Someone wrote me a last-minute Alliance-Union treat in trickortreatex, picking up my ridiculous crack prompt about the Hellburner crew in an AU where they're all office workers, and it is hilarious and adorable and completely in character and basically PERFECT. ♥ ♥ ♥

SQUEE!!

I've had some things hanging around for a long time that I've meant to rec but never got around to it.

Doctor Who:
2000 years of boredom, or how Rory Williams made some friends by puppetdumbly - I don't read much Doctor Who fic, but I lurked on dwsanta this year and stumbled across this little gem about what Rory did during his 2000 years of solitude. It's awesome and such a wonderful missing scene for the episode.

From sga_santa - I expect that I don't really need to rec gen stories to the gen-leaning portions of my flist because you probably read all of them, but you all might have missed a couple of rather neat team stories that also include incidental pairings:

Forbidden Planet by saffronhouse, PG - There is a very background, established McKay/Sheppard relationship, but mostly it's about the team hiding out on Earth after an attack on one of them, with a neat Ronon POV and lovely team interactions.

Welcome Home by penknife, NC-17 - This is a "Return" tag and it contains an NC-17 John/Teyla scene, but otherwise it's a series of little vignettes with John rotating between different people on Atlantis as they all settle back in. It's a lovely slice of (Atlantis) life.

I swear there was more multifandom stuff I wanted to rec, but I can't remember what now ...
