Re: The Nasara (Siphon's Ship)
For a moment Aya seemed confused, then a look of understanding crossed her face.
"Colorful way of putting it, I like it."
She shrugged with regards to the age comment.
"It is odd at times I admit, but sometimes, on occasion, it gets a little downing. Some of our people used to wish for immortality, but the truth is, when you've lived as long as the two of us have, it's not just entire generations you see die off, it's entire races. It's a bit ... depressing at times."
Jack's comment got another smile from her.
"I like that outlook. I don't know much about the place you came from, but I'd wager there's a chance you might be getting to see things, and places that you'd never thought were possible to go, or that may not even exist where you came from. If that isn't exciting, I don't know what is."
Glancing outside the window showed that the tunnel had taken on a more teal colored look, clearly different from what they'd been in before. Aya meanwhile had moved them to another area, where she glanced up at what at first seemed like a decorative piece above a doorway. However, a closer glance revealed that the symbols on them were changing every second or so, and some of them what seemed like every minute or so. After a moment, Aya finally spoke again.
"Time really flies when you're having fun. Forty nine minutes into the trip already, yeah, we're definitely in Pegasus now. If Siphon's estimate was right, and he usually is, we ought to arrive at our intended destination in a little over eleven minutes. If you folks want anything to eat or drink, we ought to do that now. Knowing him, he'll want to get down there as soon as possible, particularly since we don't know much about the planet the ship was found on. It isn't one with a Stargate, so he's going to want to get readings on it as well, determine what we may be up against."
