Why This Must Be Read: Can I say how much I adore secret santa fic that the rest of us get to enjoy? December was a very happy month for Sam/Jack fans with a plethora of wonderful Christmas fic. My favorite for angst turned happiness was Annerb's The Lies You Feed Yourself where we get to Sam and Jack who have drifted away from each other and where the Stargate has been disclosed to the public.  According to Annerb, the "fic is AU in the sense that season nine and ten and the Ori never happened, but also that the events of ‘Grace’ and everything that subsequently followed (especially all of Sam’s character development) didn’t happen either." Don't worry - the fic ends happily and beautifully with fishing just as all Christmas fic should. 

“Hey, Carter?”

“Yeah?”

“I’m…glad you’re here.  I don’t think I could have suffered through this on my own.”

It’s not like she had a choice, really.  When the President of the United States requests your presence, you sort of have to do what you’re told.  But she still knows what he means.  They’ve been through way too many firefights together for her to abandon him now, no matter how much she secretly wishes she were back in her lab in Nevada.

Bumping him slightly with her elbow, she says, “Anytime, sir.”

“And now we’d like to welcome to podium Major General Jack O’Neill and Colonel Samantha Carter, two of the original members of Stargate Command.”

The room falls into hushed expectancy, every eye trained on the pair of officers.

“Just like old times,” Jack says, one hand pulling at his jacket.

Sam smiles.  “Yes, sir.”

“Well, here goes nothing,” Jack mumbles.

Together, they walk up to the microphones.

Ooh. Good choice. I love the angst and how very possible and canon that felt. Ping me on Sunday so we can talk about the cryptkeeper aka the baby (everyone I sent the pix to agrees).
