Fan Fiction Archives (and Video sites)

  • Area 52: The Stargate slash archive. Easy to access and extensive. 
  • StargateFan the general fan fiction site with wonderful resources such as wallpapers, pictures, episode guides, postcard, sound archives etc. and
  • The Alpha Gate Season 6 free.  An excellent archive for the Alpha gate list. Contain mainly slash and gen. with some het stories. Team friendly, but tends to be focused on Jack and Daniel.   
  • The Comfort Zone: The archive for the hurt/comfort list.
  • Stargate SG-1 Fan Fiction Awards For all genres of fan fiction
  • The Daniel Friendly Zone what it says!
  • The Oubliette an archive for stories of captivity including, but not limited to: kidnapping, imprisonment and/or slavery involving the characters of Dr. Daniel Jackson and Colonel Jack O'Neill. Gen/het/slash/adult.
  • FDAS aka The Feisty Daniel Appreciation Society. An anti jammies and wimpy Daniel story site. I don't see Daniel as an alpha male, he's far more complicated than that, but I can sure see him as downright stubborn and sometimes very 'feisty'. Some interesting stories and authors such as Eos, Sideburns, Catspaw, Joy, Teand, Wadjet, Danvers and Dangermouse.
  • The Place of Our Legacy-The site is closed and stopped updating some years back. However, it contains a number of gen stories worth reading.
  • Stargate Novel Archive gen and het, but the het is not all S/J fortunately!
  • Stories from the Table a very novel and fascinating way of writing about the team. Gen and slash, all worth a read by a number of different authors.
  • jd_divas homepage- slash and gen stories, Biblio, Phoenix E, Catspaw, Brionhet, Sideburns, Marcia and babs! The list just keeps on expanding. All authors have stories worth checking out. 
  • Bunnyfic- slash and gen stories, authors include ELG, Brenda , Brionhet, JayEm, Penelope, Jackjunkie, Gatejunkie, Teneya, Scribe and even more! Go there and check everyone out!
  • The Cartouche an archive for all fan fiction, but mainly for J/D slash.
  • The Tablet, general fiction by Jb, Corby, Ellen Caldera, Lex, Nefret and Kev
  • Daniel fic provides a listing of Stargate SG-1 author's web sites and archived stories with a Daniel Jackson flavour, and is associated with TWTID aka The Wonder That is  Daniel!
  • The Grove a gen fiction archive for Aimless, Arren, Sam Walker, Hawk50 and Lorienwillow
  • The Bread Box Editions is a wonderful collection of parodies of the Season 7 and 8 episodes of Stargate SG-1 They include audience participation in the style of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (if that means anything to you, it doesn't me, but you'll get the idea as you read them). They were written by Nialla, and are hilarious. To be honest some are far better than the episode itself, but then for Avenger that would be very easy. :-)
  • I really haven't got into Stargate Atlantis, too fond of SG-1 and Daniel I guess, but something that is interesting is Pegasus_b The premise is "What if Daniel never got involved with the Stargate Program? What if he only got involved when Dr. Weir was putting together the Atlantis Expedition?"  and it so follows that Jack, Daniel and the SGA characters get to hang together! Go to pegasus_b user and you get the proper explanation plus if you scroll down, you get a running list of stories, pairings etc or look here and a story guide here.  So, if you like AU J/D, you'll find some good stories from some very good writers, and if you're into SGA, well you'll find even more characters to indulge in.
  • Dragonfly's Music Videos among other things, but the videos are lovely.

  Stargate Fan Fiction (J/D slash in the main, but rather a lot of gen and a few het. Gen and het stories are marked as such.)

163 recommendations on this page and more on  Page 2

  • I love quercus' stories. They are beautifully crafted, well plotted and ultimately very satisfying. I first came across her when she wrote the very bleak, Daniel Drives. She wrote it at the end of season 4 after hearing the news that Michael Shanks was leaving. It is a sad, dark and sombre piece, but well worth a read. It is hard to pick a favourite, but I think What Rough Beast takes first place, with Esprit de Corps coming in a close second, but then she writes another one, and I find I'm constantly changing my mind!
  • My beta, Lady of Asheru has a lovely collection of stories. Beautifully researched and delicately written. Try Appassionato per l'acqua for a gentle, fun initiation.
  •  ELG, who also writes as Lori Grey and Circe has written the best damn gen. H/C story I have ever read, Ripples. In fact I'd go so far to say it is my all time favourite Stargate story. All her fiction is worth reading both gen. and slash and can be found residing at Bunnyfic. Slash wise I particularly enjoyed Alter_ergo, and its follow up Undercurrents.
  • Quinn used to have a number of stories worth reading at Area 52, but all but two have been removed. Fortunately, her fascinating AU, called An Echo of Freedom was archived elsewhere. Be warned, it is a very dark story.
  • Diversion by Biblio caught my imagination as she was posting it month by month on the JackDaniels list. I loved her Daniel, enjoyed her Jack, her Sam appealed to me and her Teal'c was great. I also thoroughly enjoyed her Brin! Biblio is well known in the fandom and you either love her way of writing or not. I did enjoy her earlier works, but haven't enjoyed her writing for some time now . For a good laugh try flyboy_fanfic  and for romance Suspense.
