Chapter 14 - The Human Story - now up!
Excerpt:
"Most of our allies are human, or descended from humans. Some others look far different. But I am convinced we are all far more similar than we are dissimilar. Details of what SG-1 and the other exploratory teams have achieved over the last fifteen years will prove that to you, and we only need to look to our allies the Hebridians - who are comprised of two totally different species - to realise that no matter where you go, people are people. Even our allies that are a different species to us share our basic humanity.
"I know I've talked for longer than you were expecting, but I'm hoping that this has given you a little taste of the more human side of what we've all been doing these past several years. I won't be taking questions at this point as there will be other speakers, but I would like to sincerely thank you for your time."
With that, Daniel brought his winding speech to a close, and joined SG-1. Together they posed for photographs, arms around each others shoulders in a show of complete unity as a myriad of camera flashes bombarded them.
Battle walked up to the lectern to inform the press of the rest of the day's schedule as SG-1 filed off, and he made sure to shake each of their hands as they left, before starting the run-down of the schedule.
SG-1 arrived back in the waiting room to a round of applause from the chair operators.
"Dr Jackson, that was some speech...The press liked that a lot more than either Strom's or Park's," John smiled.
"It was a very impressive speech," Teal'c intoned, a small smile on his features.
"You're an alien?" Dave said in shock.
"Indeed!" Vala responded on his behalf, "We're very alieny."
