December 4th - Snowman
There was nothing as humiliating as a giggling major.
Scratch that: a giggling major and a guffawing archaeologist. The amused Jaffa quirking an eyebrow at him did nothing to lessen the embarrassment Jack O'Neill was being forced to endure as a result of his teammates taking such delight in his predicament.
He'd tripped, stumbled, fallen, and rolled down the hill. Nowhere in any of that did he see anything which could inspire so much good humor in the three who stood before him.
The two scientists' knees quivered as they gave into their mirth. "It was like that scene from Willow!" Sam gasped, clutching onto Daniel as though the equally-giddy linguist would be able to keep her from falling. "Where Madmartigan falls off the sled and comes tumbling down the mountain side?"
Jack indignantly put his hands on his hips--or at least he would have if he could have reached his hips. "Well, I'm glad you kids find this amusing."
Teal'c inclined his head gracefully before stepping forward to begin chipping the snow away from Jack's body. "I believe I now understand the concept of a 'snowman', O'Neill."
Behind him, Daniel and Sam erupted in fresh howls of laughter.
