Why this should be read: Normally I don't read kidfic, but while this does follow the usual trope of  'alien device turns person into kid', the story is not quite like the others. This is the first one I have read that turns Tok'ra into kids - and not just the hosts. It's hilarious to see them not only behave as children, but also children who knows very little about Earth and its customs. I really enjoyed poor Jack O'Neill and Teal'c as they try to carry out the mission Hammond gives them - babysit their two team mates along with the three Tok'ra who are all now 6 years old!

 

 

"Wait, Colonel..." Janet said, suddenly realising something. "Martouf, do you remember anything? Do you know who you are?" She smiled kindly at the little boy.

He nodded. "Yes, I am Martouf.

"You're not Martouf. You're Lantash!" O'Neill said, irritated.

"I am Martouf! You said so yourself!" He got a stubborn expression.

"Listen, sweetie. Martouf is your host. We just thought you were him, but when we heard you speak, we realised you're Lantash."

"What's a host? And why does that man hate me?" Lantash pointed at O'Neill who groaned.

"He's...um...not angry at you." Janet sent O'Neill a warning look. "He's just frustrated because we don't know what's happened to you and your friends." She indicated the three other children. "Can you remember anything?"

He shook his head slowly, looking as if he was about to cry. "No."

Janet took a deep breath. "Okay. Don't worry about it. It's okay. My name is Doctor Janet Fraiser, but you can just call me Janet. That's Colonel Jack O'Neill, and that's Teal'c." She pointed at each of them.

Lantash nodded, then suddenly got a puzzled expression. "I don't know where this is."

"Um...you're...you're in a hospital." Janet said, deciding not to say anything about Stargate Command, since it might confuse the child. Now that she thought about it, so might a hospital, given that the child in question was a symbiote. "You're here because we need to figure out what's wrong with you."

Lantash continued looking around the room. "Where are you?" He sounded a little annoyed. "Inside? How can you be inside me? That does not make sense!"

"Uhoh..." Janet looked at O'Neill and Teal'c. "I think Martouf is awake and talking to him..."

"And he has no idea they're in the same body - or how. What a mess!" O'Neill suddenly looked very tired.

"Lantash, can we speak with Martouf? He's the one...uh...talking inside your head."

"Yes, of course you can. Why are you asking me?"

Janet took a deep breath and started explaining hosts and symbiotes to him.
