Why This Must Be Read: A wonderful added extra for one of my favorite episodes, "Fire and Water". Dawn wrote lovely h/c and team stuff and this is a lovely example of that.
Almost at the gate. We're almost there. Almost home. Daniel focused on putting one foot in front of the other. The surge of relief and adrenaline that had flooded him when he'd breached the surface of the water and seen Jack, Sam, and Teal'c had ebbed, leaving him almost numb with fatigue.
And cold. Very, very cold. He wrapped his arms around himself and stumbled over the sandy terrain, doing his best to ignore the pounding in his head. He tried not to think too much about what Nem had said.
"It could...damage."
Damage. Brain damage. He swallowed. No, no. He was okay. He felt okay. Well, except for the hunger pangs in his stomach and the tired trembling of his muscles and the throbbing in his head.
One times one is one. Two times two is four. Four times four is sixteen. The square root of twenty-five is five. My name is Daniel Jackson. I was born on July eighth.
He stumbled, and jerked back to the present, realizing his eyelids had drifted closed, plunging him into darkness. A tightness closed around his right arm, and he opened his eyes and looked at Jack, then at the hand wrapped around his bicep.
"Hey." Jack's grip tightened slightly. "You okay?"
Daniel realized they'd all stopped walking and were now looking at him, each with varying degrees of concern in their eyes. Even Teal'c's normally stoic face was tinged with worry.
"Yeah." Daniel raised one hand to rub at his temple and offered a tiny smile. "Just tired, and I really need half a dozen aspirin."
