In the same mimetic vein as the entry posted by fanfic author & friend

lolmac Looking for Daniel in all the right places wherein she asks for advice from "ardent Jacksonians" about how to write Daniel, and what's good or bad in the way he's depicted in canon & in fanfic, I'm asking the Samantha-stans, Carter-istas, Sam-fanatics & Stargate fans on my F-List (anons, too!):

How do you write Sam Carter in character?

I've been STUCK on TWO fan fiction stories in which I can't resist writing from this amazing military astrophysicist's PoV, but am having major anxiety that I might get her wrong.

What is it about Sam that you love?
What makes you squee?
What do you most love to see her do?
What are the elements of a Sam story that you love the most?
What do you really like seeing her do in fic? On the show? Both?
What is the most epic of Sam WIN?
What annoys and pisses you off when you see it in fan fiction?
What are the stupid/shallow/careless misinterpretations of Sam that must be avoided?
What qualifies as Sam!Fail?
Any other pointers, tips, criticisms, & pet peeves also welcome!

THE NEW MOONBASE SAM MENTIONS IN CONTINUUM IS ATLANTIS.

Moritz writes: “Would be great, if you can give some information about the storyline of the moonbase Carter was talking about on Continuum. What was the plan for?”

Answer: I’m not sure if she was kidding or not, but Atlantis is the moonbase – as we reveal in Stargate: Extinction. (from Joe Mallozzi's Mailbag 17 May 2011)

Also, the SGC would've been revealed to the public.

flo also writes: “Did you plan a stargate reveal at some point ? Ever since it was planned to happened at the end of “Lost City” then cancelled when SG1 was renewed, i’ve always hoped we would see it at some point.”

Answer: This subject (the revelation and its many implications) would have formed the plot for the planned SG-1 movie, Stargate: Revolution. from Joe Mallozzi's Mailbag 12 May 2011

One of the most transforming effects of having a Tumblr blog is getting to know Amanda Tapping fangirls who are also Sam/Jack 'shippers.

It's like a weird AU where I almost feel like a Unitarian at a Baptist Tent Revival because none of the names I'm used to seeing in the Jack/Daniel or Daniel/Vala communities are present or familiar at first, but then I find myself surprised to have actually written my first Sam/Jack, just as some Sam/Jack 'shippers tolerate the Jack/Daniel squee and start noticing the unsubtle HoYay between Jack & Daniel. :U

It's such a relief (as a survivor of the crossfire in the 'shipper vs. noromo wars of The X-Files fandom) to discover a community of Stargate fans who perv over the whole damn team -- Classic SG-1 as well as New!Team. So there does exist a corner of the Stargate fandom where it's not a traumatizingly wanky place where fans fight like 3-year-olds over which pairing should be the only one to exist, because really, WTF is that about?

Pairing: Sam/Jack
Summary: This wasn't a situation she'd ever expected to relive.
Reason for Rec'ing:

pepper_field 's story is based on the crack premise that Sam is a virgin, linked from a really funny fanfic meta by

rowan_d about some of the Samantha Carter & Helen Magnus stories that overlook rather obvious features of the characters.

Today you are.

Wednesday was a long day at work; I was finally at home, decompressing, reading some hot Daniel/Vala smut... and then after leaving a review, I got the notion to try something new: a Daniel/Sam story.

Because I don't 'ship Daniel & Sam, I wanted to gain insight into their relationship dynamic from another segment of the Stargate fandom. What is it about their interaction that I might be missing? Because when I see MS & AT in scenes together, their body language is the same as my body language around my brother. Have I been projecting my perceptions as an older sister onto Sam's character? I wanted to see if the Daniel/Sam fandom handily destroys the fanon of Sam & Daniel as "just like brother & sister".

And now I'm pissed: there's Vala-bashing in the Sam/Daniel story.

Vala [....] could tell that something was up. It didn’t take her long to notice the furtive glances. The close proximity. Even the occasional drifting hand under the commissary tables. At first she was angry. This blonde harlot stole HER Daniel away. But as she watched them, she knew that Daniel was never really hers. And in true Vala fashion, she turned her sights to someone else.

Hello? "True Vala fashion" would be for Vala to ask if she could join them in a threesome. Vala doesn't think of Sam as a "harlot"; in fact, she respects Sam's authority as a leader (see "The Uninvited") and spends time shopping and drinking with her ("Family Ties").

Why does an author need to bash a character for the sake of focusing on their fave OTP? WTF???!!!!

I don't bash Daniel/Sam in my stories, or any other pairing. In fact, as a multi-shipper, I toss in innuendo for other pairings (Jack/Daniel & Sam/Vala being a couple favorites) because it gives the characterizations more energy and dynamism, and acknowledges the depth of their previous history together.

Anyone have any Sam/Daniel fanfic recs that don't have character bashing? Maybe there should be warnings on 'shipper fics if there's character bashing... LOL. "Sam/Vala antipathy" or something. Because it ruined my evening.

Last year while I was writing "Bookends", I asked

cleothemuse "What kind of car does Daniel drive?" She listed several options: the Land Rover he rented in Cairo, a Jeep, or Jack's truck, which Jack might've left when he moved to DC. I chose Jack's truck. I was just over at

lc59's Colour Meme, and she's given Vala a 1965 Mustang Shelby Fastback.

So canonically, what kind of vehicles do Jack O'Neill, Samantha Carter, Cameron Mitchell, and Daniel Jackson drive?

Do Teal'c and Vala drive cars?
