i can fly! at least, i think i can

It's been awhile since I've posted any recs; I've been saving up. Enjoy!!

SGA Comic by gnine

So cute!!

Masters of Sci-FI, Fantasy and Horror

While it's good with geniuses like Kripke and Joss Whedon, it passes over the ultimate--Chris carter.

The Slow Rise of NCIS

It's rare to find articles on NCIS, and this article points that out. A good read and tribute.

BSG Duo Comes Out

Sexual spoilers. lol

An Angel Close By Me by zelda_zee

The first and still best Dean/Castiel fic I've read. It's beautiful.

EW Article on New Star Trek

OMG new Trek!!!

Star Trek Trailer

Finally, the long-awaited trailer. I saw this on the big screen when I went to see Quantum of Solace. O.M.G!!

Firstly, a very big, warm, and happy birthday to biani! She is just a wonderful person, and a fabulous fan. Hope it's a good day, dear!!

( Lucy angsts about her recent McShep OTPness )

Ok, all that aside, here are some (you guessed it) really good McShep fics/art of late.

1. Unconventional Heroism by sardonicsmiley

An IronMan AU. Yes, you heard me right. I know, I know, after ranting about everyone's sudden squee over RDJ, I go out and join the bandwagon (of Iron Man, not RDJ which I was already on, thank you very much). But I wouldn't rec it if it wasn't great. It's witty and smart, and John is to Lois Lane as Rodney is to Superman. Yes, I had to throw that in because I've never understood how Lois didn't realize Clark=Superman. Seriously, just a pair of glasses? But seriously, this fic is great--it's wonderful to see a fic where Rodney's bravery is not in question and shines through.

2. Bar Harbor's Best with fic by wojeleh and art by beeej

I love boating AU's. It's an amazing piece of art that really just brings to life the fic. Such a wonderful combination together. And really, John Sheppard on a boat. Did I mention how much I love boating AU's? Go, read! *shoos*

3. A City Seems with fic by thisissirius and art by mortari

Let's just say, the very first SGA fic I wrote? This story is what I wanted it to be. I bow to the amazingness (yes, that's a word) of thisissirius. A beautiful, heart-breaking tale.

4. Nevermind with fic by aesc and art by newkidfan

You have not seen art until you have seen this. The art and story flow one right into another and it will astound your mind. I simply can't rec this enough.

5. Of the Spotless Mind by lunabe34

A beautiful, tragic piece that broke my heart. So moving.

I am broken. Little pieces of me lying on the floor. Bawling like a baby.

If you have never read springwoof and Leah's "Left to Fend" 'verse, you must. It will tear you apart, make you cry, put you back together...only to do it all over again. Truly, truly moving.

Left To Fend (Read first)
The Body Holographic

Don't mind me. I'll just be lying here, curled up in a ball, trying not to blubber.

Well, I have absolutely nothing profound to say, so...have a mish-mash post.

NCIS (Did I mention I'm going through withdrawal?)

Meet Abby's lab. It has lots of gloves.


I ♥ my team.

Kyle XY

I just finally caught up (I guess there's two more eps of the season remaining. However, I have no clue if it's been affected by the writer's strike or not. Anyone else know? IMDB says they should be airing this week and next.). I am still in love with "Keclan". And no, I don't mean just the Kyle/Declan slash (which I probably love more than any other because they are just so darn cute!). But the name is just too adorable. Seriously, said it before, saying it again, Lori and Hillary? Total closet slashers.

And also in 2x14, Kyle and Jessi walk out of the woods and they see a cabin. Jessi asks, who lives there? My response (which I yelled out): Jack O'Neill!! LOL Had the same dock and everything that he fishes from. So now I want Kyle XY/SG1 fic.

One of these days I will write another Kyle XY fic.

Torchwood

Q.E.D. by smokeringhalos/technosage.

A lovely, bittersweet and witty short fic wherein Ianto and Martha talk about...the avant garde and Jack pouts.

SG:A

Suffer Me Not To Be Seperated by auburnnothenna

A very painful, but beautiful and romantic tale of loss and reunion, loneliness and waiting. I think part of what makes it so hard to read is that the situation is so close to what could happen in the SG universe if it hadn't been for Merlin's device. The politics are so real. And then of course add in our angsty boys and...it's one amazing fic.

The X-Files

I have had a hard time believing it all. And then I saw WonderCon photos and the "trailer" and OMG. It's surreal and fabulous. God, I've missed my show.

