Sobek watched the display without twitching a muscle, standing as still as the very guards lining the room and showing just as much emotion. The Doctor's suffering was just another occurrence in a long line of agony he'd seen in his life time, another mortal, and too bloodless, not nearly enough stoke the urge to rend and tear. But this wasn't about the Doctor this time or getting information.
The Doctor had proved resilient to this point. A simple procedure such as this would not get him to talk. Kill him maybe. Enough stimuli and he could stop both of those hearts. Sobek remained unconcerned. Death was not something a God needed to concern themselves, not when they had the ability to control life and death. What the God noticed was Smith's reaction to his test.
Smith's getting off on it, Daniel thought. Daniel watched alongside the System Lord with something like surprise and then disgust. Daniel may not have been as experienced with sadism in its purest form before Sobek. Now he was. Intimately. He saw it playing out in their minds constantly, daydreams, glories of the past, plans for the future, all violent and reveling in the gore, but that was a Goa'uld for you, and an old one at that. Seeing it so blatantly on another crew member's face wasn't something the vessel expected. Sobek's mouth twisted with displeasure behind the mask.
The slave wasn't doing this for his God's sake. He even reached for the controls, as if his God had given him permission to do so.
The guards that came in with Sobek and Smith stepped forward and swung their staff weapons at the back of Smith's knees, intending to stop him and bring him kneeling to the ground, show him that was where he belonged.
