SGC
Two Hours Later
Jim and Blair were in the SGC conference room. Also in the room were General Hammond, Major Carter, Teal'c and Dr. Fraiser. The General explained that Colonel O'Neill and Dr. Jackson were 'occupied'.

After a very long and very complicated explanation, Jim said, "Let me get this straight. We're in a secret war with aliens from another planet. We have allies, who are also aliens. One of our supposed allies kidnapped us...."

"Which they're really sorry about," said Carter.

Jim grunted. "So, Blair and this Jackson were accidentally exposed to this alien device which turned them into women."

Blair shifted uncomfortably in his...her... chair. Fortunately, she usually wore baggy shirts, so her new breasts were covered. However, Blair now had hips, so the jeans were too tight in some places and too loose in others. Blair couldn't bring himself....herself to even look Jim in the face much less talk.

*Damn*, Blair thought, *I don't even know how to think of myself! He/she/it?* Blair tried to concentrate on what was being said.

"That about covers it," agreed General Hammond. "We sincerely regret that you and Mr. Sandburg were mixed up in this, and we'll do everything in our power to put things right."

"The first thing we need to do," piped up Janet, "is to find out how Mr. Sandburg retained his rationality."

"Excuse me?" said Blair, speaking up for the first time.

Janet sighed. "The reason Colonel O'Neill and Dr. Jackson aren't here is because they're still...well..." *Spit it out, Janet, you're a doctor, for God's sake!* she scolded herself. "They're still engaged in sexual intercourse."

"Still?" said Jim, his eyebrows lifting almost to his hairline.

"Apparently, unless Daniel participates in sexual intercourse at least every hour or so, he experiences acute distress and even pain. Needless to say," continued Dr. Fraiser, "Colonel O'Neill is getting somewhat fatigued."

"I'd say," said Blair.

"So what we need to do is find out why you've been able to change without needing intimate contact."

Jim and Blair met each others eyes and Blair, to his horror, blushed.

General Hammond read their body language and said, "Is there something you'd like to tell us, Mr. Sandburg?"

"We did," Jim answered, to Blair's relief. "When Blair changed, we did...um...engage in. You know."

"How often?" Janet asked quickly.

"Just once," supplied Blair. "We kind of fell asleep after."

"Hold on," said Carter excitedly. "When you two, well, did it, did you use protection?" Carter saw the stunned look on both their faces and the dawning horror.

"General," said Carter, "I think I know how to help the Colonel and Daniel." Carter winced in sympathy for the two people in front of her. Sandburg buried her head in her hands and Ellison was patting her shoulder and awkwardly trying to offer support.

SGC Infirmary
A Few Hours Later

Daniel Jackson's eyes opened. "Sam? Janet?"

Carter and Fraiser smiled down at the confused archaeologist. "Hi, Sleeping Beauty," said Carter. "How do you feel?"

"Like crap." The two women smiled.

"Anything else?" prompted Janet.

"Really tired. I had this really weird dream, too. I might tell you about it someday, when I'm drunk enough." Daniel started, looked down at the hospital gown, and lifted it up. "Oh, my God. It wasn't a dream!" Daniel dropped the offending garment. "Jack?"

Daniel followed their gaze and saw Jack sleeping on a nearby bed. "He's fine," Janet answered Daniel's unasked question. "He fell asleep as soon as we determined you'd be okay."

"What a nightmare! I knew it was wrong but I just had to...and Jack was the first to come to mind...Damn. Wait a minute. How did you get me to stop....wanting sex?"

"Well," said Sam, "lacking any other resources, we had to make some pretty wild assumptions.

"First, that this was the desired effect. We just had to hope this wasn't some failed experiment that Nirrti abandoned. Second, that the purpose was to quickly increase the ranks of Nirrti's Jaffa. Third, that the constant state of arousal was to encourage rapid conception. Nirrti wouldn't have cared about the Jaffa's sensibilities, she would simply want them to get on with it. And, last, that the arousal would abate upon completion.

"This last assumption was based on Blair Sandburg's behavior following his...well...her conversion."

"Oh, crap, Sandburg! Is he alright?"

"She," Janet gently corrected. "Yes, Blair is about as well as can be expected. It's too soon to tell just yet, but I suspect she's pregnant."

