The Unending Story

Written by WolfenM
Rating: Teen and up

Stories of life aboard the Odyssey while SG-1 and General Landry were stuck in the time-dilation bubble of the episode “Unending”.

My notes:

A 3-part series that starts by following Daniel and Vala during “that scene” in Unending in part 1 (A Love-Hate Thing), then showing the rest of the team observing the changes in D/V’s relationship in part 2 (Cats, Candles, and Confessions), culminating in the meatiest part of this series (part 3 – I...

One Step at a Time

Written by besully
Rating: Teen and up

A series of scenes starting immediately after 10.07 Counterstrike and ending after 10.20 Unending, detailing the progression of Daniel and Vala’s relationship.

All Vala wanted was to conquer the challenge Daniel had unwittingly presented. Once she had her victory, she’d drop it and Daniel wasn’t sure he could survive that.

My notes:

Told from Daniel’s perspective, a small behind the scenes look at Daniel and Vala’s relationship as it evolved after Counterstrike onward. I love the introspective yet cautious way Daniel navigates his need to be around Vala without challenging his comfort zone or confronting his feelings too directly. He’... Read more

He looks at her then, really looks at her, and she knows he is seeing all the cracks in her, all the places she is broken and doesn’t quite fit together anymore, all the things she tries to hide . . . Funny how, now that she starts to see them, the cracks in him look a lot like the cracks in her.

They’ve both been through so much. The question is, will it bring them together or irrevocably push them apart?

Break the Lock

Daniel and Vala learn how to get along. Be friends, even. They insist that’s all there is to it. They’re wrong.

My notes:

A wonderful slow burn that shows Daniel and Vala starting to spend more down time together after a shift in their dynamic has led to a bit of unrest between them. Vala has been demonstrating a genuine interest in Daniel’s archaeological passions for some time, and while that allows them to work together more seamlessl... Read more

Judge of Character

Written by DesertKactus
Rating: Teen and up

General Hammond has always believe himself to be a good judge of character, which is why, after an alien space pirate hijacked the Prometheus, he decides to offer the eccentric space pirate a chance to join the SGC, using Daniel Jackson as an incentive to persuade her. He also interested to see how things play out between her and a certain archeologist.

Smidge of J/S.

My notes:

Really well-paced and has excellent mission storylines. I love the premise of Vala being drawn into the fold right after Prometheus Unbound by Hammond. I always thought we never got to see enough of Vala and the way she so seamlessly integrated into SG-1. I love how this slight venture into AU territory makes the beginning... Read more
