They'd pitched the tents an hour early on account of the seventeen-degree weather and Sam's temperament. Jack had mentioned several hours ago that she seemed a little crabbier than usual ("It's that time again, I swear." "It's not her fault, Jack." "I'd pump her full of cheese if it would make her stop cramping all the damn time.") and now the three of them were huddled in a flimsy contraption of vinyl and plastic, all because Sam had refused to walk twenty more miles.
"Lucy Liu," Teal'c announced out of nowhere, causing Daniel to drop the flameless heater he'd been tinkering with. Jack paused in his as-of-yet-unsuccessful MRE-hunt and turned around, jostling the frame of the tent.
"What?" they asked in unison.
"Several days ago Colonel O'Neill asked me which particular Earth females I preferred," Teal'c answered, solemn as ever. "After much consideration I have decided that Lucy Liu would make the most compatible mate."
Daniel shot Jack a look; he shrugged in reply. "Aw, come on, Teal'c. I didn't quite say it like that..."
Teal'c's mouth formed something like a smirk. "I was quite surprised by the qualities your Earth females possess. I found that the Uma Thurman you speak so highly of is indeed attractive. Your Angelina Jolie seems to be of especially good breeding as well. And I would not hesitate to mention Peekaboo Polly."
Daniel choked a little on the ice-covered cracker Jack had managed to find. "'Peekaboo Polly'?"
"She is most talented." It was definitely a smirk now. "Her energy rivals that of many Jaffa."
Jack waved his hands in the air to stop the conversation. "All right, T, that's the last time you borrow my videos!" He knocked over the (still cold) heater to emphasize his point, sputtering slightly.
"Indeed," muttered Daniel. Teal'c just smiled.
