I have to take summer class how am I supposed to write sensual Bra’tac fics now?

#he doesn’t have enough fics of any kind #I want to write him being all wise and sexy (smut not required) #I want to see his THIGHS #I want to hold his hands #i want to suck his dick #master Bra’tac #Bra’tac #my wormhole

[original-asteria]

my favorite thing about Bra’tac is that every time you think he’s about to die for Teal’c’s characher development, he just... doesn’t

best of sara's fic, according to her

Because I’m feeling some kind of way about my cancer lately and wanted to put together a Sara’s Greatest Fic Hits while I’m still around to do it (which is a morbid thing to type, but see the intro: been feeling some kind of way lately).

These range from my most popular fics, to the ones lost to weird posting hours, and everything in between. If I counted correctly, there are 14 fandoms on this list: from Mass Effect and Dragon Age, to Grey’s Anatomy and Stargate SG-1, to The West Wing and Calvin & Hobbes.

I’d appreciate reblogs on this (I am not ashamed to pull the stage iv cancer card here) so it can reach as many people as possible.

I have been writing fic for over 15 years; this is not a short list.

All are rated T or lower unless otherwise indicated. All stories are at or under the 3k mark unless otherwise indicated.

Stargate SG-1:

waves are universal (the heaven in hiding remix) (Sam/Jack; I’m very Normal about this fic; time travel and alternate realities, a host of OCs (and some familiar faces from Norafic if you look closely), oh and the Sam/Jack kid from the alternate reality! Only she’s an adult and working on a way to save the world! This has it all, folks: humor, romance, angst, action! I told you I’m Normal about it; 40k)

strange is the night where black stars rise (Sam; horror! A low creeping sense of doom! The King in Yellow! No, seriously, fuck that planet; 10k)

#sg1wedding (Sam/Jack; their wedding turned into An Event against their will; bets are going down about who would win in a fight: Bra’tac or the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs; also Jack loses his socks; twitterfic from 2012 and technology has definitely Marched On, just read it like an unhinged group chat fic)

phoenix (Sam/Daniel/Teal’c, Sam/Jack, Sam/Jack/Daniel/Teal’c; apocalypse (that I consulted a real live geologist on!); rebuilding in the wake of said apocalypse; team family feelings, kids, and some really shitty neighbors; 38k)

Dragon Age:

joy cometh in the morning (Ariadne; rated M; a host of OCs; mind the warnings; friendship; worldbuilding galore; friendships and mentors and first loves; did I mention friendship and worldbuilding?; 56k)

through the rude wind’s wild lament, and the bitter weather (Ari+Cullen; quiet magic, kind magic, good magic is still new to Cullen)

as the sun kissed the horizon (Ari/Josephine; a relationship in ten moments)

‘til we meet again (Ari+Cullen; platonic sleeping together!)

so hold my hand, consign me not to darkness (Ari; her faith is the core of who she is and, for the first time, Andraste isn’t there; post-Trespasser)

raise your fists up to the sky (Kylie/Krem; it’s Krem’s first day with the Chargers and there’s a naked elf in the middle of camp)

every demon wants his pound of flesh (Krem+Bull; Krem was in the Fade with the Inquisitor and the fear demon had some Things To Say To Him)

black dove (Anaya) & strange little girl (Anaya+Dagna) & dissolving clouds (Anaya+Cullen) (because neurodivergent Inquisitor, friendship, blossoming romance, and three very different takes on blood magic)

skeletons (Zahara+Bull; she is saarebas, he is Ben-Hassrath, and language is important)

children shouldn’t play with dead things (Juliette Amell; she’s always had an easier time with the dead than the living; cw for bugs)

a sorta fairytale (Josephine/Cassandra; flower shop & tattoo parlor AU; 8k)

