Limping Toward Bethlehem by Maayan (PG-13)

Pairing: None, really. Very brief mention of Sam/Jack, perhaps a hint of Daniel/Janet.
Author on LJ: Not that I'm aware.
Author Website: butcheredart.net (under construction)
Why this must be read:

Maayan paints a moving, compelling picture of what life might be like for the person made the public face of the Stargate Project after all is revealed.

Her Daniel is exactly the kind of Daniel Jackson I'd like to see more of on the show, and it's an added bonus that we get a wonderfully fleshed-out Emmett Bregman as well. This story is moving without being overly emotional, at times almost painful in its realism, but most of all it is beautifully told.



Thanksgiving eve.

Six months to the day after former vice president Kinsey lost his sanity along with his grasp of decorum, Emmett Bregman was coughing up a lung on the threshold of a nondescript apartment, in a five-story Chicago condominium sans elevator. He spread his arms away from his body to keep the black Americanos he held phlegm-free. The door swung open and Bregman, frozen in the parody of a tender embrace, found himself hacking all over the archeologist formerly known as Daniel Jackson.

"Well. Thanks."
