Why This Must Be Read: Set in Episode: s07e02 Homecoming, this fic is a somber missing scene between a newly-returned Daniel and Teal'c. I love the way their friendship is shown and how accepting Teal'c is of whoever Daniel may be now, regardless of if he regains his memories, regardless of if he is exactly the same. It's a quiet moment and beautifully done.

Fannish 50: is this weird?
Jun. 9th, 2025 11:24 pmtellshannon815Yeah, so I dropped the ball on Fannish 50 ramble after getting into a bit of a funk back in the spring (but having had some holiday since and plans to see family again - think most of you know this but my family is largely scattered across the UK - have got me out of it a bit). But having just finished my latest drabble for drabble_zone made me think of something to ramble about.
Is it weird that I have this one particular pairing who I find give me lots of material to work with when it comes to fic (even for graphics at the oldlands_of_magic community, and yet even as I write them as a pairing, I have to admit that I don't ship them in the slightest and if anything find them toxic as a couple? But much as I never rooted for this pairing I can't help but write them (it probably accounts for about a fifth of my Dark writing, but if you've known me a long time you will know that I try to write a variety of characters rather than concentrate on anyone specific).
(For context: it's Hannah and Ulrich from Dark. The whole history is very complex to explain, including lots of time travel and people being related in ways they have no idea about - this is a show you can't watch and piss about on your phone at the same time if you want to know what's going on, you do need to pay attention. It's one of my ultimate top five fandoms, but I can see why others might find it a lot. In a spoiler-lite version, Hannah's obsession with Ulrich from her schooldays and realisation that he's not going to end his marriage to her best friend to be with her leads her to do a lot of shitty things, she's not well liked among fans. We only get about five minutes glimpse of Hannah in a timeline where Ulrich was never in her life, so it's hard to judge what she's like without any of that history).

"I think you'd look good in that," Bucky murmured in Steve's ear, discreetly calling attention to some of the leather crowd.
Steve snorted. "Not really my style, but maybe for a night," he answered, still taking in the whole pageant of queer life on display, eyes roving over the ones that were shyly experiencing it, and those openly embracing it.
"D'you read the history?"
"Hell of a thing," Steve agreed with that respectful tone. "Still a long way to go," he added as he spotted the trouble spoiling for a fight. Bucky looked, and the pair made their way over.

It's already been bad for days out in LA, and now the motherfuckers are deploying marines there? Marines? The actual military?
It's only a matter of time - days? - before they send them into my city. Fuck. My neighborhood might not be as heavily Hispanic as Pilsen or Humboldt Park, but Rogers Park has a big enough undocumented community that ICE thugs have already been reported hanging around; at least that's the report. Last week I hoped it was just a fear-fueled rumor. Now?
Sorry for the swearing; but not too sorry. The moment calls for it.

- Do we even know how Otto got that scar? Hmmm... plot bunnies...
- That ending speech... Oh, that American hypocrisy, right?
- Speaking of the ending, I keep thinking about how Otto will be sent to a concentration camp, and probably executed. Which is why it breaks my heart so much. Once again, Connie plays a character who sacrifices everything for what he thinks is right.