  • Pure of Heart by Pheonix E is an incredibly long WIP that remains enthralling, but oh so frustrating!
  • Disconnected by Brionhet is actually the third part of the overall series called Disconnected. It can be read on its own, and I like it and Reconstruction , the last part, the best. The first two parts are hard hitting and painful, the last two have hope, humour and fun in them. The whole series, which has now been extended to eight, is an enjoyable read.
  • I like Selenay's  fiction, which since I've betad some for her is a good job! All are worth reading, but try Lean on me for an excellent post Meridian story.
  • Beverly Hills has written Eternal Embrace, the poetry is the author's own and is beautiful. The last part of the series is heartbreaking, but must be read!
  • Possession by Claire was one of the first Stargate stories I read, I thought it was excellent, although I might have wished for a slightly more positive ending. Her other stories are worth checking out as well.
  •  What this is by Emma also features in my first reads. I was fascinated by it, although I think now that Daniel's characterisation is 'off' he is far too placid and non-confrontational. It is still worth a read through.
  • Through a glass darkly by Apocrypha (gen.) enthralled me. I also liked the J/D slash sequel, Shattered Reflections
  • Another quantum mirror story is Tenaya's Forced Perspectives It comes with warnings and the first half it better than the second half, but it makes for a fascinating read, and a reminder of what is so 'good and decent' about Jack O'Neill
  • The Past Remembered by Pho is a long gen. H/C story. I've read it a couple of times, and liked the use Pho makes of Daniel's childhood and his parent's death as the basis of the plot. The evil Roland Parker made me shiver, and I was absorbed by his overwhelming interest in Daniel, past, present and future. Daniel focused, but most definitely a team story. Pho has other stories worth checking out.
  • Fang Fic by Devil Kat , is a WIP, and will forever remain a WIP, sigh, but it's funny, witty and clever with a hot Daniel, leather clad Jack and Lestat! Oh mama!
  • Dark Side by Sandi. Another of those pesky WIP's. This one has had me hanging for months. Intriguing, but I somehow doubt it is ever going to be completed!
  • .Xochiquetzl writes hot and often funny J/D. I love Penny for your thoughts, wicked! and I Never and Truth or Dare make me laugh.
  • Eos and her duck, makes me laugh. Try her Two Guys, a Gate, and the Galaxy series. 
  • Farther Than Earth From Heaven by Destina Fortunato is beautiful. Read a review  on it that does homage to the story (and is a work of art in its own right!). Check out Destina's other Stargate stories while you are there. 
  • Joolz writes J/D and gen stories often with a het tinge. Of the slash I like the Chief of Heaven series best. J/D but Teal'c and Sam are NOT ignored. The het tinge in her gen stories such as in the Loosely Bound Series means Daniel/Sam. My favourite is Unwanted Attention. What I like about these is her portrayal of both Daniel and Sam as vibrant, sexual beings, as well as wonderful people and great friends. Her gen stories do not concentrate on Sam and Daniel to the neglect of Jack and Teal'c, and the Jack/Daniel friendship, and team friendship, is strong and convincing. 
  • Zen and the art of chopsticks mutilation by Lillith, Claire and Temaris is hysterical. Daniel and Krycek get um, 'friendly', but Jack wins the day in the end. The follow up, Zen and the Art of Defensive Origami is M/K centric, with Jack's view point of the whole 'fiasco' as well. 
  • I surprise myself by liking Legion's stories, mainly because they are J/D/T, and I cannot believe in threesomes, nor this threesome in particular. But somehow Legion bypasses my disbelief and gives me The Singer Series with a wonderful alien. I also enjoyed Private Little World.
  • The Widgeteria has Widget's stories. I sniggered myself silly through her The Laundry Cycle, howled at Bluestoke: The Legend of Daniel, Lord of the Space Monkeys and thoroughly enjoyed Slow boil, or how to seduce an archaeologist. 
  • Daniel's Diaries by Scribe (gen) include the wonderful Shower Scenes. These are often funny, always clever, sometimes moving and always worth a read. She also has a few other contributors keen to get Daniel, and at times Jack, naked. Well who wouldn't? Scribe is also a Danny whumper extraordinaire. Some of her stories have me reading with my eyes closed (a specialty of mine), but I have a soft spot for Peace Offering, (written with Kaz). I still want to know exactly what that outfit Osiris had Daniel wearing looked like!
  • Perspective is a story set after Meridian, and based on a mirror universe. It is written by Brenda Antrim as Glacis, and is NOT J/D. The pairings are Daniel/Skaara and Daniel/Teal'c, and it is a fast action trip with old friends within an AU setting, but linking in with the world we know. Intriguing, and worth a read. Loyalties is a J/D story, and is a crossover with the X-Files. M/K and J/D, yummy! Perhaps that is the reason why I liked it. :-)
  • Somnambulist by C.L. Kamnikar (gen). Daniel's late night thoughts as he searches the base for coffee. An amusing trip into Daniel's caffeine deprived mind. I also liked her Daniel/Sha're Eurydice Ascending, beautiful.
  •  I shook with laughter reading Office Tryst, thoroughly enjoyed Useless Knowledge and giggled through Why Me? a clever piece in Ferretti's voice. Check them, and others, out on Layton's page.
