Author: Stexgirl2000

Rating: PG-13

Pairing: Daniel/Gate (I kid you not.)

Spoilers: None

Disclaimer: Of course I don't own Stargate:SG1 or the characters or any of it. And if you think I'm making a profit off of this, you've GOT to be insane. Ha.

Author's Note: Not beta'd, except for the spell checker. I'm blaming this on Nostalgia's comment that the one true paring of Stargate:SG1 is Daniel and the Stargate and a sugar rush. Also, I wrote this with tongue firmly in cheek. Really.

Of Gates and True Love

Every time the Kawhoosh came through, he was sure his heart was going to stop or he was going to come. In a split second, the gate was both phallic and womb-like and it turned Daniel on every time.

It was beautiful, his stargate.

He couldn't help but think of it as "his" gate. It was a strange mistress this wormhole. The ultimate lover with infinite possibilities. It was the opening that led into womb of the universe. Each time Daniel stepped through it, he felt, in what he knew was warped and strange way, as if he was penetrating the cosmos.

Yeah, he was the penis that gets sucked into the vaginal canal of universe. Jesus, Freud would have a field day with him.

Or was it that he became a sort of cosmic sperm? Visions of the Sperm Scene from that Woody Allen movie (he could never remember the name of the movie, but the images of grown men in sperm suits flashed before his eyes--that and the whole thing with Gene Wilder and the sheep) plagued him for a year or so before he moved on to some other metaphor.

In a few seconds, he, Daniel Jackson, would be penetrating his rounded wormhole love, guiding himself in, acquiring the target, diving into the ring...

Daniel cut the thought off.

He could go on with the purple prose about "entering" and "thrusting" himself through the gate. Which would lead to a hard-on that he did NOT want to explain to his teammates.

As Sam and Teal'c went through, Daniel paused at the great silver expanse and prepared himself. It was better than sex, going through the wormhole.

And it would take him dying again to give up the release of going through the hole.

He heard Jack's harrummph of annoyance. "Daniel, if you're finished contemplating the gate, step through the damn thing so we can get going, will ya?"

Not bothering to look back, Daniel smiled, took a deep breath and entered the wormhole.
