Why This Must Be Read: In honor of Father's Day and Teal'c, who was always amazingly gentle with children and gave up the chance to mentor his own for the sake of his son's future...

It's early S1, before the team knows that Ry'ac even exists, and Jack takes Teal'c to the local mall where a glimpse of a karate class brings up painfully wistful memories. Brief, poignant, and stoic - in short, perfectly Teal'c.

Why This Must Be Read: My first reaction on reading this was, "Break my heart, why don't you?"

Jack's Ancient gene triggers a certain... option on the Quantum Mirror, and he gets too much of an eyeful at what-might-have-been. Or what-is-happening-elsewhere, really.

Teal'c and Jack friendship for the absolute win and Jack's intense grief both make this absorbing, wrenching, and a must-read.


The mirror got shunted off to a remote SGC science department storeroom, safely contained, and started gathering dust. Until the night Jack couldn’t sleep.

Why This Must Be Read: This glorious, intense story is long. And incredibly teamy. Full of Jack and Daniel friendship, and scientific puzzles, and Teal'c sheer stubbornness, and Sam doing her best (and beyond) for her team, and Daniel taking his usual flying leaps of logic, and courage, and drama...

I love each and every one of them here. Bill Lee shines, Janet has a great cameo, and the comfort of the final scene is an absolute joy. Make sure you've got the time to read this all in one sitting, because you won't be able to stop!

Why This Must Be Read: I love early S1 Teal'c, when our favorite Jaffa is still trying to come to grips with the bizarre world and culture of the Tau'ri. And I love Jack fulfilling his promise to show Teal'c "our world." So this story, where a trip to a hockey game ends in disaster and Teal'c hasn't yet learned to cope with emergencies outside the SGC, is definitely a winner! Add some extra teamy goodness and classic Teal'c pwnage at the end of the fic for an extra treat. :)

Why This Must Be Read: In the wake of Unending, Teal'c has fifty years' worth of memories and loss that he can't share with anyone. Who else can offer therapy better than Jack O'Neill?

I love their understanding of one another and Jack's unique brand of comfort and peace at a time that Teal'c so badly needs it. Beautifully and powerfully done.


Jack glanced over at Teal'c. It was weird, seeing him aged, not just in body with the white at his temples and the fine lines around his eyes, but there was something else, too. An intangible bow to his back. A weight that even Bra'tac had never shown.

“It is odd,” Teal’c says at last, “to be presented with so many choices.”

There's humor, friendship, angst, snappy banter, superb characterization... All the hallmarks of Sid fics. Bittersweet in the circumstances, and well worth reading them all.

Why This Must Be Read: In the wake of Bane, Daniel insists that he and Jack do something to help Teal'c.

It's fun to see the different perspectives play here: Daniel's dogged determination to talk, Jack's automatic preference for anything other than talking, and the way that both methods mesh beautifully together and succeed.

A very nice friendship fic in classic SG-1 style!

Why This Must Be Read: When Daniel leaps to Teal'c's defense in a fraught situation - without noticing that he might need a little defense of his own - Teal'c is left wondering how to deal with this particular Tau'ri. Jack's vague advice might not help very much, either.

I love very early S1 fic, particularly from Teal'c's POV. This is an excellent look at the very beginnings of team: their support of one another, acceptance of differences, and bonding together against outside menaces. An intelligent read, as Random's stories always are!


He was unsure what to make of the fact that a Tau'ri, a scholar, a man with more honor than sense it seemed, would act as his defender. It was...unsettling. It was also--extraordinary. And it seemed it was...Daniel.

Why This Must Be Read: Here is some nice angsty introspective from Jack in S8, mourning the automatic loss of closeness that his promotion and loss of his team entails. He considers the new distance that exists with Teal'c, with Daniel, with Sam... and, with perfect Jack headspace, decides that the sacrifice is worth it.

Add stellar Teal'c and Jack interaction and an extra dash of poignancy, and you've got a real keeper.

Why This Must Be Read: This is a short but powerful piece of Teal'c's thoughts and courage during Tangent, while he and Jack are adrift. This says so much about both Jack and Teal'c: their friendship, their bond, what Teal'c has absorbed from Jack and the support they can offer one another. Intelligent and perfectly Teal'c.


Teal'c thinks of the days when his friend raged against death even as Teal'c tried to face it with honour and dignity. He is not sure how to interpret the fact that he now finds more honour in resistance.

A couple of phone calls and Teal'c and Daniel join her in mysteriously choosing blue BDUs on the one day they really should wear green. The whole team gets an entire day of watching the Colonel's hands twitch every time they're in pinching distance.

Faces and bodies were indistinct, but Carter was warm next to Jack and Daniel was lethargically content across from him and Teal’c was stoically happy catty-corner to him, so Jack didn’t need to see his team to know they were good.

Why This Must Be Read: I stumbled across an old bookmark of three adorable Teal'c icon-based ficlets by the marvelous Kellifer. It's always a pleasure to rediscover hidden gems!

From the humor of a wasted Jack and Teal'c stumbling into Daniel's house to a gorgeous Sam and Teal'c friendship scene to a heartbreaking sketch of Teal'c's POV of that wordless moment from Lost City, these three ficlets are a delight. Too short and diverse to excerpt, so go read and enjoy!

This is beautiful and wonderfully real, as Penknife explores the repercussions of Teal'c's torture and the way the team -- and especially Jack -- help him work his way back to normal.

Gorgeous. Powerful. Perfectly Jack, and indubitably Teal'c.

Hammond. Ferretti. Superb Jack and Teal'c interaction. No one can offer comfort, but they can help him reach for acceptance. This is powerful, perfectly Jack, and just plain good.


What was left of his anger is gone now, defeated by logic and truth.  Grief is harder to bear, but easier to hide.  He pushes it away, puts on his colonel face and carries on.
