'On Call', gen drabble

[sid]

This strange little thing just came out of the blue last night, when I was musing about prompts: 

ON CALL

 

Jack stayed at Daniel’s bedside into the wee hours, seeking encouragement from the steady heart rhythm on the monitor. But Daniel’s face was a mass of bruises on shockingly pale skin, and there was universal concern that he hadn’t woken yet. So Jack sat and worried.

 

A hand touched his shoulder, and Jack knew he’d fallen asleep. Janet was peering at the monitors. Her hand smoothed over Daniel’s sheets. She turned, smiling. “He’s going to be fine, Colonel.”

 

“It’s General, now, actually.” 

Jack opened his eyes, feeling refreshed and filled with renewed hope. His faith in Janet had never died.

It took me a minute to figure that out, but when I did, I totally melted. I love the idea of Janet looking over them even after she's gone. :D

Cuz, damnit, somebody's got to. :-)

Very nice, Sid!

[sid]

Thanks! Yes, she's still needed. *pets Jack*

[sid]

It's wonderful to think about, isn't it? :-)

I'm glad you're enjoying! Both of these actually came to me when I got into bed last night - my brain goes strange places when it should be winding down.

[sid]

Janet breaks everybody's heart. *sniffle*

Oh yay for Janet, always looking after her patients!

[sid]

There's no stopping her! :-)

*whimper*

Very lovely. I like the idea of her continuing to watch over them.

[sid]

It's an enormous comfort to Jack, obviously. :-)

What a nice thought that Janet is still out there watching over them.

Lovely. :)

[sid]

I have no idea where this idea came from, but it's so nice to think about, isn't it? Thanks!

[msbeata.livejournal.com]

Oh man, that just piles on the ouchies.

[sid]

Her loss was such a tragedy. *sniffs*

[jd-junkie.livejournal.com]

You know, Daniel always looks so pretty when he cries. I look like nothing on Earth. See?
So nice to see Janet is still doing the rounds of her infirmary .... I miss her. :-(

[sid]

Daniel probably looks pretty when he's vomiting, lol!

Janet takes her Hippocratic Oath very seriously. *nods*

Sigh

I always believed Janet and Jack would be good friends. Friends who shared a great sense of humor and a love a Cassie. It is nice to know she continues to be there for him.
This is heartwarming.

Re: Sigh

[sid]

This is heartwarming.

Thank you! That's entirely due to Janet, I think. :-)

[starting-gate.livejournal.com]

You is so clever. Perfect Jack response, too. :)

[sid]

Some section of my brain is clever - I had very little to do with this on any conscious level! :-O

[aurora-novarum.livejournal.com]

Aw! How lovely! What an awesome not-dream moment.

*Misses Janet*

[sid]

Definitely not (entirely) a dream. Just Janet making her rounds. :-)

[fhartman.livejournal.com]

Oh. Oh, oh....

This is beautiful, sad, and beautiful. It took me a second, and then - just, yes.

[sid]

Why oh why did they have to take our Janet away? *sniffles*

Thank you.

[lokei.livejournal.com]

Aw. Hurrah for Janet, still looking after her number-one problem-team. This is brilliant, sweet, and makes me annoyed they killed Janet all over again.

[sid]

Janet has all the right priorities, unlike the bastards that killed her!!

I'm glad you liked it. :-)

[damietta.livejournal.com]

Wow, that was just perfect.

(I miss Janet.)

[sid]

Missing Janet seems to be the consensus. :-(

So very glad you liked.

[tresa-cho.livejournal.com]

This deserves daaaawwww on so many levels. Janet *tear*

[sid]

I'm so glad to bring some Janet!love to us all. :-)
