Link: Five Joint Missions, Post Retrograde (LJ temporarily down; here's the link at her website)

Why This Must Be Read:
I don't follow SGA, so why do I adore Martha Wilson's Retrograde series so much? I have no idea, except that she's a marvelous writer with a wonderful gift for prose and dialogue and a fantastic grasp of characterization. Then again, I've followed her to fandoms I don't know, just for the chance to read her work... :)

Five Joint Missions, Post Retrograde puts us right in the middle of the Retrograde AU. (If you're unfamiliar with the storyline, it's enough to know that Atlantis was cut off from Earth for three years, and that thanks to the NID, the Atlantis expedition is still very wary of the people of Earth). As the title suggests, it's five missions, from the SGA characters' POV, that various team members of SG-1 undertake while they're on Atlantis. There's humor and pathos and lovely, deft scene-spinning, and you'll be reading this with a grin on your face... right before you hurriedly click on the link to read more of this excellent AU!



So John was captured by the Genii again, and he really wasn't looking forward to how they meant to top the fun and excitement of the last time. Tied up in a chair -- again -- he tried, "Remember what happened to Kolya?"

Garin, Kolya's dumber successor, smiled coldly at him. "Weir is an even bigger fool than I thought. She's already given me a scientist in exchange for you. Should I see how many more of your people I can force her to hand over?"

"What the hell?" John said, then a group of guards brought the "scientist" into the room. John bit his lip to control his expression. The man was wearing a borrowed tan uniform and a pair of glasses, and he did sort of look like a scientist. A scientist who worked out a lot, and had a gold thingy on his forehead. "Oh no, she sent...Dr. Teal'c."

Teal'c inclined his head in greeting and said, "Indeed." Then he picked up the nearest guard and started using him to hit the others.
