Why This Must Be Read: Look at that! I found a Redbyrd fic I hadn't recced yet! :)
I adore a good outside POV fic, and this one is just delightful: Jack's secretary at Homeworld Security, dealing with a general quite unlike any other.Toss in some interactions with Paul Davis (promoted!) and Daniel, sit back, and watch the reaction! At least this one made it past her first week...
"Daniel!" Lt. Colonel Davis turned around and smiled with real pleasure, holding out a hand to the newcomer. "It's great to see you."
"Hi, Paul. You're looking good," the man shook Davis' hand. "How's Jack?"
"I'm taking bets on whether he shoots the Joint Chiefs or drives them insane first," Davis said drolly.
Devereaux realized with a faint shock that the newcomer had called the general by his first name. She'd never heard anyone else do that. Davis was turning to her, "Daniel, this is Sergeant Lisa Devereaux. Devereaux, Dr. Daniel Jackson."
Devereaux shook the hand hand he held out politely, "Pleased to meet you, sir."
"Likewise," Jackson said. "I was hoping to catch Jackā¦"
"I'm sorry--" Devereaux began, just as Davis said, "Go in."
