Janet dragged herself from Criminal Justice to the library, unlocked it, and tried to decide if she felt like working today sat down behind the Collections Desk. She started checking in books very, very slowly.

"Is it possible that there's an alternate universe where you haven't heard of Jack?" asked Janet. "I'll grant the cooking as a possibility. I'll even grant the 'sweet and innocent' as an extremely slim possibility. But I can't imagine a universe where you two don't know each other."

Janet gave Sam a look. "If you really want the mint, it's yours." And not at all because you pouted, really. She laughed. "If I had any objections, I wouldn't have pulled the box out and offered. But why do they disappear in your room? Is your roommate a truffle-stealing thief, or do you just keep eating them?"

"According to quantum theory, there's an infinite number of possible alternate universes...there's got to be at least one of them where I don't know Jack," she shrugged, realizing she might be losing her audience, "After all, there are at least two where Daniel wasn't involved in Deep Space Radar Telemetry, and I can't imagine that, either."

Sam eyed the mint truffle, then selected a different one. "No, I'm good with the hazelnut, really." She blushed. "I keep eating them. It's a weakness."

Janet grinned. She remembered that one, really, but it was kind of fun watching Sam get started. "Daniel not being around the rest of us something like that is completely unimaginable."

"If you insist." Janet took the mint truffle and bit it in half. "So instead you just prey on my weakness for chocolate and my willingness to share?" She laughed. "Which I don't mind, of course, and that's why you do it."

"For you especially, I'm sure," Sam teased, reaching over to poke Janet.

"Yep." She took a bite of the truffle in her hand. "Your faults are saving me from single-handedly keeping Wonka chocolates in business. So, thanks."

"Yeah, well, I'm particularly attached to Daniel," said Janet, batting at Sam's hand. "In a different way than you or Jack are."

"If it lands me more chocolate?" Janet laughed. "Then I'm more than willing to help out."

"And thank goodness for that!" Sam made a face as she thought about things that maybe didn't sound so horrible and were so pretty the idea of Jack and Daniel as a couple." And then she promptly started laughing.

"I'll remember that," Sam chuckled.

"Things would start getting a little too interesting for our own good maybe awkward." Janet's face nearly matched Sam's at the thought of Jack and Daniel as a couple, and she leaned on the desk while she was giggling helplessly.

"I had no doubts."

"Interesting Awkward is a good word for it," Sam said, as her laughs tapered off. "And oh, my god, they'd kill each other."
