Another jack_built ficlet (Sam/Jack)

[pepper_field]

CLUNK. Whirrrrrrrrrrr...

"SAAA-AAAM!"

Ah, the familiar noises of home, sweet home.

"It wasn't me!"

"Well, it wasn't me!" bellowed Rodney McKay, from the apartment opposite. "Probably Zelenka." People were coming out of their apartments, and Rodney leaned over the banisters. "Zelenka! What have you broken this time?"

There was a short, sharp Czech phrase

I am really enjoying these stories!

[pepper_field]

Heh - thank you - me too! Have you seen the comm? If not, go see the comm! jack_built There's half a dozen ficlets or more, since this weekend - it's an amazing brain-sucking AU.

[majorsamfan]

Just found it and have now caught up!

[aoife_hime]

Thank you - I needed this. Warm and fluffy and makes me feel like I'm wearing a particularly beloved sweater and a pair of nice slippers. And if this analogy makes no sense, just keep in mind I'm ill.

On an even more random note, at the Halloween conversation, This Is Halloween (from Nightmare Before Christmas OST) came on my playlist - it made things just a little creepier :)

[pepper_field]

Aw, glad it was well-timed. Seriously, if you want fluffy stuff, the comm (see link above) is really good - last I counted, there was sixteen ficlets, all pretty fluffy, posted since Saturday.

And, that's spooky! And, ooh, I love the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack - must find it again before this Hallowe'en...

[pepper_field]

Oh-ho-ho, you and I are so on the same wavelength.

So far, a few room numbers have been established, but to be honest, I don't think it's being considered too important. Although Sam does seem to live at 320. *g*

Missing Scene--In the basement

[holdouttrout]

Hope you don't mind:

"Not my boyfriend," she said, firmly.

Jack was still very close. It should have been uncomfortable, but Sam could just make out Jack's face with the light reflected from the torch, and the look in his eyes was nice. Very nice, actually.

Maybe she shouldn't have come down here with him, after all.

She thought about turning around and going back to work on the fuses, but found herself curiously reluctant to move.

And then it seemed like Jack was getting closer, and she lifted her chin, and then she realized why he'd been asking so many questions--stupid questions, now she thought about it--about boyfriends and evil twins.

"You like me!" she blurted out.

She was instantly horrified, and, although she was fairly sure he couldn't tell in the dark basement, she felt all her blood rush to her cheeks, burning.

The silence was total. Sam could just see Jack in front of her, arm still around her, holding the torch (although it wasn't pointed anywhere near the fuse box at the moment). She couldn't tell anything from

Awww! No, of course I don't mind! Yay for the kissing scene!

She and Rodney had arguments like this over theoretical applications all the time.

*sporfles*

kissing in the dirty basement of their cheap apartment complex while above them, the lights stayed off and the residents looked at their watches, sighed, and got out the candles.

*happy sigh* I love that image.

You're going to post it to the comm, right?

Re: Missing Scene--In the basement

[holdouttrout]

Yes, yes, I am. Just wanted to show you, first.

Do you want it as a comment to your fic, or as its own entry?

Re: Missing Scene--In the basement

[pepper_field]

Oh, I dunt mind - whichever you prefer. It might make more sense as commentfic, so people know what it's a missing scene for - if so, I'll edit the entry to say it's there. Or post as separate, I'm sure it'll work either way. :)

[dknightshade]

Awww. Very cute fluff.

[pepper_field]

Fluffity fluff! Have you looked at the comm yet? It's full of even more fluff. But beware - everyone's welcome to join in, and when you do, it grabs hold of your brain and doesn't let go.

[dknightshade]

Oh yes, I've been hanging out reading at the comm. I don't have any plot bunnies (probably mostly because I don't watch SGA so don't know the characters) but I'm enjoying reading everyone's crack. ;-)
