Ironically enough, with this particular fic, knowing your attitude toward Sam is what makes the story work. I know you think she'd hand him his balls on a platter, which is why I can read this and find it wrenching.
If it were an earnest attempt at characterization by an author who had already established a certain level with cluelessness, I might well be screaming bloody murder.
I have to say, for a moment I could see it. Yes, I think Sam would kick the ass of anyone who tried to lay a hand on her. Except possibly if her relationship with Jack became just that twisted. I guess this is a cautionary tale under the heading of "It Can Happen to Anyone."
Me either. I just can't see Jack ever becoming abusive. The series suggests that he's actually a pretty gentle person in several places. I don't really get people who sincerely believe that he could really deliberately hurt someone he loves like that.

Even so, I find it much more believable that Jack would do this than Pete.
But that's just me.

I'm not sure I can see it. I don't think Jack could ever hurt her like that. And I don't think Sam would let him.
