Why this must be read:
Because it's really funny! If you need a laugh, this is the fic for you. Jack and Daniel join Sam and Janet of a Mediteranean cruise. Jack, trying to avoid the unwelcome attentions of one of the women on the ship, hints that he and Daniel are “together” and that both of them are unavailable. The hilarity continues from there.
While Jack and Daniel's friendship is the focus of the story (and the humor), it also has some great team moments as well. The snappy banter between Jack and Daniel is my favorite part of this fic.
Excerpt:
“Hello, I’m Inga,” the woman in question announced in a lilting Swedish accent.
“Of course you are,” Jack replied, unconsciously stepping back and onto Daniel’s foot.
“Ouch, Um, hi, I’m Daniel and this is Jack,” Daniel said, holding his hand out and shaking her hand. “Where are you from, Inga?”
“Sweden, and you?” she asked.
“The United States. Colorado,” Daniel replied.
“Both of you?” Inga asked.
“Yes, we’re, uh, together,” Jack said.
“Oh,” she said, her eyes widening.
“Uh, what he means,” Daniel said, “is—”
“We’re together,” Jack reiterated, placing his arm around Daniel’s shoulders.
This is a quick read that will leave you smiling long after you're done.
