Okay, I just *have* to do this one!

Snatched from pretty much everywhere:

The thing is, when people look for stories, they always make it sound like badfic. Now, often that's because it really is badfic, but sometimes it's good and they just suck at describing the story.

So, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to summarize badly any one (or more!) of my stories and I'll try to guess which it is. You could even pretend you don't remember the pairing or fandom to make it harder to guess.

(Go take a look at sgastoryfinders for examples of the real thing.)

A few places where you can find stories of mine to mock summarize: my SGA story page, my ff.net page (multiple fandoms), or the various fic tags in this journal (SGA, Supernatural, etc).

So, I'm trying to find this story, and I don't remember much, but I know that there was this planet, and I think it was a snowy planet, and everyone was accusing Rodney of crashing Caldwell's ship on purpose. I think Elizabeth was stoned, or something, Sheppard flew a jumper into a rock wall, and then Jeannie showed up to help Rodney. Oh, and Caldwell was there with hot chocolate. Can anyone help me?

(Hee hee hee. I'm sure I can do better! I just couldn't resist a first try)

[sholio]

LOL ... "The Killing Frost"! Pretty easy, but you really made me laugh with stoned Elizabeth and Caldwell with the hot chocolate. :D

[aelfgyfu_mead]

Aw, crud! I was gonna do that one! But Elizabeth stoned--I like your version.

[water-soter.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, I do love and challenge, btw, I love your icon.

Okay, here goes:

What could possibly be worse than dealing with the Wraith? Can Rodney and Sheppard find the solution before it's too late?

[sholio]

Heh. I wasn't too crazy about POTC3 as a movie, but it did have some good lines!

Also, I think you just described 2/3 of my stories! Um. "Ghost in the Machine", just as a total random guess?

[kristen999.livejournal.com]

Okay here's two fics and I can't recall much! Please oh please could someone help me!

1) Sheppard lost his memory and I know Rodney is stuck babysitting some kids. And think it has something to do with Ronon or Ronon's tracking them maybe? I could be confused.

2)Rodney and Sheppard are hurt and I think there's a killer robot on the loose.

Thanks!

[sholio]

Heh! #1 is "Running on Empty" (I'm guessing); #2 is "Candle in the Dark".

Okay, so I read this one story one time, but I don't know who it's by or even what it was about. All I remember is that Rodney crashed his car and then some wraith put a bunch of rocks on him and John gave Teyla some pesos to buy a few tacos.

(Ow... that hurt.)

[sholio]

*winces* Ouch. I think you would have stumped me totally if not for that last bit ... it's "Long Road Home".

[aelfgyfu_mead]

Ooh! I've got it! There was this story--I don't remember what it was called, but I'm pretty sure it was femslash. Really graphic, too! And the boys were obnoxious (but isn't that every fic, any author?)

[sholio]

Okay, you came pretty close to stumping me on this one ... but that's "Postcards to Jeannie", isn't it? Or maybe "Pictures for Jeannie", since that's closer to how I described it.

Very nicely done! 'Graphic' femslash ... I think you totally win this round. :D

[leesa_perrie]

Okay, in this story I’m looking for I think Teyla gets sneaky and leads the team into an ambush. Um, something about Rodney and a dying girl.

(That's probably not hard enough, but the best I could do!)

[sholio]

Ah, "That Which is Broken"! (The dying girl gave it away!) :)

[parisntripfan.livejournal.com]

You know, it is hard to come up with a bad summary for such good fic...

But here is one

I am looking for a SGA fic where everyone has amnesia and Rodney has to pretend to be Carson.

[sholio]

LOL ... that's "Shattered Things"! (And thanks!)

[anniehow.livejournal.com]

So, there's this story, right? And I'm pretty sure I didn't just imagine it but, like, actually read it, ok? And it's Radek/Ronon (I know!) and it's really sweet and it has radek being all shy and talking coockies in bed to Ronan. Can anyone point me to it? Or any other Radek/Ronon fluff? All ratings acceptable, but NC/17 preferred LOL

ETA: obvioulsy meant "takeing cookies"! *doh!*

[sholio]

ahahaha... That's my Radek-Ronon valentines ficlet, but you did a lovely job of capturing the general ... tone of that sort of request. :D

[dovil.livejournal.com]

The story where it was cold and everyone was really cold, what with it being really cold and all.


What? You describe the cold amazingly well. :)

[sholio]

I live in Alaska! If there's one thing I know how to describe, it's cold...

And there are actually several of my stories this could be, but I'll go with "Cold Comforts."

[kristen999.livejournal.com]

Okay here's one I thought I saved.

Rodney and Sheppard are walking down a road, looking at photos or watching old movies? I think Rodney gets pissed and calls John an a$$hole and John makes fun of Rodney's winter clothing.

Does this ring any bells?

[sholio]

Oh wow, this is pretty good! I really can't think of anything I'm sure of. "Between the Lines" is about the closest I can come up with.

[kyuuketsukirui.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'm looking for this fic where John has a son. With Teyla, maybe? I definitely remember it being John/Teyla.

[sholio]

That's "Regrets" (which, by the way, thank you for the rec!).

[helen-c.livejournal.com]

So, I'm looking for this fic, and all I remember is that there's a lot of water, and Rodney panics, and I'm pretty sure at some point, they play I Spy, but I could be wrong.

[sholio]

Steal away! I stole it too ...

And that's got to be "Plumber's Helper."

[naye]

I'm looking for this story where Rodney is living with John, but then Teyla moves in and starts cooking for John, and then Rodney decides to leave him!

(It's an easy one to guess, but - ow. It kind of hurts to do that to the poor story, at the same time as I find it really funny! XD)

[sholio]

XDDDD

... is it "Long Road Home"?

[naye]

(Oh, dear. Looking at sgastoryfinders was kind of tragically inspiring...!)

Does anyone know which story it is where John thinks Rodney is his brother and Rodney is chasing Wraith with sticks or something?

[sholio]

I have sgastoryfinders on my watch list mostly for the entertainment value ...! XD I do find new fic to read every once in a while, but probably 90% of the stuff that's asked about are things I would never in a million years read, and the descriptions are so hilarious. (But, by the way? That whale story that's mentioned up near the top of the comm? It's really very good! I read it awhile back and liked it a lot ... it's angst-a-riffic and, if I remember right, pretty nearly gen, if not quite. You should try it!)

Anyway! The one you're asking about is "Running on Empty". Love the "chasing Wraith with sticks" part! Poor, poor Rodney.

[trystings.livejournal.com]

Hi im new to this site but i hope someone can help me. im looking for this fic that i read a long time ago. theres' a fire in the wall and Sheppard gets sick and he and rodney make out (mcshep) but don't like it and argue. thanks in advance!

[sholio]

*hee* That's "Breathe"!

[sheron]

Hmm, I don't remember the story exactly, but it had something about Hermiod being naked and I think Rodney almost drowned in a frozen lake but then he saved Caldwell(?) from a wolf-thing.

[sholio]

Hee! "The Killing Frost".
