Why this must be read:

This gem of a crossover features Stiles as a linguist with the SGC, Lydia as a physicist and Derek as a Luceren (shape-shifting alien) diplomat. The whole fic is fantastic and the voice is hilarious. Teen Wolf fans will love seeing the perfect ways the cast fits into the SGC. For Stargate fans, the fic is full of in-jokes that had me laughing out loud (including bullet-proof lab tables for the inevitable shoot-outs). But my favourite part was the Luceren culture, which is developed in a way I wish werewolf culture was on the show, and Stiles translating Derek’s body language (in both wolf and human form). The exploration of this culture and the development of Stiles’ relationship with Derek is framed by an action-filled Replicator take-over of the base that could be an episode of either show.

Officially, Stiles works under Dr. “Call me by my first name and die” Martin, who runs her lab with steel fists of terror and a rotating color-coded schedule written in the blood and tears of her former PhD candidates (Stiles assumes). But unofficially, Stiles actually spends most of his time in Dr. Jackson’s realm, better known around the base as “that creepy row of offices on sub-level eight that smell like eggs.”

They don’t smell like eggs, they smell like sulfur. And that is entirely Isaac’s fault, because he insists on playing with the Go’auld staff weapons like every single day.

“They’re experiments,” Isaac always insists, as if that legitimizes his giant oh let’s play tic tac toe on the wall! games or something, “it’s for science, Stiles.”
