Why This Must Be Read: Penknife treats us to a marvelous episode tag to Hathor, as Sam and Daniel eat takeout and discuss the ramifications of what happened during Hathor's rampage through the SGC.
There is self-deprecating humor, and almost painful honesty, and wonderful characterization. The twist in perception here is perfectly Daniel, especially with the parallels he draws. And Sam is the perfect friend - no sugarcoating the situation, but just being there, with the promise that they'll both be there for each other in the future.
No episode tag to Hathor could ever be a really happy one, but Penknife gets this one just right.
"How was your day?"
Daniel busied himself re-wrapping his burrito. "Is that an actual question, or are we being macho as usual?"
"Women in the Air Force get a special dispensation from being macho," Sam said seriously. "10 U.S.C. 775."
Daniel glanced up, looking like he half-believed her. "Really?"
"No. I think that's something about uniform issue."
"This is military humor?"
"Would you prefer physics humor? Because those are really the two kinds I've got."
