Why This Must Be Read: It is basically an one-shot where Daniel Jackson remembers some advice his old college roommate, Adam (Methos), once gave him. A very good piece of writing which is well within character parameters for both shows. And the thought of Methos taking young Daniel under his wing was oddly sweet.
"I did send him the written form of my lecture before I gave it. Asked him to look it over for me. No one else would take me seriously. But he never took my theories of history any more or less seriously than any others."
"And did he give you good advice, Daniel Jackson?"
"Excellent advise. I just didn't take it. He was always so disconnected from the world when I wanted to change it. I wanted to set the world on fire and he just sat back with his beer and told me not to burn myself up in my own conflagration." Daniel brooded for a bit on that old piece of advice given to him so many times over the years of their friendship.
Adam had told him, time and again, 'People who set the world on fire get burned, Daniel. And burning is a nasty way to die.'
