Why This Must Be Read:
Sorry, another painful fic. In less than 3800 words, Otter paints a picture of what-could-have been in a mission-gone-wrong.
The story starts with Daniel doing his thing on what Jack would call "another dry, dusty planet -- and why are we here anyway?" But there's another team in charge and we don't know where the rest of SG-1 is.
And Daniel's not doing well, in spite of Jack's support. So they go back to Earth and Daniel -- to Jack's dismay -- says he's not ready to be in the field.
A dream that night revisits what happened...
Which makes the ending even more devastating.
