He tells her about Jonas sometimes and how he would talk about them being outsiders.
“I don’t feel that way,” he says. “These people feel like my own.”
“You’re lucky,” she replies. “I get what this Jonas of yours meant.”
She’s serious in a way with him that she never is with the others. He doesn’t need her act, sees through it as easily as through tissue paper. She wonders how he can stand her let alone like her when his life was made intolerable by the false gods that she is a living reminder of.
She likes the way the muscles of her thighs ache afterwards because he is so broad. She likes the way he laughs, full and open only with her. She likes that he’s forgiven her for something she had no control over.
In these strange times, he understands home is what you make it and Teal’c allows Vala to make hers with him.
