Why This Must Be Read: Vala hopes Teal'c can explain these baffling, lucky Tau'ri that seem to stumble from crisis to triumph and back again.
Teal'c is not quite sure that he can, even after all these years.
Lovely character voices, sharp insight, and an excellent read!
"It is my experience that the Tau'ri may seem to be of little consequence when they are in fact very resourceful."
"Oh, I'm not saying they aren't. Yes, yes, we all know what they've done. Stories have been told, songs have been sung. Defeating the Goa'uld, vanquishing the Replicators, repeatedly finding the fun little items I borrow." She winks and grins widely. "I always plan to give them back. Honestly."
When he doesn't return her smile, she frowns slightly, but winks again. "No, I'm not suggesting they're incapable. But don't you just sometimes wonder if they're a little bit – stupid?" Turning to face the basket, she throws the ball. It misses, but he has seen worse first attempts.
Many times, Teal'c wants to say. It does not help that they have the baffling habit of pointing out their own inadequacies. How many times has O'Neill said, 'call me stupid', or 'I may be missing the point'?
"I didn't picture them this way. But being here – it just seems as though they wander from place to place, making a mess, but somehow – how? – they always seem to work it out. Not because they're thinking. Just because – is it luck?" She throws her hands up. "And if it is – how fair is that?"
