Summary
When an otherwise-uneventful mission ends in both an alternate reality and time travel, Sam and Jack get stranded very far away from home. They land in a reality and timeline that’s living out the end of the world and looking to their alternate selves’ adult daughter for a solution. Oh, and their alternate selves are dead.
Between some truly nasty aliens, navigating around their Not Daughter, and trying to make it through the day in a place they don’t belong, the big question is if they can even get home. The bigger question is if Sam and Jack can resist the tension that’s built between them over the years. Spoiler alert: of course they can’t. This is fic.
If all that sounds a little familiar to you, it’s because this is a massive rewrite of 2010’s Waves are Universal (see notes for more info)

Summary
While on a routine exploratory mission, Colonel Jack O'Neill and Captain Samantha Carter get caught up in a children's game that turns out to be the beginning of Rorilian marriage rites. When seismic activity starts to rock the village, the local leaders demand the ritual be seen through to its natural conclusion to avoid further angering their gods. Sam's equipment suggests the tremors are caused by an unidentifiable metal, but her science seems to be a point of contention amongst the leaders. She's convinced she needs just a little more time to figure out what is happening on the planet. Unfortunately, that means she's jumping into a ritual marriage with her new commanding officer. What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
Sam doesn’t give it a name, this feeling. She doesn’t even think about it much, preferring to glimpse it obliquely from the corner of her eye. It’s a secret delight that she shares with no one, scarcely even herself.
One story in eight parts charting Sam and Jack’s relationship from the start of S1 to the end of S8.
