Sam And Jack Forever - Tumblr Posts
I fully believe this is Amanda genuinely cracking up at something Rick’s just said. And the photo was taken at the perfect time.
And Sam & Jack are totally married. Married and happy and enjoying a lovely life together that they’ve more than earned.
What I wouldn’t give to have a copy of this photo… <3
Resigning? What for? So I can do… this
Oh no it's killing me what was your OTP
Oh, I mean these cuties right here:
Colonel Jack O’Neill and (then) Major Samantha Carter of Stargate SG-1.
Their chemisty was off the charts on day numero uno, and only deepened from there. Trouble is, the USAF was heavily involved in production, and as such they were (rightfully) adamant that Sam and Jack never get together, because they’re in the same chain of command and Jack is Sam’s boss.
What that means is that whatever we got between them was either subtext or context.
See that top gif ^^? Their memories were wiped and they were enslaved in an underground mining facility. They couldn’t remember that they weren’t supposed to be together. They regain their memories at the end of the episode.
And this one?
Groundhog day time loop. Jack waits until the last minute of his very last loop, hands in his resignation, and dips Carter into a kiss. It might look like some early aughts dubcon right there, but in context it’s the episode immediately following their off-the-record love confessions, and also Carter is clearly into it.
Not to mention…
Alternate Timeline! Sam never joined the military, and Jack never un-retired, which means they’re free to bone to their heart’s content in a desert a million lightyears from home.
And not even last, but certainly not least:
Good old-fashioned concussion hallucination!
This doesn’t even get into the *little* moments, such as:
- The hand touches in the briefing room (get a room guys)
- The Battle Couple Trope
- The “I thought Carter was dead but here she is” thigh touch
- The “I’mma borrow your sidearm for a sec”
- And the whatever the fuck THIS WAS:
And this is just barely scratching the surface. I know what you must be thinking: so much content! but NO. Over ten years of content, ten years of cute smiles and absolute trust, and speaking without words and no confirmation.
Trust me– a few annual ship days in and the content runs out real fast, let me tell you. Whenever anyone accuses me of hating all hetero ships, I point them to this ship, as proof I like them when they’re done right.
And by right apparently I mean 10 years of canon slow burn and no payoff.
Oh god this hurts. I love them so much.

Sam/Jack + asking the other if they’re okay
