She nodded after a moment, and gestured for him to sit across the table, setting her book down. "Not at all. I've got the rest of my time here to finish this book. That is, if you'd like to stay and talk?"

"From what I have heard, Atlantis is also something of an attractor of trouble." It was not really a surprise to Teal'c, given the secrets Atlantis held that many other races wanted for themselves. "Yet I do not believe any place has no threat of extinction. We must expect the unexpected," he said with a completely straight face.

ooc: It's entirely possible I had a reason when I started the thread, but can't remember what it was for the life of me now.
