Five Time Vala Didn't Want to Steal Anything

1. When she came home from the village crying to her mother, full of the awful things Trinka had said about her beloved father. her mother sat her down and told her exactly what Jacek was and how he earned his living. Vala vowed that she would never, ever, take anything from anyone. Ever.

2. When she was finally freed from Qetesh. She promised herself that she would never again take anything that belonged to anyone else.

3. She didn't want to steal a ship, she honestly told herself she was only borrowing it for just a while. Until she could save her adopted people. Then it would go right back to it's proper owner.

4. After she barely escaped from the Tau'ri, she forced herself not to steal anything for a whole week. Just to make sure she could do it.

5. When she realized how many people were just waiting for her to screw up once again. And how deeply grateful she was to the handful who were betting she wouldn't.

I started to just say 'Daniel' there but then I realized it wasn't just Daniel's decision. Yes, he went to Landry and yes, he stuck his neck out for Vala but if the rest of SG-1 hadn't genuinely believed she could contribute, she wouldn't have gotten on the team at all.

She's one messed up gal, but that handful of people who have her back now can make all the difference. *hugs her*