Oscars

Not impressed.

So, when I originally saw a photo from Hancock, my reaction was like, ugh, please. And then I saw THE TRAILER. And OMG you have got to watch it. It's hilarious!! There are heroes. There are superheroes. And then there's HANCOCK. Will Smith and that guy from Arrested Development.

In case you missed it the first time around, check out A priest, a rabbi, and an ATA user walk into a bar . . . I like to think of these as jokes the SGC tells about their sister expedition.

Recs:

10,000 Pieces by blueraccoon

This story is just beautiful. So often slash fics have the characters saying "I love you" but it feels so fake, so contrived (to me, at least). This fic doesn't have those three little words in it at all, but it's so right, and so obvious. The author truly shows how McKay and Sheppard fit. (Ok, I'll admit, the last scene is a little chick-flicky, but it's still lovely as can be.) Highly recommended!

Where the Similarities End by alizarin_nyc

For all those Torchwood AND SGA fans. *nudges siberian_skys* It's a rather humorous look at the two teams getting together, courtesy of none other than the IOA. Neither team is happy about it. And yet, there's a whole lot of chemistry going on. Pretty hot!

So I just watched Galaxy Quest last night (yes, shut up, I know I'm probably really late to the party), and I DIED. Like, how spot on is most of it? The only thing missing was some crazy slashy reference. But I loved it.

And now I want to know, where is the SG1/SGA RPF Galaxy Quest AU??!

A quick rec: Not Ready by argosy

This is a short, but perfect, tag to Quarantine. It's just so...right.

HOLY F***. So Joe fans, have you all seen his Dawson's Creek episodes? Because ok, I totally fast-forwarded through the other bits not involving him (even for Joe I will not watch DC that doesn't include him), but HIM. SEX MACHINE. Like, when he cocks his hip out or purses his lips on SGA, he's hot. Smokin', even.

But every single second he was on screen of these two eps, he just fucking oozed sex. He's a fucking fisherman looking to be a lawyer. Half naked, smirking, kissing, hands, scruff, hair...*DEAD OF TEH FLAN HOTNESS*

I don't care if she was only 16, I'd have done him at 16! Yes, yes, indeedy. Laws be damned.

To be Michelle Williams...

Seriously, that was better than most of the porn I own.

I'll be in my bunk.

ETA: Because now I want John-as-a-fisherman fics, and maybe you do, too, I want to rec Romance at the Roadkill Grill by lamardeuse. I still want more though, just as wonderful.

*returns to bunk*

Christmas:

1). Anyone who's a fan of Alex Krycek needs to check out the Alex Krycek 12 Days of Christmas calender thing. Lots of great new artwork! Plus some fics and recs.

2). A humorous romp in which John and Rodney Save Christmas over at sga_santa. Too funny! Just the right kind of Christmas cheer I was looking for from SGA this year.

SGA:

1). A hilarious 5 Things fic in which Someone Finds Out About John and Rodney by bluebrocade. I dare you NOT to laugh.

2). One Piece At A Time written for sga_santa. It has a little bit of everything. Manly building, Athosian detective work, Sheppard and a fear of babies, genderswitch, clueless!Rodney, and a very sweet ending. What more could you want?

3). MGM has this cool little thing with videos where you can add your own messages to McKay's laptop/tablet, or Sheppard's big screen TV screen. It's fun.

Porn (sort of):

A very tasty man including video via ohnotheydidnt (NSFW). Who can resist FDNY men? That's a big ol' firehose.

And now I'm off to make lunch. And maybe do some homework reading.

PS: Still looking for a beta for my McShep fic. The fics about 14000 words long--really, it's not too bad, I swear!

To start, I am so grateful I don't have to wait six months this year. Granted, I didn't last year either because I came in late and it had already all aired in Canada and thus dls, but still. So not the point. According to JoeM, we'll be back in January and with the strike still going on, this makes me very happy. Because my usual January TV won't be on. No BSG and no 24. *rips out hair*

Also, before my recap, I have to say about ten minutes in, I was like, I've read this in a fanfic. And the funny thing? As it went on and on, it was more and more like this story. Sure, not the exact plotline, but the premise? Seriously, JoeM is lying when he says he doesn't read fanfic. ;-) Anyway, The Experiment by lunasky.

( What dreams may come, When we have shufflel'd off this mortal coil, Must give us pause. )

Till January!
