1.
Vala.
No, actually, that's not strictly true. Vala kissed him, and it was a terrifying experience he never wants to repeat. He makes a mental note to buy Daniel a drink or several at an unspecfied later date - clearly the spacemonkey is a braver man than he.
2.
He kisses Sam - both of them still relatively sober at this point - just because he can. He's no longer her commanding officer, and it's something he's always rather fancied doing while not under some kind of alien influence.
3.
He plants one on Hammond too, purely for the amusement value. The looks on everyone's faces will keep him entertained for a long time to come.
(He's more than a little tipsy by this point)
4.
He's always been an affectionate drunk, although he tries to switch to water before he gets to the 'I love you, man' stage. Apparently he didn't stop quite in time on this occasion, but to his credit, Teal'c takes the sloppy kiss pressed against his cheek with characteristic composure.
5.
The fifth kiss of the night is very different from the others.
Even more thoroughly unexpected than Vala's; not a joke, or a gesture of friendship, or a 'just because we can'. This is a kiss with intent behind it.
The other difference is in where and when it happens. Not out in the garden in broad daylight, around the barbecue with beers in hand like all the others, but later - after nightfall, after everyone else has staggered away supported by their designated drivers or been poured into cabs. He's contemplating the mess that was once his back garden when senses honed by years of battle inform him that he's not alone.
He turns and find himself pulled into a highly unanticipated but extremely welcome kiss, the taste of fear and determination and too much alcohol. It's unexpected, but unlike his brain, his body catches on immediately. Maybe he's a little drunk - god, he must be if this seems like a good idea - but he's not the only one, and it doesn't seem to slow them down as they move things inside.
The next morning could have been awkward if they weren't so very, very hung-over. Coherent speech seems an impossible goal. In any case, nobody's going to ask, and nobody could tell even if they wanted to.
It doesn't matter. Words could only have gotten in the way.
(A tendency to open mouth and insert foot is only one of the many things he and John Sheppard have in common)

Ha, Jack had the exact opposite reaction to Vala's kiss in my list - he wanted to go back for more!

Re: No spoilers (Not intentionally, anyway)
Each to their own ;) My Jack is a liiittle scared of Vala. Although he'd die before admitting it, obviously.

A wonderful line!
And I like the surpring end also very much! Very nice twist.

(in case the squeal doesn't do it)--LOVES. All five were perfect, but Teal'c and Sheppard made me :) :) :)
