Although I highly enjoy many of the McShep stories that are being posted, I'm having trouble finding long McShep fics. I was hoping ya'll can help me. I'm not particularly picky about what the stories is about, just that it is long.

I'd apperciate any help ya'll can send my way.

Thanks!

EDIT: Thanks guys! There's now much for me to short through and read.

Did you read last years SGABigBang (http://sgabigbang.talkoncorners.net/?view=fiction) fics?

[bluespirit-star.livejournal.com]

xanthelj writes very long & wonderfully satisfying stories - mainly McKay/Sheppard but a few Beckett/McKay & Beckett/McKay/Sheppard.
She always give very full notes & content warnings so check them out to see if the stories will be your kind of thing.
Her fic lj is here (http://xanthestories.livejournal.com/) & her website is here (http://www.xanthe.org/).

Not sure how long you want, but hope some of these work.


For romance:

Cleave (http://www.unrealwords.com/thestuff/sga/cleave.html) and Scenes from a Lesser War (http://www.unrealwords.com/thestuff/sga/scenes.html) by amireal. The former is a great twist on the allergy theme, and the latter is a DADT fic which particularly stands out. NC-17 for both.


For awkward, painful romance:

Your Inevitable Unhappy Ending (http://www.helenish.net/inevitable.shtml) (which, FYI, does actually have a happy ending) and everything else (http://www.helenish.net/stories.html) by helenish. NC-17.


For hilarity:

Little House on the Mainland (http://dejabu.robot-army.org/lhotm.html), The Modern Man's Hustle (http://dejabu.robot-army.org/sgahustle.html), There's No Such Thing As Daniel Jackson (http://dejabu.robot-army.org/sgajackson.html), and everything else (http://dejabu.robot-army.org/space.html) by eleveninches. All McKay/Sheppard, with some side pairings. Mostly PG-13 or R-ish.

where eagles dare... we will be playing poker a hundred miles in the opposite direction (http://01100100.fanfib.org/fanfiction/sga/eagles.html) by 01100100. SG-1 comes to visit, and are totally annoyingly better at everything than Team Sheppard. PG-13-ish.


For creepiness:

I Am Your Image Dressed as the World (http://mirabile-dictu.livejournal.com/66173.html) by mirabile_dictu. Now with classic science fiction flavour.

The Ratio of Burning (http://stillane.killerstar.net/stories/ratio.html) by stillane.

Visiting Hours (http://www.improvidence.net/visiting_hours.html) by lilysaid. Romance in shades of Stockholm Syndrome.


And somebody's mentioned cesperanza and Written by the Victors (http://www.trickster.org/speranza/cesper/Victors.html), right? Right.

There's four pages of recs here http://sheafrotherdon.livejournal.com/265177.html?page=1#comments and most of what I saw were in the over ten page range. There's vids and artwork scattered everywhere, but stuff's clearly labeled.

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

Epic Recs primarily recs stories that are 200 KB (40,000 words) or more and has around forty SGA recs:

http://community.livejournal.com/epic_recs/

SGA tagged fics: http://community.livejournal.com/epic_recs/tag/fandom:+stargate+atlantis

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

And, what the hell -- The shortest SGA fic I've ever written is 110 KB (18,000 words) and most are much longer: http://jane-elliot.inkquill.com/index.html

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Most of the ones I find seem to be one-shots around 9,000 words. That's actually fairly short compared to what's being written in other fanfic communities. I just like longer fics. :)

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

I totally agree (in fact, I write what I read, which is why my stories keep getting longer and longer and...)

SGA has different standards for length than what I've seen, having come from The Sentinel and Due South fandoms (now *they* know what a long story is:) I saw a previous comment that implied that ten pages was a long fic, and I just had to shake my head.

Good luck in your search!

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

The longest one I've read is a HP fanfic that was literally around 310 pages when all was said and it down. It took forever to read but it was good.

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

Sounds tempting (was it Harry/Snape?)

You really should check out Epic Recs -- more than half of the stories recced are over 40,000 words and the vast majority are over 10,000 words. Plus you have summaries of the stories and full reviews.

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Hehehe doing it now.

No, it is was actually Harry/Draco. More my taste than Harry/Snape. Love Snape, really do and hate evil-british-writer-lady now with a passions...but meh. :)

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

I read both, but primarily H/S. One of my co-reccers has H/D covered:)

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Oh the joys of fandoms. I always say, those that flock together, rec together. XD

A Life Less Ordinary by puddle_of_goo
http://puddle-of-goo.livejournal.com/23730.html

Is long McShep and really nice I have read it a few times.

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

This is awesome! Thanks! Much to keep me occupied.

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

No, but I will now. :) Thanks!

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Thanks, looking now. :)

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Anything really, not picky. :) Thanks, I'll be reading through those like crazy I think.

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I'm going be busy for a month it seems. XD

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Read it already, very good. :) I really enjoyed it!

[(Anonymous)]

would you happen to have a link to it?

[estel_angel.livejournal.com]

Note good at links but Ardhanarishvara by Auburn, monanotlisa

http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=13131&warning=12

Is an excellent story at 212532 is quite a high worh count. I does have other pairing then Mcshep. I is one of my favourites just wish i had more time so i can read it again. Hope you like.

[tinastarline.livejournal.com]

Let me look through my bookmarks and get back to you. I might of saved it, but I read it a while ago.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

There's In The City of Seven Walls (http://www.eternalvox.net/%7Eauburn/citysevenwalls.html) by Auburn. It's full novel length and complete.

Then, if you mind self-pimping or a WIP, Out Of Bounds (http://www.icarus.slashcity.net/stories/outofbounds.html) is novel-length. It's 120,000 words and will likely be 150K words when its done, which Microsoft Word tells me is over 300 pages.

*g* Have fun. You're not the only one who loves longfic.
