Why this should be read: I am on such a Jaffa (and Tok'ra) kick since... well, forever. This is just a little AU snippet with Rya'c and Bra'tac after Teal'c dies, and yet it captures everything in that Rya'c&Bra'tac&Teal'c dynamic that I love so much. Both the anger and the understanding, both Rya'c's youthful struggle for independence and Bra'tac's wisdom.

"I remember when he first defied Apophis," Rya'c said with a growl. "My mother and I were outcasts." Bra'tac said nothing. He faced Rya'c and waited. "Our friends turned on us and we were burned out of our home. All because my father believed in freedom."

"Was he wrong?"
