So depressing to me

So of late I have read a couple of apocofics and some other scenarios where SG-1 comes to a bloody end. While I actually find the plots and ideas in these stories to be much more what one would expect for a unit like SG-1, rather than their narrow escapes mission after mission, still, I find them very, very depressing. Not reading them anymore.

This being different from stuck off-world stories, which are usually kind of bittersweet to me, because they got stuck off-world, but at least they have each other.

Anyway, blah, blah.

Giveth me linkies. Cause I love post-apocaplyse stuff, really. And haven't read any SG-1 that goes there!

Hmm. The post-apocalypse fics I've read, they still have each other (or some subset). Whether they get stuck on some distant planet, or in an alternate reality, or earth is taken over/destroyed, or whatever, if SG-1 (or J/D) have each other, I'm happy. If someone ends up achingly alone -- ouchies! I've read plenty of fic where it happens, not even in the context of apocalypse -- angsty! (You have read Willamkee, yes?) Even hurts in canon -- Daniel in Moebius, e.g. I'm actually glad all the robots went out together in Double Jeopardy. And I still hurt for clone!Jack.

p.s. Hey, you doing that [livejournal.com profile] stargatefic100? You can be "official" -- and there's a Halloween prompt! Hurry -- 2 J/D slots already taken.
