Title: Legion
Author: [livejournal.com profile] ultranos
Rating/Warning: PG, immediately post-"Gemini", s08 SG-1
Notes: Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] shanghairain for the quick once-over editing job. If it sucks, it's my fault, not his. Also, [livejournal.com profile] abyssinia4077? This one's for you.
Summary: "'What is your name?' 'My name is Legion," he replied, "for we are many.'" (Mark 5:9)

So, I suppose I should come clean about some of the inspiration for this fic. A few months eariler, I had finished reading a long Hellsing fic that included a reference to the demon Legion, along with the relevant Biblical quote. Ever since, that quotation had stuck in my brain.

Eventually, as things are wont to do in my head, during a conversation about Sam and RepliCarter and "why 'Gemini' is the most underrated episode of Stargate ever", the two converged. I know I wanted to explore the war in Sam's head after "Gemini", how much it haunted her, and the Biblical allusion just snapped into place.

The summary is just the quotation. To this day, I'm not sure if it works or doesn't. I couldn't think of a good actual summary for the fic, beyond "Sam angsts after 'Gemini".

I think the quote works better.
