Why This Must Be Read: Niamaea wrote this charming story for sg1_ever_after. It gives us Sam and Daniel, sometime in the not-so-distant future, facing the prospect of a decommissioned SG-1 and Daniel’s compulsary retirement from going off-world. They know that within the next few years, the SGC will be going public and their lives will turn upside-down all over again; but what will they do until then?

Daniel’s enchanting solution is utterly, delightfully in character, as he proposes that he, Sam, and Teal’c take the time to really explore the one planet that they haven’t had the chance to truly experience. There’s warmth, and caring, and friendship, and a truly elegant tagline that promises a happy ending for the characters we love. What more could you want?
