SG-1 beta help?

[sholio]

I wonder if there is anyone out there who would like to beta a story that's very, very different from what I normally write?

It's an episode tag to the SG-1 series finale, with large spoilers. It is also R-rated and chock-ful of character pairings: Teal'c/Sam, Teal'c/Cameron, Sam/Cameron and Teal'c/Daniel/Vala. (Yes, I've written slash. And orgies. I'm still in shock.)

Since I've never written SG-1 *or* slash before, it would be helpful to get another set of eyes on it to tell me if I've gone horribly wrong anywhere.

Anyone?

EDIT: Thanks to those who replied! I'll post the finished story shortly.

I just wrote my first non-gen story. I understand your shock :)

I'd love to help beta - but, unfortunately, I'm still in season 8 so I don't know Cameron or Vala at all and I'm trying to avoid S10 spoilers...and I doubt you want to wait a month or two for me to catch up.
Which I realize makes this about the most useless comment ever...

But yay for writing out of the standard mold! It's a little fun.

*grin* No problems. You'll be able to read it when you get to that point!

This is such a total departure for me that it's downright weird. I've written mild romance for canonically established couples, but that's about the farthest I've ever gone in that direction. But this one has SEX and lots of it!

I'll definitely read it when I get there. I'm so antsy to see it, but I know it'll be better if I wait so I know what on earth is going on.

Yep. Mine mentioned two canon couples and one non-canon and I wrote it and looked at it and asked myself "where on earth did that come from?" and I still was only brave enough to dance around the sex. And even when I finished it I still thought of it as gen.

*blinks* WOW. What thought process spurred this on??? And yes, I'll be happy to look at it...

[friendshipper.livejournal.com]

LOL! It sort of came out of my comment about bed-hopping in the episode thread. I thought "You know, I kind of want to write that..." and then I just sat down and cranked it out!

As you'll see, though, even my slash is sort of gen, if that makes any sense.

Since you haven't seen the episode, though, this IS hugely spoilerish for both the basic premise of the episode, and the way it ends. If you're okay with that, I'll send it on!

Suits me. I haven't dl'd it yet, but I'm planning on it.

[friendshipper.livejournal.com]

Sent!

Like I said in the email, the whole tag is sort of founded on a conversation at the end of the episode, so just ask if you have any questions about stuff that doesn't make sense.

Can't wati to read it , you have got me intrigued !!!

[friendshipper.livejournal.com]

Would you like to look it over before I post it? I don't need a thorough beta; I really just need to know if the pairings work.

[calijirl5150.livejournal.com]

Sure

Slash and sex. Whoo Hoo. I'm all anxious to see! :) heh.

I can give you a sneak preview if you'd like me to send it to you and just let me know if the pairings work for you. I've been tweaking one of them based on feedback from Kamelion.

[winter-elf.livejournal.com]

that'd be cool... looks around... I have no redeeming beta qualities though.

[friendshipper.livejournal.com]

You don't need to do a thorough beta ... I guess I'm just trying to figure out if the pairings and style work at all. The first person I showed it to had a problem with one of the pairings, and since I'm used to writing gen, I have no idea if that's a personal thing or if I'm not doing a very good job of conveying it.

On the other hand, if you'd be more comfortable not, you can just wait'll I post it. :)
