Taking SG-1 prompts!

[sid]

I don't expect to get much useful done between now and year-end, so prompt me!

Jack/Daniel is default mode, but I'm down for gen or alternate pairings. You'll receive at least 100 words.

Winter themes, Christmas, New Year's are all seasonally appropriate, but anything goes. Well, maybe not death!fic. This time around. ;-)

"I was trying to stop caring."
"Why?" It was a truly foreign concept to Daniel.
"So it wouldn't hurt so much. So I could blame them for my failure to save them."
Yes!

Well done. An appropriately awkward conversation between them, and one I wanted them to have. They get stuck in their own heads too much, and that's still happening a bit at the end.

Thank you! It certainly would have been a much longer conversation if Jack had spoken those words aloud at the end, because Daniel wouldn't -couldn't- have let that rest.
