"Oh." They... lied? They lied! Well possibly from their side it makes sense she supposes because they don't want to be found out and the wraith are the bad guys but it still kinda hurts to be lied to. "Oh." she says again. "I guess that makes sense." There really isn't any point in arguing about it it makes total sense that they did it and the fact that it feels bad is just her being silly. "Does that mean it's really full of ancestor technology and stuff?" she asks, letting her excitement peek through. 

"Aye, honestly we've only scratched the surface... it's a bit dangerous sometimes and we only recently got even close to having enough power to run things."

Shepard walks in holding something in his hand. "Do you have the device? I want to blow it up just to be extra sure."

"Aye," he hands it over and Sheppard walks back out.

(His voice is so good. So good!! She could listen to him talk about it for hours and actually if he's so good at doctor things maybe she could ask him for tips about doctor things and learn to be a doctor like her brother and work with him and hold his hand and actually would she even remember this stuff when she gets home and talks to Jeremy and the rest of her family and stuff and stuff maybe she should ask the notebook and also wait what is she daydreaming about the doctor whose name she also doesn't know she's supposed to be loyal and true and not a floozy or a harlot! She supposes she hasn't really picked anyone yet from the many many options (John is cute too) but she should do it soon!) 

Also, wait, what did John say? "He's going to... blow it up?" She asks, surprised. "Can you not smash it or something?" 

"The Colonel is fond of his explosions. Maybe a wee bit too much."

Oh. Well, all right. (Also: wee! Wee!! He's so cute and handsome and his accent is so good.) "It's not anything to worry about, right?" He doesn't seem particularly worried, though. Oh, she still doesn't know his name yet! "Also, hi, I don't think we were ever properly introduced," that was supposed to be clever but it just sounded silly drat "I'm Jenna, nice to meet you." She extends a hand for him to shake. (And doesn't start wondering about how his hand is going to feel, nope, because that would be silly so she isn't doing it.) 

"Carson Beckett. Good to meet you Jenna." He shakes her hand gently. His hand is soft and just a touch sweaty.

(Jenna had been hoping for more firmness or gentleness or something from his touch or at least expecting it or something but it makes sense about the stickiness at least he was just doing surgery but at least the softness is nice.) 

Also he said, his last name so she should um "Jenna Sawyer," she says, adding her own last name. "So you're, um, a doctor?" she says, and then immediately blushes a little feeling like a fool. Was that the best she could come up with what is she thinking she should be able to do better than that! 

"Aye, that I am. If you get hurt, me and my people'll be the ones patching you up."

What does she say what does she say what does she say (and the fact that he's cute and his voice is just absolutely phenomenal is not helping) "Oh, well good! Um, hopefully I don't get hurt much?" Or actually hopefully no maybe she does hope that but also that's not something she should be wanting help why can't she think of what to say to him what is going on? 

"Aye, hopefully. I suppose it'll depend on what you find yourself doing. And there'll be some luck involved."

Sheppard walks back in. "Alright, we're all set I'll trigger the detonator once we're in the air." He walks forward towards the cockpit and sits down in a chair and puts his hands on the console. The rear hatch closes. "Should be a quick and gentle flight but you might want to sit down anyway."

There's benches in the back though between Ronon's unconscious body and Becketts medical supplies there isn't a lot of room. Beckett doesn't seem to be sitting and instead grabs a loop up above.

There are also several seats up in the cockpit area with Sheppard.

(He is also cute. Help, what does she do??) Well, for now, she should do what the person who is setting off the explosive thing says and sit down. The only question is where -- there's not a lot of room back here but also she should be keeping an eye on Ronon even though he's fine (but she said she would!) but maybe she can take a look behind her from one of the seats in the front. Can she? She sits. She can, if she looks. (Ronon is fine though) Also, are there seatbelts? Maybe she should use a seatbelt? Though Carson doesn't seem to be minding and isn't even sitting so maybe she shouldn't be so worried. 

There are not seatbelts...

There's a loud humming sound and a bit of a thunk and then when she looks out the front window next they're hovering off the ground.

