Redial the Gate: Past and Present

[fignewton]

redial_the_gate is now up to Past and Present. sidlj's recap is up at the comm, and it looks like we'll have some good discussions there.

I'm due to post some Kira-Linea meta on the comm on Thursday, but in the meantime, I want someone to handwave one thing for me, please: How in the world could Sam (not Daniel-the-linguist!) read Linea's diary? Are we expected to believe that Linea wrote her private thoughts in English?

ETA, because some people were confused:

No, really. Plain, handwritten English!

Yes, you're right that she had no trouble working the SGC's computers. Which really goes to show that Linea was seriously brilliant.

If she can learn to speak a language that she had no real excuse to know, she might as well write it, too :)

Hee hee! I still can't wrap my head around the idea of her handwriting being exactly like ours, though.
