Stargate SG-1 (9.03 - Origin), Vala(/Daniel)
In the garden I did no crime. - "Raspberry Swirl", Tori Amos
Raspberry Swirl | G | 100 words | complete
Maybe it was reading about Origin that was making Daniel think biblically. Old Testament. The linguist in him knew it was probably a pomegranate that was the snake’s weapon of choice, but he couldn’t help staring. Literal forbidden fruit, if only in his own mind. He could practically see Vala’s strong profile rather than Sallis’ more delicate features.
She caught him staring, and he tried to look disapproving. From her momentarily hurt expression, he must have managed. He turned back to the book, but he couldn’t focus to translate. He wondered what she would have done if he had smiled.
Feedback is better than chocolate.
