Why This Must Be Read: Bittersweet and beautifully done, Cyren takes us through Father's Day from differing perspectives: two members of SG-1 who lost their parents, and two members of SG-1 who miss their sons. Coping methods and characterization are all perfect. Any fic that leaves you feeling thoughtful is a good one!
Jacob Carter had never been a man of sentiment. Gifts and cards and mushy phrases weren't his thing. ‘It’s not the things we buy or the obligatory phrases we trot out once every year,’ he had said so many years ago. ‘It’s the things we do. It’s the things we say every day or the heartfelt things we don’t say often enough.’
Sam went straight to work after he died. What better way to honor her father than saving the world a few times, right? Now she wished she had taken a little time.
