I enjoyed this! Clever play on words for the title.

Hostile? No. Trouble? Definitely.

"Doctor Jackson?"

LOL

[cleothemuse]

Heehee! Daniel is SO much Trouble ;)

[cleothemuse]

Ah, Reynolds... for a guy with such a rocky start with SG-1 (first Area 51 then shooting Orlin), he sure ended up as one of their most-reliable back-ups!

This is delightful! A great Reynolds voice, too.

[cleothemuse]

Thanks! Reynolds evolved nicely throughout the series, it's a shame there isn't more fic about him.

Cleo, you pwn the world! I envy your grasp of canon, and especially how you make it so entertaining and colorful.

If this doesn't inspire other authors to include Reynolds in their fic, I dunno what will!

Oh, yeah, this is definitely Doctor Jackson.

ROTFL

[cleothemuse]

SG-1 went for ten years (more, counting the movies), so it's hardly surprising that there's a LOT to draw on from canon. Of course, the real fun is mixing canon and non-canon, and leaving folks remembering things that never really happened ;)

[campylobacter]

Yeah, that's the beauty of fanfic!

The One Prompt story I probably won't finish until after 6 March will definitely NOT be mistaken for canon LOL! Too much D/V adult content.

Although I am having a LOT of fun with electromagnetic wave modulation, kassa, and Sam.

Marks is mentioned in my story, but not Reynolds. I put SG-1 at the ass end of the Milky Way without a 'Gate, and only the Hammond to get 'em back.

Interesting... I'm working on my second Month-of-Love claim (my first is art, and is already finished), and it is a story involving Daniel and Vala stranded at the ass end of the Milky Way without a 'Gate, a crate full of kassa, and no idea if Sam and the Hammond will ever find them...

Great minds think alike!

[aurora_novarum]

Oooh, I love Reynolds's philosophy of odds versus evens (he has a great point!)

I totally didn't expect this to be the mission from Fallen. That's just great. I often wondered how that first meeting went.

Great fic!

[cleothemuse]

I couldn't really find strong canonical evidence to support Odds having a rougher time than Evens... so when canon fails, pure fictionalization steps in to save the day :D

I absolutely adore "Fallen"... it was the first episode of SG-1 I watched as it aired for the first time!
