Claim: The Sentinel: general series
Prompt: Death
Title: Alternity
Author: Legion
Rating: NC-17
Length: 256K
Brief summary: This is a crossover with Stargate SG-1. A Jim and Blair from a parallel universe (alternity) come through the Stargate with a fantastic tale. Their Earth was overrun and destroyed by the Goaul’d and they’ve been hopping through many alternities, hoping to find an Earth that might be saved. As they work against time and enormous odds, their presence starts to affect their counterparts in Cascade.

Legion has been writing in The Sentinel pretty much since the show started, and she still continues to post regularly. Her stories are always substantial – plotty, complicated and satisfying. This is a great example. It has urgency and discovery, missions and history, betrayal and comraderie and, of course, death and love that continues beyond.

I love this fic, not only for itself (which is enough) but because it coerced me into reading Stargate fic in general. *g*

Funnily enough it got me to watch Stargate SG1. I'd seen the movie years before, so I knew about Ga'ould and Abydos, but I knew nothing about the mirrors or the Tok'ra or Asgards and all that was part of the show.

So I went through all the episodes (thank you Netflix!) until Jack left and it helped me immeasurably in allowing me to fully enjoy some great fic.

Thanks for commenting. I really like hearing "war stories" about fans are moved by the fic they read.
