Five Ways It Didn't Go by miss_porcupine
gen; AU; 5300 words
why rec'd: Five roads not taken. They are somewhat bittersweet and melancholy, simply by knowing what would've been, and at the same time they are hopeful, and just a joy to read.

I saw this rec'd on stargateficrec and I'm really glad that I clicked on the link even though it sounded like a story that's not easy to read. It's a fascinating exploration of Sheppard's character. Really interesting concept, and executed well enough to pull it off. I found it incredibly moving (kinda typing around the lump in my throat...).

Elizabeth, Interrupted by michelel72
I rarely rec drabbles (cause the rec ends up being longer than the fic) but I found this one quite fascinating.

on a lighter note...
tipper_green has a cool vid rec: We Came, We Saw, We Kicked its Ass! (streaming vid, multifandom)
I don't even recognize most of the shows but it's worth watching for the editing alone.
