Toft is a writer who came to fandom in 2002 through a Kevin Spacey RPF mailing list [1], and swiftly moved on to much less fictional people. She has been an active writer in Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Blakes 7, SGA, and she now writes in a variety of smaller fandoms, including Sherlock Holmes and Mythbusters RPF.
Notable Work
- Second Skin[2], (SGA McShep):
- Also known as 'the' tranvestite!John story, this story was quickly and widely read and recommended.
- String Theory, A Concerto for Violin in D Minor[3] (SGA McShep AU)
- Rodney's a brilliant composer; John's a troubled violinist living in his father's shadow. Together, they make beautiful music. This story was such a hit when it was first released that readers exceeded the bandwidth on Toft's site. Teyla's role in the story came under criticism [4], which could be understood as part of a larger conversation [5] [6] about latent racism and misogyny, particularly as expressed by roles in SGA AUs[7]
- John chases Rodney through multiple alternate universes, trying to bring him back into their own. Written for the sga_flashfic challenge 'Dating'.
- Healing Station Argh[9] (SGA)
- A John/Ronon/Teyla/Rodney OT4 fic with sweet, romantic kinky foursomes and a novel Ronon Dex backstory. The Fourth Vine linked it in a recs list of "safety tab" fics, summing it up with "I just do not even know how the world could be a bad place when there is a story that includes both alien General Hospital and pegging."[10]
- The Girls of St. Mary's (SGA, Femmeslash McShep (girl!Rodney/girl!John).
- 50's English girl's boarding school genderswap AU; and, in the final part, 70's lesbian separatist commune AU.
- Written for Kink Bingo for the prompt 'fucking machines', this is another story that posits an unusual backstory for one of its characters.
- Elementary school AU in space. Written for Yuletide.
- Actor fic that mirrors the source.
