throwback thursday: SGA

laporcupina:

As a fanfic author, I am not historically someone who gets a lot of… multimedia appreciation, shall we say. Some authors get lots of fanart, some get covers for their stories, some get podfics, some get other kinds of craftiness, but I am generally not one of those some. (This is not a complaint or a veiled plea for such, simply a fact based on almost twenty years of fandom.) Which does not mean I have never gotten anything – I have and when I have, it has been wonderfully executed and very humbling. Case in point:

The Physics of Survival series podfics by ArwenLune

Object in Motion

Impetus

The Lorentz Factor

The series can be summarized as “An Atlantis Marine as a Runner and those he left behind.” It’s not a light topic – torture, imprisonment, grief – and features seven narrators over three stories and five of them are OCs and that is both why I am not more mainstream as a fanficcer and why I was surprised when ArwenLune asked. 

I could not have asked for a better performance if I’d commissioned it. The readings are wonderful, in part because of the amazing preparation that went into it – I got emails about name and acronym pronunciation, etc. I know Arwen Lune wished for a better reception for them – as I did for her sake – but… This is, to my knowledge, the only time I’ve ever been podficced and I consider the bar set high enough to be seen from space.

Fic Rec:  The Not So Special Series by Lori is restricted to AO3 users only. (If you need an account for AO3, I have two invitations. Contact me via my email on my profile page.  You can also request an invitation at the invite request page.  It’s very worth having an acct.)

This awesome series is Gen, John & Rodney friendship, Sentinel/Guides are known. John is a Sentinel and pilot in the Air Force, Rodney is a scientist and becomes his reluctant Guide for reasons you really need to read about.  The military details, the angle this AU approaches the SGC from, the ‘verse it implies, the awesome Jack O’Neill in it are so interesting and refreshing. +++comfort fic

Thank you so much for rec! I’ve gone through and unlocked the series. It means so much to me that people like the older works, even gen ones!
