The Circle of Life

For [livejournal.com profile] chattycatsmeow who requested

    Hmmm....Anytime after S3 - J/D first time, offworld, they get mistaken for newly weds, keep getting congratulated and the local Honchos put them up in the honeymoon suite. Jack figures, what the hey - they've got the suite, they might as well use it.


Title: The Circle of Life
Author: [livejournal.com profile] muck_a_luck, posting in [livejournal.com profile] brainofck
Pairing: Daniel Jackson/Jack O'Neill, Teal'c/Samantha Carter?
Rating: G
Summary: SG-1 runs across an unexpected local tradition. Must be a day ending in "y."
Words: 722
Disclaimer: If anybody is planning a script like this for SG-1, I'm certainly not going to claim any rights to it. However, I'd be delighted to work in a co-writing/consulting/first-reader/advisory-type capacity, with my fee to be negotiated at that time. :D
Archive rights: Absolutely none. My journals only. [livejournal.com profile] muck_a_luck and [livejournal.com profile] brainofck
The Matrix: Circle. The Matrix is located here.





"Congratulations!" said one of the girls to Jack. There were little bursts of giggles in the crowd.

"Good luck!" said another to Daniel, burbling over with laughter, naughty intent dancing in her eyes. "You, too," she added as an after thought to Sam.

Then the whole gaggle of them dashed away tittering.

When Jack yelled after them "WHAT?! HEY!!!" they just shrieked with giggles and ran faster, their disappearance through a gate in the hedge followed by the resounding slam of a house door.

Jack looked at Daniel. Daniel looked at Sam. Sam shrugged. Teal'c smiled a small, amused smile.

"What the heck is with these people?" Jack said. "They keep doin' that."

He was interrupted by a young man clearing his throat. He was approaching timidly. He also addressed Jack.

"May the Circle bless your union," he said, bowing to Jack somewhat formally. His eyes wandered over to Daniel, skittering over him then guiltily shifting back to Jack. "You are very fortunate." Turning to Daniel he said, "I wish you every happiness." He smiled nervously, then walked away quickly. Watching his retreat, Jack tipped his head on one side, taking off his cap and idly scratching at his scalp, eyes narrowing.

As he flexed the brim and resettled his hat on his head, he asked none of them in particular.

"Our union?"

"Um. Sir?" Sam interrupted. He turned to her and saw approaching from the other direction a truly ancient woman supported by a very old woman probably twenty years her junior. They were smiling happily and approaching across the plaza.

"Well, here they are! Hello! We are so happy to meet you! We have heard so much about your ceremony! It's been fifty years since strangers availed themselves of the Circle! Welcome! And may the Circle bless your unions!"

Teal'c bowed to them in his courtly manner.

"We are honored to provide so much joy by our arrival. But we are not certain..."

The older woman interrupted him, letting go the arm of her escort and brushing past him with a pat on his cheek to totter to Sam and take her by both hands.

"Such a beautiful bride! And such a handsome groom!" she said, casting a knowing glance back at Teal'c. "Good luck to you, my dearest. May the Circle bless your union."

At this last comment Daniel gripped Jack by the forearm to prevent him from making a rude yadda yadda type gesture.

Then the old woman turned to Daniel, smiling sweetly at his hand on Jack's arm.

"And you two! It has been twice fifty years since two men passed through the Circle together. How delighted I am to have lived to see this day! I have arranged special preparations in your apartments. Come, come!" she said, reaching out to take Daniel's hand and tugging him and Sam towards a large building on the square. "All the preparations have been made. You must have proper accommodations to consummate such auspicious nuptials."

Daniel fought the urge to close his eyes and rub at the headache forming in his sinuses. He was absolutely sure that a 95-year-old probable lesbian had just leered at him.

And was dragging him off to the honeymoon suite.

Where he would be consummating his marriage.

To Jack.

"Ma'am," he began, thinking he'd better explain this now.

"No, no, Daniel. Don't be modest, sweetheart. You are the worst at accepting gifts in the spirit they are given," Jack chastised him. "If you wonderful folks want to let us use your apartments, well, we would indeed be honored to accept your invitation," he said to the old lady, bending forward to kiss Daniel chastely on the cheek.

"Bu... Wha? No. Jack? I.. Um..." Daniel would have flailed his hands around a little, too, just to help get his point across, but Jack had taken the one he still had free and was holding it firmly.

The younger of the old women just laughed at him.

"He's so cute when he's flustered! Oh, Daniel, dearest, you have reeled in one sweet talker, you have!" And she took Jack's arm and hustled him off in the direction of the building, leaving Sam and Daniel to assist her companion, and Teal'c to saunter behind, with no one to witness the appraising glances he trailed over SamanthaCarter's slim figure.

Heh. Sweetheart Aw. I am such a sap for endearments, however they're said.

Where he would be consummating his marriage.

To Jack.

So do we play this one as surprise first time? Or established relationship hiding in plain sight?

oh definately surprise first time. I love Jack sneaking up on Daniel's ass!

sooooo, will you be adult contenting your journal? LOL

Absolutely not! My policy is that reading is precious and educational in all its forms. If you are old enough to want to read about a 30-something straight woman's take on gay sex, then by golly, you are welcome here. The other part of my policy is that minors should respect their family's and parents' rules and values. If their parents don't want them reading this kind of stuff, they should abide by their parents' rules.

It would be different if I were posting pictures or visual stuff. But I firmly believe that there is a massive difference between word pictures and photographs. Sexual maturity comes in stages. Learn about sex through words and parental guidance, move on to exploring your own sexuality through words and pictures, and finally have safe and fun sex, hopefully with a loving partner or partners.

That's the BrainofCK policy on readers under the age of majority.

Um. Not to rant at you, who were clearly LOL'ing. :D

What part of they've got the suite, they might as well use it. doesn't scream, "Let's see some hot man on man action," I ask you?

*sighs pointedly*

Oh, good Lord! What part of "drabble? or ficlet?" do you not understand?! I did not volunteer to write gigantic PWP porn sagas!!!! :D

[identity profile] starting-gate.livejournal.com 2007-11-30 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
It doesn't have to be "gigantic," sweetie. Even though we're talking about porn, size isn't everything. :)

And besides, didn't you want JO/JS/DJ by December 10? FIVE of them?! And I'm trying to write that damned sex toy prompt. AND shop MP3 players for Husband. Plus I'm SUPPOSED to do work for my Boss.

I want a treat.

*goes in search of cookies*

[identity profile] starting-gate.livejournal.com 2007-11-30 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Well, yes. Of course I want the sandwich list. \o/

I was simply being supportive of [livejournal.com profile] chattycatsmeow and politely pointing out there seemed to be something missing.

*gives you cookies, since you obviously need them*

Pssst! Write part two, delegate work, and buy husband sex toy, instead. :)

[identity profile] chattycatsmeow.livejournal.com 2007-11-30 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! Yes! Exactly! We must now have the Hawt Jack&Daniel Sexxins!!
