Season 8

Disclaimers: I don't own any of it emergency

A/N Thank you all for the wonderful reviews, I can't believe I got so many. Sorry about the mistake in the first chapter, all the Jake's have been changed to Jack(I think...) Anyway if you notice any more mistakes like that, please tell me

Slowly flipping through the packet Daniel had passed out to everyone at the briefing, Sam tried in vain to remember all the information in the lengthy packet. Apparently, the Rithomians, an advanced culture that SG-12 had encountered, had some very interesting customs, and Daniel didn't what anyone to offend them and cause an interplanetary incident. That part of the briefing was probably directed more at General O'Niell that anyone else.

Shaking herself out of her daydreams, Sam tried to focus on Daniel's lecture. He was explaining why everyone would be required to wear their civies to work, instead of their BDU's. It had to do with them thinking uniforms stifled people's individuality. Because of this, when they arrived tomorrow everyone was required to be out of uniform tomorrow. General O'Niell was gating to their homeworld today, and the Rithomians representative would come back with him tomorrow.

Turning her attention back to Daniel, Sam glanced over at General O'Niell and caught him staring at her. He was looking at her the same way he had been right after the time loop incident. When he realized she was aware of what he was doing, General O'Niell shifted in his seat and focused on Daniel. After trying to figure out what had just happened, Sam gave up and focused on Daniel's explanation of how the Rithomians culture was similar to that of the Ancient Greeks.

After finishing several of her lab experiments, Sam shut everything in her down for the night and headed for her on-base sleeping quarters. Cassie had left after they had finished watching a movie in the Womens Rec Room and she was staying at an old friends tonight, so Sam had no reason to go home. She had brought a duffel bag with all of the things she would need in the morning, since Daniel had told her about the required civies yesterday.

Finally reaching her room, Sam lay down and fell asleep within minutes.

Beep Beep Groaning loudly Sam reached over and turned her alarm clock off. She almost never woke up because of it; normally she was up and dressed before it went off. That made it even more annoying when she actually did wake up to that sound. Dragging herself out of bed, Sam stumbled outside and headed for the locker room, where she had left her duffel bag.

"What the heck is this," Sam exclaimed as she pulled clothes out of her bag. Instead of the comfortable pair of blue jeans and red sweater she had packed, there was a pair of faded hip huggers and a navy blue T-shirt that Sam guessed would fit her, but was going to be tighter than what she was used to. Turning the shirt over, Sam saw the word O'Niell written across the front, surrounded by light blue Hawaiian flowers.

Clenching the clothes in her hand, Sam thought about what she was going to do to Cassie when she got home. It was too late for her to go home and get another change of clothes, so Sam was stuck with these ones.
