I read this on the rec of a friend. I looooooves me some angst-- the angstier, the better-- so as you can imagine, your Robot!SG-1 story was more than satisfying to me. Poor Jack especially-- you caught his emotions, his despair, his frustration with himself and his inability to communicate effectively, really well. Lovely work, every word.

Thank you so much. This comment really meant a lot to me. I am relatively new to writing fanfic, and so far when I have written angst I have felt almost apologetic about sharing it. I like reading angst too, but normally like it with happy endings, and some types of angst just make me sad and aren't good, and so I tend to forget that some people just do really love reading angst! So your comment was such a great reminder, and will help me feel much more confident when I write angst in the future!

And thanks for telling me specific things you liked about Jack. Watching the episodes I felt empathy for Jack specifically, I think the way that they focused on him more or something, and I am happy to have been able to get some of those emotions into words.

Thank you so so much!
