Why This Must Be Read:
Author's Summary: A few weeks before Christmas, a member of SG-1 is critically injured -- off duty and right here on Earth -- but the event brings everyone together as they were meant to be....
This story takes place during that odd gray area between seasons 8 and 9 when all of SG-1 leaves the SGC except for Daniel, but before Cameron Mitchell shows up to resurrect the team (or something). It features trouble-magnet Daniel, who never fails to be one of my favourite troupes. And, yes, it has a first-time, getting together Jack/Daniel pairing, but as much as I love those two together, that's not even a consideration as to why I love this story. Because what it also has is an even stronger undercurrent of friendship, of people coming together to hope and pray for a loved one's recovery. The bulk of the story is a reflection on Daniel's life, of the people who's lives he's touched. It's emotional, it's moving, it has wonderful characterizations, and it gives a peek into a possible alternate future for the SGC, one that I would've loved to have seen happen. Oh, and it contains my all-time favourite Daniel speech.
Jack looked at his watch and counted down one more milestone. It was nine in the morning and Daniel was still alive.
Now the doctors were saying that if he made the forty-eight hour mark, his chance of surviving increased ten-fold.
On the other hand, the longer he remained in a coma....
Whoa, O'Neill – one problem at a time.
If Janet were here, she'd tell him the coma was his body's way of getting Daniel through the trauma. She wasn't here but Jack was going to go with it anyway. Although, considering that Daniel had been her favorite patient, he wouldn't be one bit surprised if she were hovering overhead right now – watching over him. It would be just like her.
Jack looked at the ceiling and suddenly whispered, "Janet, if he so much as even begins an upward motion, you do me a big favor and kick his cute ass right back down here, all right?" He closed his eyes and added, "Please?"
