Why this should be read:
Because it's another road-trip fic by Aces, because this fic and that one make a beautiful pair, and because the first fic I recced this week had Cam cooped up inside. This one has Cam cooped up in another timeline, the road trip he never took with Teal'c playing out (in skillfully rendered conditional tense) in his head as he makes a solitary drive of his own, and it's achey and haunting and gorgeously written ... and, ultimately, both moving and hopeful. About 2300 words.
Snippet of fic:
Onwards, ever onwards, why stop when they were only in the middle of the country? Sometimes Cam would have let the other man drive, but Teal'c wouldn't make demands the way Vala would have, or get fidgety the way Sam would have, or kept up an incessant stream of academic nonsense the way Daniel would have if he wasn't head-down in a book. They would have sat quietly, together, and watched the prairies and the fields fly by.
