"Vala, can you pass the fruitcake, please?"

The former thief frowned at Sam and turned to Daniel with a raised eyebrow. He refrained a laugh, eyes full of mirth.

"This is a fruitcake, Vala," he explained, indicating said cake, before passing it to Sam.

"Oh, so this is a fruitcake now, is it?" She teased, eyes locked with him.

The rest of the team watched them share a long look, wondering how on Earth they managed to escalate the mood over a bloody cake. Thankfully, both their smirks soon grew into full blown laughter and no plates were broken tonight.
