AN: This section was the original "Drawing Straws", but after I finished writing it, I realized how much more fun it would be to do the same scene from Sam's perspective, and then write one for Daniel and another for Teal'c, so it got shelved. I found it yesterday, and I still love it, so I decided to just tack it on the end. Plus, I think Jack deserves some sympathy.

She's on my six. Because she's always ready to protect me.

"Sir, is there anything I can do?"

God Major, don't make this any harder.

"About what?"

Please Carter, for once in your life give up on a lost cause.

"Well, with all due respect you haven't been acting like yourself lately."

Damn it Sam! Of all the times to lose your telepathy.

"No Carter, I haven't been acting like myself since I met you. Now I'm acting like myself."

Oh, I wish I was dead. No, she should be able to kill me.

She should at least get that.

AN: And hey, inadvertantly, I have written my first drabble. Should I have left it on the shelf?
