"Jack, you'd better come look at this," Daniel turned toward the older man from his perch at his all-too cluttered desk. His computer was turned on in front of him, displaying a blindingly colorful webpage decorated with various photos.
"What is it now, Daniel?" Colonel O'Neill questioned exasperatedly as the pencil that had previously been balanced on his nose fell to the floor with a clatter. He was sitting in a swivel chair across the room, his feet resting on a small side table nearby. In fact, he had been seated in the exact same place for hours now, having had nothing else to do. And he was still incredibly bored, as Daniel was not the most exciting person. Who knew?
"Remember that writing I translated on P3X-781?" Daniel turned toward his computer once again, carefully observing the contents of the webpage.
"Maybe."
Daniel rose an eyebrow and pushed his glasses further up the bridge of his nose. Glancing at the military officer, he mustered up the sternest look he could manage. "Jack."
"Refresh my memory, will you, Daniel? If that's not too much to ask."
Daniel rolled his eyes, then frowned. "Fine. But you have to promise me you won't forget this time."

Daniel shook his head, then looked back at the computer screen. "We found a golden tablet on the planet. It was covered in Go'auld writing, and once I translated it, the tablet spoke of an ancient device with great power, capable of—"
"Yeah, yeah, I remember now. Get to the point." Colonel O'Neill adjusted his position on his chair. His left leg had fallen asleep.
"Well, I did some research." Daniel paused dramatically, taking the time to turn around again and look the Colonel straight in the eye.
"Get on with it, Daniel. They're not paying you for nothing."
Daniel scrunched his eyebrows together, then continued, "the device—or the other tablet, I should say—is on display in the Museum of Natural History in New York City."

A/N: Dun dun dun…
I know it's not much yet, but the next chapter should be done quite soon. I'd say a day or so.
Stay tuned!
