Author's Summary:
SG-1 keeps the base and themselves entertained during a lockdown.
Why This Must Be Read:
Daniel deciding that Teal'c should be the morale officer during lockdown is brilliant. But Jack is still bored until his team comes up with one last plan. Just a fun fic.
For the first time in the history of the program, the SGC was in a lockdown completely not of their own making.
“No really, Sir. It’s not our fault,“ Jack assured General Hammond. And it was true for once. It wasn't 'not their fault' because how were they to know invisible aliens had followed them home or who could predict the effects of a black hole on an open stargate? It was really not their fault.
Because it was NORAD's fault.
And since the way out of Stargate Command led through NORAD, they were stuck.
NORAD was on lockdown for reasons they refused to share with the SGC. Technically, Jack suspected that his most junior janitor had the clearance to be privy to NORAD's deepest darkest secrets, but no one who was locked down at NORAD had the clearance to know that they - the SGC - had the clearance. It was all very confusing, but what it boiled down to was that the SGC stayed in the dark about why they weren't allowed to leave the mountain. Jack strongly suspected a mass outbreak of the clap, but…
By some whim of fate, Colonel Jack O'Neill was the ranking officer on base when they became cut off from the surface. He'd immediately contacted his commanding officer. “Want me to go up there and flash around my shiny clearance until someone can tell me what’s going on?” he asked with probably more glee than with which Hammond was comfortable.
