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)

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]

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

[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?

[water-soter.livejournal.com]

Hehe, that bad huh? Okay, I'm going to use all of my pet peeves in summaries.

Rodney, Sheppard, a problem that no one saw coming in Atlantis. Can Rodney and Sheppard fix it before things get messier?

[sholio]

Oh! Plumber's Helper, right?

Nice obfuscation. :D

[aelfgyfu_mead]

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

[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.)

[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?)

[kristen999.livejournal.com]

Yep!

Oh since you were so good here's another one.

Rodney and John find a room that might have been a pet store? (could be wrong) Ronon ends up putting on one of the dog collars and things go downhill.

[sholio]

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

[sholio]

That's "Bad Dog, No Biscuit". (Oh, they *should* find an Ancient pet store; that would be hilarious! Or a zoo, or something.)

[kristen999.livejournal.com]

Yep thats it! Now "I" sound like one of those people. Haven't people written fics where aliens collect John or Rodney for a zoo?

*scratches head* I think there are some out there, just not sure if any are any good..your thoughts?

This fun BTW!

[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

[aelfgyfu_mead]

It works for either, though I was looking at "Pictures for Jeannie" when inspiration struck. :-)

[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!)

[greyias.livejournal.com]

*looks around shiftily* I, um, don't have a WIP on this concept at all.

No.

[kristen999.livejournal.com]

Oh really? Sounds cool.

How many WIPs do you have? :-P

[greyias.livejournal.com]

...too many. Way too many. (I think the count is at least in the twenties on SGA alone. D'oh, and I started a new one today, of course).

[greyias.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that was it. I thought about trying again, but apparently I broke my brain on the last one.

[sholio]

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

[sholio]

I still think you totally win this thread with the "graphic femslash" description. That's classic.

[sholio]

I've read a couple that put them in zoos, but I don't think I've read one that wasn't horribly creepy. Although, maybe it's not possible to do that concept in a way that *isn't* horribly creepy ...
