Sam Carter /Jack O'Neill Ship Appreciation Thread 2.0
I love this show and do wish there were more Stargate references. There was an episode where Howard was fantasizing about Katie Sackoff of Battlestar Galactica fame, so I can see him with pics of Carter, too! I think it would be hilarious to have Amanda Tapping as herself and Sheldon going up and talking to her about wormhole theory and Amanda saying, Dude I'm not a astrophysicist I just play one on TV!
That would be incredibly cool!! Now I want to see it -who do we petition??
Back on topic, I was just reading a fic where Daniel finds out about Sam and Jack being together several months into S9 and he had no idea and was kind of ticked not just about not being told but about them being together.
It really bothers me when fics have Daniel totally clueless. I know he can be really narrow in his focus and sometimes lose track of what's going on around him, but he's not an idiot. While it's never been as obvious as with Teal'c that Daniel knows and approves of Sam and Jack being together I think he knew for some time about their feelings for each other and would be supportive their relationship.
So I'm curious what other shippers think. When did Daniel know? How did he put it together? What was his reaction?
The fic was VERY well written (the author has a wonderful command of language) -if you're curious, it's on the S/J fic rec thread.
I had always gotten the impression that Daniel did pick up on the 'something' between them, but in that slow, deliberate way that Daniel has. His area of study calls for thorough research that can take years to reach conclusions (archeologist & anthropologists don't RUSH). I like that Shannon pointed out the Danny look in 'Grace' -I didn't exactly pick up on that during my first watch (I was focusing too much on Jack's reaction to missing Sam).
I think that Daniel being who he is, and knowing Sam and Jack like he did, he would never broach the subject unless they invited it -especially because he was probably aware that they were precluded by the frat regs.
While I could believe that Sam and Jack could surprise him by getting together after the end of Season 8, I believe it would only have been in the timing, not in the inevitability: I think that he saw the evidence early on & remembered what he saw, but left it to them to choose what they would do. After his return from the Ascended cafe in 'Threads' and Sam's split from spuds (and the fishing trip), I think that it was S/J that initiated the transfers so that they could pursue a relationship...and that Teal'c and Daniel were well aware. I don't think they would have talked about it per se...that seems a little OOC for them, rather I think it would have been obvious to all four of them (and I agree with those who say they just don't see S/J secretly dating and T & Daniel don't know about it).
Remember Me ...mine. mildly shameful self-promotion, but it includes a little of what we've been talking about.
sorry for the double post, but I was thinking that we should start voting about Valenship date! (especially cuz I feel inspired to make something with PS )
I'll go with the date chosen by the group (no fuss, no muss).

"I didn't leave,because I'd have rather died myself,than lose Carter." ~Jack O'Neill
Valenship...I'm makin' arties (I've got 3 done) just cuz it's just so d*** facinating (to quote Jack).

So I'm working on a fic (lo siento - it won't be for Valenship. This one is for our lovely canadianfolk). I need to know - when is Continuum (the non-AU parts) set. My son is currently watching Toy Story and I'm just trying to do a sketch out (it's part of an arc) and I can't remember if she's a Colonel yet...if this is pre-SGA or post-SGA...and while I could look all that up, I have you all :: huggles shippers ::

Haha. I'm watching Pixar right now too. (No toodler as a front. I'm just childlike. )
Continuum begins right after Colonel Carter returns from Atlantis and is fired by Woolsey in SGA S5 Ep1 Search & Rescue.

Hope that helps.
Perfect. Then her attitude will fit perfectly with the emotional agony I'm planning to put her through *cough* Cuz. Y'know. I live in a cavern. A deep, dark, dank cavern.

Well. It's more like late S.10 through the end of Continuum angst (but since Sam doesn't remember the AU...). But I promise angst. Lots and lots of it.
