Why This Must Be Read: in this "mission gone wrong" the team, plus a Marine, Radek, and some archaeologists, end up stranded on top of a partly-submerged old city, the Gate (and the jumper) now underwater after a mudslide and flood. It was written for an SGA flashfic challenge "Strange New Worlds and Alien Geography", and while at first the worst they seem to be facing is dampness and discomfort, the world proves to have wildlife that makes things interesting. This is lots of fun, with amusing grumpy banter, John in peril, and a great alien encounter.
