Video: Quiet Times (Stargate, Sam/Jack)

[uhsir]

Song: Quiet Times
Artist: Dido

Summary:
Sam struggles with her feelings for Jack while accepting Pete's proposal and then...

Warning:
There is a good deal of Pete in this video and the scenes are the "yucky" ones. This is a sad, angsty video. No happy ending here. Please put all sharp objects and weapons out of reach before viewing.

This song and theme was suggested by nynaeve_sedai over a year ago at the Gateworld forum. I dug out my CD, gave it a listen and agreed that this song is perfect for the Pete/Sam/Jack triangle. It took me this long to make the video because I could not decide on a way to do the video. At first I was going to follow the beats but I just about went insane working it that way and still telling the story. So I threw that away and pouted about it for a while and then one day I listened to the song and zoned in on the strings and knew that had to be the key.

The "yuckiest" scene wasn't in there, yay! :D

Very nice vid, as always...me thinks I'm gonna have to go watch "Never saw blue like that before" and "keeper the stars" now :D

Okay, I realize I probably scared folks away thinking that scene would be there. :p

I agree that those two will definitely wash away the yuck.

Forgive the intrusion of a dyed-in-the-wool anti-shipper, but I had to tell you that I love this vid to tiny pieces. :-)

While I don't enjoy Jack/Sam, I do adore a well-made vid, and this is most definitely one of those. Beautifully paced, gorgeous to look at, it has obviously been made with great care and love, and it makes better sense of the storyline than the writers ever did. Bonus!

This is great. Thanks for psoting. :-))

I'm speechless. Okay, first, there's nothing to forgive. I'm honored that you watched and then commented. You've totally made my day! Thank you so much! This helps me to not give up when I'm feeling stuck.
