SG-1 Gen Fic Day/Cam Alphabet Soup: E is for Exertion

[redbyrd_sgfic]

Mitchell's legs burned with fatigue and buckled as he tried to force them to move, but he was pushing himself up again, even before the physical therapist could say, "Let's try once more, Colonel." He'd always been pig-stubborn, as his granma used to say, but since the crash he'd found reserves of obdurate will that sometimes surprised even him

Nice! I really like the juxtaposition in scenes here-very effective.

[redbyrd_sgfic]

Thanks, I thought they went well together. I don't always feel like I have the best grasp of Cam, but certainly persistance is one of his defining traits!

Thanks! I really need to rewatch the last couple of seasons, as I still feel like my grasp of Cameron is a bit slippery. But it felt good to write something- I've been in other parts of my serial hobby rotation lately.

And now I have that old "Tub-thumping" song in my head XD

Ah, had to google that. Yes, though arguably Cam isn't doing this to himself (except in so far as he puts himself in harm's way).

Perfect dear - that is Cam right down to the ground!

[redbyrd_sgfic]

Thanks, sweetie!

It is certainly a serious mistake to underestimate our Cam!
