Roswell, New Mexico In Character

... that moment when you have an entire conversation with someone on the portal team before you realize they were tripping the whole time.

It's been three weeks. Somehow my journals - which I thought I'd left at the camp - are here. And while I'm really grateful for that, I have some questions. Not sure this is the best place for them but here we go.

You have an Einstein-Rosen-Podolski Bridge opening in the middle of the desert! But there's nothing around it and there's no catalyst!

It's a literal rip in the fabric of space, joining one point here to another world on a different dimensional vibrational frequency.

From what I remember at the wormhole in the desert, there isn't any natural or man-made stabilization factor that is causing the rip to open over and over and over. But for there to be a wormhole like that you need one, because rips in space - and I guess time in this case too? - they don't just happen. Something causes them.

For us it was the Timer, the sliding machine. It used an electrical field to both make the rip and stabilize the wormhole so that it didn't kill us. And we never got the same world more than once... well we did once, but we had help.

How is this happening? Has anyone looked into electrical field data for the desert area? How many times have people from the same world shown up independently from one another?

I was just in Kansas. The welcoming group explained what they could. It's... not the strangest thing I've heard, but why? And what happens to those you were with when you're brought here?!

We were in the middle of something and if I vanished then he's on his own-

In a nest! Shit. He wouldn't go in on his own. He's smart. Especially if you vanished in front of him...

Never been more glad I don't poison my body with frivolous calories.

I'm halfway convinced that my customers are all insane.

Portal Team]
We've got another anomaly.

So. A new arrival went to her apartment and found a baby.

The parent of said child hadn't arrived yet.

He's there now. But. The infant was in the apartment before the dad was even there.

I don't know which moronic idiot kidnapped me, but they seem to have forgotten that Roswell is NOT where Area 51 is located. You imbeciles had better let me contact the mountain before Sheppard and Ronon decide to blow up your plans.

Which, knowing those two, will most likely be literal blowing up.
