ficlet: SG/BSG, fluff
Spoilers for, um. Actually, I'm not sure. Season ten of SG-1 and season four of BSG?
After the second person complimented her, Vala stopped trying to correct them about Hera. Besides, she had to admit that they did look rather alike with their hair up in ponytails and sparkly barrettes. Hera hadn't objected to them in the least, though Vala had thought it was a bit touch and go, at first. But after promising her ice cream, Hera settled right down.
Going to the mall hadn't been forbidden--either by Hera's parents (looking grateful, exhausted, and gleeful all at once) or by Sam when she'd heard Vala was taking over care of one of the newer editions to the SGC neighborhood.
Still, Vala was keeping a careful eye out. Mostly for Sam, though somewhat for others. The NID, for instance, was rumored to be back in business, and Vala knew she was personally an excellent target for their nefarious schemes and ideas. Plus, there were those bounties still on her head that anyone might wish to collect. She didn't discount the novelty of Hera's attracting them, either, though only a few might actually understand her existence and what it meant.
"Your daughter is so adorable," cooed woman number forteen.
Vala was enjoying the attention, though it was becoming a bit tiresome. She smiled, wide, with her teeth on display. "Thank you."
Clapping, Hera bounced in her seat, then slid down and under the table. She patted Vala's knee.
Vala leaned down, "What is it?"
"Toy store?" Hera whispered, as though it were a state secret.
"Ooooh," nodding with a superior air, Vala grinned at her, "You want to go and see the toys?"
"Yes, please."
Filled with ice cream and pleased with herself, Vala looked forward to the toy store. After all, Hera might enjoy a thing or two. And Vala had Daniel's gold credit card again.
