Summary
She's moved on. She's engaged to someone else. Jack doesn't have to be her shoulder anymore. He doesn't have to listen to her babble about an issue until she figures it out. He's her CO. Her boss. He should expect support from her, not the other way around. He ought to turn around and walk the other way. But she looks so dejected---so upset---so troubled---that he can't quite make himself actually leave. After all, they'd always been friends, hadn't they? Written for the June 17, 2025 #TuesdayMuseday photo prompt.

Summary
Another stab at The Cabin idea. After Jacob dies and Sam dumps Pete, the team goes fishing. This is just another reimagining of the possible scene there, where Jack and Sam finally figure things out. Fluffy, angsty, sweet, funny--this one's a little bit of everything. Just like our favorite couple. <3

"So I've been thinking about it," he says. "The establishment's clearly not set up to handle this situation. Nobody even brought me a casserole."

Summary
“Even they can’t say everything they need to say just by looking into each other’s eyes.”
Jack and Sam have a series of conversations between her rescue from Orilla and his decision to accept the promotion... because they are both as bound to duty as they are to each other.
From Chapter 13:
This might be the hardest thing he’s ever had to say to her. “We let each other go. Now. We accept that there’ll always be some reason we can’t act on this thing between us, and we move on. No waiting for each other.” He fixes her gaze. “We let this… go.” He really sounds like he means it. He’s even making it sound like it’d be possible. “Or… instead of waiting until we win the war, we-” He stumbles over how exactly to put this second option delicately, and without losing his cool. “We do this – this thing between us – now.” His insides flip saying it; hers do too, hearing it. “We keep it secret, from everyone. We risk it all and explore… this. Now.”
