fic rec (SGA) - A Far Better Thing by alex51324
RL has been weirdly busy; I didn't even have time to post about not having time to post. I have like ten posts I'd like to write but first I better get a few pages of the new skript sketched. Oh, and the next comic page is finished except for the lettering.
fic recs:
This one's by a writer who's new to the fandom. It makes me happy to see good writers discover the fandom even now. Go read, enjoy, and feedback her like crazy so hopefully she'll write more! (okay, I haven't commented myself yet because of the whole lack-of-time thing, but I will!)

gen; PG:13; Characters: Rodney, Rodney, team, Jennifer, Sam; ~18,600 words
Summary: After spending years trapped on a Wraith ship, Rodney McKay escapes and returns to Atlantis. The only trouble is, he's already there.
This is a hugely entertaining, plotty genfic that reads like an episode - like an exceptionally good, moving episode, with some very interesting ideas and witty lines. I found all the characters really well written (Keller-fans proceed without trepidation ;) and Rodney's characterization(s) rang very true. The story uses a trope that's not uncommon to the gate'verse and it's doing it in an original, thoughtful and thought-provoking manner. I'm still finding myself thinking about it.
(Oops, I'll rec the other one later... time, stop flying, dammit!)
