Holiday Party, SG-1 Style!

First of all, thank you to everyone who submitted prompts--yes, this is very fast turnaround, but I wanted to give people time before Christmas day to start writing.

Now that we have prompts, and they've been more or less organized (and wow to people who have done this before, and with more prompts), it's time to write!

You have a couple of different options:

1) Write comment fic and post it here.
2) Write longer fic and post a link to it here.

You should, in the subject line, indicate your pairing, prompt, and rating, like so: "Jack/Sara, technology, R."

There were a lot of single-character prompts, or prompts where there were a few characters specified, but without it being a pairing--these I'm assuming are open to any and all pairings, unless otherwise stated. I'm also assuming that any and all pairing prompts could be friendship fic instead. The muse goeth where it willeth, after all, and you never know when your smut scene is going to turn into a gen adventure fic that involves research of mythology and biology. /grumping

I'll hold this post open until New Year's Day.

You can direct questions to me here, so this post can be all sorts of fic goodness.

Onto the prompts!

General:

*waits with Jack*

Lovely. Jack takes care of his Daniel so nicely. But yikes! Poor Daniel is not well at all.

Fireplace!angst, huh? You are sly. ;-)

Hee! Thanks :)

(I've realized I seem to have them pouncing on each other a lot. Apparently I like the idea of them wrestling playfully. *coughs*)

Daniel is so mean! Later Sam will pounce on him when he doesn't expect it and make him kiss her properly. And maybe Jack will get to join in too.

YES! And Jack will be grumpy on the sofa, yelling "HEY! Are you guys kissing? Is there kissing going on without me? STOP IT!"

And Daniel will pull Sam into a closet, saying "Ignore him! We spent hours in the snow getting his ass a Christmas tree. We deserve KISSING."

That is such a sweet kiss between Sam and Daniel and this fic has the added bonus of dinosaurs! Dinosaurs make everything great, except for two mile runs in snow, but no matter because it ended with Sam and Daniel and a sweet, shy kiss underneath the mistletoe.

Hee! Dinosaurs DO make everything better - though I think Jack's foot might disagree with you.

Yay to the kiss working too! *squishes them*

thank you!

And finally Jack gets bored and levers himself off the couch and hobbles over to the closet and manages to get it open even though Sam is trying to hold onto it and eventually they decide to just let him play too.

Sam/Jack/Cam= apocafic-baking cookies
Oh yes, you heard me!

God, I love this promptathon.

Cutest mistletoe fic ever, I think. And why am I always trying to spell mistletoe with a 'w'?

snowy pine scented fluffage, nice:D

I don't, yours was pretty darn cute (though perhaps much, much hotter) too!

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks!

A "W"? Where? Like Mistletow like towing the missiles away? :) Jack wouldn't approve of that unless he was towing them away to be part of his secret stash.

Yeah. Mistletow. Hee.

Eh. Cute and Hot are not the same thing. I'm also amused by the idea of Sam and Daniel bound and gaged while Jack kidnaps them, making sure to stuff some extra mistletoe beside them. They'd be glaring, Jack would be cheerful. And later they'd make him pay...

Bwah!
That would be the evilest, funniest crack!fic. Hee!

They'd SO make him pay. But he might enjoy it anyway.

Excellent! I really loved the whole Sam-Ronan interaction.

Fun! Right down to the end. :^D

Very nice!

Fun and touching altogether. Thanks for a great start!

Oh, this is so lovely. The lights going on on cue is priceless. But I really love how Jack just knows her (of course). Beautiful.

Eee! Theyaresoadorable! *squishy love*

Oh nanda, so perfect and pretty and peaceful.

theyaredefinitelyOMGsoadorable!

*squishes them with you*

OMG YES.

That cheered me up. :)

"Attention, all passengers on Flight 2487 to Cairo. Departure time has been pushed further back..."

Daniel echoed the groans of the rest of the boarding area with a sigh and resisted checking his watch for the umpteenth time. He glanced over at Sam, curled up in the plastic chair next to him. "I don't need to comment on the irony, do I?"

"Uh-uh," she mumbled from within her fleece jacket.

"You don't suppose we could call..."

"Already thought of it, and no. They're - " she looked around the terminal crowded with weary, dull-eyed travelers - "out of town."

"Right."

Daniel resisted the urge to sigh again, stuffing his hands deeper in his pockets. It would figure that their first real getaway in a long time would get off to a rough start. Jack, of course, would say they'd gotten exactly what they wanted - a perfectly ordinary vacation experience.

He looked back at Sam, whose eyelids were losing the battle. She looked tired, but less bone-weary than when she'd stepped through the gate the day before. He'd thought, then, that maybe she'd prefer to stay close to the Springs and just do nothing for three weeks, but when her first words to him following the enthusiastic hug were, "Take me someplace warm," all panicked thoughts of how he'd get back the ticket money vanished.

Mitchell hadn't understood. "Egypt," he said, when Daniel offered to chaperone the whole team. "Jackson, you know that's not exactly a substitute for Maui, right?"

