Another Cam 1st P story. Cam/Sam/Vala friendship, spoiles for the Quest part two.
simple measures for complicated people
I watch her watching the screen go through a diagnostic for the tenth time. It's filtering through gate addresses, again. She's looking for something I think she's not going to accept isn't there.
I'm not used to this. I'm used to

I guess it's because we all know what's underneath it now, we all know it's a show and we let her have it. It's just that all the distance they've crammed into the couple of years they've known each other makes it that bit more complicated. SG-1, team motto: that bit more complicated. Should get it printed beneath the patches and yeah, General O'Neill didn't mention that one either.
loved that part much.

YES YES YES!!! That line just some up perfectly the change that happened in Vala's relationship with the team after MM. She was knocked down and they were all able to see what she hid. If, like me, you look into every single little thing you can tell that it was after MM that hers and Daniel's relationship changed ever so subtly. They still bickered and all but it was softer, Daniel was given a look into a Vala that he wasn't sure was there and saw her venerability. She's still tough and a survivor but she's also fragile. I also think Vala changed a bit after too, she let the team see more of her, b/c now she knew she didn't have to hid that side of herself anymore. And... I just realized how long this got to be. From one sentence-- you are evil! and dangerous for my brain! I love it. Hee! *huggled ( ... )

ITA on MM as changing her place in the team - before that, they were never sure which was real and which was her defense, but after that they all understood it was how she liked to be but it wasn't her, if that makes sense.
And Dominion really flagged up for me exactly how good Cam is at watching and noting team dynamics, it's only been since I saw it that I feel I've really had a way into his character. He gives a really subtle performance in it, just a look here or line here, but it gives a lot away.
