Ok, so there are some advantages to having your work's roof leaking massively after eight hours of rainfall (which is continuing). I got to shimy into the roofspace with an engineer.
It's awesome. It's like a birdshit-strewn, gouge-your-eyes-out-if-you're-not-careful, demented version of an obstacle course. I kinda like it. Pitch black and you're dodging and weaving around pipes and air conditioning duct work. Although I did discover that if I want to scramble over something at chest height, I have to do a little run up and jump, rather than do what the engineer and just lever myself up. ;D
On the other hand, there was a serious reason we were in there. Water was flooding through the ceilings in several rooms, at serious risk of shorting out a lot of very expensive equipment. No fun for anyone if that happens. We were trying to do damage control with buckets and paper towels.
I've decided that I really want to play The Secret World if only because it's the same team as worked on Dreamfall (and if you haven't played that game, you really should).
Anyway. To the point of this post. I'm just reposting the SGA_Flashfic fic I did back in July. It didn't get much reaction, alas, but I kinda like it. It occurred to me I should pop it on here before I forget.
