The giant Jaffa grinned in delight, showing a rarely seen side of him. "I reminisced upon a trip outside of our village."
"Sorta like Boy Scouts?" Jack inquired.
"I am unfamiliar with that designation. The excursion was part of a mission designed to teach young ones – those who are able to be without a symbiot – to worship Apophis. I believe that in your years they are from nine to twelve years of age." Teal'c swelled with pride, certainly not at Apophis, but probably from the trip. "Many of my childhood friends accompanied me. The organization was called Jaffa Encouragement Groups – this is the closest translation into your language. At the time, we did not know better. Many of my friends came with me on our first excursion outside the village. We made fire, sang to Apophis, and had cul'kah-mah."
"Marshmallows, chocolate, and cookies… right?"
"Daniel? S'mores?"
"DanielJackson, what are marshmallows?"
"Uh, they're white, squishy, and they look like cylinders – short ones."
"Then, yes, you have the correct translation."
"That's great Teal'c! That combination of foods is what we call S'mores. I'd bet that Daniel, the colonel, and me would love to take you camping…. And we can have S'mores."
"That would be most appreciated MajorCarter." Teal'c bowed his head towards her. "That night, there was much laughing and rejoicing. We told many jokes. We sat in a circle and each Jaffa told off a joke if they knew one. Our dis'tra even dared to tell about Apophis. This is where I learned the Set joke. Even after we where sent off to sleep, we had a minor battle between the two campsites. It was the most fun I had ever had." Teal'c grinned contently. The rest of the group remembered the strange joke about Seth's warriors; apparently the joke was a common one among Jaffa. They had a strange sense of humor…
Jack was happy for Teal'c; it was the first time he'd even seen the big Jaffa smile like that. It must have been a good party. He clapped his hands together to get everyone out of the memory business for a bit. "Soooo…. I assume we're takin' it home?"
dis'tra – it's an actual Goa'uld word that means master; here I wanted to use it as leader or something like that.
sorry, that chapt was a little short.....
