Why This Must Be Read: I found this story through [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]. I'm normally very hesitant about the Daniel Jackson stories I read, given that I'm rather picky about him. But this story is really good. There's not one bit of dialogue in it. It's totally told from his POV. It takes place sometime after Homecoming. Daniel's unpacked his belongings at his apartment and there's one box he hasn't unpacked.

I love stories like this. Moments that focus on a task that a character is doing and shows how it expands to encompass the emotions and thoughts that are attached to doing it. It's a wonderful look inside the heart and mind of Daniel Jackson.
