"And might still be recovering after waking up without any memories of the past four years," Ed replies with a nod. "No, we'll... keep that option in reserve for now. Besides, if we did that, they still wouldn't have a way of getting to us."
Kat snaps her fingers. "Yes they would! The Stargate can be used for time travel! It requires very careful timing, but that could work."
"How do you mean?" Ed asks.
"Using the Stargate as a TARDIS requires a solar flare," Kat replies. "To be specific, SG-1 and Al would have to travel through the Stargate at exactly the same time as a solar flare begins to erupt from the Sun. It's a bit hit-and-miss, but it's the only thing I can think of that fits where SG-1 are in their timeline."
A smile slowly draws across Ed's face. "Is there a way we can look up the dates of solar flares in the near future for them?"
"Definitely; all sorts of government and civilian agencies keep databases of them."
Ed turns to April. "Is there a way you can use your abilities to get in touch with Al in a way that wouldn't frighten him? Dreams, maybe? Or for me to talk to him through you? So that he can hear my voice, I mean?"
