Sam Carter /Jack O'Neill Ship Appreciation Thread 2.0

[hlndncr]

I've completely lost track of the days. I should have started the Drabbles Challenge and Countdown yesterday. So you get two count down stories today. For the drabble prompts we'll just have to finish on Ship Day.

Everybody ready?

Hang on!

[hlndncr]

Ten Days 'til Ship Day!

Carter, I need you!



No, not like that. . . . Well, yeah like that too.



But right now I just need you to come take a look at something for me.



Sir, this is a storage closet.






I know. What do you think?



I’m thinking why are you dragging me into a storage closet, Sir?



Because there’s only ten days until Ship Day Carter.



. . . And?



I thought this would be the perfect place!

Ten Days 'til Ship Day!
(Continued)

Sir, we can’t spend Ship Day in a storage closet.



Why not? The Shippers are always talking about us hanging out in here.



Yeah. Sir, that’s the Gutter Gals,
and making Ship Day posts is not exactly the activity
they have in mind when they imagine us in here.



Well what do they think we’re doing in here?



Eyes - Check


Hands - Check


Neck - Check


Lips - Check


Arms -Check


Rear - Check


Tongue - Check


Abs - Check


Sidearm - Check


Handcuffs - Check


Uh . . . Taking inventory?

Ten Days 'til Ship Day!
(Continued)

Carter, you’ve got to be kidding me?!


No, Sir.


What is wrong with these Shippers?


I’d much rather be fishing.








So would I.


Wait . . . really?

[hlndncr]

Nine Days 'til Ship Day!

Cassie, why am in this wedding dress?



Cassie: Because Sam, there’s only nine days to Ship Day and we have to find you the perfect outfit.



I don’t think this is it.



Cassie: Are you kidding? This dress has “Squeeeeee” written all over it!



Cassie: Fine. If you don’t like that one, try this.



Cassie, I didn’t like this dress the first time I wore it!



Cassie: But Sam, Jack said you looked great and he even called you “Samantha!”
If that doesn’t scream fluff, I don’t know what does.



Can’t we try something a little more down to earth?



Cassie: Fine.



Well, this is a little more like it.



But I don’t see what’s shippy about my uniform.



Cassie: Are you kidding? Love at first sight, Sam.



Cassie: It’s so romantic.

[hlndncr]

Nine Days 'til Ship Day!
(continued)

Maybe I should just go with jeans and a t-shirt.



Cassie: Jack, help me out here. Sam doesn’t like any of the outfits
I’ve pick out for her to wear for Ship Day.



Oh, I know exactly what Carter should be wearing for Ship Day.



Sir, I don’t care what the Shippy Hippies do; I am not going to this party nekkid.



Wouldn’t dream of it, Carter.



Well, maybe in my dreams.



But I’ve got two words for you, Carter.






Tank Top.






Now that’s more like it!

[hlndncr]

Nine Days 'til Ship Day!
(continued)

Jeans and a sweater it is.



D’oh!


Look at it this way, Sir, it’s what I wore the first time we went fishing.






Cassie: Squeeeeeeeeee!

Ten Drabbles in Ten Days!

Remember, this doesn't have to be hard. Just a fun little scene/story in 100 words or less. It can be humorous or sad, poetry or prose. Post them here whenever the muse strikes you (or you strike it)! I'll post a new prompt every 24 hours or so for the next ten days.

Drabble Prompt #1
Chance Encounters

[hedwig]

i started to read a fic a couple hours ago, and when it came to this SOO out of character moment... i just said to myself, 'that's not them in any way, shape, or form!' and i closed the page down. and this fic was nommed for some s/j fics award.

i'm glad the stupidity was at the beginning of the fic!

What fic is that?

Prompt 1: Chance Encounters
Sam was in her lab when she heard the Klaxons going off, and the voice of Sgt. Harriman over the PA system, “Unscheduled off world activation”. That was Sam’s cue to head to the gate room. She got up from her lab stool, scurried to her door and headed out in the hallway. She reached the corner, started to turn it when she heard her name. She looked back, saw Daniel and then collided with one Col. Jack O’Neill. His arms surrounded her to keep her steady. Jack quickly pulled Sam to his chest to keep her from falling and to give her a clandestine hug.

I'm glad you still enjoy them. I've been doing them for four years now and I wouldn't want them to get old and tiresome. Personally, I like to think of them as a tradition.

Yes, they are a Tradition and very Fun and SHIPPY one at that! Thanks!

Prompt 1: Chance Encounters

The first thing she notices are his eyes. An idle thought flits through her mind: like black holes absorbing everything within the even horizon. The next thing she notices are his arms, leading to strong, functional hands and long fingers that she imagines are capable of so much...

The hand reaches out to her and she is broken from her reverie.

"Colonel Jack O'Neill"

"Um..." she coughs and he smirks. "Doctor Samantha Carter"

Then she notices the smile. Another thought crosses her mind: I'm in trouble.

hlndncr, I love the countdowns. They never get old to me