  • The Car Series  by Devra  has the works; humour, angst, H/C, drama. I think Motor Running is perhaps the best so far. Devra has a large number of other stories that are worth a look thorugh.
  • I was reminded that I'd thoroughly enjoyed Frolicking (gen) by Jonah in the Whale. A fun bit of fluff.
  • The Honeyed Hive and Two-Part Harmony in D-Minor by Janis Cortese have two Daniel's, which for me is a real plus point! They are sexy and erotic, but ultimately melancholic. Daniel is depicted as very much a loner in these, not a portrayal I necessarily agree with, but read them yourselves and make up your own mind.
  • Intervals by Joy is a series of post episode dramas starting with the Broca Divide. Joy was initially going to end at  Meridian, but has now decided to continue on through Season 6 and 7, which will be very interesting. Most of these stories are good, some are excellent. Try them and see for yourself.
  • Esprit de corps  by Tenaya is a J/D/T threesome, and is another of those rare stories that is so well done that it makes you believe that something so unlikely as J/D/T could actually happen. It is excellently written with some very hot sex, and a very strong sense of love and respect between all three characters.
  • The Choice by Hapshut is an exciting action and adventure story with Daniel whumping, drama, a very interesting Goa'uld, some British history, and great Jack and Daniel interaction.
  • The Price of Knowledge by Graculus and Jennifer Lyon is an oldie but goodie. Long, and full of adventure it begins by assuming that Daniel and Jack did not get through the Stargate on Ernest's planet in Torment of Tantalus. This is the tale of their adventures and attempts to survive and some how get back home.  Falls the Shadows by Graculus, initially in the zine Debriefings is now on Graculus page. I like this fascinating, and slightly bewildering, story.
  • This Is Me  by Jennifer Lyons is a bittersweet series of short connecting stories.
  • Tasting the Earth by Anna almost hurts. It is hard hitting, painful and clever. Read it, then read everything else she has written in Stargate.
  • The Galian Alliance by Aloysius is a good read and introduces us to some fascinating aliens. The link is to her Stargate Page as the story is in four parts and not linked together.  
  • You'd Forgotten Love Could mean This by Delilah is her first Stargate story and I think it is wonderful.
  • Alternate reality - A love Story by DebiC  is lovely. A glitch in the Stargate drops Jack and Daniel in another reality where things are somewhat different. This is Gen and my favourite het (Daniel/Sha're) and is very angsty in parts. She has written a preslash follow up A Tragic Story, then 7 further stories that all contain J/D, but have many other surprises as the stories continue. A fascinating series and well worth a read, as are many other of the stories on her page.
  • Campfire Questions, Three-In-The-Morning Thoughts by Perri Smith. This is a Sam and Daniel friendship story and is both warm and funny.      
  • The Real Jack. by Zacari Revere is a short, but warming story.
  • The Rescue That Wasn't by Sideburns amused me and I love her Daniel to pieces! My Country Tis of Thee is angsty as hell, had me in tears and is a damn good read. A Long Day's Journey In A Line is just hilarious. Basically I recommend all of her work. Read and enjoy. Or check out her Fic Page at FDAS.
  • Second Chances by JoaG with an epilogue by Darcy. This gen H/C story is a delight. It's Danny whumping, but I can handle it, and both Danny and Daniel certainly suffer. :-) A trip through the quantum mirror has Daniel encounter his worse nightmare. With a little bit of jiggery pokery, Jack is determined that the young Danny Jackson they encounter will have a far better upbringing than his friend Daniel. Darcy' s epilogue brings tears to the eyes. A wonderful story.
  • Meeting of Minds by SEF. A gen story occurring after Daniel returns to the SGC and to an very overprotective SG-1. The Gadmeer, the aliens from the episode Scorched Earth, want to meet their saviour Daniel Jackson and exchange knowledge. This is a fascinating story with twists and turns at every page, and is written from Sam's POV.
  • Siege by Seanchaidh, another gen, I seem to be having a run of them! This is a very different story, and concentrates heavily on Jack and Daniel, but rather differently from how we usually see them. The ending is a delight and a 'Jack and Daniel friendship' moment at its hilarious best.
  • From the Ashes by Sam Walker. A gen Daniel and Teal'c friendship story, with a lot of team angst and pain, and the majestic, but easily irritated, Bra'tac. An excellent read.
  • Coffee and Confrontations by Kelsie B (gen). Jack and Daniel make a bet ... humour ensues.
  • Actualize This by Helena Handbasket. A gen SG-1 (just Jack and Daniel), Sentinel and Invisible Man crossover. And no, I don't really know either of the other fandoms, but nether the less found this highly funny with wicked J/D interaction and dialogue, and the other partners banter was funny as well.
  • An oldie, The Beggars Ride by Russet McMillan. A 'be careful what you wish for' story. Another writer, Andromeda did the sequel The Love Ride, but it is no where near as good as the original.
  • Plasticine Daniel by Clancy Thomas is another of my very early J/D slash reads. It's fun, nothing more, nothing less.
