Why This Must Be Read: This one should be read because it takes the best of the action/adventure element of the series and combines it with great character moments and humor. The character voices are spot on for early in the series and the author captures the complex personality of Elizabeth quite well. Go read! Enjoy!
“Doctor McKay?” Elizabeth said sharply.
He looked up. “Hmm?” He glanced around. “Oh, yes, terribly sorry. I just got involved in trying to activate this device. Lost track of the time.”
Major Sheppard leaned over to peer at the pad. “What is it?”
“I don’t know exactly. But it’s fascinating.” He flipped it back and forth in his hand and smiled at it. “The size of a credit card, but it’s self-powered. It seems to have a variety of functions. I’ve been walking all over the city with it, and everywhere I go it causes different messages to appear.”
Elizabeth rolled her eyes. “All over the city?”
John looked skeptically at the card. “I hope none of the messages were things like, ‘I am a grenade’.” He glanced up at Rodney, who waved his hand dismissively.
“Please, do you think I’m an idiot? No, mostly the readouts say things that loosely translate as ‘All Clear’ or ‘No Danger’…or possibly ‘No Data’,” he grimaced to himself and then looked around the table. Zelenka was glowering at him.
“I thought we had decided not to try to activate any of the devices except under controlled conditions.”
Rodney huffed, “This is just a little one, and it specifically says it isn’t dangerous. Besides, it’s so…” he motioned at the gently glowing symbols on the surface.
“Pretty?” Elizabeth offered.
“Cool?” John said with a smirk. He reached out for the card. Rodney hesitated and then passed it to him. John turned it over in his hands. “Yeah, cool.”
Elizabeth sighed. “I’m glad you are both excited about the…whatever it is, but let’s try to keep in mind that we’ve gotten in trouble before by activating devices without knowing their full purpose.” She raised an eyebrow at them and was rewarded with a sulking glare from Rodney.