Daniel shot up in the bed. "Janet! I'm not, am I? I mean, I know it was bad, but you...I mean Jack...didn't?"

"Daniel, relax," Sam assured him. "You're not pregnant." She directed Daniel's attention to a transparent patch on her upper arm.

"What's that?"

"Transdermal patch," Janet answered. "You're on the pill."

"What!"

"When I realized that Ellison and Sandburg had had unprotected sex," explained Carter, "and that Sandburg was coherent after, I had a theory. The arousal that accompanied the transformation was to ensure that the chosen couple had sex quickly. My theory was that as soon as the presence of seminal fluid was detected in the body the arousal would cease."

"Eeeew," said Daniel, "TMI, Sam. So, that's where this thing came in?" Daniel indicated the patch.

"Precisely," said Janet. "It prevented you from getting pregnant, while at the same time allowing the proper fluids to be..."

"I get it, Janet," Daniel interrupted. "Now what?"

"Now," continued Sam, "two things could happen. One, you live out your life as a woman."

"No way," said Daniel firmly. "Don't get me wrong, if I had been born a woman, fine, but I like the original Daniel Jackson just fine."

"Two, and this is my theory, you'll change back in a few days."

"Huh? Sam, as much as I'd like to believe the second theory, how do you get that?"

"Pure inductive reasoning," Sam announced triumphantly. "You didn't change right after your exposure to the alien device. It wasn't until almost exactly twenty-three days had gone by. My guess, you'll be a woman for five days."

"Okay, I'll bite, Why five days?"

"It completes the cycle. A woman's estrus cycle is approximately twenty-eight days. A normal woman would have five days where she isn't fertile, whereas you and Mr. Sandburg..."

"Will have five days when we are. Dear God, you mean this is permanent? Five days out of twenty-eight we'll be women?" "Only time will tell," said Carter, "but that's what it looks like."

"Crap!"
======================================
VIP room in the SGC
Same Time

Blair sat on the bed brooding. Jim was sitting at a table nearby, drinking coffee and looking at Blair with evident worry on his face.

"Okay," said Blair, "let me have it."

"Have what, Chief?"

"I've screwed everything up. Not only am I a freak, I'm a knocked up freak. I've also dragged you into the Sandburg Zone with no way out."

Jim sighed and put down his coffee. He walked over to the bed and sat down by his partner.

"Chief, first of all, you're not a freak. Trust me, I'm an expert on the subject."

Encouraged by the brief smile on Blair's face, he continued, "And there is no way that this is your fault. You didn't get us captured by aliens. You didn't intentionally get turned into a woman.

"And if you are knocked up, I'll be the happiest man alive. Because I love you."

"You love a 'woman', Jim."

"That's where you're wrong, Chief. I've loved you since the Switchman case."

For the first time, Blair felt what his friends usually did when they entered 'The Sandburg Zone.' "Jim? What are you saying?"

"I'm saying that the only reason I never jumped your bones was because I didn't want to scare you away. I knew you were attracted to me. Don't be so shocked, I 'am' a Sentinel, you know. I just wanted something more than sexual attraction. I wanted love."

Blair's emotions were in a whirl. "Damn, I knew you were the king of repression, but..."

"Let me finish. After the dissertation fiasco, I knew you felt the same way about me. A person doesn't give up their 'Holy Grail' for anything less than love. I just hadn't worked up the nerve to tell you before this happened."

Blair buried her head in her hands, again. "God, we're dumb."

"Well, we're guys. Some people might argue that's the same thing."

"Not anymore," Blair commented, regarding his no longer flat chest.

Jim allowed himself to smile. "I have to say, you make a really sexy woman. But you were pretty damn sexy as a man, too."

"What if I'm never a man again? Or if I'm pregnant?"

"Either way, we'll deal."

Jim and Blair melted into each others arms, and their bodies folded together as if made for that purpose. "So," said Blair, "you wanna screw? I'd like to see how it is with my head on straight."

"My pleasure," said Jim, and covered Blair's mouth with a searing kiss.

SGC
Five Days Later

It turned out that Carter's prediction was correct. On the fifth day, Daniel changed back to his usual gender. Blair didn't, but by that time Janet had ascertained that Blair was, indeed, pregnant. After much soul searching by both parties, Jim and Blair decided to have the baby. And oh, by the way, "We think we know why the aliens wanted us, have you ever heard of Sentinels?" Thus, they started a whole new career. Again.

