Why This Must Be Read: Author's summary: Together they make a language.
Understanding the building blocks of Language may be Daniel's shtick on SG-1, but communication is an art form practiced by everyone. In this stellar character / relationship study, the way in which Daniel and Jack communicate is beautifully depicted in five action-oriented scenarios, each of of which is a self-contained adventure story on its own. It's a great concept, and an even better read - I enjoyed this very much.
While Jack seems to be contemplating suicide via knocking himself out with his gun, Daniel continues on autopilot, “It’s actually really fascinating, their language is agglutinating, so adding morphemes onto already existing words to add to their meaning makes – ”
“Daniel.”
