Random things I vaguely want to write (or want someone else to write)

[magibrain]

• An SG1 fic set in Ancient Egypt, wherein it turns out the Goa'uld are terrible at architecture and engineering (because of their habit of, you know, stealing all of their technology and not innovating), and so they have no idea how to actually build pyramids beyond going "Rargh! Humans! Build us a great platform!" So it would follow all the Egyptian engineers who had to design the Pyramids, solve the resource management issues, and manage conscription and labor. Because fuck you, alien conspiracy theories, the Egyptians were-too smart enough to pull that off and occasionally I come up with braintics to give agency back to people whom plot convenience has casually robbed of agency.

• A White Collar fic where some criminal trolls the police and eventually the FBI, in part by making latex fakes of Al Capone's fingerprints and using them to leave bewildering evidence at crime scenes.

as;ldkfjas;dlkjfasd now I really want to write #2. XDDD

DO IT.

DO IT SO I DON'T HAVE TO.

SOMEONE NEEDS TO.

.... and +1,000,000 to the first prompt as well; I fnord'd over it the first time I read your post, but that is SO GREAT and also makes a whole lot more sense in terms of everything we saw about the Gou'ald than the actual canon version.

That first one needs to be written. If not in fanfic, then someone needs to write an original story about the ancient Egyptians teaching aliens about architecture.
