There's nice detailing in the narrative of this story, but sometimes the narrative stalls a little because the wrong word is used, or rather, the same word is used in close succession. Such as here: "Granted it wasn’t far to group all the scientists into one group like that." Twice the use of group. By the way, there is also a typo in that sentence (far). There were quite a few typos like that in this chapter, along with some missing words. Did you read over this chapter before posting it? Because these were the kind of errors that spell check doesn't pick up on and there were too many to just be overlooked (there was nearly one per paragraph).

Also, in some paragraphs there is narrative and dialogue, but the main actor of the narrative is not the same as the person who spoke the dialogue. Example:
“What exactly happened here?” She looked up at him, surprised to see him.
That looks to me like She (Dora) asked what had happened, whereas the intention (and context) is that he (John) asked what happened. It would be better to use an extra paragraph break here:
“What exactly happened here?”
She looked up at him, surprised to see him.

It's best to have just one actor per paragraph, unless there is no way that the different actors and their actions could be confused.

Other than that, it's a nice easy beginning that flows nicely.

Yay, an update!

I'm still slightly confused with the flow of things but I love baby fics. Perhaps you can clarify things by not adding too much technology info, it's just a bit overwhelming, but oh so much fun.

hm, interesting
I do believe Ancient sounds a lot like Latin. Which doesn't help a whole lot because no one on Earth speaks classical Latin anymore, but from my prof's understanding linguists have a very good grasp on how the vocalizations track back though.

this is really good. i think rodney would have been more shocked by the whole "the room impregnated them" situation. the reference to fanfiction was hilarious! plz update really soon, cause i have to know what teyla, elizabeth, and ronon think.

I am sorry, but this just looks like a cheap rip off of Atlantis Sprout by Hananian to me. And as this was published AFTER chapter 2 of Atlantis Sprout was posted...and your Stuck also looks to be another idea rip off. I usually don't leave scathing reviews, but it was just so obvious to me that I had to point it out.
