Daniel Jackson/Vala Mal Doran Ship/Discussion/Appreciation Thread
For a while it looked like people were itching to make web sites, and looking for ships to promote - so sites came out before the actual characters appeared for the ships. Not just in the Stargate fandom. Rather shippy pics were out months before Prometheus Unbound. That's why I'd be surprised if there wasn't a Daniel/Vala celebratory site out there somewhere.
Please stop this semantic games! As I said I don´t accept this behaviour in soldiers I don´t talked about Ba´al (a TV show bad-guy) but about soldiers in the real world! And I don´t see why you call Ba´al a soldier I would call him a politician. He is a system lord! Not a Jaffa!
And yes I think as a villian he is interesting (at least more interesting as the majority of Stargate bad guys) but that has still nothing to do with the Daniel/Vala ship.
For heaven's sake, Vala is NOT a solider, she's a former Goa'uld host. What sort of situational morality do you think she would have learned in the past several centuries while being a host? And how many times do you think she has been through a sarcophagus.
Of course she is manipulative and self-centered as hell. Amongst Goa'uld, altruism does not pay very well. At the same time, she is not as over-the-top kill for killing's sake as she would have been had she still been infested.
She would undoubtedly make an excellent bride for Maybourne: think of all the fun they copuld have double and triple crossing each other.
My best Stargate bud just pointed out that Daniel doesn't raise an objection the flirtation like he does when Vala is slapping him around. Daniel communicates loudly that the slap hurts, the zap thing hurts, etc. The one time Daniel responds to the innuendo (when Vala offers to "kiss it better"), he declines - but he hesitates and sounds very unsure when he does it.
I'm not saying Daniel has nookie on his mind when he hesitates like that: but he could be considering playing her game. That willingness would mean Daniel is willing to play on attraction just as much as Vala is when there's a job that needs to get done.
My personal POV is that Daniel was having more fun than he'd had in a loooong time. But that's just me
No, he didn't particularly enjoy getting the snot beat out of him, but on the other hand she was a very intelligent, provocative woman on a mission. And he's really had so much worse...
(And where can I get the t-shirt and join the tribe?)
I got mine in Old Scottsdale after a particularly cranky weekend of judging. I think that's how you get inducted to the tribe. Lose your patience after listening to a bunch of people carping about field conditions when you've had something like 6 hours of sleep in the last 3 days and no coffee...
Sort of like Jack after he'd been asleep for a week in Fragile Balance...

So what do you think he's going to do *next* time he sees Vala?
