So this post started because I'm informed there are SGA fics out there that are better than the actual show, but I'm casting around for things to read and am open to recommendations from any fandom I actually know (including but not limited to SGU, OUAT, Vorkosigan Saga, and ST:DS9) -- or even anything I can read without needing to know canon. I tend to gravitate towards fics that are about more than a particular pairing (I mean, don't get me wrong, it's fine if they're pairing-centric, but I tend to like at least some character backstory/analysis/development and/or rudimentary plot) but I will try anything :) Bechdel Test passing is always a plus :)

I haven't read around in SGA fandom much, but [personal profile] havocthecat, who's a pretty prolific SGA fan and committed to ladycharacters, might be one place to start – as well as the SGA tag on her Pinboard. Would love to know if you find top-notch stuff.

Re: DS9, have you read Raven's Malice Aforethought? One of my favorites.

TNG, but still delightful: Valkyries is a plotty adventure in which Lwaxana Troi and a young Alynna Nechayev save the day.

And here is a tiny gem in which the Countesses Grantham and Vorkosigan encounter one another.

Shall try to drum up more.

Oh, and I think I've recced you one of her stories before, but absolutely everything of [personal profile] tetleythesecond's is fantastic. (Here's her Mistresslist of Fic, as she calls it.) It's (almost) all Harry Potter, almost all femslash about older women. Character and story and world-building galore. I've pretty much had it with everything to do with HP, but I'll still read anything at all of Tetley's. I first encountered her through Witch Night, which is more than twenty-K wonderful words of Wilhelmina Grubbly-Plank and Rolanda Hooch in 1930's Berlin. Little in the way of canon-knowledge required.
