Agh! That's the third time the database has crashed this morning. I think Atlantis is being a little pissy. Do you suppose maybe it doesn't take too kindly to my using a Naquadah generator to make s'mores? Not that I'd ever do anything like that. Not even if it was 2am and the mess was closed and I was still halfway through a mission report

Questions, then!
1. If you could dye your hair any colour, what would it be?
2. What kind of high school did you go to?
3. How many cousins do you have (if any)?
4. Which planet/race that we've encountered so far is your favourite?

2. Well, there were students there, and quite a few teachers as well.
3. Lots on my dad's side, because he's got about a hundred siblings (okay, it's closer to five), three on my mom's who has significantly less. Oh, right, but you want a number... I've got twelve cousins all up.
4. Oh, oh, I liked the ones who ran a casino out of a couple of barns! (I thought it was particularly crafty how they hadn't attracted the Wraith's suspicion. Unless the Wraith knew and didn't care, but come on! Today it's pokies, tomorrow it's nuclear missiles.) ... Though things did get a little uncomfortable that time when those two Genii came in to play at the slots.

Oh, really? Mine too.
So nine, then, on your dad's? Yes, I've always found that number quite mistakable with one hundred and all ...
*tilts head* Oh ... I think I vaguely remember something about that. I s'pose your team gets all the cool stuff though, doesn't it?

Are you serious? This is uncanny! Did you have classrooms, too? 'Cause that would just be freaky.
Ah, but I was referring to my dad's siblings, not their offspring! And he has five of them, you see - and you'll of course know that a hundred is a multiple of five so therefore it is quite a bit easier to mistake!
We used to, back when people were ignorant enough to wager their cool missions on Adam losing a cricket match, but now they've wised up Bravo Team's been seeing quite a few more rocks and, like, people who want to kill us.

1. Which is your favourite pairing on Atlantis at the moment?
2. What would you name your first child?
3. Who would you most want to make out with on Atlantis?
4. Who do you think is the smartest person on Atlantis?

Actually, come to think, I did see him leering at one of the Aussie soldiers the other day. Seaman Jackson, I think.
Now, that's so wrong it's amusing.
2. Well, see, I could say any old name like Adam now, but he might just not look like an Adam when he eventually comes into being. Or he might not be a he at all, or something. So I'll just say Adam to butter you up.
3. We girls have a growing prize pool on the first person to make out with Stackhouse (consensually being the catch)... but that'd be just a little weird.
4. Now, now, Lieutenant, it's not a competition... See, Rodney's standing behind me now and he agrees! He says of course it isn't because nobody could be expected to... uh. Huh. To compete with his all-knowingness.
Say, is that even a word, McKay?
Okay, he's looking at me pretty dangerously now.

...or because you secretly do want to name your child Adam so that he might look and be an Adam, but it's fine if you don't say so. I know what you mean. *knowing smile*
Oh? You do? How did I not know about this?
Yes, we musn't cross the line with the Great and Almighty Rodney McKay.

...um, sure.
You haven't been able to sufficiently disguise yourself to be let into the girls' poker games?
Well yeah, you can, just gotta figure out the right time to do it. Some basic indicators? Coffee/exciting new discovery/alcohol = good mood, go for it. Lack of coffee/lack of food/things being blown up = bad mood, do not approach.

1. Assuming that you could and would be able to make s'mores using a Naquadah generator (again, this is purely hypothetical) would you be willing to if not teach me how to do that, or at least share those non-existent, completely rhetorical s'mores?
2. Please?
3. If you weren't in Atlantis right now where would you like to be?
4. See as how you know how to make hypothetical s'mores, I take it you went camping a lot?
Reply
2. What are you doing tomorrow midnight?
3. I'd actually be okay with the being in Atlantis bit right now if we had like a local Starbucks or something. Hm, right now, this second? Camping out in some forest on a certain little blue planet. Hey, it's the s'mores thing.
4. Every summer! Do you think Weir would let us camp out on the mainland this summer if we coat it in some vital scientific experiments?
Reply
2. Do you have a favourite place in Atlantis?
3. Could you be coerced into pet-sitting a Fuzzle Whimpet?
4. Who would you most like to send back to Earth on the Daedalus if given the chance?

2. I like the mess, 'cause there always seems to be stuff happening there. There's always someone to talk to, you know, or some gossip making the rounds, or even just Elise giving the kitchen people a verbal lashing.
And there's this place near the south-west pier that's really awesome. I think it's actually a result of some minor structural damage caused by the big storm last year, because the walkway slopes almost right down to the water so you can dangle your feet in. It's real peaceful out there.
3. ....... Okay!
4. I was going to say Kavanagh but he always seems to make things interesting. Not always in a good way (though the guy has his moments), but it sure stops life from getting boring.
