Why This Must Be Read: Maychorian introduces us to a delightful team custom, in which SG-1 communicates via Post-It notes. It starts as appendices to official reports, but quickly degenerates into substitutes for meaningful conversation, friendly insults, and jellybean tallies. You'll love the nods to various episodes and the deepening of the friendship over the years... until the very last one, with its nod to friendship still following to Atlantis as the grand tradition continues.
Short and sweet and chock full of teamy goodness. Go and read!
Then one day, on a random piece of paperwork from Jack to Daniel: "Tag, you're it!" That went back and forth for a while. The game acquired rules. Friendly insults were added, and became gradually more creative. They started keeping a tally with two jars of jellybeans on Jack's desk, the levels constantly changing as one got the other (and also because Jack would eat them, and then have to go buy more).
Paperwork became immune, because one ended up on General Hammond's desk and he did his frowny-face-lowered-eyebrows thing at them, so they had to find other ways to tag each other. Office doors. Coffee cups. MREs. Teal'c's backpack. Sam's forehead. That's when the other two were dragged in.
Over missions, through dangers, surmounting injuries and griefs—the post-its persisted, little yellow touchstones in time. Flimsy but resilient. Small but strong. Like the Tau'ri. Like the team.
