Fiona Maccafferty was fresh back on terra firma. It was strange to be here; so many exciting changes were happening, but she couldn't talk about all of them. However, for the computer analyst, today was a day of business. She needed to put in her two-weeks notice, for in that time, she'd be moving permanently to England. With Michael. To have an actual, adult relationship. She loved him dearly, and while she'd miss her da, who had moved down one notch to second-most important person in her life, she knew that it was bigger and better from here. 

She was only a little sad that she didn't have a proper mum to help her with her wedding and wife-dom. She was afraid of it, if she were honestly, and she was DEATHLY afraid of being a mum herself. Her own had been unable to handle it; why should she herself be different? 

She found the meeting room, where she was going to sit in on a briefing of a top-secret group. She knew the secret-Stargate. Meropis was fully fledged now; it operated as a base and a city, and she and her beau had been instrumental in that. She let herself in, and quietly took a seat, lowering her head to the hard gaze of the Air Force general who stared at the diminuitive redhead. She gave her name as introduction. 

Dr. Fiona Maccafferty, computer analysis. She wouldn't say much else; she was a LITTLE more outgoing, but only slightly, and no less awkward than when she'd first gated to Meropis. She looked around the table; mostly military men, two females, and a trio of civillians. One of them eyed her with suspicion, but she ignored him, and sipped some tea. She was going to go to Boston tomorrow to see her Da and stepmum, but tonight, she had free time, and she planned to spend it seeing the sights.

He hadn't been at this new job at NASA long and already he'd found the fact particular things were off limits to the US's space agency more than a little off, being a part of the main line Air force, in particular intelligence and cryptology he wasn't a stranger to the compartmentalization of operations and not needing to know, he had thought NASA would be a little different minus the launching of classified satellites.

However when he had found out Earth, the US Air Force in particular had interstellar ships and this Stargate device it was still quite a shock, then again some of it wasn't new the decryption of 'allied' information was something he had done his fair share of, but the paranoia surrounding this was worse than normal.

He came into the briefing room with all the other just after someone he recognized, but surely didn't recognize him the fact she had disappeared to this Meropis place was a shock, from what he remembered of their breif encounter and what he had learned trying to find her he was surprised she had gone. "Dr. Fiona Maccafferty, computer analysis.". 

He moved around the table releaving himself of the files in his arms, handing them out to the others, he was only here at the moment as an Assistant to one of the Air Force Colonels seated around the table. Now all he had to do was survive this briefing and get a chance to talk to his Half sister.

(gonna fast forward a TINY bit; this is probs going to be a short-ish thread).

It was nearing the end of the Briefing, and it was Fee's turn to go. Maggie LeFebvre-well, she supposed it was something else, but Fee hadn't listened-had given a brief, and surprisingly subdued talk about the military requirements. The older blonde had filled out, and seemed oddly mature from the last run in that Fiona had had with her.

It was Fiona's turn to go. She began tentatively, timidly, and quietly; as she was nervous, her Irish brogue was stronger than usual, and she hoped that they would understand her.

Alright, so. Your mission at this time will be mostly scientific, and peacekeeping. My personal advice is to befriend the native animals-they're called the Koan. Secondly, treat my systems well. Thirdly, there's a bundle of Pimms and chocolates hidden in the Labs. The lucky duck to find them shall be treated on behalf of the Blacks. If you have any actual technical questions, I can take those now, or you can ask me after. She and Michael had hidden a small package in the labs, beneath a hollowed-out portion of the wall from the FIRST Koan attack. It was much like how construction workers left a faux brick or some such to honor a project.

Also, make sure your family knows that you love them before you leave. There mightn't be a chance to tie up loose ends later. It's dangerous up there sometimes. Take care of me systems; they're fragile, but will save your life. The military blokes are well skilled, mind, but it's up to the Nerds to keep things running when the going gets tough, at least in my experience. She smiled. How many times had she, Michael, Elly, and Aear...even Mik Glavish...saved the day?! MOST of them, as far as she were considered. She was still friendly with Elly, and Aear, as well, and hated Glavish less than she'd originally had.

Finally, the briefing was over, and Fee prepared herself, to stay behind a mo in case someone had questions or wanted to talk to her.
