step to or step on?

is this just a meme on this thread now? @Knowledgeispower answering whatever feat the goa'uld has with whatever they can think up?

actually i'm just curious if within your AU they might be named as posthumous or still around characters

i have a question relating to the whole "gods were aliens" trope, what about the reconstructed indo-european deities? like yeah commonly known gods but there are older myths, there's also the fact that from india to greek, roman and even parts of baltic and germanic mythology some gods names are...

you know i think it's the first time i've read a sci fi fanfic that makes me genuinely more interested in the alien parts of the story than most of the other parts how does this actually end for earth? like i'm reasonably certain there's only so many planets the sgc can actually send colonists...

yeah honestly about the victories part i get that, it's honestly really nice to see something that doesn't end with "MUH (baseline) HUMAN SPIRIT" and "HUMAN WILL WILL TRIUMPH(didn't for the japanese)" in sci-fi like this honestly it feels like in canon the jaffa were written wholly as like...

i really like this fic, it's original and really captures the sense of scale of a galactic empire, and really reminds me of dune-like sci fi settings, but just one question, is the usa just going to keep scoring victories no matter what like a badly written HFY fic or are they actually going to...
