JACK/DANIEL BABY-A-THON (no infants allowed)

Brought to you by

sidlj.

It’s time for some commentficcing to offset any post-holiday blues! We'll be running this through Monday, January 19th. There's a supplemental post here for questions and general squeeing.

This is more-or-less how it will work:

You (yes, you, specifically) will write a commentfic or a drabble and post it here as a new comment to the original post. Put a title in the header, if you have one, and maybe a rating or warnings if you think necessary. Crack, porn, romance, sad, silly, dark – however the muse moves you.

THE ONE-AND-ONLY PROMPT: Jack calls Daniel “baby”, or vice-versa. Or both. Because some of us melt and squee and flail when we find that in a fic. And we are not ashamed! We embrace our “baby” kink. We celebrate it.

Let’s wallow, baby!

Jack listens to the phone ringing 1500 miles away from him and almost chickens out in the few seconds between the click of the phone being picked up and the first hint of answer from the phone's owner.

“Jackson,” Daniel’s voice is still on autopilot; he sounds awake but Jack knows better. And now there's nothing for it but to push on like he knows exactly what he's doing; the same as he's always done when caught in a terrifying situation.

“Daniel! How’s it goin’?”

“Jack?” Jack can hear scraping and shifting in the background, knows Daniel is blindly reaching out for his glasses. “It's four in the morning. Is everything okay?”

“No, it’s not okay. I woke up today with no job, an empty house, and nothing but fruit loops for breakfast. To top it all off, I stupidly sold all of my furniture and slept on the floor last night and my back is killing me," And here Jack stumbles, has to pause to gather all his bravado around him like armor. "So now I’m worried that when you pick me up from the airport in a few hours I won’t be able to properly dip you in that big romantic kiss I’ve been planning pretty much since I realized this retirement might actually stick." There it is: all his cards on the table and it's Daniel's move.

There’s nothing but silence on the other end of the phone, although Jack imagines he can hear the slow, confused blink of Daniel’s eyes. He knows Daniel wants this, knows it like he knows the longing in his own heart, but the pause from Colorado gives him just enough time to doubt, to mentally move to Minnesota instead of home where he belongs before there’s a puff of air like Daniel’s letting out a breath he’s been holding for more than a decade.

And then Daniel laughs, more air than sound, but full of joy. “Don’t worry, baby. I’ll dip you.”

Hell, yeah! :-)

8) Thanks!

::hands tissues:: Glad you enjoyed it. Daniel makes Jack brave about stuff he normally avoids, Jack makes Daniel joyful - sounds about like them, yeah. :)

::thunderous applause::

This just filled me with glee! Love your Jack.
Can I be a fly on the wall of that airport? please? pretty please?

Oh good. I was a little afraid I'd made Jack too ramble-y. I'll save you a spot at the airport. :)

OMG!!! *hugs her*

That was AWESOME!!

*hugs you for passing it over* leave a comment to her that she rocks as usual, from me? Please?

(and so I did)

::hugs you both:: Thanks to both of you.

Yeah baby!

Aww, boys!

Aren't they cute?

That's possibly the most jam-packed silence I've ever experienced. See my huge sigh of relief that Daniel understands Jack.

Daniel is fluent in Jack!

Sweet! Mentally move to Minnesota -love this bit! So Jack! And poor Daniel trying to catch up. Nicely done!

Thanks! I know, poor Daniel trying to make sense of Jack at four in the morning. :)

::loves!::

Yay! :)

This? Is absolutely fabulous. Go you. *applauds*