Mass Effect Trilogy:

gonna set your flag on fire (Nora Vakarian, Liv/Garrus, James/Liara, Liv+Liara, Livfam; action! Humor! Angst! Worldbuilding! OCs!; I am Super Normal about this fic too; I promise everything’s okay in the end, promise, even though it isn’t written yet; Nora is an N3 and has an inactive control chip in her head. She and her team are ordered to investigate a Cerberus facility. It goes, shall we say, awry; 40k)

anthem (Liv/Garrus, Hannah/Zaeed, Liv+Liara; eight months is a long time without each other; angst with a happy ending (I promise); post-Destroy; 13k)

holy ground & dress (Liv/Garrus; ficlets from the night he gets sworn in as Councilor)

brightly shone the moon at night (Liv, Liv+Liara, Liv/Garrus, Livfam; five Christmases in Olivia Shepard’s life; 5k)

the pieces of gold, they light up your eyes & now we’re alone, now we’re alive (Liv/Garrus; the evolution of a relationship)

fighting is said to have reached palaven (Liv/Garrus; please, please let him be alive)

and some things you just can’t speak about (Quentus+Nico; the war)

‘cause i know that it’s delicate (Liv/Garrus; pre-wedding!)

nosce te ipsum (Nico; he likes boys and fanfiction and he didn’t think he’d get his little italicized oh moment)

i will write you love letters if you tell me to (Liv/Garrus; Hannah gives him one of Liv’s notebooks before he goes off to Omega; Garrus does the only thing he can think of with it)

i really need you (Liv/Garrus; James POV during the reunion scene in Priority: Palaven)

you look really tired (Liv/Garrus, Liv+Liara; post-Thessia, Olivia’s not doing well)

hey, so, ground rules (Liv+Zaeed; it’s a lot weird now that he’s dating her mom)

and all the scars you bear are from a previous war (Liv+Quentus; Mom!Liv)

you can hear it in the silence (Liv/Garrus; just a moment, post-war)

this all started because of a bad day (Liv/Garrus; from first meetings to matching rings)

combat, i’m ready for combat & turn on your favorite nightlight (Hannah; she’s a civilian and her daughter isn’t, and she’s bound and determined to know what Liv goes through when her boots hit the ground; Hannah, Zaeed, Liv, and Garrus hit up Armax)

four quarians who never made it back to the fleet (and one who did) (kinda what it says on the tin, honestly. Oh, Tali’s in this!)

everyone’s lost, the battle is won (Evangeline; somewhat predictably, my experiment in getting as many of my team killed as possible resulted in Feelings About It)

across the sky (Susan/Liara; how to make the Control ending feel good)

and yours is in red underlined (Vanessa; The Illusive Man has pissed her off for the last time)

i’m headed straight for the castle (Vanessa; renegade control ending; kneel before your queen)

Mass Effect Andromeda:

for saviours (Tori; ten scenes from a pre-Andromeda life; 10k)

ringing joyful and triumphant (Tori/Liam/Jaal; just some morning fluff)

the thing with the baby angara (Tori/Liam/Jaal; thinking about the future)

the undone and the divine (Tori/Liam/Jaal; the lone single solitary explicit fic on here, give it props for that alone; Liam gets absolutely railed by his partners. That’s it. That’s the fic.)

you’re like the thing that makes the universe explode (Sara Ryder/Suvi, Drack; kid, the only people who don’t know that you like Suvi are people who haven’t met you and Suvi)

this one’s for the torn down, the experts at the fall (Tori+Garrus; one night in the intersection of Victoria Ryder and Archangel; maybe they’re better friends than they both thought)

The West Wing:

a great revelation sigh (CJ; she’s Chief of Staff; ten steps to the apocalypse; the apocalypse source probably didn’t age well, heads up)

it’s in my blood and i won’t give up ‘cause it’s running through my veins (Amy+Andi; it’s Election Day in the future and Amy has nothing to do)

Grey’s Anatomy:

dropsonde (the singers in a lower choir remix) (Addison/Alex, Derek/Meredith, Addison+Derek, Addison+Mark, Mark+Derek; the one that kicked off all the remixes; absolutely off the rails from canon somewhere in S3; budding romances and kidfic and my theory about people being storms and lighthouses; 40k)

scarlet city (Mark/Addison, Burke/Cristina; film noir gangster and detective AU; Addison’s the gangster, Burke’s the detective; literally everyone I could fit into this fic shows up; also Denny is comic relief; 18k)

