Click Here for the AU List!

So, anonymoouse has a huge AU McShep list (~180) in Word format. I (lazy) tired of cutting & pasting, so I gathered them here, and made links. Along for the ride: stories suggested by sgagenrefinders sheafrotherdon, altyronsmaker, danceswithgary, aqualegia, flyakate, hyperfocused, valiree, toft_froggy, ariadne83, rheanna27, bironic, danceswithgary again (now 139!!), sga_santa, sgafan33, goddess47 (who steered me towards Crossroads), pollitt, lavvyan, ratcreature, whose Recs List I shamelessly plundered in search of McShep, SGA Big Bang, elaran’s rec list, anonymoouse!, skaredykat, skinscript, almostnever, jane_connor, mecurtin, omg_wtf_yeah, the sgareversebang, the AU filter on AOOO, Connor, lina, sga_santa, wonapalei, Shibela, meander, and Joya. And entropy_house and Joya have sussed out 13 dead links and two new chapters (& 2 typos) for me (so far)! Phew! That’s a lot of good help!

    I’m sure you’ve been bombard with the new AU links from the last Atlantis Big Bang so I’ll refrain from it :) .
    Although I found the AU fic ‘Apocalypse Rising’ (http://archiveofourown.org/works/74056) which is canon compliant AU. John is a himself, Rodney’s himself but Atlantis is still not found, and the Wraith invades Earth. R, 82239 words.

      I haven’t had a lot of suggestions, but I do have an eye on the listing over on AOOO.

      You’ve got great timing – I’m updating the list right now!

      Thanks for letting me know – I’m about 1,000 words in and it’s really good so far.

  3. Connor says:

    Hi, it’s me again. I’ve surfed AOO yesterday and found the extended version of ‘Nunc Dimittis’ by temaris (you already have sga_santa version on your list, in Knight/Monk category), with the epilogue. It’s here: http://archiveofourown.org/works/115872/chapters/161705.

    And I’ve read the new Sentinel and Guide story, ‘Lost and Found’ by RosiePaw. John’s Sentinel, Rodney’s Guide. Words: 13404. Rating R.

      Careful, you’re going to catch up to danceswithgary if you keep up this pace. :grin:

      I’ll have to look at it again, but I think I didn’t put the first one on because it’s not AU enough. Yes, they’re reincarnated, but other than that, they’re pretty much canon J & R (if it’s the one I’m thinking of).

      The second one – I swear I already put it on the list. And, yet, it’s not there. (So now I’m senile, as well.)

      Third one I have no memory of. I’ll have to look at them all while I’m updating this weekend.

      Not spamming – doing good deeds. Finding new stories is never spam. :D

    • elderwitty says:

      Okay, so. I’ve checked all the stories you gave me links for. I’ve added Nunc and Time and Tide to the list. The others all take place on Atlantis, pretty much from the get-go, so they don’t really fall so much in the AU guidelines of the list.

      They sure were fun to read, though. Thanks again for the recs, and feel free to through any others you come across my way. :D

It’s completely AU (what with being set in 2005 and Teyla and other people from SGA, Kolya included, being at the school too) until the Epilogue, which is sort of The Rising.

    Stumbled on another couple of fics. It’s fusion with ‘Dragonriders of Pern’.
    Dragon/Dragonrider, On the Wings of Imagination by X-parrot, G, ~3,700 words, gen: http://www.xmagicalx.net/scgi-bin/sga/pern1.html, and its sequel With Healing in His Wings (http://www.xmagicalx.net/scgi-bin/sga/pern2.html), PG, ~7,000 words, pre-slash.

  12. sgafan33 says:

    I don’t know if this qualifies for your list. Rodney (Mer) is a Waterbender and John (Zohn) is a Firebender. Cycle and Circuit by Alloy. http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=11086

    • elderwitty says:

      I hope it qualifies. It’s already on there. :grin: It was given to me as ‘Scholar/Scholar’, so that’s where I put it. I haven’t actually read that one yet. Maybe I should go do that now. :D

      Thanks for the suggestion!

