My notes:

This is everything. I love the way they come together here. So naturally, so inevitably. Real, adult affection, the angst kept to a realistic minimum considering how long they’ve been best friends.

My notes:

This is just SO quintessentially Daniel. Everything about this. In fact, I’m pretty sure this is exactly what would happen if Daniel found out anything about what happened on the Odyssey.

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

Then Scully shows Mulder archery, etc. This series is deliciously innuendo-heavy. The writers take turns exploring the different ‘lessons’ Mulder and Scully use as an excuse t... Read more
