Teryl in Tulsa. This lovely candid was taken by TR fan extraordinaire Rocketchick, creator of SaveJanetFraiser.com & author of the fanfic masterpiece "Before Knowing Remembers." If you look closely, you'll see that Teryl is autographing one of Rocketchick's original artworks, this one derived from the "Clone Janet" website. Since TR has a big crush on Patrick Stewart*, I'm sure she enjoyed signing artwork that combined Picard and Fraiser.
*—It's true; she claims not to have brushed her teeth for a fortnight after kissing him. ("He has very soft lips," she reported.)
Isn't that a heart-warming UltraBrite smile?

Like any pairing, there is some *great* fic out there for it. Really wonderfully written pieces. But since Sam/Jack can be described as one of the dominant ships on Stargate, there is alot of crap. And I mean crap :|
Sam/Janet on the other hand, is alot less popular and IMO seems to breed better writers.
Besides, Sam/Jack doesn't really do it for me and I like to take a few playful digs at it whenever I get the chance

But it must be bad fanfic?
It's Sam/Jack fanfic

One problem I have with Sam/Jack stories is that Carter is usually written as a passive wuss, waiting around for Jack to sweep her off her feet. (Rowan Darkstar is good about avoiding this, but she's an exception to the rule.) There's much more of a balance between the protagonists in the Sam/Janet stuff—also less dancing around the 'ship in the middle of the room, which is the near-inevitable corollary to almost all the Sam/Jack stuff I've read. (On average, the Sam/Jack PWP seems truer to the characters, IMO.)
Like Agent Dark, I've been burned out by too much mawkish S/J shmoop. Also, speaking as a recovering S/J shipper (the more I saw of it, the less I bought into it), I have as big—if not bigger—a problem with the ship fanatics than I do with S/J itself. Let's put it this way: if I had to answer Joe Mallozzi's mail, I'd be far less forbearant than he is. If I had a dollar for every "When will Sam & Jack get together?" e-mail ...
Rather than end on a negative note, how about some Sam/Janet UST from Upgrades. You don't have to be a SamJan shipper to note that, by this point in the series, Fraiser is (hopelessly?) in love with Carter.

Besides I have read both stories "Before Knowing Remembers" and "Janet's Rite of Passage" and it was a luck for me to run away from Janet`s Rite directly in the arms of "Before Knowing Remembers". You are right.
I have read some other good Sam/Janet fic like Ampersand, Darkspell, As One or Family.sigpic

And now, in the interests of "thunk"-ing ...
