Why This Must Be Read:
It shows a more realistic Sam/Jack post retirement that I haven't seen for a long time. The awkward transition from just friends to "just friends".
I love the fact that Jack worries about it and the fact that the author accepts the fact that Jack is older and not a young spritely thing.
Amusing and sexy, it's the way a post retirement fic should be.
But instead of simply saying goodbye to the way things were and `yeah, baby!' to the way things could be now they'd . . . panicked. Freaked out. He ignored her first few phone calls and after that she made it a point not to be around whenever Teal'c and Daniel planned some get-together.
Why they decided to act this way, exactly, he wasn't sure, but it had reached absurd levels. They avoided each other if they saw one another at the grocery store, frog marching down opposite aisles and, on one occasion, he'd vaulted behind the meat counter while she hid her face in the feminine hygiene products. The store's surveillance tapes looked like an instructional video on "How to Use Tampons and T-Bones as Camouflage."