Misc:

access records (Star Trek Voyager; Naomi Wildman’s holodeck access for the past week; worldbuilding!)

in this twilight our choices seal our fate (the song in the house of night remix) (SVU; Olivia/Elliot; rated M; on the rise and fall of partnership; probably a little too much religious imagery but what the hell else am I gonna do with a minor in religious studies?; 4k)

the end of days job (Leverage; Parker+Eliot+Hardison; the apocalypse job, basically; this one ages well!)

let the only sound be the overflow (D&D; Calia/Kelpie/Edal, aka ot3: fathoms below; the ocean is big and they are not)

we are golden stars above silver seas (we hear echoes from another galaxy) (Calvin & Hobbes; Calvin+Susie; throughout all those years, she never gave up on him; this one went viral on tumblr [LINK] and I cleaned it up for the AO3 version)

lift her, pull her, from the orchids (Grace and Frankie; Grace/Frankie; the one where I invoke the spelling bee)

rocket queens (Babylon 5/Pacific Rim; Susan Ivanova/Talia Winters; look, they’re jaeger pilots, I really don’t know what else to tell you)

the great gig in the sky (Battlestar Galactica; Six; rebirth is painful, she forgets this sometimes)

Tell me, will..... about Bra'tac's Resume 👁👁 (if you like)

Bra’tac knelt at the foot of his god Apophis, the picture of subservience. He had studied it well.

basically this is just Bra'tac SLIGHT AU where he just. He just keeps fuckign going to the next goa'uld. Damn this is so fucked up that my previous god was suspiciously killed. They must have been WEAK!!! Unlike you, my new god!!!! *the next god gets suspiciously killed*

Bra'tac, in the next next god's recieving room: wow I've had SUCH bad luck with weak false gods. unlike YOU-

#stargate #sg1 #stargate sg1 #I simply think he should have kept doing that for a while longer #using his rep as the old loyal servant master warrior to work for one thousand more goa'uld #and then betraying them the SECOND they turn their back #asks #ask games #obscureenthusiast

[mylittleredgirl]

in some sci fi shows there’s one actor, usually playing an alien, who just so completely inhabits that role that i don’t believe they’re a human in costume. like everyone else around them is acting, possibly very well! but there’s that one guy who’s actually an alien they found and invited onto the set. on stargate it’s bra’tac. on voyager it’s tuvok.

#completely transcends the need for suspension of disbelief #i’ve seen behind the scenes footage of tim russ and i’m like oh yeah that’s tim russ #and then on the show it’s like wow how does tuvok the vulcan run a starship with all these actors #that must be weird for him #stargate sg1 #star trek voyager #sgwun

[captain-sassy-socks]

Bra’tac: Violence is not the answer.

Teal’c: You are right.

Bra’tac: *sighs in relief*

Teal’c: Violence is the question.

Bra’tac: What?

Teal’c, bolting away: And the answer is yes.

Bra’tac, running after him: TEAL’C NO-

Stargate rewatch: 1x07 The Nox

aka Space Pacifists.

“We've already visited 19 separate worlds." EXCUSE ME?!?! Abydos, Chulak, Mongol planet, planet where Sam "drank the stuff", The Land of Light, UV planet, blue crystal planet, and that's just SG-1. I'm being generous and not counting any of the home planets they sent the refugees from CotG back to, but that only leaves 12 planets for all nine SG teams to have visited offscreen in the months before this? Even taking into account that not all of them may be exploration teams, this is stretching credulity. Was this episode meant to be earlier in the season?

Daniel and Sam are back in their helmets - maybe this was meant to be placed earlier.

Why did the Nox cloak the Stargate in the first place if they want to be left alone?

This episode was written by Hart Hanson, who would go on to create/exec produce Bones. It was his only Stargate script.

By a galactic coincidence, Apophis is also looking for the invisibility hummingbird at the very same time SG-1 is - but it kind of works, Apophis has had a First Prime rebel against him, he’d be afraid of looking vulnerable to the other system lords and is in need of an advantage over them.

Watching these episodes in HD you can really see how much everyone is just acting though the Vancouver rain. Look at poor Chris Judge’s head!

