[teridawn]

Been a minute, I've been all caught up in really long and really short reads. Here's a 'blast from the past' in 7 parts. You have to be a member at the Archive of Our Own (AO3) to read these stories, locked by the author.

Retrograde (first part of a series) by Martha Wilson (LtLJ) 

What would happen if the Expedition feared they were abandoned for 3 years, and what would happen when rescue finally came.

This series is locked by the author, you must be a registered AO3 user to read.

Couples & Characters: The Atlantis Expedition, the Athosians, SGC/SG-1, NID/Trust

Rating: G  (warnings for implied torture, mulitiple murders and canon level violence)

Published on AO3:   11/22/2005

Read:  5/15/2023

Word Count:   107,270 in total

SumUp:  The Atlantis expedition has been lost for three years. SG-1 goes to find them, and arrives just a little too late.

Snip: "What?" Jack demanded. He was curious to see if Daniel would admit to getting a vibe off this place, not unlike the one thrumming through his consciousness at the moment. The one that said, you're too late, dumbass. Three years and you're fourteen days too late.

it's way up there for me too! I have such problems putting a finger on a tippy top number one, my brain always goes, 'but what about...?' whenever I try.
