Cassi laughed with the futility of trying to make Teal'c understand.
"You'll never make him understand" Daniel predicted from behind his book.
"Okay, look. It doesn't matter that it's not your name" she tried, but Teal'c only lifted his eyebrows.
"It's a NICKname! When I was young I couldn't pronounce Teal'c so I called you Tik! It just stuck"
"How can a word stick to anything? It has no substance" Teal'c replied.
"She means, it just became habit" Daniel offered.
"And this is considered a form of affection?" Teal'c asked.
"Yes!" Cassi cried in victory.
"Did I have a...nickname...for you, Cassi O'Neill?" he asked. Cassi thought about it for a moment.
"No" she said, "Mainly you just called me Cassi O'Neill" she answered.
"Would it not be polite for me to return your show of affection?" Teal'c asked.
"That defeats the point of a nickname" Cassi explained with a laugh of exasperation, "It should be spontaneous, it should mean something"
"I see" Teal'c said. Cassi laughed.
"I doubt it! But don't worry. You'll get it!"
Author's Note: This is all I have written so far. I will accept suggestions on a continuing story.
