GUNDAM WING / STARGATE:SG-1 (PG-13)

um. I'm on student time; to me, it's still Monday?

Title: Upon A Firey Steed by Vathara
Pairing: Background Quatre/Trowa, Duo/Hilde, and Wufei/Sally
Length: About 80,000 words.
Author on LJ: N/A (that I could find, at least)
Author Website: Her ff.net profile.
Why this must be read:

This is a fusion of the Gundam Wing cast with the Stargate universe - but not on earth. Captured by a Goa'uld Queen, Dimme, Daniel Jackson joins forces with fellow-captive, the ever irreverant Duo Maxwell, to escape back to Duo's home system, Sanq. But it isn't that simple, because Sanq is by no means a normal Goa'uld-controlled slave planet.

This is a really great twist on the Stargate universe; you don't need to know anything about Gundam Wing to read it, really, and a general knowledge of stargates and the team will be enough on the SG-1 side. Basically, it's a great adventure story that deserves a read, even if it is hosted on That Site. I should be revising right now, but a 'quick glance' to write this up has turned into re-reading the whole thing - it pulls you in.

I love this story! I wish Vathara was still writing fandoms I read.

I tend to read her stories anyway and just to hope that I can figure out the backstory well enough as I go. I check her profile at least once a week, looking to see if there's a new story yet.

She's crossed a lot of things that I'd never have dreamed of combining.

Damn you! I don't have time to re-read it but now I want to so very much! And I haven't been in either fandom in YEARS :-)

I've read and reread this story many, many times. I still love this story. Just wish Vathara would revisit that world with a sequel.
