If You Could

[ithildin]

Let's play another 'Ith is bored at work, so entertain her' game! (A little wordy, but I like it)

If you could convince me to read one piece of fic, what would it be, and why? It can be yours, or somebody else's, and while it would probably help convince me if I had some familiarity with the fandom, feel free to go wild and convince me to read something I don't have a single clue about! Y'all are creative that way.

You almost had me with Jack O'Neill, then you lost me with slash [g] Sounds like quite a story though!

Actualize This!

Okay, then. Try this.

Daniel Jackson & Jack O'Neill, Jim & Blair (The Sentinel) and Darien and Bobby (The Invisible Man) all are forced to attend a seminar "to improve interpersonal skills in military and law-enforcement personnel" and quickly become the Guys In The Back Of The Room (and solve a little mystery while they're at it). Guaranteed Not-Slash. (http://www.handbasketholidays.com/stories/actualize.htm)

Okay, that one I need to check out!

That was fun! I've only ever seen one episode of Sentinel and I never could remember their names and to this day I call them 'Hair Guy' and 'Grumpy Guy'.

Yeah, one of the reasons I liked that story was that if you didn't know some of the characters (and I've never seen Invisible Man and only a few eps of Sentinel), you knew as much about them as the other characters did. Jack and Daniel were my viewpoint characters, so what they saw (or surmised) is what I knew too.
