Why This Must Be Read:I love kidfic. I especially love Little Daniel fic with Jack doing the caregiving thing. This is a favorite of mine because it contains both those things as well as a goodly helping of angst and bonding between Jack and his new charge. There's some soul-searching on Jack's part in this, which I could feel was exactly how Jack would feel about circumstances like this, some humor with some typical Jack and Daniel banter, and the eventual bond between Jack and this little Daniel is heartwarming.
“Perhaps you could share my quarters tonight, Daniel Jackson,” Teal’c suggested. “I had planned on watching one of the new movies I purchased, but I am unable to decide which one to watch first.”
Daniel nodded slowly, though he didn’t seem to be exactly jumping with joy over it. “I guess I could.” Jack grinned and gave Teal’c a small thumbs up. “Okay,” Daniel said. He wrapped his arms around Jack’s neck and gave him a hug, whispering an apology when Jack gave a small gasp of pain. He slid off the bed and held his hand out to Teal’c, who grasped it in his own massive fist. “You have a nap, Jack, and we’ll come get you when it’s time to go home, okay?”
“Have a nap?” Jack rolled his eyes. “Sure, Daniel, that’d be peachy. Teal’c, not too many snacks, all right? He has nightmares if he has too much sugar before bed.”
Carter gave an unlady-like snort but had the good grace to look chastened when Jack glared at her. “Sorry, sir, I just still find it strange hearing stuff like that coming from you.”
Jack waved her comment off. “Teal’c?”
“Understood, O’Neill. Not too many snacks.”
“Oh, but it is pizza night,” Daniel said, tugging Teal’c toward the door, “and on pizza night, I get to stay up as late as I want!”
“Daniel!” Jack attempted to struggle up but gave in when his wound protested the movement.
“He’ll be fine, sir,” Carter reassured him.
“It’s not Daniel I’m worried about, Carter, it’s Teal’c. He has no idea what he’s in for.”
