Snippet: Jack had his mouth open to argue when Daniel did the whole ‘absent’ thing again. Eyes blank. The muscles of his face relaxed, his hands falling to his lap. It was a short lapse this time.
“Dakara.” Daniel cleared his throat then shot back the rest of his scotch, wincing. “I hate it when they do that.”
Jack’s eyebrows tried to lift off his face.
“Use my voice,” Daniel explained.
“Well, sure.” What. The. Ever-loving. Hell.
"I was just shown that Dakara was the first place the Alterans settled in this galaxy. And that they left a few things behind when they moved on.” Daniel slumped, pinching the bridge of his nose.“
Someone wants you to go after this thing.”
“Yes, I figured that much out myself.”

As the Goa'uld Ba'al on Stargate SG-1, he was the best of the baddies. Not just a one note villain, Ba'al was smart, funny, and always seemed to know which side to stand on, which side would inevitably win.

With fans, Cliff Simon was amazing. Friendly, funny, he'd talk for hours, and seemed genuinely concerned about the fan experience.

Although 58 is far too young to lose him, Cliff died doing something he loved, out in nature, living life to the fullest. As fans, we grieve, lifting his family and friends up and hoping his new location is a happy one.

I finally finished my Adventures of an Interfering Archaeologist, AKA, Daniel Jackson hops into my other favorite fandoms and fixes things! Huzzah! This one, obviously a crossover with Quantum Leap, had to wait until I was finished with my second original novel. And now, voila!

GEN, no pairings

Rated T for language

Tag for Shades of Gray

Characters: Jack, Daniel, Sam, Teal'c, Hammond, Thor, Travell, Narim.

Warnings: Real world consequences, no quick fix.

Summary: The fallout of Jack's black-ops mission to catch Maybourne and Makepeace could have looked something like this. How the SGC managed to go forward from this is anyone's guess.

 C'mon Stargate peeps, let's give our boys another great round of fics! I'm here as your cheerleader, shoving my pom-poms down your throat. Any gathering of Stargate fans has my heart, as always. If you'd like to participate (1000 words? You can do that!) please see this post by the lovely princessofgeeks  and leave her a message.

Fair warning, this series of stories is seriously AU. Abundantly. But, hey, Daniel Jackson is my hero and, in my mind, he's always going to try to do the right thing. Death, Ascension, that's not going to stop him. Remember that time he was shut up in prison and his cellmate asked him if he ever stopped? His reply was, "Not until I'm dead … And sometimes not even then."

This series takes Daniel into some of my other favorite fandoms, starting with Harry Potter and continuing (second story is up) with NCIS. He interferes. He fixes things. And, this time, The Others are a lot more cooperative. Daniel has some life experiences that can help others - and that is what he's going to do.

I'd love to hear what you think. Also, got a universe that needs fixing? An idea? Share it, please. If I have any knowledge of the universe you're interested in, I'll mention it to Daniel. He's already planning a trip to Torchwood, Criminal Minds, and the MCU. Oh, and my Daniel keeps things Gen.

Day 10 Create a fanwork. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

The fanworks I create are stories. Stories are processes. I'm not able to create one on the fly - I know some authors can, but that isn't in my bag of tools.

I am working on a new series on AO3 called The Ascended Chronicles of an Interfering Archaeologist
Interfering Daniel

The first story (SG1/Harry Potter) is finished and posted and I'm currently working on the second, where Daniel visits the world of NCIS. It's a departure for me, utterly AU, with lots of deus ex machina bits from our favorite blue-eyed ascended one. I'm happy to post a link to the second part when it's finished, but, realistically, it won't be within the duration of the Snowflake Challenge.

PS: Snowflake is a great challenge. Fandom joining together to post, to review, to share - don't feel it's too late to take part if you haven't - all days' challenges are completely open for contribution. I'd love to see some old friends and new posting again.

Day 3 of the Snowflake Challenge urges us to share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favorite interview, a book, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much.

I put this off for most of the day, my mind whirling with possibilities. I spent the day thinking, putting the fandoms closest to my heart in some kind of order. Stargate SG1. Harry Potter. NCIS. Avengers. Leverage. The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

I couldn't.

My fandoms are important to me for very different reasons. The Man from UNCLE was a first fandom, when I was a girl. It is nostalgic, the character of Ilya one of my first crushes. I reminds me of that warmth in my heart, that excitement, every time the show came on.

Leverage was Christian Kane. Hilarious. Hot. His interaction with Hardison made me smile. Damian Moreau was his "moment."

Avengers is Hawkeye. Jeremy Renner in all his latex-clad glory. His is a character I wanted more from, so fanfic was a gift. His moment? When he comes back from Loki's control to find out that Phil is dead.

NCIS has always been Tony DiNozzo and his untapped potential. While Gibbs' character became more and more overbearing and "superhuman", at the same time, he became a vigilante that I could not support. Tony was the underdog, never allowed to be the hero, even when he dived into the Anacostia to save Gibbs and Maddie. I felt for him. NCIS stories that explore his history or heroism, how he changes his mind and stands up for himself - and to Gibbs - are satisfying to read and to write. Tony's moment? Trapped in the morgue with a killer, he saves the girl.

Harry Potter came around when my daughter was young and we discovered his world together. And Severus Snape will always be our favorite character. Always.

But, finally, SG1 is family. It's not just about the show - it's about the friendships, the family I've made through our love of Jack and Daniel and Sam and Teal'c, of Janet and Hammond. Of Bra'tac and Jacob.

So, here is my moment, the one I settled on when dwelling on this idea. In the first episode of Stargate SG1, Children of the Gods, Daniel has lost his wife, he's lost his Abydos family, and he's returned to Earth after more than a year of living on another world. He's standing, alone, in the concrete tunnels of the SGC, utterly bereft. Until Col. Jack O'Neill comes along.

There's a moment, here. A moment when these two characters' eyes meet. They worked together to save themselves and an innocent population on an alien world a year ago. These two very different men - one on his last, suicide mission because of his dead son, one with nothing to lose, betting everything on this new future - found their connection. And then said good-bye for, what they believed was forever. Here, in that tunnel beneath Colorado Springs, Jack and Daniel find that connection remains. Daniel reaches out to Jack, empty, grieving, at a loss, and Jack reaches back, offering a room, a shoulder, the understanding of another man who has lost everything.

Boom. That's the moment.

It's Jack and Daniel. Always and forever. That connection, that friendship. It's what makes this series my heart-fandom.

Story Title: Where the River Meets the Sea
Author:marzipan77 
Characters/Pairing: GEN. Daniel Jackson, Jack O'Neill, Samantha Carter, Teal'c, George Hammond, Janet Frasier, Tonane, Xe'ls, T'akaya and a few surprises.
Rating: T, one character death, not a main character.
Word Count: 30,500
Summary: Daniel's return from Ascension was quick - his return to duty at the SGC, to his family, SG-1, even quicker. So quick that he might not be finished. As determined as he is to get his old life back, he's not quite the same - the mission to help Ryac and Bra'tac on Erebus certainly told him that. While Washington is eager to find out what he knows, some old friends need SG-1's help - and they intend to help Daniel, too. Whether he wants them to or not. Let's not even discuss Jack O'Neill's reaction. Spoilers for Spirits, The Fifth Man, and Orpheus. Inspired by artwork by the talented sg1mouse. Beta-ed by the fabulous DennyJ. All remaining errors are my own.
