"Hey, guys - you want to keep it down a little over there?" Jon called out as he approached. Daniel's frown of reproach was so welcome, he almost grinned like an idiot. It had been too long, and there were so many other facial expressions to reacquaint himself with too! "Ok, maybe not you Daniel, but Dr McKay there has no sense of volume. Here, brainfood for the supergeeks - I know it's not quite coffee, but catch!"
He threw a couple of small cans of Coke to his favorite archaeologist and the man who believed himself more brilliant than his favorite astrophysicist, then eyed up Vala in all her leather-attired glory.
"You know what, Daniel?" he continued, whipping an apple from another pocket and smirking at his old friend. "Captain Kirk had nothing on you."
Vala gave the young man a searching look and turned to Daniel, "Who's that?" she asked shiftily.
Daniel sighed, "Jon Murphy, meet Vala..." he paused and motioned for Vala to supply her name.
"Malduran." She said after a quick pause.
"Malduran." Daniel finished decisively, turning back to a drifting McKay. "Rodney, pay attention."
"Oh, what?" Vala interupted snidely, "You'll out your planet's most prized secret infront of a fifteen year old, but you wont let me heal a gravely injured man? How is that helpful, again?"
"Fifteen?" Jon growled.
"See!" Rodney exclaimed at the same time. "I knew you were aliens. 'Your planet', nothing escapes Docter Rodney McKay! I have a mind like a steal trap." He finished triumphantly.
"I just told you that, Mckay." Daniel stressed tiredly.
Vala went to add something but Daniel sushed her with a glare.
"Oh, then by all means, Docters, continue." She snipped.
It was all Jon could do not to gape. "You think we're not on Earth?"
McKay sneered at him, though his eyes were still a little wild.. and concussed. Huh, figures, he grumbled inwardly as he raised his hands in frustration.
"Ok, unless the Asgard picked up an entire Boeing 777 and dropped it in someone else's ocean - and with the Southern Cross starting to glimmer up there, I severely doubt that - the majority of the poor souls on this beach boarded Oceanic Airlines Flight 815 this morning, flying from Sydney to LA."
"This. Is. A. Holodeck!" McKay's voice escalated with each word. "She is an alien, and he is.. anywhere but Earth.. and you.. you I have no idea who the hell you're meant to be, you little pipsqueak!"
Jon raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? Pipsqueak? Daniel, did he just call me a pipsqueak?"
Biting his lip (was that a laugh he was covering?), Daniel nodded. "Uh, yes.. Jon."
"Well you are little small," Vala interjected pointedly. "And it's such a wonderful word. Like.. nincompoop

OOC: *whimper* The universe may hate Jon but the internet hates me more. I've had to re-write this post three times because of my currently slow-as-snot connection... That repetitive thumping you hear is me banging my head against the Wall of Frustration

(Okay,) Daniel thought, (Let's convince the paranoid, amnesiac physicist that he's being paranoid and has amnesia. Riiiiiight. Here goes nothing.)
Daniel took a deep breath, "I want you to listen to me very carefully, McKay. That happened nearly four months ago. And you did not blow up Atlantis, you staged an explosion to look like Atlantis blew up and submerged the city. Then you, and Dr. Weir, Colonel Shephard, Dr. Beckett and several other personnel came back to earth, on the Daedalus, to give a full debriefing to the SGC, the Joint Chiefs and the International Committee. You also reviewed personnel files for people to transfer or recruit for Atlantis

Vala snorted. "The only people the Tok'ra have ever helped is themselves." She said, tucking the healing divice back into her blouse. She couldn't help but notice that that loud man, McKay, watched her intently as she did so. Even the teenager was showing a little more decorum then him, though he didn't act like any teenager Vala had ever met. "Do I get a formal; introduction, or am I not noble enough for your high and mighty friends, Daniel

Jon stuffed his hands in the pockets of his board shorts and rocked back on his heels, mulling over the possibilities.
"Fact is, even if the SGC finds you guys they're not going to just beam you up to that fancy new ship." Her expression convinced him elaborate. "Hello? 50 odd people here who don't know anything about aliens, spaceships, Stargates and the like. Even if you're the only ones who vanish, what do we say to the rest of them?"
"The truth?" Vala sniffed huffily, smacking Daniel on the arm. "You're always implying that I should be more honest, how about giving me a practical demonstration?"
"Oh yes, because stealing the Prometheus is so much better than protecting the sanity of an entire planet," Daniel bit back

Daniel tried not to laugh at Jon's very obvious indignation. At least his mind had finally settled down and was reconciling the Jack/Jon issue - provided that Daniel didn't think too much about it.
Still that left them with the problem of one very amnesiac and loud mouthed astrophysicist.
"McKay, have you seen a doctor?" Daniel asked quietly.
"Is that some kind of a joke? You tell me we've crashed on an island somewhere, probably in the middle of the very big Pacific Ocean and now you ask me if I've seen a doctor?"
Daniel rolled his eyes. "There are two doctors who survived the crash. They've been seeing to the injured. If you can walk over to the infirmary tent, why don't you ask for Dr. House, all right?"
Dismissing McKay for the moment, Daniel touched his radio and signaled to Sgt. Blaise, "Blaise, it's Jackson. When you get a minute, I really need to talk to you about a few . . . things"I'm getting too old for this," Daniel muttered tiredly

Dr. Jackson's voice crackled in Blaise's earpiece.
Blaise climbed to his feet and walked away from the fire, where Ash was spinning another episode in his seemingly-endless tall tales about fighting undead zombies for Michael's kid. The stories were preposterous and shamelessly self-promoting, but weirdly entertaining. In the absence of comrades to BS with or television, they were the best thing going.
Reaching up to activate his mike, Blaise replied, "Copy that, Dr. Jackson. I'm on my way."
He settled the strap of the P90 a little more comfortably over his shoulder, looked around until he spotted Jackson and McKay and headed in their direction.