  13. entropy_house says:

    Hello! I’ve sneaked back to check out the new goodies. YAY for the Dragonrider’s crossover in particular. John-Dragon is wonderful. :^)

    And in skimming the list looking for +++ I just noticed this typo- it should be ‘Quantum’

    7-year-old –> husband/6-year-old –> physicist = Quantam Entanglements by reddwarfer – 13,000

    Thank you so much for this list and all the work you put into it on a continuing basis. It’s given me many happy hours of reading pleasure.

    • elderwitty says:

      I like dragon!John as well. He was so determined to have Rodney for his own. Shows his good taste, I think. :D

      Thanks for letting me know about the typo. I’d've skimmed it a million more time before I noticed it.

      You’re very welcome. I have a lot of fun doing it. I highly recommend it as an antidote for getting any DIY done. At all. :grin:

    Found another dead link-
    Ancient/Merman = Under the Sea by lavvyan – 960
    is linked in your list to:

    I foolishly tried the search on AOOO for a long time before wising up and googling, which found it in seconds.

    I found the link to

    so I googled and found the story elsewhere
    Thumbling Down by lavvyan

    And then I discovered it is still on Archive of our own, but the URL is slightly different, omitting the /en/

    Happy Holidays!

    Could you please send me a copy of Push and Pull by Jane Elliot that you mention in the list? Thanks in advance and also for creating this list. I’m really enjoying reading some of the stories.

    I noticed you don’t seem to have zoemathemata’s fic Marrying the Marquis on here, where John is the aforementioned Marquis caught in an *ahem* compromising position with one Meredith Rodney McKay, nephew to the Duke of Carmichael.

    Found the fic I haven’t seen in the list. Finding Home by ca_pierson (http://community.livejournal.com/artword/54010.html), John’s 16-year-old human, Rodney’s 15-year-old Alteran who lives on Atlantis (IIRC), 12,273 words, PG-13.

    Hello again, I just remembered about some Sardonicsmiley’s work that labeled WIP but probably never will be finished. It’s Firefly fusion “Can’t Take the Sky” (http://smiley.zonezine.net/html/38905.html), R, and “Can’t Take the Sky snippet”, PG-13 (http://smiley.zonezine.net/html/86142m.html), Captain/Mechanic (River Tam).

    • elderwitty says:

      I’m actually trying not to include non-human fics, since there are already good, comprehensive lists for those. There are three or four stories that snuck in somehow, but I’m really trying to hold the line at that. (C’mon! Girl Scout cookies — how could I refuse that? :D )

      I am, of course, going to go read the story right now. I don’t think I’ve seen it before. Thanks bunches for the suggestion and please do keep your eyes open for more.

      • sgafan33 says:

        Can you point me to a non-human fic list?

        • elderwitty says:

          Sure! Or, actually, I can do even better. This “List of Lists” has at least three or four animal lists of various sorts, plus every other sort of list for your fic reading needs. Enjoy!

          http://community.livejournal.com/sgagenrefinders/123742.html

          • sgafan33 says:

            Thanks!

          • Entropy_house says:

            Alas, I fear there is no active list of SGA Animal AUs/ Animal Transformation AUs on the SGA genrefinders list.

            *sigh* The two lists I do see there both belong to the same person who is no longer updating them as they were meant only as personal recs list, not a comprehensive list.

          • elderwitty says:

            Hmmm, I didn’t know it wasn’t being updated. I have too much on my plate to take on another list compilation, though.

            I think I’ll ask on sga_noticeboard if there is an active list elsewhere or, if not, if debris_k would mind if some kind soul used hers as the basis for an ongoing one … and if anyone would be interested in that position. :grin:

            Hey – what are you doing for the next whatever? :sly grin:

          • Entropy_house says:

            Alas, I’m behind on far too many things already to be able to take on the SGA animal lists. I’m only peripheral in the fandom so wouldn’t be able to find them, anyway.

