Why This Must Be Read: This hilarious fic features Jack and Daniel in a Scrabble death match. They're playing geek rules - any word in any language - and guess who's winning?
There's a very little bit of fanon here, but Jack and Daniel are entirely, delightfully in character, from the snarking to the betting to the quirky friendship. If you're looking for a fic that's just plain fun, then Scrabble is definitely the fic for you.
“What’re we playing for?” Jack asked as he selected his own pieces.
“Highest score, of course.”
“That’s no fun,” Jack challenged. He frowned, thinking hard. “How about… if I win, you treat me to a hockey game, with all the trimmings. And if you win…”
“You take Teal’c and me to a museum,” Daniel finished. “And we talk about history and culture. All day.”
Jack winced. “Ouch. Tough stakes, Dr. Jackson.” He pondered briefly. “It’s a deal.”
They tossed random tiles to see who would play first, and Daniel laid out the first word.
O’Neill stared at it. “What language is that?”
“Tollan. Geek rules, remember?”
Jack peeled off the top sheet on the pad where Felger had been keeping score. He turned the sheet over and wrote down Daniel’s word with the points next to it. Then he drew a line down the middle of the next sheet and wrote his name and Daniel’s across the top, penciling in Daniel’s score.
“Don’t you trust me, Jack?”
The colonel looked into those innocent blue eyes.
“About as far as I can throw you.”
“Oh, c’mon! We’ve been to hell together. Literally. We’ve died together. I watch your back; you watch mine. We’re teammates, best friends, and you still don’t trust me?”
Jack rolled a slow, suspicious gaze up to the man across the table. “Not when it comes to high stakes betting. My turn.”
