Fire on Target Why This Must Be Read: Gen Paul Davis fic is rarer than weapons grade naquadah. This short fic offers a superb rendition of a crucial scene from Small Victories from Paul's POV. A real treat!
Siler counts down to impact.
Davis closes his eyes. The seconds feel too long and too short at the same time. The silence is almost deafening as everyone fixates on the outcome. He can hear Jackson breathing heavily next to him, or is it his own uneven breaths?
“Direct hit,” Siler says.
Davis keeps his eyes closed and rubs his face as though trying to erase this moment from his memory.
