Author's Summary: If the SGC wants Jack O'Neill to play diplomat, they should expect him to lie about stuff.


Why This Must Be Read:

While this is the last fic in a series, it stands alone well. There's enough in the story to tell you what's going on. The basic premise of the series is that our SGA crew (John, Rodney, Ronon, Teyla, Kannan and Torren) have fled Atlantis to somewhere in Pegasus rather than be treated as the enemy.

I love how Auburn wraps up the series in a 'feel good' way. And Jack is just Jack.

This is the happy ending we all want.




"I'm too old for this shit," Jack grumbled. "You hear me, General Carter?"

Sam patted him sympathetically, while hiding a smile at his fake disgruntlement, Jack felt sure.

Retirement agreed with him, especially retirement on Atlantis, now that the city was back in Pegasus and the Trust stamped out back on Earth, the Goa'uld threat history and the Wraith back on their heels. Of course, retirement on Atlantis wasn't like back on Earth; he still got sucked in for things like this: a planet out on the far edge of Pegasus, mostly left alone by the Wraith, and according to traders, willing to trade in rare heavy metals and minerals needed for repairs to the city.

Colonel Lorne and his team had gone first and conducted most of the negotiations, but he'd acted squirrelly enough about the whole thing that Sam had started worrying and asked Jack to accompany him and her to witness the signing of the trade agreement. "I just want a second opinion," she'd explained. "This place has developed their tech much faster and to a higher state than most Pegasus worlds. Lorne says they're on the up and up, but he's been... cagey. I'm worried something else is going on there."
