Why This Must Be Read: This is a superb sketch of early S1 Daniel, trying to settle back into life on Earth when his heart is still on Abydos and his soul is still out there, looking for Sha're. Aching and real, and really good.
It felt like coming back to life, slowly and painfully, not all at once the way he had in Ra's sarcophagus. He wasn't sure whether that was a good thing or a bad thing, but he was sure that it wasn't something he wanted. But it didn't matter what he wanted. He had to remember how to live here, at least for a while.
