Obviously I did not create SG1.
Teal'c does not wear his heart on his sleeve. In fact, while he has lived among the Tauri long enough to know recognize that "heart on his sleeve" is an idiom, he does not know what it means.
The Tauri are brave warriors, but their culture is strange to stay the least. Teal'c often misses his family and his home planet Chulak. But sometimes, while consuming the Tauri delicacy known as "Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie" his sadness is assuaged. Truthfully, chocolate is now his favorite aspect of the local cuisine.
One day, a character , both bland and sympathetic enough for the reader to project themselves onto, comes face to face with Teal'c in the mess hall. Both have a great need for some chocolate therapy, but there is only so much chocolate to go around.