            I DID just buy all the show on DVD, but haven’t had time to watch! I would like to be able to add some Rodney/John goodness to the list, if I ever get to where I can think of interesting AU scenario for them.

          • elderwitty says:

            Oh, honey. Once you’ve built your base you don’t have to go hunting for them. People volunteer them. :D The only one I’ve found lately is the dog musher/vet one … and three more people alerted me to it before the day was out. There is a bit of time involved in doing the actual maintenace, but that stems mostly from the fact that I feel compelled to read all the stories that people send to be put on the list. Oh, the hugh manatee.

            I’m glad you now have the whole series in your possession. You’ll watch it when the time is right … and then I’m sure you’ll be adding an entry to our list.

    It’s certainly different. :D

    Just found another high school AU: devildoll’s The Happiest Place on Earth.

    • elderwitty says:

      Thanks! I’ll add it in the next group. The plan is to do it this weekend, but my plans tend to go awry … and then derail in a spectacular fireball of salsa and internet browsing. :grin:

    New fic. Dog musher/Veterinarian = Happy Trails by padfootthegrim – 20,004

  32. Shibela says:

    You know, I haven’t checked, but are you accepting any of the Fairy Tales Challenge entries from LJ Comm ‘sga_flashfic’?

    If you are, there’s “Coming True” by Kass (aka kassrachel) — John = Tavern-worker / pilot-wannabe & Rodney = Lord of the Manor’s son / scientist — 4,760wds.

    • Shibela says:

      Whoops! Just noticed that I have a typo for the word count… s/b 4,730wds. Sorry about that. See what happens when I’m posting in the wee hours of the morning here? :)

      • elderwitty says:

        As long as they’re human, I’ll take ‘em wherever I can get ‘em. :D Thanks – I’ll add it in this weekend.

        • Shibela says:

          So… you’re qualifying human, but do demons / oni count as human since they’re not exactly animals yet not exactly human either? (I think they are human-shaped with a few extras…) If so, then maybe X-parrot’s “Kuro to Ao” should be added. I don’t exactly recall if John had an occupation other than being an oni & Rodney’s companion, but Rodney was, of course, a scientist.

          :)

          • elderwitty says:

            Well, since there are vamps and werewolves, and a merman or two on here already, I’d have to give demons and the like the go-ahead. I’m just trying to exclude animals, robots, and inanimate objects (although I can think of an example or three [cookie, Peep, robot] that break these rules right off the top of my head). I never said I made sense – I’m just trying to keep the list to a somewhat manageable dull roar. :D

            I’ll add that one, too, in the next batch. Thanks!

          • Shibela says:

            You’re welcome! I forgot to add a word count for “Kuro to Ao,” which is 8,364wds. This week has got me totally discombobulated – between caffeine withdrawal & then slightly overcompensating my caffeine intake when given the opportunity, this week’s been like going fast forward through near-frozen molasses. Hee!
            :D

          • elderwitty says:

            Thanks! I love a word count, as I think we all know.

            I know what you mean about the week. Our office was closed Tuesday due to an ice/snow storm and it threw the whole rhythm off. I didn’t know what time or day it was for the rest of the week. Weird.

          • elderwitty says:

            Hmmm. Now that I’ve read the story (again – I read it long before I ever considered an AU list), I’m not sure it fits. It seems that my meaning for ‘human’ might be shape-based. But on the other claw, John as a werewolf was not bipedal the entire story, and these guys are.

            Plus, it’s so sweet and perfect that I can’t resist it. Okay, decision made. It’s on!

    Just posted today, so if you haven’t seen / read it yet, there is All You Can Squeeze From a Lemon” by mckays_girl. John = Bartender / Forced Retired USAF Major & Rodney = Computer Programmer. Word Count is 12,204wds.

    An early V-day fic: A Wilted Rose and a Kiss by ru_salki99, where John and Rodney are office workers.

