SG1 fic

I appear to have read all the Stargate SG1 fic on AO3 over 10,000 words.
Actually, all the Jack/Daniel m/m fic, with no Warnings.
It's not that I mind gen, it's just that Jack/Sam tends to make me not like either of them very much, and there's too much fic that thinks it's gen if it's not explicit but is secretly het. Read more... )

So now I seem to have read All The Fic. If it gets shorter I get crankier cause it usually doesn't put plot in. I read it all quick and only left comments a couple of times cause I'm helpful like that.

I have already read All The Fic in Due South on AO3 as well.

I know there is more fic on the internet than AO3. But once there's so much in one place it somehow gets harder to go looking elsewhere. Especially when it's searchable shiny and stuff. Series all in neat linked lists, searches you can organise by word count, tags... shiny.

So now if I want to read more I need to rediscover where the archives are at. Or the LJ rec comms maybe.
Trying to find the good fic, even the everyone recs it everyone thinks everyone has read it fic, is not so easy when one is not in the fandom any more.

Jack/Daniel with Warnings for non-con and character death.
Somewhere that isn't all xover AUs all the time.
... there are only so many quantum mirror stories one can read in a lifetime.



Actually, there's only a week before college starts again. Probably I'll stop being on such a fanfic kick.
I was going to say I could write more if I read less, but I don't think I could, I tend to grind to a halt after two or three thousand words and just not recharge for a while.

I started looking for John/Rodney stories. Despite neither watching Atlantis nor fancying John or Rodney. *big shrug*

On AO3 I searched, filtered for No Archive Warnings and m/m, and sorted by word count.

On the first page:
John and Rodney are figure skaters
2 loooooong BDSM AUs
John the Dragonlord on Pern
Rodney McKay, raised by a pod of telepathic whales.
Three-day event rider John Sheppard
John is determined to jump start his catering business
A Regency AU
Historical post-war AU


... all these on the front page of the really long fic.
... some of them aren't even tagged AU.

tentative conclusion: nobody else actually watches Atlantis either, they just like playing with the dolls.

SGA fandom: has a thing.
hopefully it's a happy thing...

So then I spent the rest of my evening trying to design a Tel'tak in GURPS rules. Read more... )

... neither I nor anyone else really needs to know this, but, now I do.

The tricky bit was realising I hadn't seen escape pods on the equipment lists anywhere. Read more... )

... I'm too tired and headachey to think of setting up my computers, because mistakes would cost, but I'm perfectly fine to do lots of fiddly box filling maths, including converting between units because GURPS uses yards and similar. Mistakes in GURPS spaceships don't cost. I'm not even playing them.

It would be nice to go to sleep, sleep 8 hours, and wake up again. Possibly at set times every day. I hear many humans do that.

... I do spaceships, or get very very bored staring at the ceiling.
