Crossroads challenge.

This one is completely Ryuu's fault, just... for being there, I suppose. And then not telling me I was on crack when I said it.

Raiting: G. Set: S8. Warning: Minor character death. Spoilers: 2001.

"Why are we here again?" Daniel was being snippy.

Carter was finding that he was always snippy. "This is where they said they bury their suicides." She wondered if Daniel noticed that she was shaking, her hands clenching and unclenching unconsciously.

A hand touched her shoulder, she glanced at Teal'c. "These crossroads appear deserted, Colonel Carter."

"Thank you, Teal'c." She searched, eyes traveling over the rock and dirt until she saw it. A small rounded stone, a name scrawled on it. The grave was obviously not recent. She knelt, fingers tracing the name, soft guilt touching her. "Hello, Ambassador Faxon."

Youch. I admit, I never really liked Joe, but still: poor Ambassador Shiny!Shoes.

Thanks. *g* I don't mind him, but... He was a dangling plot thread! And I was considering crossroads, and how they used to be where you buried suicides so they wouldn't get up and walk, and...

Ah, useless trivia. ;)

Thank you. I thought he deserved better than he got - at least an acknowledgement of his death.

Y're welcome.

I have seen a few where he gets resolution. They're uniformly sucky.

*cough* I'm such a fic elitist.

I know.

And for the record, my brain also wants me to write Narim/Sam going booooom 'cause she stayed with him on Tollana after Pretense, and the goa'uld just nuke the planet in Between Two Fires....

OH EM GEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That would be....totally amazing. She'd be this technology expert and he's this governement official and they have really cute children and then Jack& crew come for the funeral and it's SAM who gives Jack the information that shit is going down and there's all this ANGST and OMFG! YAY!....:brain hurts from the concept:

LOVE YOU!

...That's... scarily close, and the end had this bit with Sam waking up next to Narim and realizing she didn't love him, but...

erm yah.

*grumbles*
