sid: (Daniel 3 little words)
[personal profile] sid
All right, everybody, let's get started! This 'thon is all about saying, "I love you." Or not being able to say it. Or showing it in a myriad of ways. It's about perfect pictures and lovely vids, quotes from fic (link us, please!) and brand new fic (we hope!)

Post in comments here, or post elsewhere and give us all a link.

Everyone is welcome to the party, so feel free to invite all your Jack/Daniel-loving friends!

The 'thon runs through the end of Monday, assuming [personal profile] jdjunkie and I don't collapse earlier from the sheer weight of all the squee. :-)/:-)

Horus Shoots Sheep

Okay sid, you wanted me to write you some Jack/Daniel instead of Jack Aubrey/Stephen Maturin - so here ya go!

Horus Shoots Sheep

Damn, this should have all been so straightforward. So why was it Jack who was tied to the bed, naked, blindfolded, and smothered in oil when it should have been Daniel? The premise was simple enough: leave a coded message on the nightstand and Daniel ‘Brain the Size of a Planet’ Jackson wouldn’t be able to help himself; he decode it and then tell Jack what it said…

‘Jack, what is this?’ Daniel waved the scrap of paper at him, ‘Why have you left me a pictogram saying "Horus shoots sheep"?’

‘What the hell are you talking about?’

‘Look, here’s the sign for Horus, there’s an arrow in this middle picture and I’m pretty sure that’s a sheep – unless it’s a cloud with four sticks coming out of it.’ Daniel turned the paper this way and that as if trying to make up his mind.

‘It’s a heart Daniel, a heart with an arrow through it? The heart is the important bit.’

‘So Horus has shot the sheep through the heart… Why?’

‘Oh for fu… Look you idiot; it’s the sign for love. A heart with an arrow through it, means love, okay?’

‘Horus loves sheep? Isn’t that illegal?’

‘It’s a female sheep Daniel, see, its got udders.’ Jack pointed to the extra fluffy bit underneath the cloud on sticks.

‘Still doesn’t make it legal, not on this planet, anyway.’

‘A female sheep is a ewe, city boy, get it?’ Jack waggled his eyebrows condescendingly. Daniel frowned over the pictures once more, his lips half-forming the words.

‘Ok-aaay - but what has this got to do with Horus? Ra, I could have understood…’

‘Why do you keep saying Horus? Where does it say Horus?’ Jack was getting exasperated by this now, how was it possible that Daniel could decode whole languages yet couldn’t grasp the simplest of messages?

‘There.’ Daniel pointed to stylised Egyptian eye that Jack had taken such pains over.

‘It’s an eye, you doofus! What, did you think I was going to do an eye with big spiders-leg eyelashes round it like a fifteen-year-old girl? It’s an eye. See - an eye, a heart, a ewe’ Jack pointed to each of the pictures in turn, ‘I - Love - You! I love you - what is so difficult to understand about that?’ He looked up. Shit. Daniel was grinning all over his Brain the Size of a Planet face.

‘Nothing at all Jack, nothing at all. And as you said it first, I won the bet - bring the oil would you?’ Daniel smirked as he headed towards the bedroom. ‘Oh and by the way…’

‘What?’

‘Horus Shoots Sheep too.’

I LOVE this!!

Just the sort of game I can see them playing, and of course Daniel knew what the note said. Clever Daniel is clever ... and sneaky!

Thanks for sharing this wee gem of awesomeness. :-))

Hee!

It's been a couple of years since I watched SG-1, so I don't have the details that you have, but hopefully I've remembered enough to make it believable. And yes, Daniel is so very, very clever so, nice try Jack, but - no chance!
Glad you liked it.

Probably not, but what the heck!

I love Daniel's interpretation of Jack's pictograms. I can so see why Jack runs open-eyed into Daniel's trap, when he has the feeling that Daniel is a "doofus" and doesn't see the obvious. Very clever Daniel! *bg*

Yes, but are we sure Jack lost? Seems to me like he won alright :D :D :D


I can imagine a Jack/Stephen version of this: 'Will you tell me about this missive, now, joy? "Watch Cupid's lamb"? Can Cupid the dear not watch his own, pray tell?'

Yes, won and lost are certainly relative terms here - there are no losers in any kind of shenanigans with Jack & Daniel, only winners, no matter what the circumstances!!

A fic rec led me here and I'm glad it did. I love a wily Daniel getting his own way. Bet Jack enjoyed it once he got over the idea of being outsmarted.