  •  Layton Cole and FCOL (For crying out loud), have created a partnership writing some very funny stories (all gen.). The Days Series are missing scenes written from each member of the team's POV. We have Ten Days.,a missing scene from Fail Safe and Seven Days is a missing scene from Urgo. Layton's a Danielite, FCOL's a Jackaholic. Both like their man to win whatever 'feud' the two are, inevitably, involved in, so wry wit and sarcastic humour abounds.  
  • Leviathan has written a Daniel/Teal'c series - Stealth and Wall - that explores their differences and expands a little on Jaffa culture. The relationship is seen through Teal'c's eyes, and is all the more fascinating because of it. (Link is to main page as none of the stories are linked together). She had done a J/D series, and of the two stories I really liked Skaara's Wedding
  • I meant to rec this ages ago. I'm not into Daniel/Janet, I'm not really into any ship but Daniel/Sha're, but Frozen Flame by Suzie Bagley is a magnificent exception. An immensely long, intricately plotted  and superbly written AU. If you want the second half you need to Email the author and she will send a copy.
  • Or else no flesh should live by Meredith is about the androids from Tin Man (Season 1) and Double Jeopardy (Season 4). Meredith story shows, from Jack's pov, how the the android Jack and Daniel became lovers (and hints at the other pairing that came across so beautifully in Double Jeopardy). Angsty and introspective with lovely splashes of humour along the way.
  • The Legend of Daniel Jackson by Sam Walker is a delightful  AU story about a 9 year old Daniel and the neighbours, called Jack and Sara, who befriend him, gen obviously.
  • Furling's Gift by Amperage and Livengoo, gen, is about Daniel as an urchin, changed from a man in his thirties to a child of seven with all his knowledge and characteristics, but in a seven year old body and with a seven year olds emotions and needs! RV to the Stars is the explanation for the whole story and probably should be read first. This Daniel is both hellishly cute and an absolute monster! I enjoyed the stories very much, and laughed out loud at  Precious Moments as seen from Teal'c POV. Mind you, on another level this story leaves me very conflicted. I  feel strongly that this gift is one of the cruellest things that could happen to any adult, never mind such an intelligent and articulate man as Daniel, and, as the implication is that this is a permanent condition, I feel guilty for laughing at Daniel's antics. You'll just have to make up your own mind. There are, irritatingly, no links between stories so you will have to use the links here, or just change the number in the addy One Two Three Four Five Six Seven Eight or go to The Alpha Gate Archive - Furling's Gift  Series
  • The Taste of Honey. The Hum of Bees by Salieri, gen. A fascinating, post Meridian and Season 6 Team story in Sam's POV that has its roots in Daniel Ascension, but also delves into the nature of the team and the connections that bind them together as comrades and friends. Deep, complex at times and with some wonderful imagery. I particularly liked the 'flying' part.
  • A slip of metal by Lady Grey. An angst filled read inspired by one of X's beautiful J/D drawings of the same name. Go and wallow.
  • Things He Remembers by Cori. Daniel's slow remembering of himself, his position in the SGC, his friends and his lover. Beautifully paced, nicely detailed in many ways and while you know who his lover must be, the way Cori deals with Daniel's memories is fascinating and clever.
  • Phoenix by Morgan O and Gharedsu, a Mirror Universe Novel. The primary pairing is Daniel/Janet, but there is a delicious surprise later on for slash fans, really delicious. This is long, involved and worth your time. Even if you are not into Daniel/Janet give this story a go, yes Daniel and Janet are together and love each other, but this is not the primary focus of the story, nor is it necessarily the way things will end. Oh yes, I forgot, this is a WIP, but both authors fully intend to complete it and you'll need time just to get to chapter twenty. 
  • Echo's Destiny and  Echo's Burden by Imagine are parts one and two of a pretty angsty AU. Daniel's life and world has been turned upside down by the invasion of the Goa'uld. His friends, and lover, are dead. He flees his universe looking to find another life, and another Jack. Echo's Resolve is the third and final part.
  • Pioneers of the Industry by Travelling One. A Gen story that reads like a good episode. Angsty, intriguing and very imaginative.
  • Have Yourself A Manic Little Christmas by Tiffany Park (gen). A Christmas read that had me snorting with laughter. An oldie but goodie.
  • Bitter Consequences by Maureen Thayer. A Sam/Daniel friendship and eventual romance story with superb Jack and Daniel friendship along the way. I really like the way she presents the slow build up of Sam and Daniel's love, yet never ever detracts or diminishes the deep caring, friendship and love between all the teammates. If you'd prefer the gen version it's here
  • Otter has a very individual and original style of writing and all her work is worth reading. It is often slightly dark, angsty and occasionally painful. Waking is a Beneath the Surface epilogue and highly enjoyable with a great beginning. The Standards of Comparison was her first SG-1 story and is very clever and very painful.
  • Loki's Curse by Jonah in the whale is a long, fascinating  and at times angsty story that follow the Season 7 episode Fragile Balance. Loki has been up to mischief and the SGC, in particular Jack and Daniel, have to deal with the results.
  • Surface Tension by Salieri (gen) is the type of story that requires concentration, but rewards you in the end for your effort. It is told from Sam's pov and is stark, dark and clever.
