1. I am looking for AUs in which John is from the Pegasus galaxy. I know of Greenconverses' story Not in the Stars with Athosian!John, Tielan's story Discomforted with Satedan!John, and Smittywing's switchverse snippet (with cool art from Pentapus). Are there any others like this? Any length and pairing is fine.

ETA: To clarify, I meant AUs where John is from the Pegasus galaxy as it is in canon (more or less), not fairy tales set in a kingdom called Pegasus or the like. E.g. scenarios with John as an Athosian trader, a Genii soldier, a Satedan survivor, a desperate Hoffan scientist, or maybe a (heretic?) Daganian monk, or just a native from a non-canon Pegasus culture, who then encouters the Atlantis expedition from the "other side", i.e. John as the alien meeting the Earth people.

2. I am looking for SGA/Highlander crossovers, preferably with John as an Immortal.

Pre- S. I'm noticing some of the stories you mentioned are John/Teyla, but you didn't specify a pairing or even prefered genre (het? slash, gen?) so I just want to check if slash fics are OK with you, as that's what I mostly read, and warn you that the following stories will be slash, or at least slash-y.

For 1# I recall a few fairytale(-like) AUs in which John is not from Earth/the Milky Way galaxy... lemme see if I can get Crossroads to cough up some links. grrrrrrrrrr
(Hopefully you're OK with fairytales, romance and harlequin-type settings. Now I just have to find the darn things...)

No Myth (http://skoosiepants.livejournal.com/100503.html) by [livejournal.com profile] skoosiepants, McShep, PG-13
Summary: True Love’s Kiss = Unbelievably Ridiculous Variable of Plan

Le Beau En Stasis (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=10926) by [livejournal.com profile] wickedwords, McShep, PG-13, complete AU so might not be what you're asking for, sorry
"Oh, for cryin' out loud," Jack moaned. "I like lemons. I like lemonade. Couldn't it have been something halfway dangerous, like a spindle?"

Fairy Tale Dynamics (http://atlantis-chat.livejournal.com/11887.html) by [livejournal.com profile] icantfollow, McShep, PG-13, not your average happy-happy fairy tale, but, nonetheless, not a noir or darkfic
Summary: He says his name is John and he's a prince. Rodney, born to anti-establishment parents and raised by a witch with plans for world domination, takes his word for it.

The Spare (http://mediafans.org/rachael/sga/atlantis_thespare.html) by [livejournal.com profile] wickedwords, McShep, R (I think), Written for the undermistletoe community's 2005 Harlequin theme, "When Enemies Marry." and also my personal very, very favest total AU fic.

Harvest Festival (http://ras-fic.livejournal.com/8828.html) by [livejournal.com profile] ras_elased, McShep, NC-17, total AU - their own (alien) rituals (almost) made them do it *g* i.e. a PWP in discuise

The Wrong Side of the Tracks (http://gaia.fictionresource.com/fic.php?story_id=00080) by [livejournal.com profile] gaiaanarchy, McShep and Carson/Teyla, R, dark futurefic AU - kind of. Don't recall if John and Rodney's heritage or belonging before the start of the story is detailed in its course, but if you squint it's a great apocalyptic-kinda AU set in a Wraith infested Pegasus.

There's one more total AU which I can't recall, with runaway!prince!MeredithRodney and runaway!refugee!John, in a swamp with shadows and magic and ghouls and stuff... but I'll post a search for it, since I can't recall any specific details.

All in all, some of these might even fit your request to the T. ^.^ Yeah, I know, my brain needs some punctuality installed...

Found the missing AU fic:

How To Run To; A Survival Guide By Prince Meredith (Edited By John Sheppard) (http://theravenwrites.livejournal.com/2074.html) by [livejournal.com profile] theravenwrites, McShep, PG-13
A fusion between Stargate: Atlantis and Garth Nix's Abhorsen trilogy
Summary: Prince Meredith's got a plan. It just doesn't involve dragging an unwilling AWOL pilot around. Or being killed by the Dead, either. Unfortunately, these things seem to be happening anyway.

This isn't really what you're looking for, but I mention because it has a similar theme and it was pretty neat. There's an everybody-switches verse by gaiaanarchy, sort of an introductory teaser, but just enough to make you wish for more. It switches the roles of pegasus and the milky way in the Atlantis plot, basically. Pegasus galaxy characters go looking for Atlantis in the milkyway, where they find a gate network in the midst of destruction from a scary alien force that's defeated that Ancients--the Ori. So Teyla is in the John Sheppard main character role, and Sheppard is the native guide type.
