You, uh, you really think this is a good idea? This whole "Alien in my body" thing?

Fine. You don't have to do it but, after the Cadman thing, I really think you owe me.

Huh. You have a point there.

But this was not what I signed up for! And you can't blame this one on me! She's not an ancient and it was YOUR idea!!!

Heh. It's way more fun when you're the one watching the awkward out of body/in my body kiss.

This really wasn't part of the plan. I should have seen it coming but really not part of the plan. Must. Save. John.

Colonel. We have to save Sheppard.

And Weir, right? Sheppard and Weir?

Yes, yes, Weir. Whatever. But SHEPPARD! We have to save Sheppard, damn it.

You know, you two lay it on pretty thick for a couple of co-workers.

That's because we work closely together within, uh, within your heteronormative military standards. Not that I wouldn't mind if...uh. Right. Never mind.

How's your progress?

Look. I don't know what you're trying to imply but I'm very frustrated with your insinuations!

THERE IS NOTHING GOING ON BETWEEN THE LT. COLONEL AND I! NOT EVEN IF I REALLY - Uh. Right. Nevermind.

I'm going to say this once and only once. I'm not asking. You're not telling. I don't care. So KEEP YOUR VOICE DOWN.

Ah. Yes. Right. Okay. I will cease outing my military crush in the middle of the gate room. Good idea.

Telya. It's me. And I care about you. You must sense that.

Ah. Now I am sure you are not Sheppard. Sheppard cares only for McKay.

It's that obvious?

Quite. And I believe McKay cares for you, as well.

Yeah, you think so? Really cares for me?

I love you, you idiot! Now let me get around to saving you. Again.

He loves me!

I love you, too, Rodney. Now get me out of here. We have a heteronormative co-worker relationship to turn on it's ear.

Ridiculously attractive people in absurd situations, indeed.
