AN: okay, this is the and the only part which is Daniel-unfriendly. Basically it's just about his dying alot and carelessly putting his team in danger over rocks or women or just because he's unable to follow orders, everything being canon. Pretty mild stuff, IMO.

"At least Sam and Teal'c are still free." said Vala. "We still have some hope."

"Yeah." agreed Cam. "I also very much doubt that she would appreciate being tied up like this with someone, especially Daniel or Teal'c."

Both shuddered in revolt at the thought of Sam being tied up naked with either of the men she considered brothers. Especially Daniel, whom she considered as a younger brother, an annoying younger brother, but a younger brother nonetheless. Cam and Vala both knew that that happening would've traumatised Sam for life and she would be in need of some serious therapy.

"Well, there would be one good side, but I don't believe it would've compensated for Sam's mental scarring." mused Vala.

Cam was instantly intrigued. Anything to get his mind off of their little predicament. "Yeah? What's that?"

"The General would've killed Daniel and that slowly and painfully."

They both perked up at the prospect.

While Jack wasn't an aggressive-towards-his-friends man he would make Daniel pay for once again, for the thousandth time, being too focused on some rocks or culture (or lack of it in some people) and callously putting his own team in danger.

He'd done it numerous times while Jack was still the leader of SG-1 and he was doing it still, after over 10 years on the team and the front line. Yet, recently this tendency was starting to get serious consequences, like Ori knowing about this galaxy. The man would just never learn and the rest of former and new SG-1 just hoped Daniel's callousness wouldn't cost them and Earth their lives in the end.

And in this instance Sam would've been hurt and seriously traumatised. Jack would kill Daniel fur sure.

Cam grinned maliciously. "Oh, yeah, no-one does that to the General's wife and lives."

Cam and Vala were mightily pissed at Daniel over getting them into this situation and a slow, painful death seemed, in their opinion, like a fitting retribution.

Vala sighed. "Unfortunately, he would just ascend again, go bug the Ancients for a while, until they got fed up with him, again, descend and bug us again."

Cam agreed with her. "It's pretty unfair, don't you think? We've lost so many people, good and capable people, lost forever, leaving behind families, wives, husbands, children, people who loved them; and he, who doesn't have any blood or marriage family, no wife or kids or siblings or even parents, just keeps popping back up again. What makes him special that he should live while others don't?"

Vala was just quiet, remembering all the people she had met, while at the SGC, who had died. Good people, people with families, people who took care of themselves in the field. People like Lt Sandra Rush who left behind a broken hearted, loving husband and three children, all of them younger than 5 years of age. People like SGT Thomas Riley who left behind a grieving fiancee. People like Captain David Roberts who left behind his young wife, just days from giving birth to their baby, now fated to give birth to and raise their baby alone, while still grieving for her husband. And he'd intended to resign from active duty after that mission so that he could be with his family without the fear of dying. So many people, so much pain, heartache and misery. So many people who deserved a second chance much more than one lone man, who would've been missed by only 6 people, who were just his friends, not even family. So many people who would appreciate and know how to take this second chance and not bury themselves in ancient scrolls, dusty books and dirty artifacts all over again, as if nothing had happened, not even for a single second truly appreciating and taking advantage of the wonderful gift he'd been given.

Where is justice in the world that people like that die, for good, leaving behind loved ones and children, when they did everything they could to avoid it, while someone like Daniel, who is careless, callous, has no survival instinct or common sense, nor does much to avoid injury or death, and has a tunnel vision, comes back again and again, perpetually being given new and new second chances, undeserved second chances, that he doesn't appreciate nor takes advantage of.

Everything was quiet for a while, both depressed and sad, remembering the friends they'd made and lost while at the SGC.

Their hormones had settled slightly as a result of the depressing topic, but were awakened again when Vala sighed heavily, dropping her head on Cam's shoulder, making her rub against him in all the right, or wrong considering your point of virew, ways and places.

Then it was all back again.

Unconsciously they'd both started moving slightly, each trying to find their own release to end this torture, but it would not be.

All they achieved was to work themselves up even higher. Cam was so aroused by now he was over-sensitized and he knew that at this level of frustration he wouldn't be able to get off quickly, even if he could take care of it himself.

It didn't help matters any that they were both dripping with sweat by now and because of it Vala's nipples brushed against his chest with every breath she took, working them up even more.

Cam was very aware of Vala's juices soaking his manhood, having them all over his erection and balls, feeling them drip between his ass cheeks and pool under his ass, on the seat of the chair. It was an incredibly intimate feeling, being coated by her intimate juices, even more intimate than the way they were in contact with each other's private regions.

They were both silent as they worked to ease their own and the other's tension, vainly as it was, and the room was filled only with their laboured breathing, gasps and the ever strenghtening smell of sex.

'Just a little more.' they both thought, concentrating on crossing the finish line.
