'…'

'You know, Teal'c, when one answers the phone, it's customary to use a greeting like "hello", "hi" or "ahoy-hoy",' Cassie said, laughingly.

'I am not familiar with the term "ahoy-hoy", Teal'c replied.

'Ask Jack,' Cassie said. 'So… how's everything?'

'Everything is fine. And how are you, Cassandra Frasier?'

'Oh, you know... college…'

'No, I do not,' Teal'c replied.

'Of course. It's… interesting. My room mate is a bit… odd, my classes are boring, and there aren't even any hot guys in any of them!'

'Indeed,' Teal'c replied.

'Yeah…' Cassie said. There was a moment of awkward silence. 'And… well…'

'Yes?' Teal'c promted.

'Never mind, forget it.'

'Is something the matter, Cassandra Frasier?' Teal'c asked.

'Not really. I just… you know… miss you all. And mom.'

'We all miss Doctor Frasier; she was a good friend, and a good mother.'

'Thanks. Teal'c, when you first arrived at Earth, did you ever miss your family and friends?' Cassie asked, in a serious tone.

'I still do, my friend,' Teal'c answered.

'Yeah…'

'Indeed. But remember, we will always be there for you, Cassandra Frasier.'

'Thanks, big guy,' Cassie said, smiling to herself. 'So, tell me about your latest mission…'
