Why this should be read:
Soul Senses takes place shortly after the episode Threshold, and features an SG-1 that is trying but not-quite-over Teal'c's forced betrayal. When a suspicious village picks up on the team's hesitation and Teal'c's own insecurities, SG-1 is forced to undergo a test to prove their trustworthiness. Now they must find their way back to the village in two days, while overcoming the handicaps that the village elder/shaman has saddled them with. This fic is about Teal'c, and his team, and learning to work together again when you thought you'd forgotten how. A good read.


"You speak with passion," Tomahe said, regret coloring his tone. "All of you. Your concern for one another is compelling, I admit, especially for the Jaffa. I believe all will be well."

Before she could figure out what he was talking about, Atonwa was giving her the royal open-your-mouth treatment and something vile breached her lips. Choking on the liquid, Sam's stomach was rising up in anticipation as it unwillingly slid down her throat. The texture of molasses, it was some of the nastiest stuff she had ever experienced - reeking like river mud on a hot, humid day and tasting exactly as it smelled. Its effects were nearly instantaneous.

Atonwa released her and she wavered unsteadily. Everything appeared to ripple, executing graceful flips. She raised her hands in the air and wiggled her fingers, watching with fascination as both her hands and their digits multiplied. A deep, burning sensation began to set upon her throat, making her cough dryly. Swallowing was difficult, though she really needed to alleviate the parched feeling.

The thud of Daniel collapsing next to her echoed loudly and she tried to locate him, finding herself unable to move. Her name. Someone was calling to her...Teal'c? Squinting through dimming vision, Sam searched for him. She cleared her throat, pain tearing through it. What was happening to her?
