fic rec [SGA]

I shaved two whole days off my estimate. I could take tomorrow off if I want. Think I'll let it depend on the weather. If the sun is out, I'll take my rollerblades and go on a looong tour. Only five double spread pages to color, and maybe a few vignettes I promised as bonus if there's time left, which it looks like there will be.

fic rec:
Midwinter Burning by [livejournal.com profile] rhymer23
gen; PG, Team (Teyla POV); Spoilers through 4x10 This Mortal Coil; 3700 words
Summary: Teyla persuades her team to celebrate midwinter, and to find some hope in the darkness.

Browsing through my to-rec folder... A winter solstice story is maybe a weird choice to rec at spring time, but hey, it fits my mood and the themes come across no matter the season. I found this quiet story very powerful, with an overlaying sense of melancholy and of hope. A really beautiful, moving team story.
