grav_ityLast night, I started re-reading ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
melyanna's semi-epic Season 8/Season 1 SG-1/Stargate Atlantis crossover THE CROSSROADS OF ESHU, wherein Sam gets transported to an Alternate Universe where Elizabeth is still in charge of the SGC and...well, much awesomeness transpires. This wasn't the first AU I ever read, but it's a really good one. Lots of consideration went into picking the divergence point, and then structuring the world and the reasons for it. And then the ending is just excellent. :)
Plus, THERE IS A SHINY TRAILER, which will always have a special place in my heart, because that is how I metfaith_king:
(Jack and John have a conversation in an elevator that NEVER ACTUALLY HAPPENED. I love it.)
(Also,melyanna has both a Mitchell AND a Caldwell in this story...neither of whom had been introduced to the audience when she wrote it.)
Anyway, I'm now in full out Atlantis-mode. I gave some thought to re-reading![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
stargate_ren, so I read up to the Solstice story, and then scrolled down the page to see how many more were left and, WOW, THERE WERE A LOT. But I guess it's been half a decade. ;)
FANDOM, I LOVE YOU. That's basically what it comes down to. As usual. :)
