Shows: SGA, Superman, Batman
Rec Category: crossovers
Characters: Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne, Rodney McKay, John Sheppard, Ronon Dex, Teyla Emmagan, Radek Zelenka
Categories: gen
Words: 5713
Warnings: none apply
Author on DW: [personal profile] roga
Author's Website: Roga on AO3
Link: And Then the Heroes Came Along on AO3, and the podfic by reena_jenkins is here.

Why This Must Be Read: The great thing about SGA is that people can write any sort of crack, and often do! In this story the team run into a bemused Clark and Bruce offworld, due to a space-time continuum glitch. John and Rodney's reactions are hilarious (as are most of the science department's) especially after they learn that in Clark and Bruce's DC universe, Stargate: Atlantis is a TV show! The ending is excellent, and illustrated! A fun read.

Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: Gen. Steve the Wraith, Original male character, John Sheppard
Rating: Mature
Length: 1801
Content Notes: no AO3 warnings apply. Second person POV
Creator Links: frostfire on AO3
Theme: Outsider POV, genfic

Summary: More issues, Steve's and others'.

Reccer's Notes: This is told from the POV of a young Marine, on guard outside Steve the Wraith's cell on Atlantis. He battles with the pressure Steve puts on his mind and senses, made worse by possible unresolved issues from his past. Then Sheppard visits and comprehensively distracts the Wraith, and things change. An interesting perspective and character study, and I liked the second person POV which made it more immediate, being inside the guy's thoughts.

Summary: И кролики могут быть верными. (And rabbits can be true.)

Author’s Notes: АУ: дорамоверс, вансяни вынесли кроликов из пещеры. (AU: Dramaverse, Wangxian brought the rabbits out of the cave.)

Беты [archiveofourown.org profile] noface и mummi. (Betas [archiveofourown.org profile] noface and mummi.)

Reccer's Notes: The POV character of this Russian-language fic is one of Lan Yi’s white spiritual rabbits—who, taken into the sunlit green world, suddenly has to adjust to not only a custody transfer but an alien habitat and way of life. This story alludes to the fairytales of the Snow Maiden and the rabbit who saved the Buddha, so be prepared for a similar tale of self-sacrificial devotion.

(And yes, the author addresses the question of how the rabbits subsisted in the ice cave—something a lot of Chen Qing Ling viewers had been wondering.)

Summary: So, yeah, I was rummaging through a box of photos that my gran had, and you'll never guess who was in some kind of official publicity still. Fo-ye! That guy was a looker.

I digitised it to share, and I've scrounged up a few more. I Am Engaging In History, so proud!


Author’s Notes:: // I futzed around with some screenshots and publicity stills to make them look 'vintage'. Not very deep, but hella fun.

// Images free to share, use, or remix, no credit required. (But if you do credit, please include the Pixabay source data as well.)

// Bon appetit.


Reccer's Notes: A 21st-century amateur history buff, rummaging through time-faded family scrapbooks, newspapers, magazines, and memorabilia, unearths a century’s wealth of photos, gossip, and pop culture about the great families of the Nine Gates (discovering in the process that, in Jess Nevins’ words, research is fractal.)

Show: SGA

Rec Category: Rodney McKay
Characters: Rodney McKay, John Sheppard, Ronon Dex, Teyla Emmagan

Link: Indistinguishable From Magic

Author’s summary: When John rubs a magic lamp-- "Magic?" squawked the genie, flapping its incorporeal arms. "How many times do I have to tell you that magic doesn't exist? Oh, you made a wish, did you? You can't just wish for something that's expressly against the laws of physics and have it come true just like that! It can't happen. Oh," it said, with an exaggerated incorporeal sigh. "We're in a story. That, apparently, makes everything okay. So go on, tell your stupid story. I bet no-one reads it. Magic and wishes? Pah!"

Why This Must Be Read: This is the best fairytale crossover-ish fic you never knew you needed, with everyone perfectly in character and Rodney as the ultimate non-genie genie of all time. It'll have you laughing all the way through to the unexpected, delightful ending and never fails to brighten your day. It's plain and simple crack-tastic—worth every read and reread!

I’m not gonna spoil this. Suffice to say that Gallusrostromegalus is a nature geek and a consummate storyteller with a twisted sense of humor, and every one of those attributes is on display here.

Fandom: The Old Guard
Pairings: None
Characters: Joe, OC
Rating: Gen
Length: 2,100 words
Creator Links: [archiveofourown.org profile] watchdabirdie
Theme: Outsider POV, Family, Characters of color

Summary: There was a man in the park watching her. She had seen him before, exactly a year before. His clothing was different, and he wore a hat this time. But the dark brown of his curls was the same. The bittersweet smile framed with a well kept beard was the same. And his eyes held the same fondness in their dark depths. Najid was not scared of the man who watched her. For she knew it was not her those sad eyes lingered on. It was her son.

Reccer's Notes: Nostalgic and sweet, as Joe is cast as a small family's personal djinn. I can't say any more without spoiling it. Author recommends that you read "à la mémoire des pères" first (linked at top of story), but I think it works well without that, with the mystery unfolding slowly (but realization comes by the end).

Summary: Blair, from a completely different set of eyes.

Reccer's Notes: This story is sweet, and gentle, and absolutely charming. It shows us how other people at the University -- specifically the secretary of the Anthro dept -- see Blair. (As might be expected, she adores him.) This story is a fave from many years ago; I hope you enjoy it.