Daniel just shrugged.

Vala had found Cameron's ski trip plans much more interesting, having spent more than enough time on desert planets as Qetesh, Teal'c , as usual, intended to visit his son, and inviting anyone after that would have made for, as Mitchell put it, "serious style-cramping."

That, at least, he could agree with. He looked again at the blonde head bobbing next to him, still fighting. He smiled and reached across to gently push it down to his shoulder, letting his hand drift down once it was settled to smooth over her loose ponytail.

He remembered when she'd decided to let it grow; back from a bizarre trip that only Teal'c remembered, not yet thinking about Atlantis, or anything but going straight home and washing away the end of the Asgard. He'd found her in the bathroom, standing naked in front of the mirror. "Do you think I should let it grow out?" she asked without preamble. One hand was fingering a close-cut lock, the other resting on the counter.

He moved in behind her and let his hands settle on her hips. "Do you want to?"

"Maybe. I don't know, I feel like it's time for a change." Her eyes me his in the mirror. "You know?"

He shrugged. "Pretty happy where I am, actually." He tickled her belly lightly, prompting a jerk back into him and a smile.

"Can't keep up with me, can you," she teased.

"What, you think I should get contacts?"

She turned in his arms. "Nah. I kind of like this part." She reached up to gently remove his glasses, place them on the counter behind her, and wrap her arms around his neck...

A toddler's shriek brought him out of the memory and made Sam's head jerk up, startled. Daniel shifted to wrap his arm around her shoulders, gathering her back in to him. Strains of a hackneyed carol reached his ears through the din. "Maybe we should take 'opportunity for travel' out of the recruiting blurb."

Her answering smile was somewhat less sleepy. "Wouldn't feel the same without a little drama."

He brushed errant strands of hair behind her ear. "Thought you were looking for change."

"Mmm, I've thought about it."

"And?"

"I decided that change is all right," she said, slipping her arms around his waist, "as long as you're there when I come home."

Sam closed her eyes and snuggled into his side. The PA announced someone's gate change; the family seated across from them broke into yet another argument; the music turned into something high-pitched and peppy.

Daniel dropped a kiss on her forehead. She already knew he agreed.

This is so comfortable and nice. Ordinary, but sweet.

Ooh! OOH! So goooood! A lovely little ficlet, and it's my prompt. :D :D

A Sam/Daniel fic taking place while Sam is stationed in Atlantis. EXCELLENT! I love the idea of Daniel taking Sam to Egypt and showing her everything.

Daniel cracked one eye open warily. “Oh.” He mashed his face back into the pillow. “Why did I drink so much eggnog?”

“Too much eggnog explains the headache,” commented a hoarse voice from the other side of the bed. “But I’ve got another question.”

Daniel opened both eyes and rolled over, groaning involuntarily. He peered at Cam myopically. “You don’t remember last night?” he asked, dreading the answer.

“Hell, yes, I remember last night. A few of the details might be a little foggy, but I’m not about to forget.”

The two men exchanged a look that left Daniel feeling warm down to his toes, but Cam didn’t touch him and looked away, back up towards the ceiling, frowning.

“So, um, what’s the… is there a problem?”

“Yeah.” Cam pointed up. “How did that get there?”

Daniel squinted.

“Oh, glasses,” Cam said, retrieving them from the nightstand and passing them to Daniel.

Daniel put them on and looked up with no idea of what he was going to see. He stared. “Mistletoe?”

“Mistletoe,” Cam confirmed grimly.

“And obviously you didn’t put it there.”

“I did not.”

“So that leaves….”

“Sam, Teal’c and Vala.”

They exchanged a look. “Vala,” they agreed.

“So,” Daniel said slowly, “she snuck in here sometime during the party and hung mistletoe over your bed.”

“And as scary as that prospect is, with the whole question hangin’ in the air of what the hell she might have been planning, and I do not want to contemplate that with a hangover the size of Cheyenne Mountain,” Cam clutched at his head dramatically, “it’s not nearly as scary as the idea that she came back after the party, broke into my apartment, and hung that thing up there….”

“While we were sound asleep.” Daniel felt a stabbing pain behind his left eyeball, and his eyelid began to twitch.

Cam snorted. “Passed out, more like.”

They lay there, contemplating the mistletoe and the parameters of their problem. Cam’s hand found Daniel’s, and they clung to each other.

“Would she do that?” Cam asked plaintively.

“This is Vala we’re talking about,” Daniel reminded him. “Anything’s possible.”

The shrilling of Cam’s telephone made them both yelp, and when he held it up so they could read the caller ID, they both groaned. Cam cleared his throat and pushed the button for speaker phone. “Morning.”

“Good morning, darling. Did you boys sleep well? Is Daniel up yet, or is that a rude question?”

“Oh, we’re screwed,” Daniel said faintly.

“Well, I assumed, darling, but I wouldn’t want to pry.”

The telephone shattered quite satisfactorily when Cam hurled it against the wall.
