Rearranging Fate by Redbyrd (PG)
Fandom: STARGATE SG1
Pairing: mostly gen but background Jack/Sam
Length: ~49,000 words
Author on LJ:
redbyrd_sgfic
Author Website: Redbyrd's Stargate Fanfiction
Why this must be read:
Author's Summary: Charlie Kawalsky and Samantha Carter are astonished at the differences they find in this perfect alternate reality where their friends are alive and the Goa'uld attack has been averted. After they return home, they are faced with the enormous task of rebuilding Earth's failed defenses and they know they need to make some changes. Number one on their list..recruit Daniel Jackson.
This is one of those stories that is truly among the best that Stargate SG-1 ficcage can offer. It builds on the Season 3 episode "Point of View" in an extremely intriguing way. Not only do we get to explore that episode through the eyes of alterate!Kawalsky (a truly unique and gratifying POV), we get to see how his reality starts to rebuild after the defeat of the Goa'uld. Redbyrd explores the impact of this utterly defining event, the way society is reshaped, how people take such a explosive revealing of the Stargate program, and we get to see how slowly, and at times jarringly, Earth starts to rebuild both itself and their Stargate program.
And yet, Redbyrd still keeps the story intimate as she explores the impact of this episode's events on Kawalsky, his Sam, his Daniel, and the others from his reality. Among the epic missions and rebuilding, we get scenes like friends relaxing over conversation and a friendly glass of brandy. We end the fic with a feeling that this reality is headed in the right direction with a bright future all around. For a fic that revolves around a completely alternate reality than the one we know, the reader is rivited to every word and utterly wants to know the outcome for our alternate team.