      Or rather, not early, as I forgot that the US is not the entire world, most of which is already celebrating V-day.

      Thanks for continuing to be a fabulout fic finding resource. :D

      Sorry it’s taken me so long to reply. There was plenty to get in place before my surgery, then I’ve been slacking in front of the reality tv instead of doing my internet chores. (That restaurant Kitchen trainwreck is just so addictive.) Then my laptop went belly up last weekend, leading to three days of enforced inactivity … but, sadly, it’s mostly done to slacking.

      I’ll add all of these in the next batch, which better happen by Thursday or I’ll be forced to kick my own ass.

  42. Lina says:

    NHMR Productions, Inc., wherein Rodney is a contractor and John is a person with a degree in journalism who does things on TV.

    • elderwitty says:

      Thanks for this – it was a fun read!

      Sorry to take so long to reply. Medical stuff (not too serious, so don’t worry) plus time off work leads to less productivity and more tv viewing that I had envisioned. I’m getting myself in gear, though, and will be adding to the list this week. Or else! Duh-duh-dun!

    • Gabi says:

      Sorry! I just found it on the list– my mistake.

      • elderwitty says:

        It’s no problem at all. Sometimes the job title I put them under doesn’t match the job title you would put them under. (I actually had one on the list under two different categories once, but don’t tell everyone, okay?)

        Thanks for keeping an eye out for me, and send any more you find my way!

    • elderwitty says:

      You’re welcome for the list! I started it for my own convenience, but I like sharing it even more. :D

  53. Lina says:

    Hey, you have a sort of weird link thing in this line: “Librarian/Physicist = Plenty of Paper by unamaga – 3,840″ the second half leads to the story, but the first part (the “Librarian/Physicist = ” part) leads to a John Sheppard/Remus Lupin story. I’m guessing that’s an accident.

    • elderwitty says:

      Sorry ’bout that. I’m gonna claim chocolate deficiency as the cause. :D

      Thanks for letting me know! It’s fixed now. Please tell me if you find any other weirnesses lurking.

      • Lina says:

        That’s a totally sufficient excuse. ;)

        I will! I’m just re-reading the list so if anything comes up, I’ll let you know.

    Wow, I was surprised to see my story on the list. Thank you. As a very new writer in this fandom, it was a thrill!

    Thanks for including me.

      You’re welcome. Thank you for writing such an engrossing story. Welcome to our fandom – come on in and roll around. :D

      • pinkdiamonds says:

        LOL, I’m hoping part 4 will be ready in a week or so and part 5 a week or so after that. Thanks to the wonderful heat, I’m more than 30,000 words into it.

        And I’ve been wallowing in the fandom for a few months and on this AU list, which is an incredible work of love and chock full of McShep yumminess.

        Thank you for the warm welcome.

        • elderwitty says:

          \o/ I can’t wait.

          Truth be told, I’m not that much of a Jack/Daniel fan (because I watched the show before I knew what slash goggles were), but I really liked the first two stories. I read the drabble, too. You know, I think there’s a way to make the AOOO show them in whatever order you like. I don’t know it, of course, but I’ve seen stories inserted in the middle of an existing ‘verse.

          I’m still trying to work my way through the whole list. I’m doing okay. I’ve had a looooooot of help with it.

          You’re welcome for the welcome – and thanks for the thanks! (Sorry, there’s been quite a bit of Dr. Pepper today. :D )

  56. Joya says:

    I thought I would write to you to let you know that the fic written by bitter-crimson has been deleted. The author apparently purged their journal, which is a shame because I only got to read the original fic before the deletion.

    • elderwitty says:

      Thanks for letting me know. It turns out that it was only a temporary measure, to deal with the privacy issues LJ was having earlier in the day. It’s back up now.

    Wandering about I stumbled across this author’s SGA tagged fic, and I believe this story (from 2007) isn’t on the list, and I think it fits your criteria (do fusions count as AU?). There’s no nookie, but definite John/Rodney vibes.

