Jan. 6th, 2010 12:54 pm Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
First and Last Rites by Ade
"Savannah, I know you miss your mother," she says, not turning to look at Savannah but staring at the white lines of the Interstate. Sarah wonders if the girl ever suspected there was something off about Weaver. She must have, a child would always know its own mother, just as a mother would always know her child—Sarah has to believe that Sarah takes Savannah to keep her safe (train her) after Born to Run. Sharp and smart and not a little heartbreaking
Out of the Void by such_heights
Sarah kneels down, resting for a moment as she locks the safe again. Somewhere, no more than ten blocks from here, Ellison is doing the same. Sarah's ritual is different, but perhaps it is no less a prayer, no less an act of faith. Suddenly, she wishes she had a candle. She bows her head, her hand her collarbone above her heart, where she still aches fiercely for the son she lost. Yet it is with the same ache that she knows that he is alive, that he is fighting, and that she will see him again, whether it is victory or defeat that awaits them. Lovely snippet in which Sarah communicates with John across time.

WALL-E/Battlestar Galactica
Merry-Go-Round by Nope
Really fascinating BSG/WALL-E crossover, with D'Anna on earth during its devastation. If you could draw a line in time and space, sketch life ordered from conception to completion, it would begin here, as it ends here; in between, the loop traces from one colony to twelve to one, from Caprica to Galactica to New Caprica, from me to me to me, loops within loops, deaths within deaths, rising and falling forever. All of this has happened before. All of it.

Y: the Last Man
T is for Transcend by vibishan
Just because all the XYs died, it doesn't mean all the men did. This fixes a huge hole in the canon, and also gives us two new characters to root for. Wonderful - stories like this are what fanfic is for.
