Why This Must Be Read:  If you know anything about what I like to read, you are probably aware I will choose angst over fluff most of the time.  With Cassandra stories, I don't even have a choice!!!  It is all angst, all the time.  Hasn't this poor girl seen enough?  In The Box, we are looking at a future Cassie;  a woman who has taken on the role of care giver for an aged Jack O'Neill.  She experiences all the pangs and frustrations of anyone in this position.  Reading The Box, I have to wonder if the author has also seen a family member at the dusk of his/her life.  It is a beautiful story and shows the reader as much about Cassie as it does about Jack.

Oh, thank you for this one! I'd forgotten it.






and a bit of space, just in case...






I so rarely read death fics, but I have a soft spot for death fics with a happy ending anyway. :-);-) The observation that Daniel now spoke with Jack's voice and had his mannerisms was simply perfect.
