SUBJECT: Um…Something important!

Carter,

You know this is getting boring too! Maybe we should spice it up for the next hour, I'll ask you 5 questions and you answer them truthfully and visa versa. Since I decided upon this game and ignored your hint, I'm going to start!

1. Did you have a teddy bear growing up?
2. Did you know half the scientists have crushes on you?
3. Why BLUE Jell-o and not RED?
4. Is Daniel annoying to you as well when he gets excited or is it just me?
5. Am I annoying you?

Remember answer truthfully!

Jack

Sam had to laugh at Jack's initiative, at least it was more interesting than the current report she was writing up for SG1. She was being asked to choose the newest member to the ultimate off-world team and she was not finding her choices very appealing to say the least.

After throwing the last file she could stand on the already high pile of rejected Air Force personnel Sam decided it was time to answer Jack, he'd been waiting half an hour already, time to put him out of his misery.

"So what was the first question again? Ah yes, teddy bears" Sam smiled again after re reading the questions and deciding upon how to answer them.

Ok, I'll play along with your little game, only because otherwise I'm just going to reject the next 10 applicants for the position in the team.

1. Yes I had a teddy bear
2. They do? Here I thought it was because of you!
3. Blue Jell-o just has more 'zing' to it than red, besides it tastes like sweet bubblegum!
4. Daniel is only annoying when his drunk, so I guess that ones just you sir
5. You were

Ok now my turn…

1. Why do you constantly have to downgrade Daniel?
2. Why do you need every member of personnel scared of you?
3. Who is your favorite scientist on base?
4. Why didn't you leave me behind that shield on the mother ship a few years back?
5. Do you miss Jonas?

Still on for lunch? It's 1317

Sam

Sam re read the email before sending it, hoping the questions weren't too corny. 'Why did I have to install the email program? Things were a lot less confusing, well no that's not true but at least it was easier to avoid the point if no one could access my lab!' Sam reached once more for the personnel files, only grabbing the rejected pile and a permanent marker.

"Nope can't hire him, too big of horns! Can't hire him either, don't like moustaches! Oh what a pity I don't like guys with black eyes!" Sam mumbled as she started drawing over the faces of the men and women she was rejecting. 'Damnit! I'm becoming worse than Jack!'

Sam released the files letting them drop to the floor while she waited for Jack's reply. Minutes passed, slowly, very slowly. "Ah come on Jack! How long does it take to answer one bloody email!" Sam grumbled to her empty lab, startled slightly with the sudden beeping from her computer, "That's better!" Sam smiled clicking 'open'.

Carter,

Sorry, briefing with SG15 ran over 5mins, how long does it take to tell me where they are going and for what reason! They weren't even taking a scientist with them! Wasting my time! Sorry, now your questions…

1. I don't downgrade Danny boy, I just play around with him! Mess with his head, that sort of thing!
2. If people aren't scared of me here, then how am I supposed to scare people on other planets? Besides, them being scared of me means I won't get as many distractions as you do 
3. Wow, a hard question…Um it really would have to be a toss up between you and Danny boy, and since I actually stand your company longer, you.
4. I can't talk about that answer Sam; it's just something I can't talk about.
5. Of course I miss that little guy, why? Do you miss your most eager admirer?

Okies, well since it's nearly lunch time I think this will be the last email until at least until 1530.

1. Why are you finding it hard to get a replacement for SG1?
2. What happened when you were trapped on Prometheus?
3. What was the teddy bears name?
4. Are you OK after your dad? You've been quiet.
5. Is there anything you can't do?

I'll see you in 20mins.

Jack

Sam re read and re read the email, flabbergasted that he couldn't even answer a simple question. 'It's a simple question! I don't mean anything by it, I just want to know if it was his motto or him' Sam stared at the screen for a few more minutes before she replied, hoping this would clear a few things up and get a straight answer out of him, his answer during the Za'tarc testing was vague at best.

SUBJECT: Um…Something important!

You're the one who said we should answer truthfully, I want a truthful answer about my question, it's only fair if you think your going to get an answer out of me about my incident!

1. I'm finding it hard because we were a good team and we have been relying on each other for 8 years, it's hard to just replace that like it didn't exist, the person needs to be right for the position otherwise we could fail miserably.
2. Answer mine and I'll answer yours!
3. Don't laugh! Edison…after Thomas Edison
4. I'm fine, really! I wish people would stop asking me that, I was there I saw him, I got to say goodbye. What more could I ask for? I saved his life once before and found the father I always wanted and now I've lost him again, OK so maybe I'm not completely OK but I'm handling it fine.
5. As a matter of fact there is and that's flying. I haven't learnt that one yet, oh and walking on water! 

Ok I'll see you in a few minutes! I'm guessing you'll be nearly here so I wont get a response until after lunch.

Sam

Sam hit send just as her lab door open and Jack walked in carrying two trays of food, one with blue jell-o!

"Hey Carter, hand here!" Jack called as one of the trays began to tip

Same caught the tray just in time and set it on the table in the center of her lab before walking towards the door and locking it again. "Sorry, I don't want distractions, or at least Daniel to realize my door is unlocked" Sam apologized to Jack's quizzical look.

