Just Smile and Nod
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Rated: G
Category: Drabble. Gen. Humor. Teal’c POV.
Season: Any, though five makes the most sense.
Spoilers: Itty bitty one for Ascension, I suppose, and a knowledge of Star Wars helps.
Summary: Sometimes, it’s best just to just smile and nod. Or in Teal’c’s case, just nod.
Note: Written for the 2012 Ancient Obsessions Advent Prompt: Counting. (Holiday Fic). Oh, and I heard it was rundmc_3po 's birthday today, so this one's for him.

I have always believed O’Neill to be far more intelligent than he pretends.

Until now.

For I certainly thought him wiser than this. I assumed that anyone, even a neophyte like O’Neill, could guess that I already own this movie - in its original cinematic form.

Obviously, I was mistaken.

But I keep my thoughts to myself.

Instead of informing O’Neill that this has no place in my home, I nod gratefully toward my friend.

For the Tau’ri saying is correct.

Even when one is gifted the Special Edition of the Star Wars trilogy, it is indeed the thought that counts.

Oh, Jack, for shame. Didn't you read the label? Tch!!

Well, as of season five, he'd never seen Star Wars, remember? "You know me and sci-fi" and all that. ;)

Muggles do these things. My mom barely knows the difference between Wars and Trek, and my sister, who really should know better, once gave me a Griffyndor shirt. My inner Ravenclaw was polite, but I did exchange it later. ;)

Anyway. Thanks for reading, my dear.
