Sheppard is in the Bar, sitting at a table and having himself a drink. There's been no more backlash from his doppelganger causing nightmares around the place and for that he's ever grateful. He'd rather keep himself in tact.

Though the Colonel is a bit bored which might not be a good thing. Not a good one at all. Which is why Bar provides him a crossword puzzle to go along with his beer. Hey, it worked for him. That's all that really mattered.

Daniel wasn't sure how to respond to either of them.

"He is a bit like McKay in that aspect." He says with a slight shrug.

"How is he not?" asked Todd.

Daniel was slack jawed for a moment.

"I am nothing like Mckay!"

"You are in the aspect that you think if he touches you he'll feed on you. You're treating him like the enemy and considering that he's helped Atlantis and kept me from dying, he's not really the enemy. Now Michael and the others on the other hand are a different story."

Todd backed up John by staring Daniel down.

Daniel groned.

"You do have a point," said Daniel.

He held his hand out to Todd.

"Yeah, I know I do, Dr. Jackson. Besides, Todd here knows that if anything happened to my friends on his account I'd deal with it."

Personally.

Todd shook Daniel's hand and nothing happened.

"Of all the humans I know, he is the only one I consider a brother," explained Todd, "I will not cross him."

Daniel smiled.

"See, Dr. Jackson. Harmless. What'd I tell ya?" He asks with a grin. "And I consider him the same. Might as well, I'm estranged from my real one."

"You have a brother?" asked Todd.

Daniel looked worried.

"Yeah, I have a brother."

He gives a slight shrug as if the information wasn't really worth it.

"He did everything dad told him to."

"I don't understand," said Todd, "He is your brother, why do you not speak with him?"

Daniel pursed his lips.

"Because we have different views and he thinks I'm in it for the money."

Todd growled.

Daniel took this as a good time to sip coffee.

"Hey, no growling big guy. He's on Earth and I'm not. All the better for the both of us."

"Brothers should not treat each other like that," said Todd, "But then again, most hives do not get along very well."

Daniel put his cup down.

"Well, they've got a Queen who is kind of a bitch but you know."

He gives a slight smirk.

"Besides, I've got you for a brother. What more could a human ask for?"

Then he looks over at Daniel.

"Need any help?"

"It is an honor," said Todd.

"With what?" asked Daniel.

He gives a nod to Todd before looking to Daniel again.

"Anything. I'm bored."

Hence the crossword puzzle.

"How good is your Ancient?"

Daniel indicated the pile of papers and books, some of which were old.

"My Ancient. It's okay. Not as good as you or some of the other people in Atlantis but you know."

He could try to help.

"Don't worry about it," said Daniel, "This is only fun for some of us."

He leaned back in his chair.

"There are so many things I would like to ask Todd about the Wraith," said Daniel.

"Of course. You and McKay don't know how to have real fun."

Pause.

"Then maybe you should ask him if you can."
