Vala was waiting out side of the infirmary with General Jack O'Neill. Daniel was inside being thouroughly checked over by Dr. Lam.
"First time waiting for Daniel to be cleared?" the General broke the silence.
"Um, yeah." Vala admitted nervously. Vala didn't know what to make of the General. She had met him a few times but hadn't gotten to know him until they were returning with the Odyssey. "Does it ever get easier?"
"Nope. Daniel has been getting into trouble for ten years and is responsible for most of my grey hair. I know he hasn't really spent more time in there than Carter and myself but some how when it is him I worry more." Jack answered.
"What if he . . . isn't himself?" Vala worried softly.
Jack gave her a look. "You obviously haven't really read his file?"
"He won't let me. Why? What would it tell me that would reassure me now?" Vala asked.
"Daniel's brain has been messed with more times than I can count and he has always came back to himself afterwards." Jack answered.
"Tell me about it." Vala pleaded to hear more so she could quit worrying.
"Well there was the time we all switched bodies. Daniel had first been switched with this old man named Ma'chello. Then Teal'c and I had switched and in order to save us all Carter played a game of Round Robin with all of us in order to get us back. A year later a device the old man left behind infected him and everyone thought he was crazy. Daniel was even locked up in the loony bin for a while. Then there was his Ascensions. You knew about that right?" Jack asked.
"Yeah. He explained it to me after we met Morgan Le Fey. So how does Ascension affect his mind?" Vala inquired.
"Ascension means that all the knowledge of the Ancients is in your mind. Well when he descended it was all erased along with a good portion of his other memories. He eventually recovered the ones from before the Ascension. At least that is what happened the first time. He didn't mention what happened to the Ancient knowledge the second time. His memories weren't gone. Then there was the time that a dozen survivors of an alien ship were downloaded into his mind. He was his old self as soon as they were removed. Anyway the point is that Daniel's brain has handled other people in his mind before. One old man Merlin or not is not a problem for Daniel's brain." Jack replied.
"Oh. Yeah. Daniel will be fine." Vala said with her confidence improving.
Dr. Lam came out of the infirmary just then. She looked from the General to Vala and finally addressed the General.
"Daniel appears to be fine. His MRI matched the last one he had. Whatever Merlin did to him and the experience of being a Prior haven't so much as left a mark on his brain. I would, however, like to keep him over night for observation." The good Doctor explained.
"Can I see him?" Vala asked. Jack gave her a look so she corrected, "Can we see him?"
"Of course." Dr. Lam answered. She chuckled at the sight of the General and Vala raced each other into the infirmary.
