Sam's Thoughts

Elvish translations – also if a sentence in elvish is too long I'll just put it in Bold meaning to is in elvish not common.

Selmac speaking

Last chapter

She sat behind him and placed the baby in his lap before wrapping her arms around both of them.

Sam lent her head into his back and closed her eyes, hoping for a miracle. But as she was behind him she didn't see his eyes return to focus and his eyes turn to the child on his lap.

"I never saw you as the type to have kids."

He felt Sam's head shoot up from its place on his back at thee sound of his voice.

"Dad?" she moved around so that she was looking into his eyes. Then she burst into tears.

"When do you plan to return to Middle Earth," Jacob asked his daughter as they sat together in Sam's room. It had been an hour since Jacob had 'woken up' and they had spent the time talking about the last couple of years, mainly with Sam repeat what she had said over the last couple of hours, this time with her dad commenting along the way.

"I'm not sure, I want to visit Mark before I leave just so he knows I'm still alive and Jack said they kept some of my stuff so I'll go through that and see if I want to keep any of it. Plus I have to get permission to stay off world, but I think that General Hammond will help me out there."

"Yes I'm sure he will, you know I would love to come and see where your living, and meet some of your friends."

"And I would love you to come to Eryn Lasgalen, and Gondor. There are so many places I'm sure you would love but time is the problem. Do you think you could convince the Tok'ra council to let you come with us?"

"I will talk to them, Major Carter, I am sure that I will be able to convince them to let your father spend some more time with you." Selmac said taking over, "and I thank you Major Carter for bringing your father back to us."

"My pleasure Selmac."

"Now where's this husband of yours?" Jacob asked.

"He's probably with Daniel, Jack and Lúthien, my other daughter."

"Three children? You have been busy haven't you?"

Sam glared at him before moving over to Túrelio, who was starting to wake up again.

"Alright, give me a couple of minutes to feed these two then we'll go and find Legolas."

Fifteen minutes later they made their way to the mess hall, where they had been told they could find Jack and Legolas.

They arrived just in time to see Lúthien throw up the jelly that Jack had been feeding her, all over the colonel's lap.

"Jack! What did I tell you about giving her sweets?" Sam snapped as she moved over to comfort her daughter who was very confused, having never vomited before, being an elf.

"She only had one bowl."

"I do believe it was two and a half, O'Neill." Teal'c said from across the table.

"Teal'c we really need to work on your lying skills." Jack complained.

Sam continued to glare at Jack as she cleaned off the small traces of sick, from her daughters' skirt, most had gone into Jack's lap much to Sam's delight.

"Are you trying to make my granddaughter ill, Colonel?" Jacob asked from behind him.

Most of the people who were in the room only knew Jacob as Selmac, as it had been awhile since any of them had heard Jacob talk with out the Tok'ra tone to his voice.

"Jacob?"

When the ex-general nodded, everyone started to crowd around him, welcoming him back.

Sam took her daughter's hand and moved her back over to Legolas, who was watching the group welcome Jacob back.

"I'm guessing that is your father," Legolas said.

"Yes, come over and meet him."

They moved over to the group of people around Jacob, they all moved so that Sam and Legolas had a free path to Jacob.

"So this is the man whose married my little girl is it?"

"Um dad, he's not a man." Sam said.

Jacob looked between them, shocked.

"Well he may have long hair Sam but I don't think he's a woman, and the fact that you have kids sort of confuses the equation too."

Jack sniggered behind them.

"No Dad I mean he's an elf, where he comes from a man is a human not a male."

"An elf, like Santa's little helpers?"

At this comment Jack burst into hysterics.

Sam when to reply but Legolas beat her to it, "Sam I really don't think it matters right now, I am pleased to meet you sir. I am Prince Legolas of Eryn Lasgalen, I apologise that I wasn't able to ask you permission for your daughters hand but at the time it seemed as though she was going to be on Middle Earth for awhile."

"That's quite alright," he turned back to Sam, "A Prince? Sam I didn't think you would be the type to live in a Palace!"

"Yes well it was rather difficult at first, especially considering that the King hates me. But we spend most of our time in Gondor so it's not much of a problem. ButI suppose even there we are still in court a lot, most of are friends are Kings or Queens, Lords or Ladies."

"He doesn't hate you… he just doesn't like that your mortal." Legolas said.

"Yeah but that isn't going to change anytime soon, As long as you don't die of grief we'll be fine."

"Grief?!"

"Long story and for another time. But right now I need to finish up with the paperwork for me to leave so why don't you two go back to my room and get acquainted." She said to Legolas and Jacob before leaving the room.

A/N sorry this has taken so long I will try to update more often. Any Ideas are very well come and thanks to everyone who reviewed.