  • The Bread Box Edition Series by Nialla (gen, but alludes to slash, ship etc.) is a series of parodies of the episodes in Season 7. They are very funny, with a number of laugh out loud moments and are a very clever piss take of some of the more stupid moments, gaffs, clichés and poor writing in each episode. So far Nialla has concentrated on Season 7 and intends to write one after each episode. If we're lucky, she might go back through the other seasons.
  • Love Song by dirty diana is a 'love, angst and sex under alien influence' story, with a slight twist. The Thong Story is an amusing pwp with both Jack and Daniel beautifully written and characterised.
  • The Body Electric by Merry (gen). I really don't know how I forgot to recommend this. A tag for Double Jeopardy where 'Daniel's body is even more in demand than usual'.
  • Mooshee! by Salieri is a very funny story that involves Shakespeare's sonnets, Jaffa poetry, Swedish, an alien moose and Daniel's boot laces.
  • The Way Home by Ionah is a fascinating, bewildering and angsty tale set in season 7 after the events in Chimera. You're not entirely too sure what to believe until the end, and the whole thing is very well written.
  • Day and Night by Lady Grey (gen) takes up the baton Michael Shanks passed to the fan fiction writers to write Ninja Daniel. Here Lady Grey lets her imagination loose and piles on the angst and the drama to provide a wonderful story of Daniel's impulse to protect and how it leads him and the rest of SG-1 into danger. The first set of stories entitled A Day in The Life of the SG-1 sets up the story for Nightwatch. I enjoyed both, but Nightwatch is a wonderful piece of writing. Apparently Lady Grey gifted the story to Michael Shanks. I sure hope he reads and appreciates it. :-)
  • Serpent in the Shadow by Selenay is possibly the first piece of High Fantasy in the Stargate universe. Highly enjoyable and worth a read.
  • Horoscopes: Lucky Stars by Thel (gen) is a series of short stories written to the theme of the horoscope. Some are humorous, some angsty others dramatic, all are worth reading.
  • How Daniel got his Groove Back by Nel is an enjoyable piece of writing that starts out with Daniel getting drunk to forget something, but then he can't remember what it was that he was trying to forget, so he calls Jack! Nicely written with all of SG-1 included and a lovely scene where Sam wonders out loud why Daniel, despite his looks and charm, just doesn't do it for her, to Daniel's intense bemusement. 
  • Heroes 1 and 2 was a superb double episode, certainly the best of Season 7 and one of the contenders for best episode of the Series as a whole. Everyone performed superbly, but Michael Shanks as Daniel was absolutely fantastic in the second part. I loved every minute of his performance, but had one grumble, none of his team came to give him any support despite the fact that he was with Janet when she died. Lady Grey also felt this loss, hence One
  • Boy Interrupted by Mitch starts a year from the events in Fragile Balance where Jon, Jack's duplicate, has just suffered a head injury following a RTA and can't remember himself yet has flashes of experiences that scare him. Jack and Daniel take him home and try to help him, but Jon decides to do his own investigation and gets things just a little wrong while managing to convince everyone that he's actually recovering most of his memories. This is a good story and is mostly written from Jon's point of view.
  • Unmade by Destina. This story is beautifully written and hurts so damn much. Read it.
  • Shrinkage by Roxie (gen). Daniel gives a whole new meaning to the term 'shrinkage'. A fun and clever story.
  • Adrift by JoaG (gen).  SG-1, Lost in Space. An interesting SG-1 meet the aliens story with some good twists and turns on the way.  JoaG writes some excellent team stories. Check out her site.
  • Prestidigitation by Otter. A proliferation of syllables! This is one of Otter's happier J/D stories, but all are worth reading. Mind you some require a second or third read just to ensure you've caught all the meanings.
  • Found out about you by Byrne is her first J/D and hopefully not her last. Based in the early half of season 5 and touching on the antagonism that seemed to arise between the two men.
  • Reality check by Lady Grey. I seem to be recommending everything this lady writes! This is different, I wasn't too sure initially that I would like this, and you'll see why as you begin to read it, but Lady Grey carries this off deftly and beautifully.
  • The Price of our Legacy by Dragonflysoul (gen) is an excellent first story that give a slightly AU version of Daniel's capture and rescue in Evolution. It is written in four parts and has flashbacks, 'dream sequences', quotations, a flavour of Daniel and Sha're and truly superb characterisation of both Jack and Daniel, plus some great banter.
  • Suspended by Garret is a Daniel/John Doe crossover (with hints of J/D). I've never seen John Doe, but the story dragged me in kicking and screaming. Daniel and John are caught 'suspended' - hence the title - between one moment of their separate lives and the next. Daniel is seen through John's eyes, and he is both familiar and strange, one moment staggeringly complex, the next simple and straightforward. An interesting story.
  •  Love is a many splintered thing by Eos is deliciously funny. It also has Janet/Paul Davis, an interesting pairing and I loved the hapless, foot in mouth portrayal of him. Very different and interesting is End of the road a postscript to Heroes and the possible consequences of Sam's actions on the field when Jack fell. If you had no problem with the way Sam behaved, this isn't for you. I doubt that Daniel would be as angry as he is portrayed here, but it does raise some issues that will never be addressed in the series. Just like old times provides an AU, and an unusual, reason for Daniel's year long absence and an alternative ending to Lost City.
