1) Most people would choose Walter first, but not John. He hardly knows the guy beyond his reputation for being the SGC’s Radar O’Reilly, but Ronon spent some time with the guy and says he’s creepy and that’s good enough for John. His first choice would be Sgt. Siler who can tinker with the best of them, but Siler has a wife and kids who he goes home to each night, so getting him to come to Atlantis just isn’t going to happen. 2) He’d consider taking Bernard even if it seems like all he can do is announce which chevron is locked. After talking with him once, John is pretty sure the guy can out-geek Rodney when it comes to comics, tv and nerdy movies. There’s a good potential that Rodney might even lose a few arguments. Rumors hint that Jackson would pay to get rid of the guy, and obviously there’s a story behind that, but John doesn’t care. The ‘recliner of rage’ the guy kept mentioning would have to stay on Earth tho. 3) He’d love to be able to bring Major Davis to Atlantis. The guy can get things done whether it’s scrounging supplies, organizing an evac or negotiating with aliens. John is pretty sure General O’Neill won’t let him go. 4) There’s a scientist named Coombs that might make a good addition to the team. John doesn’t know much about him either, but he listened to the man give one of his co-workers lip and guy can snark with the best of them. He’s pretty sure Coombs would irritate the hell out of McKay. 5) Even tho she’s technically no longer part of the SGC, John would love to steal the head lunch lady. She can make institutional cans of over-processed food taste like manna from heaven. General Hammond stole her first and took her with him when he left for DC. When he passed away, Col. Caldwell inherited her and now she works on the Daedalus. He thinks it’s just talk about the Colonel being ‘more-than-friends’ with her, but when he mentioned her to Lorne, the marines made up a list of men who’d be willing to ‘pay court’ to the lady if she’d take over the Atlantis cafeteria. Hell, he’d be willing to shave his chest, oil up and wear a thong while giving her a pedicure if she’d take the job.
