Warning: None

Link: A Rock and a Hard Place
Why This Must Be Read:
This fic is written from Jack's perspective. Daniel is involved in an accident off-world and the only thing Jack can do to help is talk to Daniel while everyone else works. I love this fic for the interaction between Jack and Daniel, and for the insights into Jack's motivations. Despite being mostly Jack and Daniel, you get a sense of camaraderie about SG1 and you can see just how much Jack cares about his team.

You don't need spaceships and fancy computer graphics and Blowing Shit Up [TM] to hold the audience's attention. A good plot is much better. It's also, potentially, a lot cheaper.
If the show had more stories like this one, maybe the show woulda been taken up for another season...

I really enjoy this type of story - as you said it's one of the most canon like plots.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. *g*