  • Interference Patterns by BT is a Stargate/Quantum Leap xover (gen). Sam Beckett leaps into Daniel's body while they are on a mission and Ziggy and Al can't find him. Daniel meanwhile is reluctant to give any information at all to the secret military project that are holding him, although he is a little perturbed to be wearing someone else's body. An enjoyable and interesting read.
  • Jealousy by Dith. Jack and Daniel have not quite established the limits of their new relationship when something happens on a mission that makes Jack question his place in Daniel's heart. Jealousy and anger then drive the the pair of them apart. An interesting story with Sam and Teal'c integral to the story.
  • Tents by Debi C. A lovely little introspective piece, Daniel musing on Tents he has known.
  • Shen by PeaceHeather (gen).  Shen means 'less than' in the Arkon language, and that's what the Shen are, totally obedient slaves, a rich man's plaything. Arkon is rich in naquada and SG-1 have been ordered to negotiate for it. No one on SG-1 can hide their revulsion in regards to the training and ownership of the Shen, but to show their status they must accept one of the noble's Shen services during their stay. As Daniel can speak the language he has the most contact with the female Shen assigned to them, and it is Daniel who pays for the jealousy of her owner. A fascinating and original story.
  • Living on the Edge by Babs (gen) is written from Sam's pov and is angsty and very team centric. Lovely interaction between all four members, particularly Sam and Teal'c.
  • More from Otter, a Congregation of Days and Proclivity. She really is a lovely writer. Congregation is intriguing and different with lovely Sam, Jack and Daniel interaction, Proclivity an amusing muse on Daniel's eyebrows (personally I adore them).
  • What a Man Does For His Country by Teand had me almost crying with laughter at this very funny PWP. Then I was reminded of With Flying Colours where Sam wins a test of ...'stamina' <snigger>.
  • The other side of the coin by Nicci  (gen) is a very funny take on body swapping. Daniel needs to investigate an oracle, but only women are permitted to attend the holy of holies, so Sam and Daniel swap bodies.  Trouble is, Sam hadn't told Daniel she was in the middle of her period, and Daniel hadn't warned Sam about the early morning 'stiffies' she was going to experience. Jack, meanwhile, was enjoying the floor show and trying to stop laughing, while Teal'c was learning of the 'medicinal' quality of Snickers. Hilarious! A J/D slash drenched sequel is promised.
  • Fools Gold by Corby (Daniel/Shauri). Daniel is a fool for love, and takes a serious risk to show it. This is a beautifully written, poignant and clever story. Run and read it.
  • Somewhere a dog barks by D H DeVice Jack finds Daniel has become a part of his life, whether he likes it or not. Mad and hilarious story that made me cry with laughter at times, but then again imagining Jack as a woman does that to me. :-)
  • Morning Run by Layton Colt. (gen) A delightfully funny tale with great Jack and Daniel characterisations. I SO enjoy pissy, sarcastic Daniel battling it out with a smartarse Colonel. (other stories)
  •  Adam's Rib by Roxie (gen) set in late Season 2, is a Daniel focused team story that is very much about friendship on a mission gone out of control. Its sequel, The Progeny of Eden, set in early season 5, deals with the unforeseen consequences of the first mission and the upheaval, drama and considerable angst that SG-1 and Janet suffer because of it. Nicely written and characterised.
  • Acts of Gods and Colonels by Livengoo (gen) had me howling with laughter. I remember reading it when it first appeared, and it was a fresh and funny the second time as the first. My only complaint is that near then end there needs to be a break in the story to show that the bit where Jack is showing off his plumbing comes a lot later. It's kind of bewildering at first, but does not detract from the story.
  • For each ecstatic instant by Dith is a very interesting and original look at the Jack and Daniel relationship from the beginning and beyond. Don't expect a romance, but do expect fine writing and wonderful characterisation.
  • One God by Joolz is a short, sharp, well written and telling conversation between Daniel and Jack about the prejudices, hatred and bigotry that surrounds us and gets broadcast at us daily via the TV. It is also a tale of love.
  • Two deliciously sexy pwps from the Grrrl, Reason #435 Why off world sex is not a good idea and its sequel Reason #436, enjoy!
  • Crouching Linguist, Hidden Ninja (gen) by Sam Walker is a humorous look at the 'Ninja Daniel' phenomenon.
  • In Reveille by the lady of shallot. Jack and Daniel wake up in bed together, and it's all the natives fault!  While in Objectives aliens force Jack and Daniel to have sex. Both fandom cliches written beautifully with humour and great dialogue.
  • Mnemophobia by Tripoli (gen). When SG-1 discovers Daniel alive and well and living someone else's life, all they want to do is bring him home. Someone else's life has other ideas. A very intriguing take on Daniel's 'deascension' , and a reaffirmation of both the unity and friendship of SG-1 and what actually makes Daniel, Daniel.
  • Desert Son by Roxie. (gen) Daniel is drawn in to the strange politics of a world waiting to be relocated to a better place. Is the price to help them too high? A long and fascinating story about fate, and how sometimes fate needs a hand.
  • Of This And Other Worlds by LRHBalzer. (gen) While Jack deals with a worse-for-wear Daniel, Sam tries to figure out her place in the universe. An epilogue to Points of View, seen through Sam's eyes. Sam contemplates the differences between the Sam Carter who married Jack in the other universe and herself.
