Note: This was written for a challenge issued to me by Checkmate. These were the requirements: 300 words, stargate sg-1 J/D. It must also include a rainstorm, lost floppy disk and a mahogany door. The phrase ‘I think, therefore I am’ also had to be used. *Bonus points if the line is in Greek. *Guess what Trica..I got it into Greek..I get bonus points, wahoo, lol* Anyway, I hope ya’ll enjoy the story. Rated: PG-13. No warnings or spoilers. For any season.
Thinking
Lighting streaked through the dark sky peppering it with brief yellow cracks. Sighing Daniel looked up from the artifact brought back by Sg-7. He hated the rain, it was too wet. Starring out the window he watched the water being flung about by the wind. Resisting the urge to look at the clock he returned to the artifact.
“This doesn’t make sense. There shouldn’t be any Greek on a Mayan artifact.” Daniel was so focused on what he was doing he didn’t hear the front door shut or the heavy steps running up the stairs. Not that he would have been able to in the first place with the thick mahogany door to the study shut.
The door creaked as Jack gently pushed it open, not wanting to disturb the rooms occupant quite yet. “You better have eaten today, Daniel.” Jack said in his Colonel voice. He got a perverse pleasure from his lover’s yelp of surprise. Jack had spoken just before a deafening crack of thunder, talk about perfect timing.
“Gawd Jack, don’t do that. I think I ate.”
Jack raised an eyebrow. “You think?”
Daniel sighed. “Yes. I found the floppy disk I lost last week while making a sandwich. Don’t remember if I actually ate it or not.”
Jack rolled his eyes. Daniel’d only looked up from his work once. Walking behind him Jack pointed out one phrase. “What’s that mean?”
Daniel starred at the phrase for several seconds. It was huge Greek words: Cogito Ergo Sum. “It means... I think therefore I am.”
Jack just shook his head. He hadn’t actually wanted to know. Daniel finally turned around and looked at Jack. “I think I’m done thinking. Got something else I could do?”
Smiling Jack kissed Daniel. “I think I could come up with something.”
The End
