Templum Bellonae

I’m not big on threesomes, but Spike/Xander/Anya is one that actually works for me.

Spike gets hit with the Gemini stick (The Replacement) instead of Xander, and it has an unexpected effect. Spike stays with Xander and Anya while the gang looks for a way to reverse the spell.

When he hears that Spike is still alive, Xander comes back from Africa to see him. The fact that they have their reunion in Angel’s office is what really makes this story.

Reunion by Flaming Muse

Xander needs a date for a company party. The only one available is…Spike.

“And you care about my professional endeavors?” Xander snapped. “Please. Look, Spike, I don’t know what the scam is, but—”

“No scam.” Spike’s eyes were eerily direct as they bored into Xander’s, his hand again a vise on Xander’s arm. “Bit of free food and tormenting rich old biddies who need some young blood—”

“You’re old enough to be their grandfather! Probably their great-grandfather!”

“—young blood to spice things up. Don’t make this a big deal, Harris, and no, you aren’t getting rid of me so you might as well just deal with it.”

Wow, it seems like such a long time since I’ve read any really good HP slash. And this story is awesome.

A plot by Voldemort’s forces leaves Harry without his magic, unable to defend himself from any attack. In an attempt to keep him safe, Dumbledore has him move into a London flat, with Snape as his only contact with the wizarding world.

I categorized this story as “humour”, even though it really isn’t, because I found Snape’s thoughts about Harry’s new neighbourhood hysterically funny.

Potter’s hallway resonated with the same rhythmic, primitive thumps he’d heard the week before. Perhaps it wasn’t music at all, but some sort of debased communication between the tenants. Snape stood outside the door and knocked.

There was a lengthy pause, during which he was able, to his chagrin, to make out a semblance of lyrics accompanying the din–an invitation to slump my hump, humpy hump, slump my dumpy hump, it seemed–and then, just as he was raising his hand to knock again, the door opened a crack. Potter stood behind it, eyeing him warily.

For the most part, though, the story is contemplative and a bit sad, but a wonderful read.

Silly, but hilarious. An(other) enemy of Mal’s comes up with a scheme to embarrass him and his crew.

Something else I like about SG-1 is the relationship between Vala and Teal’c. They have good chemistry.

“I see why you like this one so much,” Vala says as Teal’c removes the DVD from the player and inserts “Empire.” “A band of rebels against the evil overlords, a man joining forces with unlikely allies to overcome great odds…”

Teal’c knows her childish antics hide a calculating mind, but he still does not expect her to see through him quite so easily. “I enjoy the space battles.”

Daniel and his wife visit Atlantis. Is the Pegasus galaxy ready for Vala? Not hardly.

“I don’t know if I envy Jackson or feel sorry for him,” Baker said.

“She’s a heck of a woman, but a little too high maintenance for my tastes,” Lorne said.

Teyla paused. “Has Doctor Jackson arrived?”

“Jackson, Vala, and Imelda Marcos’ shoe collection.”

“Imelda Marcos had a lot of shoes,” Lorne explained, just in case Teyla had forgotten her ability to infer.

I really, really like stories from Teyla’s point of view, so of course I would like one the that shows her take on my favourite SG-1 character.

SG-1 is in jail, and they need a distraction to escape. Vala has a bright idea.

“Don’t worry.” A remarkably pink tongue spread moisture over full lips. “This is guaranteed. There isn’t a man in the universe who wouldn’t be riveted.”

It’s actually surprising I haven’t found more Farscape/SG-1 crossovers, especially since it seems I’m not the only one who got into SG-1 only because Ben Browder and Claudia Black joined the cast. (Or in my case, just Claudia Black, because I don’t think I’ve ever loved a fictional character the way I love Aeryn Sun.)

If you scroll down a bit, you’ll also find the awesome, and sad, Five times John wasn’t saved from Scorpius.

Poor, poor Cameron; all he wants is a relaxing evening.

“Sir! She says it’s some sort of sacrilege, sir. I told her we needed an order from General Landry and a photo and fingerprints for the base I.D. card, but she won’t let us take them. She says in her culture it’s taboo for anyone except–” He stopped and glanced nervously at Jackson, then turned back to Cam. “Uh, her significant– Someone she–” He gulped. “She was pretty graphic, sir.”

Silly and a bit sappy, but fun, too. Vala buys herself a convertible, which leaves it up to Daniel to teach her how to drive.

Awkward first-time alien sex, complete with embarrassing translator microbe mix-up. Such a classic Farscape situation.