  • Choose Your Battles by Brionhet  (gen) TPTB decide that the Marines need their own SG team and SG1 is given the job of giving them an introduction to the SGC. The jarheads decide they don't want any alien, civilian or woman telling them what to do and get really nasty. A lovely display of team from SG-1, some great confrontations and a mission gone wrong.
  • The Long and Winding Yellow Brick Road by Sideburns Season 7 rewritten, FDAS style *g*. An epic tale of adventure, love and Oz. A story that starts with a high level of angst and doesn't let up for some time. It's a J/D story, but it has an excellent Teal'c and Sam and is both a fun and involving read.
  • Britishisms by thucyken is a very dry and witty story where Jack muses on the enigma that Daniel presents to him, mostly in Briticisms, or as one reviewer wrote, Daniel the Pooh! Oh, just read it, it's funny and clever.
  • Used to it by Carolyn Claire. Daniel was naked by the fifth day. is a good a start as any for a J/D stranded on a desert planet type of story.
  • Pavlov by Kalimyre Daniel has a theory. Can you ever really have too many 'Aliens Make Them Do It' stories? and the answer is, not when they are as funny as this one.
  • The Annule Series by D Kelley consists of a number of stories. The stories are of Daniel, and his heritage, but while undeniably Daniel centric - as if that's a bad thing! - they're also wonderful affirmation of the love and friendship of SG-1and are therefore often great team stories as well. Fascinating and different.
  • Present and Future by ETS is a tag for the episode Past and Present. Daniel needs to discover in himself the man that Sha're fell in love with, and to do this he needs a break from the SGC and from SG-1.
  • Sinners Grove by Martha. Sometimes too much of the host survives This is scary, horrifying, frightening, violent, painful and damn well written. This Player Here, but in a Fiction is a completely different story from the first one being both funny and sly.
  • Stardust by Roxie is a Stargate/NCIS crossover. It's mainly NCIS and Daniel, or to be more specific, Daniel and Tony, although the rest of SG-1 are around and very much part of the story, but not with Daniel. I know nothing about NCIS, but I thoroughly enjoyed this adventure story with the most delightful development of a gentle understanding between Tony and the man he knows as John Doe for much of the story.
  • Bushido by lembas7 (gen) Recent events have Daniel resigning from the SGC. Yet on his last mission, his hidden talents with the sword are called upon to save his team. Captured by proud samurai, the only hope of SG-1 lies in Daniel following the Way of the Warrior . . . This is another story inspired by a comment by Michael Shanks that Daniel is a "Night time ninja, fighting crime of the streets of Colorado Springs. NID involvement and angst galore. Shidachi is the follow up and is at present time a WIP.
  • Return by Dira Sudis (gen) is a Team-centric post Fire and Water story that is well worth a read.
  • Rubber Sword by Milareppa  (gen) 'the pen is mightier than the sword', another Daniel as ninja stories. I'm enjoying them. *g*
  • A Lapse of Gravity by shalott is a team fic with a difference from Sam's pov. I'm not certain what I make of it, but it's certainly very intriguing.
  • Driving me crazy by Ximeria. In the days after Jack's return to wakefulness, he contemplates his new assignment. Daniel offers time to think and they go on a little trip in more than one sense. An enjoyable road trip that allows both Jack and Daniel to reflect on what they want from life now Jack has been offered the command of the SGC. The ending made me snigger. *g
  • Through the eyes of a Serpent by Eos, (gen) Daniel gets snaked, as seen through Daniel's eyes. The follow up Legacy of the Serpent continues the story and while very dark and disturbing at times, also has some wonderful one liners mostly from Jack and Daniel, but also from Sam and Teal'c.
  • Piece of Work by Joolz, (pre slash). Daniel has an admirer and it isn't Jack. Will an outside catalyst bring them together? Joolz uses Colonel Makepeace, pretty sympathetically, to give an outsiders view of Daniel and his relationship with Jack.
  • The Eye of Tiamat by Seanchaidh (gen) A missing Russian team sends SG-1 into the lair of the Goa'uld Marduk. An enjoyable team story originally published in Ashton Press's Splinters 'zine, and an AU version of The Tomb.
  • A Rock and a Hard Place (gen) by Sam Walker. To save Daniel's life, Jack has to do that hardest of all things: talk. While this has a measure of angst, it is mostly a Jack/Daniel friendship story, as well as a story of the SG-1 and many in the SGC working together. It is also very, very funny in parts.
  • Hives, Hiccups and Sprains by Aimless. Jack's mouth gets everyone into trouble. A funny story with a wickedly apt ending. Go, Daniel, go!
  • The Box by Sam Walker is a short intriguing, sad little retrospective from Cassie's pov.
  •  A Recital of Intimate Works by merrin  is described by the author as a character study. It's a study of all four of the characters of SG-1 and also a stream of consciousness. I liked it, there are a lot of fascinating nuggets of information in the short sketches merrin writes.
  • Willemakee by Mary Jane is a death story, but it is also a story about life, love and possibilities. It is both heart breaking and beautiful. Even if you don't normally read death stories, read this and weep, but also dream.
