Ooo, cool! I love (and ache for) the way Jack is more alien, and pulling away from humanity. Except his mate, of course!

or to hold the fluttering heart of a flying creature in his own hands

SG-1 wing!fic! *glomps*

I would never have thought to write wing!fic, but I sorta like the way this turned out. Glad you liked it!

Oh wow! If it weren't for Daniel, Jack would be long gone but there's no way Jack can leave him behind. Excellent fic. Packs a lot into such few words.

Nope. Jack can't leave Daniel. Though I suppose there's always the risk that he might just grab Daniel and fly away. :) Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it!

Glorious. I love that Hammond KNOWS that Daniel is the humanizing touch Jack needs--commuting by Stargate, indeed. Your descriptions here are so lyrical, it's like flying along with Jack. And that last image, Daniel dreaming of falling but actually protected by his flying Jack, is so bittersweet and gorgeous.

Thank you!

Of course, Hammond knows! Doesn't everybody? :)

You know, I've never really read any wing!fic. It was all the rage just as I wasn't reading LOTR_RPS much anymore. But there are so many weird cracky story types that work much better in the sci fi context - mpreg being another one that leaps to mind.

I'm so pleased you liked it. I had that same kind of feeling imagining and writing this, so I'm glad it came through. Also, this was the result of a lot of scrapped ideas that *didn't* fit the mood. Might be fun to switch back to a Jack POV and try out some of the other thoughts.
