Ever wonder about the alt-team stranded on the reality-jumping Daedalus? In this spine-chilling story Alt-Rodney explains what happened...to the bitter end.


Excerpt:

If you haven't seen a flash yet, LEAVE IMMEDIATELY!!!!!

If you're still reading this, then you were most likely too stupid to leave when you read the first line telling you to run for your life. Or, I suppose, it's moderately possible that you found this too late. In which case, perhaps bad luck is your sin instead.

You're trapped now. Might as well get comfortable.

Everything on the alternate reality drive is in ~/AUD. Good luck.

Quick summary for you: We came onto Daedalus weeks ago after finding her drifting crewless above Atlantis. We got trapped. I've spent the entire time trying to figure out how to get us home, hoping to succeed before we starved.

I failed.

"This is incredible. The ship is totally deserted."

"Ronon, go make sure. Teyla, you're with me to the bridge. Rodney..."

"Yeah, yeah. Engineering. Just don't break anything on the bridge, ok? We might need some of it... Holy shit. What was that?"
