"I call," he says, laying down two pair, "What've you got?"As ashley lays down her three twos, he winces. "Alright," he smiles, letting himself smirk "Nicely played."Looking over at the man at the computer, "Sergeant, why come on over here and give me a chance to win back some of the money I just lost. Pull up a seat". He pats a seat next to him at the table.Amoung the few other people trying to get some work done, or just get a little rest is Hinda Rampal. After she applied for a SG-team position, she's returned to her normal duties working to categorize and detail a small number of artifacts recently brought back that seem to be of a Japanese lineage. There are two Satsuma vases, one depecting a great battle against an armada of boats, and the other with cranes looking up into the sky.There are a few other small objects, such as an insense burner in the shape of a bird, but not one that Hinda recognizes, and an egg shaped container, which may have once held rice. Finally, there is an oilpainting of a fishing village, with the sky aflame above it, with men diving from the clouds into the sea, clutching tightly to their spears.As she entered the room, she had seen Dover Bishop, whom she'd met a few times before. He had worked at the pentagon, and been trying to get a transfer onto an SG-team for the last few recruiting cycles.  He was a quiet enough man, and seemed interested in finding new ways to acquire needed technology. Hinda might get the impression that his motives were more nationalistic, and less planetisic- As if his primary goal in acquiring new technology wasn't beating the Go'auld, but the Russians and the Koreans.As she worked to fill out the form that Colonel Johnson had given her the day before, a loud <a href="http://www.sq7.org/colin/sgc/Windows%20Logon%20Sound.wav" target="_blank">Windows startup sound</a> would echo through the room at full volume. Looking up briefly, she'd see Major Davis playing cards with a woman she'd met before, but never spent more than a minute with, and the sergeant with the laptop looking embarrased.</blockquote>
