Why This Must Be Read:
Set during that "limbo" (or maybe I should say stasis) of the cliffhanger of Lost City up through the end of "New Order", Moonshayde answers some of those questions about what happened during those intervening months before the end of "New Order" in a realistic way.
She also contradicts the oxymoronic canon that Jack didn't know he had a desk before, and does so in a manner that's just the perfect balance of snark and serious. "Stasis", is a tour de force in showing both the grief and hope of the team. There's humor, angst, and at the core, the deep friendship this team feels for each other.
The story is written from Daniel's point of view, with a slight focus on Jack and Daniel friendship, but each member of SG-1, as well as new SGC leader Elizabeth Weir has moments to shine in wonderful characterization.
Only the silence answered him. Daniel looked at his notepad and fiddled with the corner. He was so caught up in the stillness that he didn't hear Teal'c approach from behind.
"Have you not seen Return of the Jedi, Daniel Jackson?"
Daniel jumped, his surprise twisting into a frown as he stared at Teal'c. "What?"
"When Han Solo was bound in carbonite, his friends did not stop until they could free him." Teal'c stood a little taller. "The day will come when we shall return for O'Neill. Then, all will be well once again."
Daniel nodded again, but he couldn't say he felt the confidence that his friend did. He glanced at Sam, who had reemerged and had begun to pack whatever she could.
This was it. They were leaving.
With a heavy sigh, Daniel took another glance at Jack in the stasis pod. Hopefully, he would remember nothing. Hopefully, he would still be here when they got back.
"Just-just know that we're coming back soon," he said. "I promise."
