Fandom Snowflake Challenge Day 12

Day 12

In your own space, create your own challenge.

I’ve been going through the replies on this one and there are so many great responses. From awakening dead comms to creating a transformative works statement to stop lurking to making a fanlore page! I fully condone them all and I’m gonna participate in a lot of them.

My challenge is to share your favourite fanwork of all time; that one fic or piece of art or Podfic (or whatever) that you revisit when you just NEED to experience it again. I love hearing about people’s holy grail of fanworks!

I’ll go first and share mine (surprising no one it’s SGA):

The Body Holographic by Leah (Taste_is_sweet) and Springwoof. This is my favourite fic of all time. It rips my heart out and has me sobbing each and every time I read it. But, like, cathartic sobbing. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of this fic.

Thanks for link! I'm putting that on my to-read list. :)

My immediate answer to this is probably Flight, a Supernatural fic by Northernsparrow, but that one's really well known, so I will instead give you this one, which is way underappreciated and makes me laugh every single time I reread it:

Syndicated Sci-Fi Show by claudiapriscus. It's a crossover between SG1 and Supernatural, set in the middle of the Supernatural episode where the trickster makes them live through a bunch of TV shows. The brothers get stuck in the SG1 universe and think it's another TV show, so they don't take anything seriously, but it's actually not. The SGC's perspective on the boys' bizarre behavior is absolutely hilarious and really in-character.

Thank you so much for sharing! I haven’t read much Supernatural fic (mainly because I’m one of approximately 3 people in the world who doesn’t ship Destiel) so I hadn’t heard of Flight. Wow, what a wordcount! I’ve added this to my bookmarks!

(Edit: and there’s Podfic of it!)

And, omg, that second one sounds hilarious!! I’m gonna read that one too!

Thanks for the recs :)
