extended scene from The Lost City, in which SG-1 and General Hammond get to bid each other farewell in style. Spoilers for that episode, obviously, with very vague references to some older episodes. ~800 words.

Okay, confessing upfront: this one is unquestionably cracky. I have no idea where this came from...

If anyone is still interested after reading this kind of silliness, I am still taking prompts. It's going slowly, but at least ten of them will get written. Eventually. :)

For [livejournal.com profile] sg_betty, who used the icon below as her prompt, and [livejournal.com profile] ivorygates, who wanted classic children's literature, which this definitely is not. So. Um. Yeah. Crackfic. Set sometime in S2, when the team isn't quite sure yet when Teal'c is messing with their heads. No spoilers. ~1,650 words. Longer than the maximum word limit for these things, but it's two prompts in one, so... Ah well.

Summary: The team tackles a monster off-world, and identification comes from a surprising source. The team should know that Teal'c pwns all by now.

Special thanks to [livejournal.com profile] aurora_novarum for her speedy beta skills and the brainstorming session! And yes, I think it did end up even longer. ;)

Hurray for quick inspiration! Here's the first of the team ficlets I offered. Don't expect them all to be this prompt, though... :)

This one is for [livejournal.com profile] traycer_, who asked for a ficlet based on the phrase, "I get by with a little help from my friends." Slightly more Jack-centric than team-centric, but the gang's all here! Set in late S3, with no real spoilers (other than a dead false god checklist). Rated PG for slight Jack whumping. 972 words.

In 2008, I started the year by offering ficlets by request. I loved the kick start, and hey, [livejournal.com profile] stargate_summer isn't due for ages, so who cares if I only have scenes in my head and nothing actually written down yet? ;)

So, comment here with a team prompt - a phrase, a quote, an icon - and I'll write you a ficlet between 100 and 1,000 words. Classic team only (sorry, Vala and Mitchell fans), and obviously gen! I'll do at least ten. I won't commit myself to the first ten on the list, but I'll try to give those priority.

Aaaand here's the last of the request ficlets! And whew! That's it for January, people - my fandom writing time is hereby dedicated to the next Canon vs. Fanon. Once that's posted, we'll see what comes next. Thanks to everyone who contributed a prompt! I still haven't mastered the art of really short fic writing, but at least they're all less than 1,000 words. :)

[livejournal.com profile] uniquinum had to wait longest for hers, because no matter how hard I tried, I could not figure out a way to write her prompt without making it absolute crack. I finally told myself that Uniquinum actually likes funny and cracky ficlets, so why fight it? :) Approach with caution: absolutely over-the-top and out-of-character (but-in-cliche) Jack ahead! Sam and Janet, hopefully, are very much in character.

Uniquinum asked for Sam and Janet and "They'd better start making babies." Yes, it's gen. And you have been warned. :) Sometime in S2. Word count: ~950

I restarted this ficlet eight times. Fluffy, angsty, funny - they all flopped. I tried it from Daniel's POV and Selmac's and nothing worked. Finally I gave up and let Sam take over - and it still ended up going in a completely unexpected direction! I can only hope you like this, Redbyrd. [livejournal.com profile] uniquinum's might have to wait a little longer.

[livejournal.com profile] redbyrd_sgfic asked for Jacob/Selmac and Daniel, on the teltak during the mission to try and rescue Jack and Teal'c before they freeze to death in the hybrid glider. Spoilers, obviously, for Tangent. Rated G. Word count: ~770

[livejournal.com profile] izhilzha asked for Sam and Teal'c and rock music. The result surprised me, and it's definitely the longest ficlet so far at just under 1,000 words. Hope you like it, Izhilzha! It's set in very early S1, sometime after The Enemy Within. Word count: ~950

Two more to go to finish all the ficlet requests! I hope to have them up on Sunday for Gen Fic Day. Please remember to spread the word to your flists - I would love Gen Fic Day to be even more successful than last time!

Welcome, newcomers! I think I should warn you that I'm not usually quite so prolific. :)

This one is for [livejournal.com profile] martyfan, who asked for Jack and Daniel and the following quote: "What's the use of a footsoldier that who can't do anything but hobble along and moan about brains?" This means that despite my best intentions, I have written zombie fic. I leave it to you to decide if this is a good thing or not. No spoilers, any season. Word count: ~730

This one is for [livejournal.com profile] trindajae, who wanted Sam and Jack and "I could warn him... But then it wouldn't be as funny." Takes place in Season 5, probably. Word count: ~550

This one is for [livejournal.com profile] aurora_novarum, who asked for Sam and Janet: "I feel the need. The need for speed." This is my first-ever attempt at writing Janet at all, even if I stayed in Sam's POV, so I hope it works! :)

Spoilers for Upgrades. Word count: ~700

Earlier, we had Abyssis' Hammond ficlet. This one is for [livejournal.com profile] moonshayde, who asked for Jack and Hammond and "You know me, sir." Word count: ~ 625. Hope this makes you smile. :)

Because George Hammond rocks, today will cover both Hammond prompts. This one is for [livejournal.com profile] abyssinia4077, who wanted Daniel and Hammond while Daniel was still trying to retrieve his memories after "Fallen." Moonshayde's will go up later today.

Word count: ~660. My brain has apparently not yet wrapped itself around the concept of snippet, but I'll keep trying... :)

This one is for [livejournal.com profile] tejas, who asked for Daniel and Jack, the first night home after Sha're's funeral. A bit depressing, I'm afraid. Also, possibly a little melodramatic. Word count: ~550

I should mention that I haven't committed to going in order of request - it's just worked out that way, with these first two ficlets. Also, please remember that I've only said I'll write at least 100 words. These first two turned out longer, yes, but no promises! :)

Here's the first of the ficlet requests! And speaking of which, you might want to check out [livejournal.com profile] kellifer_fic's own ficlets on offer - "Firsts." She did the first mission for Daniel after Sha're's death for me, but there are several other SG-1 ones, including Teal'c's first solo trip outside Cheyenne Mountain and Sam's first flight.

This one is for [livejournal.com profile] maevebran, who asked for Daniel and "Not until I'm dead... and sometimes, not even then." Spoilers for Threads, and inspired by some discussion on LJ somewhere or other. Word count: ~550

So, I told [livejournal.com profile] abyssinia4077 that I ought to try drabbles rather than ficzillas. I turned in the final draft of some workzilla yesterday morning (YES!) and the next project in line isn't half as mentally exhausting. And with[livejournal.com profile] ivorygates so kindly providing me with literal fireworks for inspiration, let's start off the year with some ficlets, shall we?

Comment here with your ficlet request: any one or two characters from classic SG-1 and the regular cast, with a phrase or quote or concept or icon. I'll write at least 100 words for you, and yes, it will be gen. :)
