WEATHERING CONDITIONS

 

Snow fell, frosting his eyelashes, evaporating against the scalding heat of his cheeks.

 

Snow in the desert.

 

The top of his head cool; the heat of the sun emanating from the sands beneath his boots.

 

Winter-dark now; distant stars pinpricks of ice in a clear sky. Blinding, beautiful. Falling towards him, raining down on him.

 

The desert refused to give in to the night and the cold. His limbs were burning, his skin damp with sweat. He was suffocating in the cool, crisp air.

 

Daniel awoke, gasping, throwing back the covers.

 

The perils of sleeping with Jack O’Neill, human furnace.

LOL! I love it. And I know EXACTLY how he feels sometimes.

[sid]

Me, too. I usually wind up moving to the couch. *g*

Glad you liked!

Ooh, candy! :-)

Ooh, well done!

[sid]

Thank you! (The last remnants of the Feb. 13th blizzard are almost gone now. Just a bit of the huge drift on the patio still remains. We check on it daily - so I had snow on my mind!)

I think my husband has this problem lol It not our fault, I swear! Heh. I like the fic XD

[sid]

Thanks! What is it with some men, huh?
:-D

Shoot! Sounds like menopause. ;-);-)

Nice, one, Sid!

[sid]

*bows* Thank you!

And I wasn't even having a hot flash! (Neither is Daniel, btw)

[juliabk.livejournal.com]

hehehe! I should hope not.

I's probably just as well I'm not married any more. My ex was a furnace, too. I'd probably die in my sleep from heat prostration. ;-)

Lovely. :))) But was this a drabble or poetry? *eg*

[sid]

A poetic drabble with a mundane ending?

[riverfox.livejournal.com]

Mundane? Nay.

[green-grrl.livejournal.com]

Gah! The perils of sleeping with men! At least Jack didn't have him in the unbreakable octopus grasp. ;-)

*puns with icon*

[sid]

LOVELY icon. *drools*

Isn't he just? *pants with lust* paian shared the behind-the-scenes clip and caps. Nnnnggh! It is so unfair that CJ and AT and MS were all put into sleeveless tanks and other sex appeal outfits, but not RDA. I want equal opportunity objectification!

[spyderqueen.livejournal.com]

You know, SERIOUSLY. I find the man sexy as hell, even if he is older than my father (admittedly, not by much, but still).

[sid]

I suppose it's easier for me, since he's only older than my big brother. ;-)

But I never cared for him when he was younger! Some things just improve with age. *sigh*

[spyderqueen.livejournal.com]

He was decent enough looking when younger, but yeah, now? Holy god.

It's not just that the silver hair REALLY works for him, but some guys just get this incredible looking facial definitions as age adds character to their expression. And he is TOTALLY one of them

Wonderfully poetic and then the hee! Great combo. Poor Daniel. Open a window!

Thank you for this. :)

[sid]

Open a window and then sleep on the windowsill. ;-)

Glad you enjoyed it!

[execknowitall.livejournal.com]

Hee. I know the feeling. Too cute!

[sid]

Don't we all? *g* Thanks, dear!

[jd-junkie.livejournal.com]

*Raises hand* I volunteer to sleep with Jack, the human furnace. My feet are always cold.
Nice drabble ;-))

[sid]

Well, you'll have to see Daniel about that. But I think the position is already filled. Good luck, though!

And, thanks. ;-)

This made me giggle:

The perils of sleeping with Jack O’Neill, human furnace.

But I bet that the benefits outweigh any discomforts Daniel may have to suffer. :)

[sid]

Oh, my yes! That's what he keeps telling himself. *giggle*
