These are all good but #3 is VERY interesting.

I like that it gives us insight into two characters at the same time. Yes, the others in the set do the same to some degree, but this one shows a great deal about Jonas -

- that he was well aware Jack didn't like him,
- that he was actively trying to find a way to connect with Jack,
- that he was essentially studying Jack in a deliberate attempt to find that connection, and
- that he was willing to mold his behavior on earth in such a way as to accomplish his goal.

I like exploring how you can say a lot with a few words with the 5 Things exercises,

To me that's the best part of the following this format - taking up the challenge to distill the meaning into a few words that are no less powerful. In many ways it is easier to write a regular style fic than to write a five things, which is essentially a set of drabbles. Those few well-chosen words can have a far greater impact because of their sparseness.

The image of Daniel talking in Elvish in his sleep is just LOVE.

Such an eclectic list! The first one, especially, made me sigh.

A lovely, diverse list. I want to know Sam's names for things now.

the way her men unconsciously flirted with any off-world woman in the right age-group

I know this one! The Puff'n'Ruffle! :-D

I like Jonas's desperate attempts to please a man who's stopped crying in his sleep and grown hard.

And Teal'c with his inexplicable Miller Lite love!

Woe at #1.
