Has anyone found a pod containing someone that was supposed to be dead? That they knew to be dead.

( river asks more out of curiosity than anything, out of trying to understand and gain more knowledge on the pods, on who and how they were brought here. she also can't deny that small piece of hope that comes with the question, of wanting to see someone that she couldn't (shouldn't) be able to see again )

That's very true.

Awake? Yes. A couple of them.

[retrorsum]

How many others are still in the pods?

[stargatemedic]

I should say that the ones I know are from where I'm from. The same... organization. I'd never met them before, really, so we had to meet here.

If you're asking how many more people I know up there? At least a hundred.

[retrorsum]

That's quite the number.

( though if river thought about the number of people she met, just on chance encounters, the number would probably end up in the thousands )

It certainly attests to how much space and power they have.

[stargatemedic]

What about you? How many people are up there for you?

[retrorsum]

One.

( unless you counted every regeneration of her husbands. there's also possibly two more people there but river hasn't found them yet -- she's not certain if she wants to look in case they're not there )

[stargatemedic]

You only knew one person back home that could be up there?

[Granted, TJ hasn't seen all hundred or so people's pods, she just assumes they're there somewhere.]

[retrorsum]

One person that I'd want to find.

[stargatemedic]

And who is that?

[retrorsum]

My husband.

[stargatemedic]

I'm sorry.

[retrorsum]

I know that he's there. I also don't believe he'll stay in stasis.

[stargatemedic]

That's a good thing, right?

[retrorsum]

For us, yes.

( but not for them. his response might be tamer than river's but there would be two of them. hold on to your secrets and evil plans )

[stargatemedic]

For us? But not good for someone else?

[retrorsum]

That depends entirely on the truth of this situation.

[stargatemedic]

I don't know what you mean.

[retrorsum]

I don't believe what we've been told about why we're here.

[stargatemedic]

Why.

One storm affecting multiple universes at multiple points in time? Not likely.
