The Nantucket AU is a sprawling AU written between 2007-2012 by @besweatered, @sheafrotherdon, @theletteraesc, and myself that attempted to answer the question: what would life be like for John Sheppard and Rodney McKay if they lived on a small island off the coast of North America? Mostly, it seemed, our answers involved a lot of naps, sandwiches, and coziness.
Given the latest changes on LiveJournal, the community where the AU has been hosted until now will soon be deleted. The full run of Nantucket stories is now hosted on AO3, and you can find all the stories in this series (all 80k+ words) over there for the first time.
I’ve also set up a collection to gather together the art, fic, and podfic inspired by the Nantucket AU. Broken links and name changes have made it hard for me to track down everything that I know is out there—if you made something Nantucketish back in the day, please feel free to add it to the collection.
I read this AU before I was even in the fandom, because I knew @theletteraesc from elsewhere and knew if she was involved it was good. So I honestly read this as a standalone thing, with no concept of any of the background parts, and it did not disappoint. I wholeheartedly recommend it, while simultaneously mourning the platform collapse that’s leading to it getting moved.
