'Healing Touch', sequel to 'Restoration', rated PG

[sid]

First came Brittle and Breaking, which are linked at the top of Restoration, here.

But people still weren't satisfied. 

So now (with beta-honors to juliabk) for my trademark Happy Happier Ending:

HEALING TOUCH

(touching)
I can hardly believe the stories they tell me. I feel fine. As long as I don’t think about it.

 

Jack tells me I’m a hero, but I don’t quite see myself as the hero type.

 

SG-1’s on stand-down, for an indefinite period of time.  That’s for the best. My friends are suffering, and I wish I could help.

 

Jack’s brought me home; says he’s not letting me out of his sight. He’s touching me a lot, but always hesitantly.

 

It’s not hard to figure out why.  Does it make me a hero, just knowing what needs to be done?  

 

(healing)
He’s so normal it’s spooky. God bless Thor, if that’s not redundant.

 

I kept my word; told him everything. Almost. 

 

Left out the part where he said he wanted to be touched. Maybe I’ll work up the nerve to tell him later. Meanwhile, I’m trying to give him what he doesn’t remember he wants. It’s hard; I keep remembering him jerking away from me...

 

What’s this?

 

Daniel’s arms are around me, and suddenly I’m holding on way too tight, but he just strokes my hair…

 

I think I may be getting his collar kinda damp. Don’t care. Never letting go.

Well, that's...better?

Why would Jack have difficulty telling Daniel that he wanted to be touched?

//sings// This is the fic that never ends...

God bless Thor, if that’s not redundant. Excellent!

All dark fic should have a happy happier ending like this. Of course the happiest ending includes porn, but they deserve their privacy after all they've been through. :D

Oh, yes. The guys are in a much better place now. Very nice.

It’s hard; I keep remembering him jerking away from me...

I think it'll be a long time before Jack is able to get over this...

Jack tells me I’m a hero, but I don’t quite see myself as the hero type.

You know, this may be the only downside to Daniel having his memory erased; he has no memory of his heroics, of being the kind of person who is willing to do anything to save his friends.

Yay for super happy endings!!! (And you complain about Certain People. Hah!)

Lovely, lovely. :-)

I'm so relieved that there is some sort of happy ending. At least a little bit of it.
And even if there will be always questions on Daniel's part he learned so much about the "new" and vulnerable Jack O'Neill that they will come to an understanding and new beginning.

You see, I'm hopelessly optimistic. *g*

Poor Jack, he needs as much help as Daniel. But hey whatever it takes to make the stubbournly hetero man realise what they rest of the WORLD knows.....
When Daniel's arms get tired, I'll give him a hug. I'll even give him back......
Lovely

*hugs Jack, Daniel and Sid* awwww nuts *sniffle* so sweet, and FINALLY our boys are where they should be (almost)together and at home (bed might be an idea though) :)

Nice ending huni, I like to see our boys together and happy (or at least working on it). You know I'm a sucker for J/D happyfic.

Very nice. :D

Awwwwwwwww!!!!!!!

Don't kill me, but...
MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE!!!!

I was okay with Restoration being the last chronological story but having seen this, now I want the SMUT. LOL. And I still say you could go back and play at different parts of the timeline since you handle the imprisoned psyche for both characters so supremely awesomely.

Love,
Julie-Rae
