There is a man in the nexus.

This, on its own, is not unusual. It's possible that even with the added qualifiers making him unique, it's not going to be all that interesting to 90% of nexusgoers. Let's go through said qualifiers:

He's pushing six foot (not quite, and that half inch really kills him, not that he'd admit it), mid forties. Well built and fit for his age, which you can really tell because his jacket isn't zipped and his tshirt has been torn open. There's a handprint shaped scar over his relatively sparsely haired chest -- in between the scar tissue forming the handprint, there's a bullet wound scar, as well, over his heart. It looks recent. He's wearing a uniform that could be military, with his Atlantis expedition patch on one shoulder and the United States flag on the other. He seems to be unarmed.

He also seems to be really fucking confused. 'Where am I' doesn't begin to cover it, so he skips that one.

"Life ever given you a second chance you didn't know what to do with?"

That seems to about do it.

	She looks at him suspiciously while she struggles to remember if here is safe like other place. His words help, a little. Tho' they confuse her. She remembers enough of the before-times to know that illegal weaponry isn't taken out and shown off. Keep private. Hidden. So of course she wouldn't be allowed. So confusing! "Won't take?"

	"I don't even know who you are. Why would I take you anywhere?" he cocks an eyebrow at her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She kneels down and starts rocking back and forth a little. Okay, will stay, no running. Still scared. "Don't know, don't know, don't know. Are a colonel. Military'll pay." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Crazy, childlike, and has had a bad experience with the military. Sumner isn't sure what in God's name is going on here, but he does know he's in no fit state to try and figure it out. Anyone else might look helpless -- he just looks kind of cranky. He watches her rock, warily. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She mumbles quietly to herself until she's pushed her fear back into one of the rooms inside her head and she becomes more aware of the outside. She slowly looks back up at him. "Won't attack Sumner, if not attacked first." it's easier to forget the colonel part. (Reply to this) (Parent)
