Hey, what's not to like about a planet called 'Happy Happy Fun World'?

"But you're not going to say no are you?" Vala pouted. In a very short space of time in Vala's head, this had gone from just being about the shore leave to getting out of that psych and medical test permanently. She'd seen the announcements on the comms and she knew she was supposed to attend.

"Come on Daniel," Vala nudged him with an elbow playfully, deflecting her need to get out of the tests more than she'd ever admit with a fake smile, "you wouldn't deny a girl the chance to go to Happy Happy Fun World, would you?"

Forget the fact she has no idea who to bribe, or if they'd even be open to that sort of suggestion. She hasn't thought that far ahead yet.

Ow. His ribs were healing fast but it didn't mean they weren't a little sore. Vala's elbow, which he thought was surprisingly sharp for her size, went into it. Daniel grinned tightly. Any thoughts about backing off just yet went out the window.

"I am this time," seeing as how this was all hypothetical. And apparently only Daniel knew this was a hypothetical discussion. If it were for real, yeah, he wouldn't say no. Although he'd prefer not to help her build a bribe. He'd got with her to the start of the eval or the inoculations if she wanted company, but he wasn't going to help her squirm out of it. "So now what?"

Now that that less than legit option was a bust, maybe that meant she'd actually take the other route.

Oh God, she'd forgotten about his injury, have an 'eep' face Daniel. "You have had that checked out, haven't you?" Why yes she is a hypocrite, thank you for asking.

Nothing is hypothetical in Valaworld, he'll probably learn that in time. An idea can become a full blown plan of action in a matter of seconds, usually without the need for discussion and often mid-sentence.

"Well I guess I'm not going then am I?" She looked genuinely disappointed, "bring me back something. Preferably not the popcorn."

"They said it was healing."

Yes, Vala, unlike you Daniel did actually go to the infirmary. He just didn't stay put. As long as he wasn't in danger of keeling over, it was good enough. He could still move about and work. Maybe it was just a matter of a no-show patient versus a bad patient, so he probably shouldn't talk. He wished she thought of it before she introduced her elbow into his side.

Daniel only had to take one look at her face and tell she was really disappointed. The enjoyment at watching her try to worm out of the hypothetical physicals vanished in about two seconds flat. Great. Now he felt like an ass. She really did seem set on getting out of the ship and looking around. Daniel had been trampling all over it just to see what she'd do.

Damn.

"You don't need a test or shots," Daniel sighed, then added. "I was pulling your leg."

"I knew that!" Vala's puppy face switched to a look of sheer denial and indignance in the time it took her to sharply lift her head. She shrugged as if she knew his game all along. She's allowed to mess with you Daniel, but she really doesn't like it when the tables are turned.

So much so, she added a quick "I had you with the face though!" Then she smiled sarcastically. If smiles could talk then that one said 'I win, Daniel'.

Yeah right. It was like watching Vala try to gather her dignity. He should have stopped earlier before it really affected her, but as far as he saw it, it was a little late to save some pride. Daniel's eyebrow lifted, if you could compact a 'are you seriously trying to salvage your ego?' into one motion.

"No you didn't. You really wanted to go," Daniel couldn't resist being a pain in the ass. Vala hadn't won a thing, other than getting him to back out. "I know what real disappointment looks like. You had it."

Maybe she won this round. And if she didn't find anyone else to hang around, Daniel guessed he could accompany her this time. Show her the ropes and make sure she didn't get lost or something on this planet. She was, supposedly, part of the SGC in some distant future. But just this time.

"Come on, we should get going."
