Why This Must Be Read: This is an enchanting exploration of Sam and Teal'c's friendship, from the very beginning through post-series, to the backdrop of Valentine's Day. Sweet without being sappy, gentle yet strong -- here is Sam and Teal'c, exchanging teddy bears and smiles. A lovely read.


Not even Daniel’s and the colonel’s odd looks could deter them from four years of fuzzy, heart-shaped merriment.

“If they don’t want free candy, that’s their loss,” Sam says. She pets the head of the new bear nestled in her arms, a look of pure contentment on her face.

The more gruesome their battles become, the more they each look forward to the 14th of February. It’s easier to forget about the searing heat of Goa’uld hell and the sharp hiss of Replicator gears with tiny plush friends to keep you company.

Teal’c handles his growing collection carefully, putting them on proud display atop his dresser in his quarters. All four bears stand together in a neat row facing his bed.

“They almost look like us that way,” Sam jokes.

Teal’c smiles warmly. “Almost.”
