Oh my goodness I am a lazy bum about responding to this, and it's such nice feedback too, so thank you for that, much more sincerely than the timing of this response implies.
Sam and Daniel have such an interesting connection, and part of it for me is that they work separately, but then come back together and understand the importance. Especially if it's such a visible gut punch as in this story. I really can't imagine any other member of the team catching on so fast when something went wrong for Sam, or rushing so quickly to aid and talk and hug or whatever. Sam can be an emotional dunce, it's really important to have Daniel around to be intuitive where she isn't; and it's important for Daniel to have Sam there to gush emotion when it's important, instead of tamping it down like he does.
I'm glad you liked this, and always glad to find someone else who loves Sam and Daniel.
