Completed WIP: The Light of a Fading Sun

[sholio]

It's done. THANK GOODNESS. And thank you so much to sgatazmy and kodiak_bear for beta-editing and general hand-holding. They really went above and beyond the call of beta duty on this one, particularly when I started going into stressed-out OMG I WILL STILL BE WRITING THIS STORY WHEN I'M 95 mode towards the end.

Title: The Light of a Fading Sun
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Rating: A strong T/PG-13 (language, violence)
Spoilers: Through "Sunday". Huge ones for that episode, several big ones for previous eps from all three seasons.
Summary: Perhaps the only thing worse than blowing up 5/6 of a solar system is not blowing it up at all. A long, somewhat dark AU in which the characters drift apart following the Siege -- but the events on Doranda will have far-ranging and unexpected consequences. And theirs will not be the only universe affected.

This is a trifle bleaker than my usual fare ... but give it a chance; you may be surprised.

ETA: alena_malfoy made FADING SUN FANART! *squees* It is here! No spoilers for the story (but lots of pretty).

Thank you so much! (And welcome back, by the way! I missed you on the internets!) Thank you for the lovely review -- I really enjoyed exploring the Doranda situation, as well as its darker implications for our universe, and trying to present them as scared and desperate people rather than bad guys. I'm glad that came through, and I'm delighted that you enjoyed the story.
