notes: I was reading a stargate sg1 sam/jack fic the other day.. ("Rockets And Shooting Stars" by Ruth M King - which I have read before.. but its a great fic) and in part of that... sam makes a comment about how it doesnt seem right that dorothy has to leave the scarecrow.. and POW.

I had Scarecrow doing some rather... un-scarecrow like things to dorothy. cough but anyways.. ever since I've been wanting to write Dorothy/Scarecrow fic. So I wrote an angsty little drabble.
