Jack tells Daniel to "shut up" once too often.
Daniel decides to give him The Silent Treatment.

Grateful thanks to my delightful beta-reader,
and plot bunny provider, Evelyn Duncan. 8-)

This is a tag for - well, any episode where Jack, owing to the vagaries of the scriptwriters, falls waaay short of the professional level of courtesy due to
his archaeologist, to the point where it really, really, really gets on one's tits...

WARNINGS: a modicum of bad language, plus it's almost gen. but not quite.

* Plot—? Well, There's A Bit Of A Plot. ;-)

This is another one of those stories I never thought I'd ever write - a 'Death Fic.'

It's set over twenty years into the future - so natural causes then,
and it has a happy ending. .I don't do seriously sad.

As always, a big Thank You
to Eos for the alpha and for de-Britting this!

At the end of W.o.O., Jack directs a lecherous look at Sam in response to Daniel's query about what he'd done during the loops when there would be no consequences. .S.T.A.B., the 'Shippy Twins At Bridge, no doubt intended this as one of those wondrous 'shippy moments we all know and loathe. However, Tejas pointed out that we don't know that's what he was thinking about. ::facepalm:: What was I thinking? It wasn't Sam who put that look on his face...

Another Flash Fic.
This was written for the F.D.A.S. February Flash Fic Challenge. It's not only flash fic, but a little crack!verse too. It's set around season 4/5 and they're both still in the dark but looking for a candle. Um, if you get my drift?

Daniel threw a few clothes and necessities into a couple of bags, and went forlornly down to his car. He'd hoped he'd have Jack with him on the journey. Now here he was, alone again.

He felt even lower than he had when he'd walked out into the rain after that fateful lecture. Then, he'd only lost his grant, his job and his home. Hell, he felt lower than when Sha're died. This time, he'd lost Jack, his heart's choice. He'd taken his chance - shot his bolt - and it had missed by a cosmic mile. It had all been for nothing, just like the rest of his life.

He slung his bags into the trunk. A bright cheerful sun shone in a deep cloudless blue sky. He felt like it was mocking him. Why couldn't it have rained? It would've been more in keeping with his mood. Still, it wasn't as if there were any tears to hide. He just felt numb. Beyond numb. Cold and empty inside. Like the Tin Man, he thought. Damn Jack O'Neill and his stupid, fatuous 'Wizard of Oz' references. Friend of Dorothy? Not even close.

Daniel gave a faint sigh and his body stilled. For an instant, Jack feared he'd stopped breathing forever, then he gave a cough, spraying a fine mist of blood over Jack's hand, and drew another ragged breath.

"For God's sake, get a move on!" Jack shouted at the unresponsive 'Gate. "Man dying here!" Softly he added, "Two men..."

A Little Misunderstanding
A Stargate Novel

"Minister of Culture? Yeah, right!" Daniel muttered under his breath as they left the dining room with their hosts.

"Wha'? What's he sayin'?" Jack asked. His eyes were a little unfocused but the slurring of his speech was minimal.

"Trust me, Jack, you do not.. want to know," Daniel said drily.

"Yes, 'do," came the contradictory retort.

"Ri-ight. Then I'll tell you later, when you're a little more sober - if ..you still want to know"
~ and when I've thought of a more socially acceptable translation, he thought.

"Want to know now."

Daniel sighed. "Oh well, if you must. They're, ah... just wishing us —erm, a good night's sleep."

"Then why all th' myst'ry?"

"Look Jack, you really wouldn't be interested. It's just - linguist... stuff," Daniel said dismissively hoping Jack would stay true to form and switch off.

"Hey, 'm interested!"

"All right, Jack, you asked for it," Daniel growled. "Very basically - and paraphrasing - in words that even you can understand right now - Ilarion just asked us not to bring the roof down when I'm vigorously fucking your ass!"

It took a few moments before Jack's remaining active brain cells registered precisely what Daniel had just said. His jaw dropped. .."Fucking my ass?"

"So what is your game, Harry?" he asked, resuming his seat on the other couch.

"I told ya. I just brought you a gift."

"Why now?"

"I wanted to give you a little time - a little space - to grow accustomed to— I know it's not something you'll ever... 'get over'."

Jack met his eyes and noticed they were more watery than usual. Just for a moment, he wondered what sorrows lay in Harry's past, then he dropped his head.

"No," he whispered.

They were silent for some while, each sunk in his own private grief. Then Jack's eyes narrowed.

"You've been getting off on watching Danny and me, haven't you?"

Maybourne didn't reply.

"Haven't you?"

"Can't deny you two were hot, Jack," he said at last.

The Master of Misrule

A novella in four parts

The sky was black above. The road below was black and shiny with rain. Street lights reflected from the slick surface. The car was black too, with tinted windows - more like a limousine. The cab driver - chauffeur? - opened the rear door for O'Neill to enter. Car doors slammed and he was on his way.

After a while, the street lights petered out. O'Neill was a little surprised. He hadn't expected to leave the Springs. After half an hour or so of driving through the darkness, he tapped on the glass to attract the driver's attention.

"Say, driver, where are you taking me?"

The microphone clicked on. "I'm sorry, Sir, I'm not at liberty to say."

"Well, who booked the cab, then?"

"I'm sorry, Sir, that information is classified." The microphone clicked off.

Classified? O'Neill was beginning to feel distinctly edgy as he considered the possibilities - threat assessing... It occurred to him that the N.I.D. weren't above using an innocent charity event as a subterfuge - and he'd certainly made a few enemies among them over the years.

Maybe they already had Danny for some nefarious purpose? O'Neill didn't like the thought of that one bit. Whatever was going on, there didn't seem to be much he could do about it right now except stay alert and ready for action when the journey came to its end.

Whoa?! It felt like I'd just been slammed against the bulkhead again. That look... that touch... then... It was something he shouldn't have said— probably wouldn't have said in any other circumstance. But— what, exactly did he mean? Was it just a very close friendship - or something deeper, stronger. I had to know...

"Just lost another team member, Jack?"

"Huh?" Jack blinked blearily at the television set. "Kawalsky? What are you doing on T.V.?"

"Always fancied doin' stand-up, Jack," Kawalsky grinned. "Actually, I've been watching yourshow. Boy, you sure pitched into Danny good 'n' hard there."

"Did not!" Jack replied, stung. "Anyway, he started it."

"Really?"

"Yes, really - as soon as he came through the door..."

"Well, let's just check that out, shall we? Give me your hand."

Somehow, Kawalsky was now standing in front of him, hand outstretched. What was this? Charlie's ghost? He didn't believe in ghosts.
