The popularity of Stargate SG - 1 crossover fanfiction lies in the ability to combine different fictional universes. Fans love seeing their favorite SG - 1 characters in new and unexpected situations with characters from other shows.
The character dynamics are a big draw too. When SG - 1 characters interact with those from other shows, it creates unique relationships and conflicts. These interactions can be humorous, intense, or thought - provoking. Fans are always eager to see how Jack O'Neill might react to a character from a different series, or how Daniel Jackson would handle a new and strange situation in a crossover setting. All these elements combined make Stargate SG - 1 crossover fanfiction very popular.
The rich universe of Stargate SG1. It has a complex mythology with different planets, alien races, and advanced technologies. Writers can explore so many different ideas within this setting. For example, they can create stories about new alien encounters or how Earth deals with newfound technologies.
Well, for one thing, it gives fans a chance to be creative. They can create an OC with unique abilities or a special backstory. And when you combine that with time travel, you can have the OC interact with different versions of the Stargate SG1 characters. For example, they could meet a younger or older version of Jack O'Neill. It's like opening a whole new set of doors in the Stargate world.
Well, it allows for new perspectives. Since the OC (original character) is new to the Stargate SG1 world, we can see familiar settings and events through fresh eyes. It's like getting a new view on an old favorite.
The exploration of different Stargate settings. SG1 focuses on Earth - based Stargate travel, while Atlantis is all about the Pegasus galaxy. When they cross over, it allows for a broader exploration of the Stargate universe. For instance, we can see how the technology from one galaxy might be applied in the other. Also, the different alien races and cultures from both series can be mashed up, leading to unique storylines and conflicts. For example, the Goa'uld from SG1 could potentially interact with the Wraith from Atlantis in a crossover fanfic, which would be really exciting.
I like 'Buffy in the SGC'. In this fanfic, Buffy is somehow transported to the Stargate Command. The author does a good job of showing how Buffy's slayer skills are both useful and a bit out of place in the military - science - fiction setting of Stargate. There are some really cool fight scenes against Goa'uld with Buffy leading the charge.
Well, in a Stargate SG1 and NCIS crossover fanfiction, there could be a situation where an alien artifact is found at a crime scene that NCIS is investigating. The SG1 team is then called in to figure out what it is. Daniel Jackson could start rambling about the historical and alien significance of the artifact, while Abby from NCIS is trying to analyze it from a forensic perspective. It would be a great mix of science - fiction and crime - solving elements.
Well, character consistency is key. The characters from SG1 should act like they do in the show. Also, a good crossover will blend the different universes or shows' lore smoothly. For example, if it's a crossover with Stargate Atlantis, how the technology and cultures interact is important.
Some of the best Smallville and Stargate SG1 crossovers involve character interactions. For instance, Lex Luthor could get involved with the NID from Stargate SG1. This could create a whole new dynamic of power - hungry characters vying for control over alien technology. It makes for a really exciting read as the two universes collide in unexpected ways.
One great 'Stargate Atlantis' and 'SG1' crossover fanfiction is 'The Lost City Reunion'. It brings together characters from both series in an exciting adventure. The story focuses on how the teams from SG1 and Atlantis collaborate to face a new and powerful enemy. It has great character interactions and stays true to the spirit of both shows.
One of the most interesting storylines could be a situation where the technology from Stargate SG1 somehow finds its way into the NCIS world. For example, a Goa'uld symbiote might be discovered during an NCIS investigation on a military base. The NCIS agents, being used to normal criminal investigations, would be completely out of their depth dealing with alien technology and the threat of a parasitic alien life form. This would force them to team up with the Stargate SG1 team who have the expertise in dealing with such threats.
