"What the hell is going on here!"
Daniel looked down at the sleeping pair, and grabbed a sheet off the bed nearby and draped it over them, as to preserve some of their modesty.
After placing the sheet over Jack and Sam, Daniel caught sight of Teal'C, who was lying on the floor.
Getting no response from the ministers, (who had continued to chant as if he had not entered the room), Daniel shouted at them. His face turned a couple of shades closer to crimson as he spoke, "I asked, what's going on here?"
Daniel was usually a diplomatic person,… but this was no place for usual behaviour; something was not right with the people and the planet.
Hearing the commotion Daniel was making, one of the superiors entered the room. He took hold of Daniels back and arm and pulled him outside; while smiling as if he were a puppet.
"Please, this is a sacred time."
Daniel was immediately intrigued and decided to calm down a bit.
"What do you mean sacred?"
"When we first encountered you, we could sense that your comrades shared a deep affection for one another and for reasons unknown to us, they have obviously not pursued things."
"They are fellow comrades, and well... on our planet that means... well that means considering what they have done, they are in a lot of trouble."
"But they are drawn to each other, are they not?" The senior minister asked, with a genuinely puzzled expression on his face.
Daniel took a few minutes to bring up the memories of those looks and slight touches shared between the two that he and Teal'C had witnessed over the years.
"I suppose they do,.. but it was their choice not to act on it. What you have done is considered wrong in our culture."
"In ours, it is simply creating harmony."
"I'm afraid our superiors won't see it that way... And what were the ministers chanting about anyway."
"It was a union blessing."
"...Union?" Daniel blurted out.
"Yes they are tied to each other as one."
"You mean in your culture."
"Yes in our culture, and in their hearts and minds. They will forever be connected."
"In what way connected?"
"They are connected in their hearts and mind, they will share their thoughts."
"Wait... share their thoughts!"
"Yes they will now be able to share their thoughts, simply and directly without the need for verbal communication."
"And when you say forever, you mean?"
"Forever."
'Oh boy' "I will have to contact my people, there is someone I need to come to the planet as well. If that is alright with you of course minister."
"That will be fine."
"Will you also be able to have someone see to our other comrade, Teal'C?"
Daniel asked taking a concerned look towards the room where he was.
"Of course Daniel Jackson."
"Smiling for a moment, at the way the ministers response reminded him of Teal'C, Daniel then proceeded to head towards the Stargate, at a high pace."
