sidAfter a completely wasted day, I feel the need to make certain that tomorrow is more productive. So I'm going to take some prompts. I'll take 4 each on LJ and DW. Anything in the Stargate universe (except Stargate Universe!) is good.
Except Jack/Sam.
;-D

Date: Jul. 27th, 2009 12:49 pm (UTC)Her mother, while a teenager, had bought the china piece by piece, on an installment plan, with babysitting money and the money she earned by sewing. Simple mending and patching, zippers replaced, letting out and taking in slacks. Flyer in the supermarket, word of mouth in the neighborhood. Each piece swaddled in tissue paper and squirreled away in her hope chest, waiting for the day she had a home of her own.
Sam broke the china piece by piece. Near the end it was hard to even move, to pick up a plate or a cup, to raise her arms and throw it down, she was crying so hard.
She clutched the last piece, the big platter, perfect for a Thanksgiving turkey with three children at the table watching their father carve, to her chest, sobbing as she stood in the rubble of her shattered dreams.
When she was just a little girl, she’d named her future little girl Annabelle. Two boys, whose names changed periodically, and little Annabelle.
She’d thought Jack would agree to Annabelle as a name.
She loved Daniel. She did.
Trouble was, she loved Jack so much more.

Date: Jul. 27th, 2009 10:06 pm (UTC)oh, that might've come out mean. I didn't mean it to. I was thinking, you know, years down the road...well adjusted...finally got a life.
They'd never understand how significant a gesture it was, but we would. ::poke poke::

You're absolutely right. If one day Jack and Daniel tie the knot, that platter would be a true gift of love.
