Why This Must Be Read: Pellucid offers us a poignant glimpse into the strains and tensions that Janet experiences on a regular basis. Teams delayed. Teams missing. Trying to keep things normal and routine in her everyday life with Cassie, even as she wonders if her friends and colleagues are ever going to come limping back through the Stargate.

Wonderful team bonding with Janet and Cassie, with an extra dollop of Janet and Daniel friendship for good measure - this fic is a marvelous tribute to the Little Doc, who must always wait and watch... and hope.


Janet keeps an up to date mission schedule on the lower left-hand corner of her desk for easy reference. She never stacks anything else on top of it. At the beginning of each shift she memorizes the scheduled arrival times of all the teams, anticipates their returns, knows the moment anyone is overdue.

If the knot of dread tightens in her stomach more quickly when the delayed team is SG-1, she tries not to notice.

"Wasn't SG-1 due in a bit ago?" a passing nurse asks her.

"I think so," Janet replies neutrally. One hour and twelve minutes ago, she thinks. "They must have gotten held up."

"Hopefully nothing to be worried about," her colleague says.

"I'm sure it's nothing." Janet forces a smile. One hour and thirteen minutes.