Sheppard takes something out of a pocket and there's a muffled boom and then he puts his hands back on the panel and they sweep around before going pretty fast right at the Stargate. She gets to experience the weird disembodied rollercoaster again and then she feels a slight jolt sending her forward as the Jumper comes to a very rapid halt. Then it's rising up through the ceiling she gets a brief look at people working on consoles with a mix of normal laptops and sci-fi looking stuff before they're through the ceiling and into a docking bay with a lot more jumpers. Sheppard brings them to a landing. "Welcome to Atlantis."

Okay, so the weird blue tunnel is normal? Or normal for the magic stargates which may or may not actually be magic but instead might be some insane technology from the "ancestors" but seems like a magic portal to her. And then, she's in Atlantis! So much stuff!! There's glowing lights and pretty alien architecture and people doing star trek things and also using really old laptops (which aren't old for them, she needs to figure out what's going on with the time difference thing at some point she needs to talk to that guy whose name she can't remember) and wood and glass and pretty things! So many pretty things she wants to look at all of them but then they go elsewhere and while it's still cool (so many more little spaceship things! A whole fleet of them, stacked up in rows and columns!) it's not the same as that room she was just in. "I'm glad to be here!" she says. "Where was that room we just came through to get here, it was really pretty! And cool! Not that this room isn't also cool there are so many spaceships in here but also there was so much stuff going on in the other place!" She can't wait to see it all! "How big is this whole place how much stuff is here what kinds of things do you need figuring out with languages or stuff that I can help with?" 

Oh no, someone who talks as fast as McKay. Her voice is nicer though. "Well, that was the gate room and the control room. For some reason, the Ancients which people from this galaxy call the Ancestors decided to put them right next to each other. That's actually caused us some problems. As for how big the city is. It's, well, a city. It's pretty big; we haven't explored even close to all of it. If you can read Ancient somehow that might help they don't use the same dialect we're used to from our galaxy. For a lot of things though you really need the Ancient Gene. I'm not sure whether I would expect you to have that since it's pretty rare. The main reason I'm here in the first place is because I'm one of the few people who have it."

Oh! Oh she can do that! Right? She... can have the ancient or ancestor gene by... by having ancestor ancestry, right? That's how that ability works? But how does she do it? She concentrates on being part ancestor but it doesn't actually work or at least in any way that she can tell how is she supposed to make it happen? "I... I think I could have the ancestor gene," she says, trying to quiet the bit of uncertainty in her voice (she's an actress or is gonna be she should be able to say things how she wants and not be silly and let a little bit of uncertainty in or anything like that). "How do we check?" Hopefully she can check with the notebook on how to do it she's not sure what she's missing she concentrates again but can't notice anything change. Drat! Drat!! There must be a way to make this work she did pick that power right? 

"Well, we're already in a good place to check that. We should wait until your friend and Carson are a ways away though." He triggers the rear hatch to open. "Sometimes people make mistakes when they try piloting a jumper for the first time."

"Thank ya for that Colonel." Once the hatch goes down a couple of people with a gurney come in and start moving Ronon onto it. "I think he's good we just need to get him stitched up and and wait for the sedatives to wear off." He says to the new helpers. "What's the status of Lieutenant Ford?"

"Still unconscious thankfully. They've got some heavy restraints on him."

"Hopefully they'll hold this time."

Jenna is torn. On the one hand, she could be trying out how to fly the ship or something and using her magical ancestor powers to do it! But on the other hand she's not sure how to actually have ancestor powers (what is she doing wrong she has to do it right) and also she did promise that she'd keep an eye on Ronon which she probably should also be doing. "Can... can it wait?" Jenna asks. "I should probably be sure Ronon is okay." And also write in the notebook to figure out what she's doing wrong.

"Of course, go take care of your friend."

"Right, thank you!" And that should give her time hopefully to check with the notebook and figure out what's going on with her ancestry powers thing. Probably. A lot has happened in the last few hours since she last talked to the notebook hasn't it. But good things, mostly! She helped! She hurries after Carson and Ronon. 

Sheppard follows after, his longer legs allowing him to keep pace without seeming quite so hurried.

Carson and the other medical people are walking quickly but walking not running.