  • The Company You Keep by Sori is a warm friendship and more piece, that delves into the type of friendship between Jack and Daniel in a very interesting way. I like this, and I very much like the characterisation of both men.
  • Reach the dawn by Eos is an alternative and intriguing look at Season 7
  • Halflife by Tripoli (gen) is an intriguing and involving post Meridian tale that provides us a picture into Teal'c, Sam and even Jonas' perceptions of events, but concentrates on the relationship - and how Daniel's ascension has affected it - between Jack and Daniel. Tripoli has Daniel reflect heavily on the 'life' he is living as an Ascended and how the Ascendeds' views and principles still conflict so strongly with what he was and what he still is. A very good read.
  • Grounded by Pares. "If I hadn't died so many times already, I'd guess I was having a midlife crisis." Daniel tells Jack. So Jack decides to help him out of it. A short and beautifully written character study.
  • Four Hundred Days by Molly a bitter sweet, painful AU tag for 100 Days.
  • Temenos by Seanchaidh is an 'aliens made me do it' story that's enjoyable and well worth a read.
  • You Can Go Home Again by ELG.  Part of Scribe's 'Shower Series'. (gen) After 'Double Jeopardy', Jack needs all his team safe and together, but does Daniel want to remain a part of SG-1? A great read, Daniel reaction to Sam's explanation of Black Holes is wonderful, but my absolute favourite lines in the story are: There was a pause before Daniel processed what he'd just said then darted him a surprised look. "Are you being all...cosmic and metaphorical?" O'Neill considered the point for a moment and then nodded again. "Pretty much." Daniel pulled on his jacket. "Well stop it, you're making me nervous."
  • Rock, Toilet Paper, Scissors  by Tallulah (gen) Simple sounds can have complicated meanings, and simple games can be played for complicated reasons. A team story with a focus on the Jack/Daniel friendship and banter, beautifully written, charming and funny.
  • Repeat again from the Start by Otter. Jack could taste Guinness and Daniel on his tongue. He leaned i
  • n closer, and pressed his mouth against Daniel's mouth, and it tasted just the same. Jack/Daniel/Sam  I don't normally go in for this pairing, but this short Windows of Opportunity based story is just so intriguing.
  • Straight Roads by Cappuccino is a Daniel/Krycek pairing. She says it's her dream pairing, mine would be Daniel/Mulder, perhaps I'll have to write one myself. Daniel's love for Jack is alluded to, but the promised sequel never happened. However, I like this for Krycek's observations on Daniel. 
  • The Devil his Due by Saladscream. A funny, witty, clever and intelligent 'silly fic'. Good characterisation of Jack and a angry, biting, sarcastic, highly articulate and possessive Daniel! Go Daniel, go!
  • There Are No Words by Paddy and its sequel, There Are No words, Nothing I Can Say. The first is from Daniel's point of view, the second Jack's, and both are well written and highly evocative stories. I think the author manages to pull off writing deep emotion without ever sinking into trite sentimentality and smarm.
  • Syllepsis by Komos. A delightful story, deep, intense and occasionally painful, involving Jack, Daniel and Jack's ex-wife Sara that manages to avoid all the typical cliches and tells us something interesting about all three.
  • Fucked by anon.  This is very well written, and Daniel's musings about himself, his relationship with Jack and why he has allowed it to progress as it has are very, very intriguing and fascinating. I guess I believe Daniel is far too much his own man to ever allow this situation to arise, and that Jack is both more self aware and 'Daniel aware' than this story would have us believe. However, read it and make up your own mind.
  • Endurance by Destina  Hot Jack/Daniel teasing and action. I loved this and sniggered myself silly at the opening paragraphs!
  • Level with the Shore by Talesby. Her first Stargate story, wonderfully written and painful in the extreme!
  • What goes around by Teand is hysterically funny, read it and weep, oops I mean laugh!
  • Illumination by ELG is a new one to me, and I thought I'd read all her stories. It is sensual, beautiful and haunting.
  • Double Bed by Komos is angsty, painful. bittersweet and good. Set around Heroes I and II.
  • Still Life with cliche by Komos.  I loved Sam in this, I loved her anger - both for herself and for Jack and Daniel, her pain and finally her care and concern for Daniel. I loved Daniel to pieces and found myself comparing his hesitancy and ardour with Sam against how I felt that Jack would have dealt with the same situation. I didn't get to grips with Jack so much, but did feel his anguish at the sheer fucked up situation. Painful, a shock ending and damn good rendering of the 'aliens made us do it' cliche. Here is her web page - Komos
  • Batter my heart, three-personed God, for you. by LC. This is very different from my normal reading. No Daniel, Jack, Sam, no team. Pre the SGC. Just Teal'c, Drey'auc and their 'god'. Painful, but clever.
  • Blame it on the aliens by Dusty. The old 'aliens made us have sex' cliche written with humour and in a great Jack voice.
  • Do not Stray by Otter. She learns to kiss with her whole mouth, like she's trying to swallow down his soul for safekeeping, and sometimes she sings the old songs into his ear. A beautiful and short look at Daniel and Sha're's life before the Stargate was unburied.
  • Four Characters in Search of Good Writing by Xochiquetzl. Gen. A clever parody written around the time of Season 5/6.
