Why This Must Be Read: Well, this has to be fanfic, because if Jacob and George and Bra'tac were in a single scene together, the screen would likely explode from the sheer combined awesomeness. :)

But seriously, this little ficlet is absolutely delightful: George Hammond, Bra'tac, and Jacob and Selmac, drinking alien scotch off-world and pretending to be grumpy old men. What's not to love?


“But thanks to tretonin, this ‘retiring’ will be something we will have to face,” Bra’tac says, nodding to Jacob in acknowledgment of the Tok’ra’s contribution. Jacob tilts his glass towards the Jaffa Master in response. “I can only hope to die in battle before I become a burden.”

“There’s that,” George says, demurring to Bra’tac’s own code of honor. “But I was thinking more along the lines of spoiling my grandkids and taking up golf.”

“Certainly has its appeal,” Jacob says, probably thinking of his own distant grandkids. “Though it’s hard to seriously consider it when I have Selmak currently listing all the reasons golf is a stupid game.”
