Sheppard sat at the table, Teyla at one side and McKay at the other. Ronan stood further back with a view on everyone else in the room. Should anything develop he had a shot on anyone in the room. Sheppard had his money on the fact that he would be able to fire first, but then again he was outside of his comfort zone too. He had seen two sentient alien species with physical forms, the Wraith and the Asgard. One ate them and the other he met as they didn't quite trust Earth and humanity with intergalactic travel yet. As the tentacle mushroom things spoke first Sheppard looked at McKay to see if any of it made sense. There was a lot of talk of dimensional, universal and temporal travel. He knew that the SGC had some scenarios where they encountered versions of themselves from an Alternate Universe however it wasn't something he had come across yet, and hopefully after this wouldn't come across again.

Before Sheppard could get a chance to speak McKay had to counter. "The fact all of us are experiencing this at the same time makes me doubt that this is some form of accident. I feel like it's more likely that something dragged us here, from our ship signatures I doubt we were all doing something similar to drag us all here. Our ships are all dramatically different after all, the only energy signature we've scanned that's the same across the board is whatever leftover radiation there is from bringing us here."

Sheppard cut in next. "I honestly don't think it's important how we got here. I think its more important that we get ourselves out of here and back to where we came from. I don't know about you guys but we have people relying on us back in our universe." 

Teyla meanwhile was retreating in her mind, making herself as small a presence as possible to try and escape the notice of this Queen that was in the meeting room. "It is true, while I am sure we all have much to offer one another I am sure we all require to make our way back to our own parallel universe-"

"Alternate."

Teyla raised an eyebrow at McKay as he interrupted. "Alternate Universe, not parallel. A parallel universe would be much like our own, as it is parallel with minor differences. If this one is drastically different then it is more likely an alternate. However, it could be parallel and we're simply so far away from home that we see no resemblance to our own reality."

Sheppard shot McKay a look. "You're not helping McKay."

"I'm just saying, for all we know this [i]could[/i] be all our home universes and we're just so far away from home we don't realise it."

"McKay." Sheppard shot daggers at the scientist. "Not the time. In all seriousness." He looked directly at the commander. "With all due respect Sir, what my superior officer is interested in is Navigational Data and basic intel of any important systems."
