I opened a file dated 2007 on my PC and found this rec, completely written out and ready to go. I needed to hunt for an alternate link, but hey, it took only 15 years to post... :)

Why This Must Be Read: This short, feel-good fic is an exercise in wishful thinking: wouldn't it have been nice if TPTB had taken advantage of Jack's fish-filled pond at the end of S8 to change a few more things?
Short, sweet, and to the point, this fic takes SG-1 home from their trip to Jack's cabin to discover that their journey to the past has had a few more repercussions than they originally thought. Put this one in the "if only!" file, and take it out to reread whenever you're particularly missing one spit-fire, Napoleonic Little Doc and one snarky, wry and intelligent Tok'ra.
During Daniel's examination, Daniel could sense Jack sidling closer and closer to where he sat on the gurney. Daniel dazedly answered the questions presented with one word responses and curt nods and accepted the gentle reprimands with a tight smile. He tracked the hand that patted his knee and both he and Jack furtively glanced around the room when the doctor left the room to fill his prescription.
"Jack," Daniel hissed.
"I know. Then again maybe I don't know," Jack whispered, moving even closer to where Daniel sat on the gurney. "Is this like those fish in my pond?"
"This is a bit more complex than fish, isn't it?"
