Oh yay!! Thank you very much! I love a good caper!fic and this one fit the bill. Love the Goa'uld market and plan to go 'shopping' with a stolen credit 'card' and Jacob and Selmak and everyone's disguises. Nice Jack voice too. Very well done.

Oh, goody, you liked it!

::bounces::

You gave me such a fun prompt. And no, I didn't plan for it to be so long and plotty, but it worked out for the best in the end.

And I'm so glad you liked Jack's voice, because it's really the first time I did his POV for any length of time. :)

Yay for teamy goodness!

I'm glad you had fun with it. And yes, your Jack voice was very good. He's such a fun POV character. Yay for teamy goodness indeed.

Oh and mind if I friend you?

Sorry, I missed seeing this!

My friending policy is this: "Friend or defriend as you will! Participation is welcome, including (civil) rants."

So welcome, if you'd like. :)

Very cool! I've always wondered about this sort of thing--where the Goa'uld tech comes from, whether there was any trading between them, and all that sort of thing.

Excellent team interaction throughout, and I loved that Jacob and Selmac were a part of things.

Thank you! I didn't start with the shopping aspect, but it quickly took on a life of its own. :)

Jacob can be so much fun to write! I'm glad I got such a great prompt.

Yes! So amazing! This one is going to be one of my favorite team fics. Sam the shoplifter! hee! Daniel the hero! Jack and Jacob bickering! And Teal'c picking up recipes. Most awesome.

Everyone was so very, very them, and the tone was just...perfect.

Oh, thank you! Such enthusiasm gives me warm and fuzzy feelings. :)

Everyone was so very, very them

Best compliment ever! :) So glad you liked the fic.

Awwww! Teamy goodness! I love the idea of Thoth's neutral world, and poor Daniel having to work through red tape to get his team back.

Nicely done!

sg_fignewton December 4 2007, 22:03:25 UTC

Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it.

(And not just red tape. Poor Daniel.)

Great story! Jacob and Team on a secret undercover adventure! Oh yay!

Poor Daniel. (I had to double check fig wrote this. Hee!)

I love how everyone still snatched important goodies: scrolls, technology, grape leaves...all the essentials. :-)

Nice use of Thoth too, in the years before he became Anubis's go-to techie guy. Very clever Goa'uld/Tok'ra set up complete with cloaking technology.

Yay!

sg_fignewton December 4 2007, 22:36:32 UTC

Poor Daniel. (I had to double check fig wrote this. Hee!)

You people are all a terrible influence! There's no other explanation!

Jacob is such a marvelous character to write. And yes, the grape leaves are every bit as essential as the technology. ;)

Totally forgot about Thoth in S7. Good thing it worked out, hm? :)

Thanks for the great feedback! I'm glad you liked the fic.