    It’s about 3,400 words if my quick & dirty desktop word-counter is accurate.

    Doctor Who? Doctor Rodney McKay, Of Course
    (Rodney is Dr. Who, John is a renegade Time-Agent)

    Looking for a fic:

    Was trying to find a fic that featured Sheppard as a robot, but he doesn’t realize it until he meets with McKay again (McKay is the one who helped create him). As I remember it, McKay and Radek were creating a group of robots that developed from small mechanical devices that showed the ability to learn. There’re scenes of the robots wheeling around, learning their environment and then learning speech. As they became more complex, some of them stopped functioning, but the ones to survive later became Sheppard and Mitchell. They didn’t know they were robots? Also, it is a Shep/McKay pairing.

    Does this sound familiar?

    • elderwitty says:

      It does sound familiar. That’s Leah and Springwoof’s Scruffy AI ‘verse. The link goes to the Master list of the five stories.

      The story that their first entry was a remix of is lavvyan’s Male Enhancement.

      Not that I’m not happy to help (I AM!), but have you heard of SGA Storyfinders? It’s a community with thousands of people who can find whatever story you’re looking for, no matter how little you remember about it. (They found one for me based on a very bad description and half a sentence.) They can almost always find it for you faster than I can. Here’s their profile page, with the rules and tips: http://sgastoryfinders.livejournal.com/profile

      That’s for when you’re looking for a specific story. When you need a certain kind of fic, say hurt/comfort or Aliens Made Them Do It, you’ll want to ask the SGA Genrefinders. (They’ve been the cause of many an hour lost online.) Here’s their rules page: http://sgagenrefinders.livejournal.com/profile

      Hope you enjoy the stories!

      • Lynndes says:

        Thank you!

        I actually posted this then read other comments above that included a link to sgagenrefinders, and from there got lost in all the other stories available!

    • Joya says:

      I think I know the fic you are looking for. In the fic, John was implanted with a cyber-brain after he was shot in the head while in Afghanistan. The brain John uses started out as a computer program.

      It’s called “The Difference Engine” by copperbadge.

    Hey, sweetie! Thanks for the walker! ::grin:: Someone on Tumblr just posted a link to this: http://archiveofourown.org/works/215683

    I haven’t read it yet, but here’s the summary: John, a downed Hurricane pilot in WWII, is rescued by Rodney who’s tracking strange energy readings in the Sahara. And in another life, their story makes another John and Rodney unwilling Atlantis celebrities.

    • elderwitty says:

      heeheehee. I hope it was only the smallest of your birthday treasures.

      It’s a tricky one. It’s not AU, as much as it is an AU within Atlantis. Someone is writing fanfic about Sheppard and Rodney, set in WWII Africa. It’s very good, though. You should read it.

  60. Joya says:

    I read this fic today and thought that it might fit on your list.

    Canonesque John [Lt Col]/Author Rodney – The Long Journey Home by skoosiepants – ~11,000 words
    http://skoosiepants.livejournal.com/178151.html

    Ok here’s the premise of the fic: John is a part of the SGC and went to Atlantis. Rodney is a sci-fi author, who through an Ancient device saw John life in the Pegasus galaxy. Rodney ended up writing a book series based on John’s adventure. Then things go pear-shaped when John becomes unreachable.

    I would say more but I don’t want to spoil it.

    PS: I think Rodney still has all the degrees he has in canon.

    How sad when a fic disappears. From sgastoryfinders, the Baker/Physicist story, Atlantis: a coffee shop story by mamaesme is gone because the lj has been deleted.

    Hope the new job is going well.

    • elderwitty says:

      Bummer! And after we hounded her to finally finish it. I’ll remove it in the next batch. I’m so far behind now that I’m not sure it’ll be this weekend, but I’ll try. Thanks for letting me know.

      It’s going really well. It’s challenging, and when the people fill their paperwork out correctly I get to give them money. Fun. :D

    • elderwitty says:

      Thanks for letting me know. I hope to do some work on it this weekend, but I’m so far behind that it might not happen.

