Why This Must Be Read: In this 'first kiss / new-relationship' J/D story, mific shows us some of the Daniel traits I love best: this Daniel is capable, brave, resourceful and, above all, deeply caring and compassionate. When Jack is injured in an off-world battle and left at the mercies of an overburdened, primitive and uncaring medical system, Daniel is quick to go incognito to step in and do his best to protect Jack, despite being in less than friendly territory ... and, at the same time, to do the right thing for another suffering victim. While their circumstances and the off-world setting are grim and the outcome of Daniel's best effort to put something right is bleak, the shared comfort, love, and optomism in the last scene of the story are the perfect counter-balance. Kudos!
