See, it's because of that mentoring relationship that the pairing squicks me. It's too much like a mother/son relationship, especially given that they've set up a bit of UST between Roslin and Adama (Sr.), and that's one of my major squicks.

So does that mean you think Sam would lose her personality if she ever got together with Jack? I suppose I can see that happening, given how the SG-1 writers treat the pairing. In fanfic it can be okay, but canon is iffier. I'm not saying I like Sam/Jack better, just that it doesn't bother me, while Lee/Laura does.
