[fic search]: Jack/Daniel

[tresa-cho.livejournal.com]

Mmm, hi! I'm desperately searching for a lost fic. I posted at jackslashdaniel and despite their best efforts they couldn't help me. I can't remember the name, the author, or what site I read it on. I do remember that the story was rather short, less than 6000 words for certain. It's revealed in the fic that Daniel is trapped under the rubble of a collapsed building and there is water coming in under the ruins. As the story progresses, the water slowly rises. Jack is holding his head above the water and I think telling him a story though Daniel falls unconscious about halway through the fic. They're waiting for Carter and Teal'c to come get them, and at the end of the fic they radio in.

I cannot remember if it is specifically Jack/Daniel or if it's pre-slash or generic friendship. My leaning is that the story was pre-slash.

Note: It is not the wonderful story by chattycatsmeow, which is remarkably similar and lovely as well.

Thank you in advance for help.

Ugh. I can't. The usual suspects are LJ and Area52, though, and I've already looked back through Area52. I'm absolutely stymied as to why I'm having such a hard time finding it. Usually I only hit a few sites, and read recs and what not, but nobody's recced it.

I'm doing my best to remember phrases from the fic to help my google-fu. I think Jack said 'shut up' and something about it being his turn to tell the story. It was third person POV.

Bleeeegh. Thanks for spending the time to help me. I appreciate it. >.<;;;

I just hope you finally locate it, because it's now driving a bunch of us completely bonkers. :-)

Guh, I know. I suppose the more brains the better... but it seems to be ungoogle-able. :C

There's some key bit that you're not remembering that someone else will and it'll all come flooding back. :-)

I certainly hope so. Rawr. *frustration*

Is there anything about the actual story Jack told?

All I remember was that it was an analogy about his relationship with Daniel. There may or may not have been a dog in the story. I'm starting to think this may be pre-slash.

I spent a while today googling various combinations of possible words/phrases and got nothing. Maybe the site it was on has a googlebot stopper. Frustrating!

Aww, and here I thought Google owned the world. :C

Thanks so much for searching for me. I appreciate it so much.
