As the Atlantis personnel had gotten ready to go Teyla had asked, "How come her heart rate spiked when you finished speaking? John never did anything like that."

"It might have been because John had Elizabeth as a mouthpiece while Sam has no one, or it could have been because Sam has a lot more control over her body than most people, even when she's sleeping," Daniel answered, rising from his seat, "She's been through too much to not be able to manipulate her body somewhat."

Teyla nodded and she, Ronan and Rodney left, quickly followed by Elizabeth and John as they headed to Elizabeth's office to write up their reports on what happened to John and Elizabeth's report on what happened to Sam. Carson also left the do the same thing; write up reports on both incidents.

After they had all left Daniel looked over at Vala and said, "There's not much for us to do here. Sam's going to fine so how about we get back to those translations."

Vala nodded, and after they had both given Sam's hand a quick squeeze Daniel said, "One of us should stay with her until Jack gets here."

"I agree DanielJackson. I shall remain with her for now," Teal'c said, taking the seat that Daniel had just vacated.

Daniel nodded before he and Vala turned and left. If Sam had been critical, or they didn't know what was wrong with her they would have stayed but right now she was basically asleep and there were things they needed to do.

Cam stood for perhaps a minute before he too squeezed Sam's hand and also left the room. Teal'c settled into his chair and began his vigil. "You will not be alone ColonelCarter, not until you wake up."

In Elizabeth's office both she and John were working in their reports. "So," John said, after a few moments of silence, "General O'Neill and Colonel Carter."

Elizabeth nodded, "They've always kept it professional but now that I think about it all the signs were there. When the General had the repository of the Ancients downloaded into his head for the second time and was subsequently frozen in Antarctica she basically blackmailed me into letting Teal'c and herself take the cargo ship the General had modified to go and find the Asguard for help."

"Blackmail?" John questioned sceptically, he didn't know all that much about Sam but he knew Elizabeth and being blackmailed wasn't really something that he really associated with her.

"She said that if she wasn't allowed to go and find Thor, or one of his people, then she wouldn't assist in reverse engineering the improved hyper drive. I must say though, I was impressed, she had obviously picked up a few negotiating techniques through the years because she managed to say it all without actually making it sound like a threat."

John was silent for a moment before he asked, "So how come you figured it out so quickly with only the one incident a few years ago."

"You forget," Elizabeth answered with a smile, "I've read most of the reports from SG1's missions and while the reports never said it outright, I'm a master at reading between the lines."

"Oh," John said.

"Yah," Elizabeth answered.

Both fell into a comfortable silence as they continued with the reports.

After Teyla had left the infirmary she had headed towards the gym where she was scheduled for a sparring session. As she walked though there was something niggling at her in the back of her mind but she wasn't really sure what.

Once the session was over she realised what was bothering her and headed towards the lab where she knew the translations were being done, knowing that Daniel could answer her question and he was either there in the infirmary.

She walked into the lab and was glad to see that Daniel was indeed in the room, along with Vala, who was an enigma to Teyla, unlike anyone else she had ever met before.

Daniel looked up at the sound of the door opening and smiled at Teyla before he turned back to the board that both he and Vala were writing on.

Teyla watched for a few minutes, waiting for a chance to ask her question that would interrupt them the least. Her chance came when Daniel put down the photo he had been working from and picked up another. Before he could turn back to the board Teyla said, "Doctor Jackson."

Daniel looked at her and asked, "How can I help you Teyla?"

"I have a question about Colonel Carter," she said. Daniel nodded and she continued, "You may not know the answer and I know that it's not my place to ask but I was wondering about something. On the planet when Rodney had explained what the machine did Colonel Carter wanted to get off the planet, why did she think she needed to get off the planet? The story goes that only if nothing had been done about the feelings would they be affected, but if she knew she needed to leave then surely they had done something about it."

She finished and Daniel sighed before he answered. "It's complicated between the two of them, more so than is fair. Years ago they came very close to admitting their feelings for each other and maybe she figured that if she still felt that way then he might too, and although it's not a word I normally use when talking about Sam, she might have panicked a little." They fell silent for a moment before Daniel added, "But, that's something you should probably ask Sam herself about when she wakes up."

Teyla nodded once before she bid the two of them goodbye and left the room, heading towards her quarters for some peace and quiet.

No idea if Sam can actually manipulate her body that way but it fits with the story so I really don't care
