Why This Must Be Read: Cassie and Janet, on their first night. Cassie and team (especially Jack) in crisis. Cassie and post-Ascension Daniel. Cassie and Teal'c post-Heroes. Cassie and Sam post-S8, bringing the past and the future together.
Every one of these is gorgeous, thoughtful and lovingly written. And we get five of them!
The excerpt below is from the first, but every single one of them is wonderful. Go read and savor.
“You can do anything you like, Cassie,” Janet says, and she says it firmly, like she’ll personally have strong words for anyone who tries to stop that from happening. Cassandra pictures Janet glaring into the future, hands on her hips, and can’t imagine that anything could possibly get in her way.
But she’s not sure how to say that, how to make it sound real, so she just presses closer. “Did you always want to be a doctor?”
“Sure,” says Janet, and coughs. “Well, maybe not. There was a while there when I wanted to be a dinosaur.”
Cassandra remembers back to one of the books Sam gave her, full of strange creatures with long necks and sharp teeth and massive, three-horned heads. “What kind?”
Janet looks at her, startled, and then they’re both laughing again. “That’s not the question people usually ask,” she says, and she says it like not asking the expected question, like being something a little different, is wonderful. “How about you, Cassie? What do you want to be when you grow up?”
“Alive,” Cassandra says, without thinking, and then Janet’s gone quiet again, pulled her into a tighter hug, and the darkened world outside the window seems like it’s a long, long way from home.