      Feel free to email it to LDWitte @ hotmail.com (without spaces, natch). Just make sure you put a very clear subject line – something like “Links for the AU List” – as my inbox is set to exclusive. Thanks for helping us all with more good stuff to read. :)

  63. Joya says:

    I just noticed this recently and thought you should be made aware of the mistake:
    Researcher/Investor = Lure of the Deep by megalan – 6,107Ars Machina Act I by dmchoi87 – 34,714
    (To be more specific, 2 fics are occupying 1 area of the list when they are in no way connected with each other.)

    I am pretty sure that the listing should look something like this:
    Researcher/Investor = Lure of the Deep by megalan – 6,107

    Ex-Navy Seal Resistance Fighter/Skynet Creator, Resistance Fighter & Scientist = Ars Machina Act I by dmchoi87 – 34,714 (Job description added because there was no description)

    • elderwitty says:

      Thanks for letting me know. I guess that Word ate the words in the middle.

      I’m working on the list right now, so it should be fixed if you check it again this evening.

  64. Marian says:

    One of the links is wrong.

    This story
    @@@Ex-pilot/Brothel owner = A Fate So Sweet by Telesilla – 13,730
    SHOULD link to here http://archiveofourown.org/works/148322

    but instead it links to a different story ‘Life Experiences’.

  65. Wolfie says:

    Engineer/Egyptologist – The Alexandrian Tablet by giogio – 60,000+

    Currently links to the first post of the 15 part series… but none of the pages have links to the “next” part of the story. I’d recommend changing the link to the final “index” post:

    http://giogio.livejournal.com/674281.html

    Also: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! for collating this list. <3

    • elderwitty says:

      Thanks for letting me know. I can use all the help I can get. I’ll switch it in the next update (this weekend, maybe?).

      And you’re very welcome! I’m glad to help others procrastinate as much as I do. :D

    Ambulance driver/Doctor = Ambulance by rosemending – 1,600

    LJ account has been deleted and purged. Waybackmachine do not has it on record either, because bots were not allowed to archive that account.

  67. Joya says:

    Okay, I find another fic to add to the list. I thought it was already on the list but I just checked and it wasn’t.

    Construction worker/Canon!Rodney = Construction Work by neery – 2000
    http://neery.livejournal.com/28909.html

    PS: This would have been in my email if I had known that it wasn’t on the list.

  72. Joya says:

    I’m curious, why was this fic rejected from the list? (It was in the email but placed on the list.)
    Botanist, Environmentalist & Ex Eco-Terrorist/Astrophysicist = The Roads Never Lead Where They’re Supposed to Go by eleveninches -23,300
    http://dejabu.robot-army.org/sgaroads.html

    John and Rodney hooked up towards the end of the fic. Also since John isn’t in the military but a botanist (due to being caught smoking pot in high school among other things), the fic becomes AU.

    (Then there’s the fact Rodney not CSO, Sumner lives, Ford lives & that towards the end, Carson was exiled for doing wrong.)

    PS: In regards to John work description, he is definitely a botanist. Rodney is the one to say that John is an environmentalist and that when John said that he worked in the “non-profit sector” that it’s code for Eco-terrorism.

    • elderwitty says:

      I didn’t think it fitted the criteria.

      The main purpose of this list was to gather fics where both Rodney and John have professions different than those in canon. It’s not enough that the events playing out in Atlantis differ from those in the series. (That’s every fanfic ever written.) That vital piece of info got removed from the intro paragraph at some point – I’ll put it back in.

      This story is more of a half-canon AU. There are some that managed to sneak in but I’m loath to add any more, since they’re outside the list’s remit. I did try to talk skaredykat into compiling a list of half-canon stories (after she expressed dismay that I had excluded one), but didn’t manage to rope her into it. If you’d like to start one, I’m sure that squidge.org would be happy to host it. :)