Jack was a man on a mission. He had been seeking out SG-1's archaeologist for two days after Daniel's return to normality. Jack had been doing some soul searching of his own, and he intended to share the results with Daniel come hell or high water.

He was in his office, of course. Jack mentally kicked himself for not thinking of that first. Also, he was alone, which fitted the bill perfectly.

Daniel looked up when Jack entered the room. He fidgeted with his ever-present cup of coffee.

"Jack, hello, I wasn't expecting you. I'm afraid I have an appointment with...Janet. Maybe we talk later." Daniel darted for the door. Jack, utilizing his special ops training, neatly blocked his retreat.

"No way, Daniel. You've been ducking me long enough."

"I don't know what you mean," Daniel said, not meeting Jack's eyes.

"Yes, you do. I was doing some ducking myself, at first. Then, I got to thinking."

"Why does that make me nervous?" asked Daniel, pushing up his glasses.

Jack ignored him, "I was thinking that the reason you called me that night was because you were aching, literally, to get laid, and I was convenient. Then it hits me. You could have called Davis, and don't you tell me you haven't noticed him eyeing you, Daniel. You could have called Graham Simmons. You could have called Teal'c, for God's sake. But you didn't. When you were in need you...called...me." With those last few words, Jack had Daniel backed up against the wall. He carefully took the cup of coffee out of Daniel's hand and put it on his desk. He did the same to Daniel's glasses.

"Jack?" Daniel asked, but he was unable to continue, as Jack had firmly planted his lips onto Daniel's.

Too shocked to resist, Daniel fell into the kiss. Jack tongue entwined around his, and his kneed buckled. He stayed upright only because he was between the wall and Jack's strong, lean body. They broke the kiss in a gasp, both of them needing to breathe.

"Jack, what the hell are you doing? The camera!" With a smirk, Jack pointed up. Daniel looked in that direction and found himself staring at the bottom of the security camera.

"Blind spot," Jack explained. "But that's not the only one. Had one myself until recently.

"Did you know," Jack continued, running his hands up and down Daniel's arms, "that I'm bi? Bisexual, that is?" Daniel, stunned, could only shake his head. "Yup, I'm a perfect five on the Kinsey scale. Which means that I like men and women equally."

As he was speaking, Jack had unbuckled Daniel's belt and was diligently unbuttoning Daniel's trousers.

"Did you know that I've loved you since we blew up Apophis' ship? Well, that's when I *realized* I loved you." Daniel's eyes widened. *Damn, his eyes are really blue,* thought Jack. *You could drown in those eyes.*

"Since...Jack that's been years!"

"I know. So, how long have you been in love with me?"

Silence for a few moments. "You're damn sure of yourself, aren't you?" Jack just regarded him with his soft, brown eyes. Daniel sighed. "Since Kynthia, and I realized you might die and all I could do was watch."

Jack smiled widely, and then he fell to his knees.

"What's this? A proposal?"

"All in good time. Right now, it's more like a proposition." Jack had Daniel's boxers exposed. He reached in and pulled out a very hard cock.

Jack breathed heavily, his heart thumping like mad. Grinning, he proceeded to lick Daniel's cock like a popsicle. Daniel made a noise deep in his throat. Jack stopped and looked up.

"Hey Danny boy, you sound like you're in pain. Should I stop?"

"If you do, I'll show you what pain is, flyboy!" There was a glint in Daniel's eye that made Jack's cock jump.

"Ooooh, nasty when frustrated." Jack proceeded to nibble on Daniel's cock, and he teased his scrotum with his fingertips.

Daniel moaned and cursed and pleaded with Jack to finish him. Now!

When Daniel was poised on the brink, Jack stopped to make one more comment. "I'm a perfect five, Daniel. And when I realized that I could have both my preferences in the one person I love more than my life? Sweet!" With that, Jack opened wide and swallowed his love whole.

"God!" Daniel screamed as he orgasmed.

"Nope, just Jack."
==========================================
Nine months later, Jaime Sandburg Ellison was born in the SGC infirmary, and Blair changed back into his old self as soon as she was weaned.

What happened to our boys after that?

Well, that's another story!
