WILLOW: When'd you get back?
BUFFY: Uh, just now. Dad drove me down. And I figured you two losers would be getting into some kind of trouble.
WILLOW: I think we had the upper hand. I-in a subtle way.
BUFFY: Does either of you even have a cross? Very sloppy.

Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: Teyla Emmagan, John Sheppard, Rodney McKay, Ronon Dex
Rating: Gen
Length: 1934
Creator Links: Punk on AO3, DesireeArmfeldt on AO3, DesireeArmfeldt on Audiofic Archive
Themes: Working together, Teams, Friendship

Summary: The sun is high overhead, the sky a brilliant, cloudless blue.

Reccer's Notes: This is told from Teyla's POV, on a somewhat frustrating off-world mission where John and Rodney are being particularly dense and snarky. Luckily, Ronon's there to unexpectedly save the day! I especially love the strong sense of place and of the natural world in the story.

Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: Genfic. John Sheppard, Rodney McKay, Evan Lorne, Ronon Dex, Carson Beckett, Teyla Emmagan, Original characters
Rating: Teen
Length: 79,623
Content Notes: no AO3 warnings apply. Grim at times, as it depicts an aspect of WWII.
Creator Links: kristen999 on AO3, everybetty on LJ
Themes: Working together, Action/adventure, Teamwork, Friendship, Genfic, AU: historical, Novel-length

Summary: WWII-based AU. The Team as we know it has been transplanted to the South Pacific.

Reccer's Notes:
This tour de force is a novel-length story by

kristen999, assisted by everybetty, an historical AU set in Papua-New Guinea, in WWII. It's pretty male-centric because of that, but does include Teyla as a local liaison with intel about the enemy. It's got lots of plot, great action and adventure, and an excellent sense of place - you can almost feel the tropical heat making you sweat and hear the mosquitoes whine. The story is illustrated throughout with lots of period photos from the time. It's told from all of the team's POVs, particularly John's (he's a pilot, of course, with Rodney and Ronon on his flight crew). Naturally, John gets thoroughly whumped, in the best genfic tradition. There's tons of atmosphere, friendship and teamwork, and it's a really great read.

Buffy walks into her dorm room. She starts to undo the straps on the back of her shirt to take it off as she heads towards her bed.
GILES: Uh, good morning.
Buffy turns around in shock. She sees Giles and Willow behind him at work at Willow's computer. She starts to redo her top.
BUFFY: Giles! I didn't know you were here.
GILES: Oh really?
Willow asks Buffy encouragingly - without speaking out loud: Everything OK with Parker?
BUFFY: I, uh, studying. At the library. (Giles gives her a disbelieving look.) All Saturday night... Uh, you know what. I'm an adult now and it's none of your business where I was.
