Why this should be read: Read this one for the sheer joy of classic Jack and Daniel friendship, complete with snark, humor, banter, and both of them being perfectly themselves... even if, courtesy of Jack's subconscious, Daniel is stuck in a gown and tiara. :)

"Daniel. Are you seriously going to lecture me even in my dreams?" Jack demanded.

Daniel cocked his head and raised an eyebrow. "I don't know. Am I?"

Jack sighed. Daniel settled next to him on the hearth, sending up a puff of ashes. Jack thought about asking why Daniel was wearing combat boots, but decided against it.