Daniel is all in tither wanting to capture Apophis - it’s the first real mention we’ve had of Sha’re and Skaara in several episodes. He’s the one pushing for it - when things get Personal for Daniel he gets fixated and while he marshals his arguments, they’re coloured by emotion.

Jack by contrast keeps it tampered down - but he wants to be convinced and in the end quite easily is, importantly with Teal’c’s support (which isn’t given without bias either). Sam is the only one with reservations.

I think this is the first time we see Daniel actually fire his weapon. Doesn’t hit anything though.

Apophis personally takes out Jack, Sam, and Daniel, which is kind of badass. He’s a Goa’uld who leads from the front lines.

That’s death no. 2 for Daniel so far.

“Dal shakka mel - I die free.” This will become a mantra for Teal’c and the Free Jaffa moment, although they later change the Goa’uld version to Shal’kek nem’ron.

Jack and Sam both sniff the fruit the Nox give them, and Jack gives it a little buff before taking a bite. Sam doesn’t actually seem to eat it, and Daniel’s too distracted trying to communicate to do anything but hold it.

“You attacked them.” I love Lya so much, and she had their number here - it’s a good setup because absent of context it does look like SG-1 was trying to kill Apophis without provocation, and the Nox have good reason to be wary of them.

“We just wanted to take him back to our world to have a little chat with him about all the nasty, bad things he’s been doing.” I love RDA’s delivery of this. And Daniel, echoing the bad, looking pretty murderous, seeing as Apophis has been doing those bad things to his wife. I do appreciate that Shanks commits to playing the subtext around Sha’re even when it isn’t explicit in the dialogue.

Great dynamic between Teal’c and Shak’l - he could not be the mentor Bra’tac was for him, and created a rival rather than an acolyte.

Aw, Jack still getting jittery about weapons around kids.

“Knowledge takes time, and over the years we teach the young to be wise.” Daniel trying to get information out of grandpappy Nox but not really hearing what he’s saying - that knowledge must be learned, not simply told. This is the arc for Daniel over the whole series and particularly around his later ascension - at this stage he wants to absorb as much information as he can, without really understanding it.

Daniel wearing gloves most of this episode again when no one else seems to be.

Great scene between Jack and Anteaus as well - Jack’s frustration comes from a good place, but it’s misguided and paternalistic.

I love the faerie, wood-sprite aesthetic of the Nox, especially this branch/flower arbor.

LOL Sam kicks one of the Jaffa right in the crotch. And due to a continuity error, we see it twice!

Daniel then shoots the Jaffa with a staff weapon - unclear whether or not he dies (if so I guess the Nox bring him back to life). But it’s not as if this is the first time Daniel has killed, he offed at least one Jaffa in the movie, so I guess he’s a better shot with the staff weapon than a handgun.

“The very young do not always do as they are told.” This might as well be the show’s tagline.

Interesting that we’ve had two cautionary tales so far, to ensure the show isn’t always in favour of US imperialising all over the galaxy.

Heya, SG-fam and SG-enbies!! :D So I’m finally on the latter end of watching SG-1 for the first time and I think I’m just about ready to post a Part 2 for SG-1 reacting to your they/them pronouns! :D

So far, I think the post is gonna include Cam, Vala, Jonas (my beloved), General Landry, Dr. Lam, and maybe Bra’tac? LOL bc Bra’tac is a real one and deserves more recognition! I might add some other characters too but idk at this point! (I feel like I’m forgetting someone LOL so if anyone else comes to mind, pls don’t hesitate to lmk!!) I might just include Martouf just for the hell of it bc I just saw the alternate universes episode and god I missed him LOL 🥲😭

Also might update my pov on General Hammond and Maybourne as well LOL bc my idea of Maybourne changed after he became a rat bastard outlaw and he seems a lot nicer than he did earlier on LMAOO.

So TL;DR: expect a new SG-1 and your they/them pronouns post soon! ☺️😁

#should i include selmak too? hmm idk.. #stargate #stargate sg-1 #stargate sg1 #nonbinary #stargate x gn reader #they/them
