The mug of coffee in his hand fell to the floor as Jason stared at the figure that had just... appeared...

"Uhhh..." he managed, but that was about the maximum coherence he could muster.

"You dropped your coffee," Jade managed to say, surprising herself by her poise. She had not been expecting to find somebody in her tent when she appeared. In fact, she couldn't remember ever doing this before. She supposed she must have been lucky - or perhaps less eager to show off. Ami would probably be furious.

Pointing at the remains of Jason's coffee, Jade realised she didn't care. It was her decision. But perhaps tying her announcement to being a friend of Ami's hadn't been so wise.

No point crying over spilt coffee, though. She bent down and picked up the cup.

"Nothing left," she commiserated. "What brings you here?" She looked around and saw the tent was empty apart from the two of them. "Did you come to see Emma?"

"You.. buh.. I..." Jason stopped and only then realised his hand was burning a little "AH!" He shook the hand, puffing breath to try and cool it down. "Water... need water... Cold"

He was well aware that his words were hardly coherent, but he hoped that Jade could understand him.

"Oh! Your hand!" Jade said. She grabbed Jason by his other hand and dragged him out of the tent towards the washing facilities she'd discovered earlier. "There's cold water over here, come on."

Once they got there, she plunged his hand into a basin of ice cold water and held it there.

"Ten minutes," she said. "I think that's how long you're supposed to cool a burn for anyway. Got to get all the heat out before it does any more damage."

(OOC: Knew the muse couldn't stay silent ALL this time!!!)

Once the immediate pain had started to face, Jason gave Jade a thankful smile, albeit with a tinge of pain in his eyes. "Stings like a mother! But yeah, ten sounds about right."

He broke off and broke eye contact, hedging his words, trying to figure out how to ask her what he'd seen. "How did you do that?" he settle for. Oh, he had a thousand questions, but they were in public and he'd have to settle for.. a few more surrupticious questions.

Jade looked off into the distance for a moment, towards the Stargate, but everything still looked calm. SG-1 were far too professional to make a huge fuss, she hoped. They'd want to talk to Ami, and then they'd want to talk to Jade again, she was sure ( ... )

"Yeah, I guess so..." He looked down at his hand, still avoiding her eyes as he tried to work this out. He'd heard rumours of something like this, but never actually SEEN it with his own eyes. "I'm sorry that I spilled that coffee... it was real coffee, too!" He looked up with a tiny smile.

He wouldn't question her, unless she wanted to say more and he hoped that his look was enough to reassure her of his silence. "I thought you'd appreciate a home comfort, after last night."

[Jade] nohatmatt September 1 2008, 16:23:22 UTC

Jade took Jason's hand out of the water and looked at it.

"That should be fine now," she said. "And don't worry. I'm still human." She smiled. "As it happens, I met a woman called Cassandra and she gave me some coffee and a doughnut. Air Force coffee, too. I got quite a taste for it working at the SGC."

"Cassie is great" said Jason as he gingerly wiped at the reddened hand. "She knows how to make people comfortable and that's a fantastic quality..."

He looked up at Jade, relaxing at least a little "I was going to offer to give you a tour of Gatetown, but I don't know if you'd want to spend time with a lowly shrink!" he managed a wink and a little grin. "Offer's open, if you want..."

[Jade] nohatmatt September 3 2008, 16:35:41 UTC

Jade grinned.

"I'd be delighted," she said. "I've not seen very much yet, just this place and what's between here and the Stargate. I'd particularly like to see where the science is done. I'm itching to get my teeth into some physics again; not much to do on Tau although I was working on a few theories of my own there." She wondered if her notes had survived; if only she hadn't panicked and had taken them with her, but she hadn't dared teleport back after her near-instinctive flight from the attack.

OOC: Make a new thread for the tour I think

Sounds perfect... I'll try and write something tomorrow... :)
