...I was really sure why I wrote this...

[so_out_of_ideas]

Ok...So...Sarah's response, basically was "You're writing this angsty crap because...?" Well, I don't know, the whole thing, literally popped into my head word for word. So, I wrote it down. Upon doing so it occurred to me that it works for this week's challenge...so...here we are. My shortest fic ever!

Title: Between the Stones
Author: Lionchilde
Summary: AU One last goodbye?
Rating: G

Length: 200 words
Pairing: Daniel/Vala
A/N: Written on the spur of the moment...setting is some time after Water. I know the title makes no sense. It will in the next installment.

Between The Stones

Dear Vala,

I hope you can read this. Sorry my hands are shaking so much. It’s so cold that if we didn’t keep biting our fingertips to keep the circulation going, I wouldn’t be able to write at all. At least we’re out of the wind now. It’s like knives that drive straight through your clothes, no matter what you’re wearing.

Anyway, sorry. I have so many things I want to say, and I don’t have time or paper. But if Sam can’t get the ‘Gate working, we may not make it back at all. I have to try. First I need to tell you that I’m sorry I went behind your back and got Landry to pull you from the mission. It was wrong; I guess I just felt like if we were gonna do this, I needed to know you were safe. Somewhere. Now more than ever. I’m sorry I won’t be there with you tomorrow, too.

Shots from the Al’kesh up there are getting closer. This whole place is shaking; the roof may come down right on our heads. I have to go help Sam. Know that the last two years have been more than I could imagine. Know that I love






Four hours later....I finally remember to post this... *sigh* Thanks to Fate and Sarah for reading.

did it get cut off or is it supposed to be that way?

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

yes.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

Um...Yes, it's supposed to be that way. *sighs at self*

[avitargirl.livejournal.com]

but that's so sad! *wipes tear* I like that. I'm usually an angsty person, anyway.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

As a rule I'm not...at least not "all angst and no fun." But, this just kinda showed up, and when that happens, it requires writing.

Fear not, true believer...the story doesn't end here...

[avitargirl.livejournal.com]

Oh i can't have all angst no fun either! that's just...no fun. There is more to this story though right? I really like it.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

*glances at ever mounting pile of half finished stories* *glances at other pile of ideas* Oy... *goes back to making icons*

[martyfan.livejournal.com]

Daniel/Vala is my only OTP, and you just hit a good deal of my angst buttons. Is it bad to say I love it? *guilty* I'm an angst-addict.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

*grin* Well, I certainly don't think it's bad to say you love it. But then, I wrote it. So go ahead...love away. lol.

[stargatefangurl.livejournal.com]
