Review:
There are not many authors who would attempt to do what this author has been doing for the last few years: rewrite the entirety of the Stargate SG-1 universe (and beyond) into a slash-friendly and happy-ending-guaranteed world. While the idea, in and of itself, sounds monstrous and, perhaps, even a little bit daunting to writer and reader alike, I can say with perfect honesty that it's been one of the funniest, most entertaining, and engaging rewrites I've had the pleasure of reading and "participating" in within my whole fandom life.

Beginning at season one episode one of the series, this massive rewrite explores the relationship between Jack and Daniel, starting from post-movie friendship, to lovers, to husbands, to (depending on if you want to go that far) fathers and family. Everything, from trials and tribulations to birthdays and anniversaries, is touched on in this series and given a rose-colored glasses flavor of reality. Even if you’re new to the series, don’t want to have to slog through episode-story upon episode-story, or just feel unequal to reading the universe from the beginning, you can easily jump to any “episode” you wish, reading each story in turn as a stand alone in any order you want.

While Orrymain is still, frequently, updating this universe with new stories and fresh edits, I highly encourage anyone who enjoys this pairing, happy endings, or the Stargate universe to try this out. It’s a fun ride with wonderful characterization and plenty of adventures to keep you occupied, even if you’re just wanting to read a story or two.
