sgagenrefinders: Looking for long fics with certain characteristics

Looking for fics that fit a list of criteria. I know this is probably not the easiest request in the world so I'd appreciate any and all help you can give me.

Length
- are at least 5k
- ideally 10k or more

Setting
- Don't take place on Atlantis or at the SGC. Ideally I'm looking for Earth-based AUs. Mention of the Stargate program is fine but I'm looking for fics where they aren't SGC members currently. (Although they may have had dealings with the SGC previously, or at the end there's a mention of them learning about or joining the SGC in the future.) Events can mirror some canon events or not, either is okay.

Characters/Relationships
* Are slash or friendship fics of a common slash pairing, ideally John and Rodney although other male relationships/friendships are fine,
* OR are team fics where everyone is encouraging and kind to everyone else (noticing flaws in someone is fine, demeaning them, even in thoughts, isn't)
* OR both - team fics with strong friendship/relationship element

Scenarios

- Do not contain zombies, apocalypse scenarios, graphic violence, long-term or permanent injury, or relationship betrayal

- These character deaths are okay but anything not fitting one of these is not okay
* the death off-screen death of a character who also died in canon
* the on-screen or off-screen death of a minor original character

- Have a positive ending

Misc - these are non-dealbreaker things
- Ideally don't contain the phrase "that's so lame" (or similar) to mean "that's bad" and "he felt like a teenage girl" (or similar) when talking about dealing with emotions, although neither of these are deal breakers and I'd rather have the link than not have it, but if you specified that it did have this I'd appreciate it - plus, I know this is probably not something everyone would remember about certain stories anyway so I won't expect all non-warned stories not to have it

- With main characters especially, I'd like to see characters that act like full three-dimensional people. John's self-sacrifice, for example, can be a large story theme, but I wouldn't want it to be the only thing John's about. This is kind of subjective sometimes and in any case this isn't a dealbreaker either.
