Ship Day 2014: Twelfth Annual Sam/Jack Celebration
This is the first promotion Sam receives while under Jack’s command. She’s just bursting with excitement in this accomplishment, and reflecting the pride she sees in Jack’s eyes.
I love this little scene when Jack admits that he’s not as smart as Sam because he was having fun. She teases him back about studying a naquadah reactor being fun to her. The comfort between the two is great, partially because Sam feels that her intelligence doesn’t put him off at all.
This is Sam watching Jack give Merrin the crayons before she returns to Orban. Sam knows Jack would do anything to save that little girl. It’s a tenderness she rarely sees from him and it completely disarms her.
We, we, we! (Although the seal and polar bear are a little put out that the penguin gets his picture on the book and not them. Doesn't help that the penguin crows about being the mascot.)
She feels it rising, and rising, and rising, until what spills out of her mouth isn't a gasp, or a scream, but an hysterical laugh that stops as abruptly as it starts. She frowns. Above her, Jack frowns right back.
"Well. That was a surprise."
"I think it was relief."
"Indeed."
She laughs again.
After 2 years of searching, Daniel had never expected he would ever see his friends, his teammates, his family ever again. He wondered when he had given up. He couldn't pinpoint the exact moment, but there came a time when he could no longer picture them in his mind, or imagine what they were doing to survive.
So it came as a shock when an unscheduled offworld activation and outdated IDC had him staring at Jack's face through the MALP. And when a very pregnant Sam appeared on screen, it hit him like a punch in the gut. And then he realized: his friends were coming home. His family were coming home.
Oh, that one makes me want to read more. Nicely done.
