I decided, for my debut offering,
to go back to the very beginnings of my slash roots, because folks have
been suggesting I give this series the 'zine' treatment for a long time,
and also I'm trying to use reconnecting with this series and these
characters to get back into the flow of - the story which shall not be
named.
This Special Edition of the
Doppelganger Series will contain all six stories in the original series,
all rewritten with some interesting additions, particularly the title story,
which has been extensively revised, lengthened and is now, a slash story,
complete with a brand new Mayonnaise ending. Woo Hooo!
And if that's not enough to
pique your interest this edition will also include the two bonus stories,
Yard Work and Provocation. While they're not part of the Doppelganger
arc per se, they are about the AU Jack and Daniel and they're kinda
cute, so why the heck not.
So that's eight stories all
together, all illustrated, all hopefully improved, this version of
the series only available from Yadda Press.
And all for only $10.00
US, $15.00 CND.

And now: the excerpt...
From Doppelganger, the first story in the series.
“Why are you telling me this?”
Jack heard himself saying. His voice sounded scared, he was scared.
It was a stupid question, he knew it, he already knew the answer but he
couldn't stop himself from asking it anyway.
“You know why,” Daniel whispered,
his lips brushing briefly against Jack's ear, making him tremble for an
entirely different reason than fear. “Funny. All of a sudden,
I’m afraid…”
"Daniel - don't -" The words
burst out of him. "There has to be another way - "
"Shhhh," Daniel gently soothed
as he rubbed his cheek against Jack's shoulder. "It's all right.
It's better this way. This universe already has a Daniel Jackson; there's
no place for me here, no way for me to live and be what I am. Believe
me, continuing to exist alone, without being able be with the people I.…love…"
Daniel's voice faltered for
a minute, and Jack stood, silent in his helpless grief while Daniel buried
his face in his jacket and trembled, deeply breathing until he got control
of himself once more.
"Wouldn't be any kind of life
at all," Daniel finished softly. "At least, not any kind of life
I'd want to live. Besides," he paused to emit an insincere laugh.
"What's the problem? It's not like I'm real… Who'll even miss
me? Or care I even existed, however briefly."
The bands around Jack’s chest
were moving up to his throat. Suddenly he wanted to turn to Daniel,
take him in his arms, hold him close, tell him he was wrong, so wrong no
one would even know, or care, because it wasn't true, wasn't…wasn't…but
he couldn't, couldn't do any of those things because in order to go to
Daniel he would have to let go of Danny and he couldn’t…
"I - I would…" was all he was
able to squeeze out past the huge lump clogging his throat.
Jack could hear Daniel's smile
even though he couldn't see it.
"You would?" he ventured shyly,
his stark, unabashed pleasure at receiving a gift he'd obviously never
expected nakedly obvious in his voice. "I - I - " he stammered, fondly
patting Jack's shoulder. "I wouldn't have thought - " Jack felt the
hand clench his shoulder tightly, heard Daniel swallow loudly. "Thank
you," he said finally. "That - that means a lot. I can do this
now."
Jack still couldn't speak as
he felt Daniel's head drop to his shoulder for what he knew was the last
time. Daniel stayed like that only a few seconds, gripping him tightly,
rubbing his face in his jacket and breathing deeply. Finally, his
head came up again, slowly. A pair of lips brushed feather-light
on his cheek.
"That's for him," Daniel's voice
sounded close to his ear as he felt a hand cup the side of his face, caress
his cheek, and with a gentle, loving pressure turn his face toward…
"And this…this is from me,"
Daniel whispered, his breath warming Jack's mouth as the words caressed
his lips.
