Essence
Chapter 9 Accents and Languages
Unaware, of the information, Jack had just got, and how he was now telling Daniel about this, you walked down the hall, like any other officer. You opened the door to Janet's office and saw her pouring over some file.
"Knock Knock" You said.
"Wha-? Oh hello Sapphire" Janet said a bit distracted.
"Whatcha lookin at?" You said walking in.
"Nothing just a report"
"From?"
"The last Sg team."
"What's it say?"
"What happened on the mission"
"And it was?"
"They went to a planet and there was a lot of mosquito like bugs there."
"Ah the evil buggers"
"You know them?"
"Ya, I followed Jack to his cabin, when I became visible for the one second, I got bit, they're nasty little buggers they are"
"Your starting to sound English"
"English? I thought I was speaking English." You said confused.
"No like how the people in England speak they have an accent"
"Oh. I've never been there, been to Paris but not there"
"You should go, Me and Sam are thinking of going"
"I wouldn't want to intrude"
"No you wouldn't be!"
"Ha ha and how do you know that? I could like get drunk and spill all of the SGC's secrets to someone"
"I could to that too you know"
"True but... ok, ok you got me. When are you guys going?"
"I dunno, its always been in the thinking about it stages"
"Well consider it in planning stages now! hmm maybe if I fly to England and see what's good and plan it from there" You started trailing off. A knock on the door came.
"Doctor, General Hammond wants to see you in his office."
She nodded. "Well I'd better go I'll see you later Sapphire"
"Bye"
You also left with her only when into the elevator and went down instead of up. You where observing all of the offices on this floor to see which one to haunt next when a crash came from one of them, you opened the door to investigate. It was Daniel's office.
"Hello?" You said cautiously.
"Hi? Come in" Came his reply. You went in and saw a broken pieces of something all over the floor. And Daniel on the floor cleaning it up.
"What happened?" You asked also helping.
"I accidentally hit it and it well fell and smashed." He said.
"Uh oh" You said, "I wasn't one of the things you just got from a planet was it?"
"No It's a replica"
"Well that's good"
"I guess, I keep breaking things though"
"Butterfingers?"
"Yup, that's me."
"Ha ha ha I wouldn't worry about it"
The pottery was cleaned up and disposed of when you saw what he was working on. It was a language that Crystal had learned and passed onto the memory. You could read it fairly good.
"Is this what you were working on?" You asked flipping through the pages.
"ya until I smashed it" He said.
"This looks familiar mind if I take a look at another replica?"
He looked surprised, but he got another just the same. You looked at it. and studied it for a few minutes.
"Anything stand out?"
"Yes actually"
"Really!"
"Yes, looks like this was some sort of letter to someone"
"What does it say?"
" Hang on I don't know what this is" You lied, You could read the whole thing,
didn't want him to be too suspicious. You found the symbol.
"I think I got it," You hoped this was convincing, " Dear, My darling Fayt, Where have you been? I've been worried. Your mother came by today, she wanted to know where you were, I told her I didn't know but you would be back later tonight. She wants us to hold the next family reunion. Please be back soon, Sophia. "
"Wow sounds like who ever Fayt was died or left this Sophia" You said after.
"Well there's that slab done, about 5 more to go" Daniel said.
"Ha ha better get started."
"Nah I don't wanna, I'm actually hungry, wanna join me?" Daniel asked.
"Sure" You said.
After a long discussion about his work and the many languages he knew. you both got there. The Cafeteria was still serving the food you had made earlier that morning. The ovens and stuff were fixed though. You grabbed your soup. and sat down with Daniel.
"So, What do you do here?" He asked. You were surprised, you hoped Daniel didn't see it.
"Anything really, where ever I'm needed" You lied.
"What have you done?"
This was getting to far, You knew you had to lie but didn't really want to lie that much. Maybe you could trust him
"Fixed some stuff, helped Sam"
"Really?"
"Yup" You said downing the last of your soup. Turns out just in time too.
O.o is this enough? hmm maybe I should put another...
