HEEEY. I'm so sorry it took so long to get to this, I was out of the country for a little over a week. But I was excited to find this when I finally got back online! Thank you so, so much, this was fantastic! Judging from the comments, I take it you're not that into Daniel!Whump, but I really appreciate you accommodating my prompt. Loved the angle you went with. A Season 1/2 AU never would have crossed my mind but it worked out really well.
I AM SO RELIEVED. (And I hope your trip was awesome for whatever reason you took it.) I was trying not to be paranoid that you'd seen it & hated it by thinking that you hadn't seen it b/c of RL interfering.
Ha, oh, Anyone!Whump is hard for me to view/read/write, because I think silly things like "If Jack's leg is broken, he'll be in a cast for the next 3 or 4 episodes" or "Even after he heals, there might be arthritis where the bone knit for the rest of his life" or "Am I emotionally manipulating the audience with a cheap plot device?" or "That graphic explicit injury kink like in that JG Ballard novel is so not my kink."
After reaching the 1000-word minimum, I started to really enjoy writing the story, and am tempted to re-release for the Gen audience an expanded no-pairing version with Sam & Teal'c's scenes added, because I actually did work out the "science" & plot behind the rescue.
But anyway thank YOU for the prompts, because writing outside my comfort zone helps me to grow as an author. :D
Lol, no! I was afraid you might have thought something like that and I would have told you beforehand, but I didn't know who had my prompt xD The trip was amazing, thanks! I was working at an orphanage in Haiti for a few days.
And yeah, plot-wise, whump IS really silly and usually not very believable, but I still enjoy it for the "harmless" what-if scenario that it is :) I thank you for humoring me in this case, haha.
I think you should go for it, for sure. The story definitely has that feel about it that more can be pulled from it. I would love to read any elaborations you make, and I'm glad you enjoyed writing it! Thanks again for a great fill!

Mission reports during the DADT must've been AWKWARD.

I was afraid no one would get the "cr-ALP" joke, it was kinda dorky. BUT SO VERY JACK.
Feel free to suggest a prompt for my Jack/Daniel plotbunnies. :D

It turned out a lot less romantic than the one you wrote for me, but that's the difference between a Season 1 timeline vs. a post-SGU timeline.
[I canNOT type tonight LOL]
