Because I've been bitten by the nostalgia bug. Because while there are many EPIC & ETERNAL love stories such as Kirk/Spock, these two were one of my first OTPs and Daniel was/is one of my all-time favorite characters ever. Because his 'death' in the season 5 episode 'Meridian' still makes me cry. Scratch that. Makes me
weep. The kind of crying where your eyes get puffy, you get a headache, and your chest hurts from sobbing. He comes back. He didn't even really die. Not exactly. But
SG-1 will always be like a family to me. There were shows I loved before (
The X-Files) and there are shows I love now (too freaking many to name), but it will always be MY show. It's where I got my username. And Jack/Daniel will always mean more to me than I can explain. I actually can't watch too many vids or read too many fics in a short amount of time because it's actually emotionally exhausting to me. One of the saddest days for me was when my first laptop died. It had all my saved J/D fic, vids, EVERYTHING. I try not to think about it, but I see so little
Stargate fandom activity these days and it makes me sad that I lost so much. These were the days with dial-up internet and I would be awake for hours downloading one or two music vids.
VIDS!!
Thanks to so many vids like this, I will always associate this song with 'Meridian'/Daniel's death. And I will continue to cry like a baby.
But this is what I remember when I think of those two.
ICONS!!
A few of the MANY icons I've made of them - some better than others ;)




I TOTALLY FORGOT TO ADD THIS TO MY XMAS ICON POST *HEADDESK*

RANDOM CAP TIME!!
 |
THE HUG |
 |
IT CONTINUES |
 |
SPACEMONKEY, YEAH! (don't mind me, I always make spacemonkey one word) |
 |
Jack thinks Daniel is dead (for the 2nd time I think - 1st time being movie) and so he takes his anger out on the General's car |
 |
*stares* |
 |
*gazes* |
 |
Awwww |
 |
SO CLOSE! |
 |
That's pretty close to be looking each other in the eyes. And NOT kissing *pouts* |
 |
<3 (which will be my default when I have no real comment) |
 |
Coffee? (aka Daniel has trained Jack well) |
 |
'Jack, don't be an ass!' |
 |
'Daniel?' I LOVE that that line is what makes Jack believe it's really Daniel <3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
Oh, God. This scene breaks my already broken heart into even smaller pieces. Jack sees Daniel alive for the first time since 'Meridian' and his voice breaks when he says 'Daniel?' <3 x infinity |
 |
They like it a little rough. |
 |
Jack won't let Daniel risk his life, and to make his point, he slams him into a wall. |
 |
<3 |
 |
Jack's trying to calm Daniel down before he throws a (perfectly understandable) bitchfit. |
 |
'Go to your happy place.' |
 |
Jack to the rescue! |
 |
Those two getting into trouble. |
 |
More trouble. |
 |
Even more trouble. |
 |
Daniel's place is under surveillance. He is aware of this fact and is sprawled on his bed. |
 |
And Jack is creeping on him like a perv <3 |
 |
I FREAKING LOVE THIS EPISODE. ('Abyss') Jack wants to die and Daniel wants him to ascend and be with him. |
 |
Jack doesn't believe he's capable of that, but Daniel knows better <3 |
 |
I love how they always run to the other one first even if other people are in trouble/need help. |
 |
Oh, God. The beginning of Daniel's goodbye and telling Jack to just let him go *cries forever* |
 |
A breeze blows past SG-1 (how many miles under ground in a top secret military base) and Jack smiles, knowing it's Daniel <3 |
 |
Jack the episode after Daniel ascended. He's become even more quiet and withdrawn. |
 |
<3 |
 |
Love this bit. Jack saying he's sorry and Daniel's confused acceptance <3 |
 |
*looks* |
 |
<3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. At least that's what Jack's always heard. |
 |
TENSION |
 |
Jack talking a very depressed Daniel off of his balcony where it looked like he was going to jump from 0_0 |
 |
Jack to the rescue again! |
 |
Sticking close. |
 |
Personal space? What's that? |
 |
<3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
HAIR RUFFLING!!! |
 |
<3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
Daniel getting a little bit of revenge. |
 |
This kind of hurt to watch. |
 |
<3 |
 |
Jack had thought Daniel was going to die. AGAIN. I don't think he knew if he wanted to smack him or kiss him. |
 |
MOAR TENSION |
 |
<3 |
 |
Not only did they say the same word at the same time, but it was a word that most people wouldn't have even used. One brain, those two. |
 |
<3 <3 |
 |
Watch where you point your gun, Danny. |
 |
<3 |
 |
DAMMIT MORE TENSION |
 |
Not!them looking cool in sunglasses :) |
 |
BOYS! |
 |
LOL arguing over nothing <3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
Do you want to talk about it?/ No. *pause* So it happened like this... |
 |
How do I know it's you?/ Because./ Yeah, okay. Moment <3 |
 |
Chillaxing |
 |
Smug!Daniel |
 |
Happy boys <3 |
 |
<3 |
 |
MORE TROUBLE. Damn troublemakers. |
 |
<3 |
