amireal and laceymcbain have written some of my favorite SGA stories. You've made me smile just reminding me of them. :-)

[popkin16]

They're amazing, aren't they? I definitely love their work. ;skjdaf I am so happy I made you smile!

The first is one of my favourites

I have read the last before but I have 3 new fics to read now thank you

[popkin16]

Oh, me too. One of my favorite fics by amireal, to be honest. The UST is fantastic.

I hope you like the three new ones :D

I think "Care In The Holding" was the first McShep fic I ever read/saved. And if not the first, then one of the first. That was before I had watched a single episode. But these two guys just drew me into their world before I even "met" them.

Thanks for all the recs. My random reading habits mean I still have a lot of great things to discover.

[popkin16]

Oh wow! Fond memories then, huh? :D I was reading fic before I saw an episode of the show too - something about the boys just draws you in, keeps you ensnared and enthralled.

You're so welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying.

And if there's one thing the McShep fandom has a lot of, it's great things :)

Oh, I just love all of these. ♥ You're making me want to delve back into the wonderful SGA fandom again. :D Sadly, I am currently hooked on due South and Game of Thrones.

As usual, I love your recs! Still deeply entrenched in SGA, I see. I love fandoms like that; wonderful stories, amazing characters, and fantastic writers and artists whose sheer number can leave you with plenty to read for a long time to come. ♥ *happy sigh*♥

I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH JENN.

These are all wonderful fics, aren't they? So many good ones posted years ago - it's kind of sad how old some of these fics are, now. You should totally delve back in - the fandom is still going, there are many wonderful new fics posted :P Oh man, due south is fantastic, isn't it? RayK/Fraser is adorable! I'm watching Game of Thrones, though I feel no urge to read fic for it.

Still deeply entrenched in SGA, I see.

Mm, yeah! I still can't quite put my finger on what it is about it that's grabbed me so tightly. I just love, love the characters and the show and the fic. I honestly hope I stick around for some time to come!

[kakairupowns.livejournal.com]

I'VE MISSED YOU TOO, MISSY! SO. MUCH. OMG.

But I don't flail as much anymore for SGA and you still adore SGA and I didn't really know what else to talk about because SGA is so HUGE and I do love it but my love is split and spread around in, like, dozens of fandoms at once with one or two being most prevalent and screaming more obnoxiously for my attention but I MISS YOU and I'm happy you're still so much in love with this fandom because if you can stick to one thing for so long then that gives me hope that I can stick to one thing for just as long - I just haven't found it yet - because I'm so flighty and borderline-ADD and I just -- *breathes*

So. Yes. ♥

The older they are, the more I seem to love them. It's amazing. I'll be reading a WONDERFUL story, and I'll check the date it was posted and I'm like, "Wow. I could have read this four years ago?" I may give SGA another go, and probably SG-1 at the same time. Not really crossovers, but the two fandoms kind of go hand-in-hand for me. I loved SG-1 first, but SGA has its own special place in my heart.

I looooooooove due South omg. FRASER. RAY. RAYRAYRAYRAYRAY. I keep looking for -- but can't seem to find, to my disappointment, fic where Fraser sings to/for Ray. I love his singing voice. ♥ And I know Ray would just melt. He wouldn't necessarily show it, but still. :D

I don't feel the need to look for GoT fic either. I mean, what would I ship? It seems like the show does enough of its own shipping without my input, lol. They even have incest covered -- not my thing, but still. I think my favorite Lannister is Tyrion, definitely. Ugh, and I love Arya SO MUCH. I can't wait to see more of her.

Um… oops? I think I've almost reached the word limit for comments. Geez! I babble. :D Oh, and I do believe you will stick in this fandom for quite a long time to come! It's a very good niche for you.

[popkin16]

Although I'm still greatly in love with SGA, I am in other fandoms, and I'd be more than happy to talk to you about them :P And it's okay that you aren't sticking with one fandom, that you move from one to another~ Think of all the widespread fic you've read - it's kind of amazing XD

I haven't come across any fic where Fraser sings to Ray, either. Have you tried ds_ficfinders? You could put in a request there, and maybe someone will find something.

Omg I love Arya and Tyrion too ♥ They're two of my favorites. I think Arya/Gendry is cute though. I also like Brienne of Tarth, though I don't really ship her with anybody - though I do know Brienne/Jaime is pretty popular, especially amongst those who have read the books.

I hope I do stick around :D I love it!
