xparrot: Chopper reading (Default)
[personal profile] xparrot
Two things you have to understand.

A) I discovered Dragonflight in the young-adults section of my local library when I was in the seventh grade; it was my introduction to the science fiction genre, and I read the first trilogies on a bi-monthly basis for several years. This was long before I knew what fanfic was, and I haven't actually read anything in the series for years, but it's deeply carved into my mental fanscape all the same.

B) I don't usually go for the really extreme AU fanfic - don't mind alternate timelines or alternate endings/futures, but when it comes to putting chars in wholly different settings I tend to wonder why not write an original story? Somehow SGA is the exception to this rule, however, because not only are there scads of stories in which John-and-Rodney are living in Texas/living on Nantucket/in an orchestra/penguins?/wild turkeys???/a RAINBOW AND A UNICORN OMGWTFBBQ FANDOM???? - but they're all outrageously entertaining and I'm finding myself craving more. I think it's because the chars, most especially our dear Dr. McKay, have such distinctive voices that wherever you put them or whatever you make them, they're still unmistakably recognizably them.

Given the above, I suppose this was only a matter of time. I'm just astonished someone else didn't beat me to it.
