[livejournal.com profile] sarka made me start reading SGA fics. I haven't watched the show. I don't really know the characters.

But now, after four days, I have gone through her (short) rec list and I need more. *Need*

Recs, please? Anyone?

Because, you know, clearly I needed a new fandom. *more facepalms*

Two places you can check.

[livejournal.com profile] phantisma's fic list. She has a ton of SGA.

So does [livejournal.com profile] huntress69.

Good luck, happy reading.

[livejournal.com profile] green_grrl is a fan and has whole posts of recs. You should find something you like there and I'm sure she'll be happy to welcome you into the fandom.

And talking about my memories, I have a few rec post mem'd.

[livejournal.com profile] unamaga's "Greatest Hits" Rec Post

The great big SGA rec festival! over at [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon's journal

And a rec list with a theme, [livejournal.com profile] incidental_fire's SGA Previously Straight fic post.

FYI, I have a very one track mind when it comes to SGA, so 99% of everything I read (and therefor mem) is McShep.

I think between the two of us, we've effectively destroyed any free time [livejournal.com profile] salixbabylon might have until, oh, I dunno, JULY.

I just have to counter your icon with this one. It might also explain why some fangirls like to write stories about the greatness of the Hewlett butt (which I'm sure you'll come across as you venture into this fandom).

;D

Holy moly! When on earth did he pose for that? I need the full story.

That is one cute bum! :)

It's from a movie he did, Century Hotel.
The good part is from 6:20 to 8:30.



Angst, boy kissing and ass slapping. What more do you need? ;D

*rowr* That was nice. Too angsty to watch the whole move, but hey - perky buttcheeks do make up for a lot! :)

Lucky you! there are so many wonderful stories and such gifted writers in SGA fandom. I think you will appreciate the stories, esp all the wonderful AUs if you watch a couple of episodes. I wouldn't no where to begin to rec,, there's so much and I don't know what you've read, but I will give you a small episode rec.

To get a feel for the show:

The two part pilot episode Rising is good.

1.08 Underground
Two parter 1.10 and 1.11 the Storm and The Eye
3.07 CommonGround
3.08 McKay and Mrs. Miller
3.14 The Tao of Rodney

to get a feel for the main pairing (McKay/Sheppard)

2.06 Trinity
3.12 Echoes
3.15 The Game
4.04 Doppelganger
4.09 Miller's Crossing
4.20 The Last Man
5.06 The Shrine

Oooh! I needed episode recs! I don't know much about the characters except through fanon, and I wanted to know mroe about canon. Thank you tons! *smooch*

Okay, I agree with all of [livejournal.com profile] keefaq's recs.

If you want to get all the Chaya references (not necessery) she appears in Episode 1.14: Sanctuary.
I'm also a fan of 2.03 Runner, but that's because I adore Ronon.
2.14, Grace Under Pressure features Sam Carter and Rodney's attraction to her pretty heavily. (Also, it has bonus Zelenka!)
3.09, Phantoms, is good for Sheppard's back story.
If you want to get the references to the sexy aliens, that'd be episode 4.05, Travelers.
I'm also fond of 4.13, Quarantine, if only for a certain look that Sheppard gives Rodney at a certain period of time...
Also, 5.19 Vegas is totally unexpected, but really kind of cool.

Oooh, which pairing are you into?

Date: 2009-02-09 04:41 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] salixbabylon.livejournal.com
John/Rodney so far. But I'd be open to others, probably. I always start with just one. ;)

John/Rodney is definitely the way to go. Shep's hair and McKay's snark. It is the thing of great passion. ;-p

I don't have fic, but I have a primer. It should explain the show enough for you to read the fic...

Oooh! Thank you - I'm looking forward to exploring that when I have some time. :)
