Why This Must Be Read:

Out of all authors of Stargate Fan Fic I have read, Marzipan’s stories have been the most effecting. No Stars to Wish On, is one of those. The writer has tagged this story as “team as family” and I think it fits well. But like any family, it is dysfunctional at times and you get a heaping helping dose of that here. I love those interactions, even the harder ones. If a story stays with me months later and effects my own writing in some small way, well I can’t think of higher praise than that.


“I thought you might like to join the colonel and me for lunch. Since Teal’c stood you up again.” She leaned into him. “Can’t have you hiding in your office and existing solely on candy bars and coffee.”

“Don’t forget chocolate walnut cookies. Isn’t that the cliché?” Daniel put on his best mimic of Ferretti, the quintessential joking soldier. “’That Doc J. He doesn’t know enough to come in out of the rain. Couldn’t find his way to a square meal with both hands and a seeing-eye dog.’”

Poor Sam. She didn’t like it. Couldn’t stand it when he told jokes on himself. Especially now. And here she was, forced into the middle again. While Teal’c managed to keep a stoic equilibrium without limiting his friendship with either Jack or Daniel, Sam felt torn in half. Forever the diplomat, the peace-maker. The child in the family who was only trying to knit her broken siblings back together. Daniel could admire her courage and her tenacity while despairing for her at the same time. He sighed and held on a little tighter.

“I’m happy to join you, Sam,” Daniel murmured. “And, who knows? Maybe today Jack will be willing to stay in the same room with me for more than five minutes. Miracles do happen.”