"No problem, I've always wanted to be locked up with you under voluntary situations" Jack winked, "Besides I'm sure half the base saw me walk in here with two trays of food, so I'll give Daniel about 2mins before he comes hoping the doors is still unlocked. At which point he will relies it's locked again and that I haven't left and then the rumor mill will begin operation again!"

Sam gave Jack a mega-watt smile before turning to her food, "I told you a little rumor never killed anyone" Sam grabbed at her blue jell-o before Jack tugged it away

"Uh-hu Colonel, actual food first, then jell-o" Jack placed the jell-o beside his tray and chuckled at Sam's deflated look, "Ah come on Carter, I got you fruits and a few edible sandwiches!" Jack gestured to the neatly arranged food.

"But I really wanted my jell-o!" Sam complained, Jack glared at her mockingly, "Alright, I'll eat some food first, but I get that jell-o!" Sam smiled again before reaching for the first sandwich.

Silence eloped them as they sat eating quietly, it was a peaceful, companionable silence instead of the awkward one they had been having for the past few weeks. Their silence was interrupted by Daniel's arrival at Sam's lab door.

"Come on Sam I know your in there now!" Daniel yelled through the door and continued banging, only stopping to yell again, "Really Sam, half the base saw Jack disappear in there, you don't want the base talking now open up!" Daniel continued banging

Sam looked at Jack, "How long do you think he can keep that up?" Sam asked starting to eat again

"Not entirely sure actually, how long did it last this morning?" Jack asked biting into his sandwich

"About 10mins before I turned up my music and it drowned out his banging" Sam smiled eyeing off her jell-o again

"Ah! No jell-o, still food on your tray!" Jack pointed at the few strawberries and apple left on Sam tray, "I don't think turning up the music will help us, he is right they know I'm in here, how about you just tell him to go away?" Jack smiled satisfactorily

"Why me? Why can't you tell him to go away! Damn I feel like a teenager hiding away from my parents!" Sam blurted, sounding just how she felt

"Samantha whining will get you no where, but just this once I'll do it" Jack got up and walked towards the door, "Next time you can, whether or not its your office or mine!" Jack snapped before unlocking the door and letting a startled Daniel stumble in.

"Danny boy what can I do for you?" Jack asked casually

"Ah actually I was after Sam" Daniel began before remembering that Jack was in here locked up with Sam, "Then again, maybe finding out why you two were locked up together is more interesting! You realize the entire base is buzzing right?" Daniel smirked

"Yes Daniel we realize that, now what is it? I already emailed you that report which means you have the go ahead with the artifact, which is already in your office" Sam asked biting into her last strawberry

"Ah, so I do have the report, ok then, well I should leave you two then" Daniel smirked turning around

"Not so fast space-monkey!" Daniel cringed facing Jack again, "No spreading rumors, were just having lunch and discussing SG1's newest member" Jack explained

"Right, no rumors, your spreading enough on your own, and you've already picked the new member!" Daniel processed the information, "but, when? How? Who? That last one being the most important"

"Can't tell you the who yet, but the when would be when we find them, the how would be the files I gave Carter there" Jack responded pointing towards the pile of files on Sam's desk before the pile on the floor

"Oh ok, well I will leave you two to it then, let me know when you've decided" Daniel smiled stepping out of the room

Closing the door behind and relocking it Jack sat back down at the table and looked at Sam. 'Great what did I do now?' "Yes sir?"

"What? Oh nothing, just noticed your plate is empty, here" Jack replied handing over the blue jell-o, smiling when he saw Sam's face light up

"Thanks sir!" Sam smiled grabbing the cup and devouring the jell-o with satisfaction

Jack laughed at Sam before realizing the time, "Well Cater, I better be off, lots of work to do and emails to check" He winked before picking up the now empty trays and heading to the door

"Uh sir?" Sam began

"Yes Cater?" Jack turned and noticed Sam seemed nervous

'Damn why am I so nervous!' "Nothing sir, talk to you soon" She smiled before Jack walked out of her lab closing the door behind him.

Sam locked the door again and turned up her music, 'This is what I need, some loud soulful music and I can relax and get through some more of these files before Jack replies, if he replies! You were kind of harsh! Oh shut up, he is only getting the question everyone has been dieing to ask for years, and since it involved me I want to know! Why am I arguing with myself?' Sam shook her head before opening the next file on the top of the pile. "Major Jeffery Black…Sorry Major Black I don't like flyboys with no fly time beyond 60hours" Sam chucked his file onto the floor and was about to reach for the next one when her computer beeped at her. Clicking open Sam scanned the email for the requested information.

gatelover: More coming now and hopefully in the future!

Any help on where people want to see this go or some funny jokes they might like me to add in somewhere would be great help. Flames are welcome only if they are constructive, no burning down my house unless it is going to help me re-build it better than before. Sorry to people who don't have accounts and are just reading them, I turned off Anon responses because I really don't like not knowing who is saying what, otherwise I can't reply as above
