#and pn:au is a huge project and the only reason i havent dropped it is my extensive planning

[mushroom-through-the-stargate]

i have had in my head for about a week now a loose silly au where daniel is a 6yo savant, jack is a retired colonel doing some civilian job thats more conducive to child-raising and also is daniels dad, and sam is daniels babysitter on the weekends and an air force scientist trying to make the stargate programme work on the weekdays. honestly based off that post i made awhile ago about how little sg1 would change if daniel was replaced by a first grader. little baby danny would get to go through the stargate and jack would NOT be recalled to the military but hes officially there entirely as dannys dad/guardian (sam is head of sg1). this is not to diminish jacks role in sg1 but to make sam/jack not be against regulations. hammond doesnt care, he knows that jacks gonna be on that team anyway because 1969 still happens (just imagine little baby danny still saying "nyet" when the soldiers ask if theyre soviet spies 🥹). danny won't really die as often as daniel does, he kinda has kids show plot armor. im not doing a(nother) full series rewrite because i dont hate myself and i want to focus most of my energy on pn:au [phase shift is slowly but surely coming i promise], it'll probably be like a snapshot of a handful of episodes - a specific scene i think would be made either funnier or more impactful if daniel was the small child he acts like sometimes. but my question is....
