Why This Must Be Read: [profile] malayneseahawk wrote Ignoti Nulla Cupido, in which Daniel visits an AU that seems perfect. But this superb remix shows that the grass truly isn't greener, even if might appear that way to the outside observer.

Great characterization and superbly uneasy undercurrents leave the reader with the sobering thought that consequences and trade-offs always exist... and that really, our own SG-1 universe is a pretty good one, after all.
