Thank you! and yeah, having people watching your back is important, but having people watching your back who viscerally know why the back needs watching is important too...

Thank you. (And don't feel pressure to be more articulate. Any feedback is good feedback. *g*)

Very powerful and heartfelt. Really like the interaction between Sam and Cammie and the deep feeling of friendship.

Thank you! I really love the Sam-and-Cammie friendship in this 'verse, and I'm looking forward to getting the chance to play with it some more. They've known each other for ages, and they don't always agree on a lot of things -- in fact, they rarely agree on a lot of things -- but they love each other anyway.

Yeah. Thank you for their different POVs on this (including the implied worries from Jack and Teal'c) and for writing it. (The Massachusetts think-tanks would be a while figuring out what'd hit them, too; that section made me grin a lot.)

Oh, man, if Sam were in the private sector, nobody would see her coming. I think that's part of why I love Sam so much. Brains are sexy!

And yeah, the whole issue of gender relations is so huge and complex, so fraught with threads that you have to keep tugging at in the eternal hope that maybe this thread is the one that would unravel the whole thing, but I believe that the rest of SG-1 would be there as backup too. I just wanted to explore the concept of what it would be like to go from "having backup from people who don't have the same kind of experience" to "having backup from someone whose experience is closer", and I picked Cammie-and-Sam instead of Sam-and-Vala because Vala doesn't come from the Earth-based culture ...

There's just so much floating around in my head about all of this that sometimes I want to flail my hands around and splutter.

Thank you. :)
