I really enjoyed this story. It was like seeing the entire episode in a new way. All characterizations were spot. Loved the teamy goodness, their concern for their friend. And later, Sam and Teal'c's concern for Daniel.
I especially liked the way you dealt with the whole straws thing. I always felt that there had to be more to than story than what was apparent, what with the enigmatic look from Carter. Other fanfic explanations have been cool, too, but I liked this one.
There was still definitely a feeling of things being not-quite-settled at the end, but there was with the show, too. Daniel is still obviously hurting. But I've read a few great post-Shades stories that resolved it to my satisfaction, I think particularly the one by ELG? Can't remember at the moment. Anyway, those were great, but I really loved this one, dealing within the ep itself.

Great job!
