Why the Tau'ri like doors

Jacob Carter walked down the crystal tunnel that lead to Martouf and Landash's quarters. He wanted to ask the younger Tok'ra if he had seen his daughter. Sam was visiting the Tok'ra as part of an exchange of technologies and information. Next month he would be going to the SGC, though chances were Martouf would be going with him. The council did not think that sending a Tau'ri host to the SGC was really in keeping with the spirit of the exchange.

Jacob's symbiote enhanced hearing picked up sounds coming from his destination. Good, he thought to himself, at least he wouldn't have to hunt for Martouf. He was not ready for the sight that greeted him.

Martouf was standing half naked in his quarters; the woman in his arms was in a similar state of undress. They both turned and Jacob realised that the woman was Sam. As Martouf realised who was at the door his hands dropped to his side. Jacob did not want to know what those hands had been doing especially when they had been doing it on /his/ daughter!

Selmak sensed his hosts growing anger and took control quickly"Martouf, Lantash if you two value your lives you will run now. Jacob is currently contemplating several methods of torture that rival what the System Lords could do to you"

Martouf hesitated and Selmak decided he needed a little push. He was quite fond of both them and they were good friends. He really did not want them to go through what Jacob was currently planning for the men who had dared to touch his daughter. It would make Netu look like a walk in the park

"Martouf, when Jacob gets his hands on you he's planning to castrate you in the most slow and painful manor he can, and I doubt even Lantash can fix that! And Lantash you don't even want to know what he has planned for you!"

That seemed to be enough encouragement to get the two of them out of the room as fast as they could move; clearly they liked making love to Samantha and didn't want to be deprived of that ability and they certainly didn't want to know what else Jacob's twisted mind had planned for his daughter's lovers.

Samantha had taken advantage of Selmak's little speech to put her shirt back on. "Thank you Selmak."

"You are welcome Samantha. I am happy for you and I am sure Jacob will be too, once he calms down a bit and has a little talk with Martouf and Lantash. Don't worry I will ensure he does not permanently injure them."

"Thanks and now do you see why we Tau'ri like doors? They stop people walking in on things they would rather not see."

Selmak smiled and then dipped his head as Jacob re-emerged. He shot Sam a look that promised they would be talking about this very soon and she had a serious amount of explaining to do. Then he stormed out the door

Sam could hear his voice as ran after he lovers. "Martouf! Lantash! Get back here you cowards! What the hell do you think you're doing with my daughter! I'm going to make anything you've been through with the Goa'uld look like paradise! I'll make sure you never…" He moved beyond the range of her hearing.

Sam left Martouf's quarters and was met at the next intersection by Korra and Garshaw"May I ask why Jacob is currently threatening Martouf with grievous bodily harm and threatening to do things to Lantash that I do not believe are actually possible?Garshaw asked, with her enhanced hearing she could still hear Jacob's threats from four corridors away.

"I think it would be entertaining to watch Jacob rip Lantash out of his host, tie him in a knot and then stick him up Martouf's ass."Korra said

"Dad didn't know about us been together and then her walked in on us just now." Sam let the two Tok'ra fill in the blanks. "If it's any consolation Selmak say's he'll stop dad causing any permanent damage."

"I'm not sure even Selmak will be able to do that. Jacob looked as if nothing short of a staff blast would stop him," Garshaw said

"I'd say more like two or three blasts"Korra said and them sighed, "well it's their own fault I told them they should have told Jacob, but neither of them would listen." He turned to Sam. "I believe you wished to see our labs, since Martouf and Lantash will most likely be in hiding for some time, now seems as good a time as any." Sam followed Korra as he showed her the way to the labs.

Jacob shouldn't be so hypocritical. Yosuf said to her symbiote

What do you mean?

Well I doubt he's told Samantha about what he and Selmak have been doing with us in their spare time

True, but I think it's an old fashioned Tau'ri custom to ask the father's permission before you mate with his daughter. And Jacob is old fashioned

Not in everything Yosef said reminding her symbiote of some of Jacob's more innovative ideas from the night before. Well it's too late for asking now; do you think Jacob will leave them alive?

I know Selmak very well, he'll stop Jacob before he does either of them any permanent harm.

There is a lot of pain before you reach permanent injury and I suspect that they are going to enjoy it all before Jacob is done with them!

Garshaw laughed as she returned to the duties that had been interrupted when she'd seen a half naked Martouf run past her, pursued a few moments later by Jacob who had been yelling threats in several languages.
