Why This Must Be Read: Kiarasayre gives us Sam and Daniel on the cusp of S9, as they are about to go their separate ways: Sam to Area 51, and Daniel to Atlantis. The Wonder Twins share one last scientific mission together... and it's chock full of humor and characterization and reflection, together with some entertaining (and one very annoying!) original characters. This fic is a fitting tribute to the years that Sam and Daniel spent together, the wonderful friendship they share, and their marvelous synchronism. Simultaneously entertaining and bittersweet, Transitions is a most apt title for a very enjoyable story!
The claxons sound and Harriman sticks his head in. "You've got a go," he says, and that's all they need, they're up and on their feet and in the Gate Room within seconds. The Gate is still dialing, so Daniel takes the opportunity to lean down and readjust his sidearm holster.
Johnson rolls his eyes and mutters, "Civilians," and if he says that one more time -
But Daniel just gives the wall in front of him a deadpan, long-suffering Look and manages to finish without resorting to homicide.
The seventh chevron locks, and the wormhole engages. Sam looks at it for a long moment, as Daniel comes up to stand next to her.
"It's been a long ride, hasn't it," he says quietly.
She smiles at him, briefly. "Yeah. But fun."
"And dangerous."
"Definitely better than NASA."
"What, you don't like space suits?"
"Not enough quantum mechanics."
"Ah."
They smile at each other. Then Johnson says, "Are we going or what?"
Daniel's smile doesn't fade, but instead turns into a sort-of grimace. "I'm a civilian, so I wouldn't get court-martialed for shooting him, right?"
Sam considers this for a minute, then pats him on the shoulder. "Let's consider that Plan B."
"Right."
