What is the Amalgaverse? The Amalgaverse is a fictional shared universe of fictional SF universes that will serve as the setting for a series of missions that will play out as episodic adventures in the style of the beloved ship-based sci-fi shows of the 90's. How will these missions play out? The missions will play out in the form of an online choose-your-own-adventure format with fan voting driving the narrative. YOU choose the missions. YOU select the away teams. YOU make the decisions that shape each adventure. How elaborate is each mission? Each mission has been designed like an episode of sci-fi television complete with twists, turns, shocks, and surprises. Five acts. At least five beats per act. A beginning, middle, and ending. Just like the old days! How many missions have you designed? Since these missions will play out like episodes from those beloved ship-based sci-fi shows of the 90's, I've structured a similar rollout. Ten missions to start followed by a brief hiatus after which the back half ten episodes will unfold. 20 missions/episodes in total. That will be our first season. And depending on fan response, a second season could be in the cards. This seems like a lot of work. Why are you doing this? I'm tired of crafting stories (pitches, pilots scripts, series bibles) that never see the light of day, always subject to the whims of gormless executives. Science fiction is a tough sell. Far future sci-fi, tougher still. Far future ship-based sci-fi, toughest of all. But that's my jam. And I've missed it. So this allows me to do what I do best, exercise those creative muscles, and hopefully give SF fans something to look forward to with every mission. For entertainment purposes only of course. But, characters aside, couldn't you just turn these stories into a script you can try selling or a book you could publish? Wouldn't that be more lucrative? Yes, absolutely, but, as I said, the prospect of selling a far future ship-based sci-fi series is so remote that I'd prefer the fun and the satisfaction of this exercise over the prospect of writing yet another script that will just end up on a digital shelf. And, yes, I could write a book - but that would require more time and effort than I am willing to commit at this time. Okay, enough questions. When do we get started? The adventures begin Monday, September 21st at 12:01 E.T., here on X. Set a reminder and turn on notifications so you don't miss a beat!

First Mission: The Ghost Ship (Part 1) #Amalgaverse You've decided to investigate a seemingly derelict freighter broadcasting an emergency beacon. O’Neill shuttles the rest of the away team - Daniel Jackson, Rommie, and Rodney McKay - to the ghost ship, threading the jumper into the open bay and setting down inside. “Just like riding a bike,”he says with some satisfaction. “A twenty-six-foot-long, fifteen-and-a-half-foot-wide bike with forward-mounted drone launchers and a cloak.” But you quickly realize there’s a problem. The hangar doors are jammed open to space, and won’t cycle shut. What’s your next move? Rommie suggests forcing the doors shut manually. Her android frame handles extended vacuum without a problem, so she can just walk out and crank them closed by hand. It’s slow and exposed, but the sure fix. “The catch isn’t the vacuum,”she adds. “It’s the anomaly. Those energy pulses hit while I’m out there, and they could knock me offline before the job’s done." And then, catching Daniel staring: “What?” Daniel pops his eyebrows, considering: “Nothing. You just remind me of someone." McKay pitches running a hard line from the jumper to the dead servos. It will power the doors shut, but potentially bleed some of the jumper’s reserves. “Potentially?”asks O’Neill. “Potentially - possible,”he non-commits. “More or less. Ish." O’Neill considers just leaving the bay open and heading in directly through the interior airlock given they’re already wearing EV suits. "We're dressed for the occasion." It’s the fastest way in, but their ride ends up parked inside an airless bay, so any retreat means crossing vacuum again. Whose advice do you take? Choose!

First Mission: The Ghost Ship (Part 5) - "Skitters" #Amalgaverse “Hi,”says Daniel, stepping out of hiding and freezing the scavengers in mid-step. “Welcome to the Waldorf Astoria.” The scavenger leader’s eyes narrow, flit left and right suspiciously. “Where are your people?” “Oh, around,”says Daniel glancing about. “Listen, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this ship’s core is about to go critical, so I would strongly suggest you reconsider your long-term plans here.” “Do you now?”asks the leader. A beat. Then: “Kel!” The merc to his left moves, the slightest of shift of his weapon and – POK! – a single shot to the chest. He goes down. Another merc reacts, swinging his weapon wide – POK! – single shot; he goes down too. Then, a barrage of P-90 fire sends them all scattering for cover as Daniel ducks out of range. The mercs respond, projectiles and energy beams glancing off the hull. “When it rains, it pours,”notes Jack. “With occasional intermittent hail!”adds Daniel as they return fire. Minutes pass. Jack tries contacting Rommie and McKay, but all he gets is static, the anomaly’s pulses interfering with comms. The barrage continues, back and forth, eating into time they don’t have. Jack and Daniel are pinned down. A lull in the shooting. Suddenly, Daniel perks up. “What’s that?” He throws a look to Jack who strains to listen and hears – A distant skittering of mechanical legs growing louder and closer. Daniel’s eyes widen at the sight of – Dozens of spider-like bots rounding the corridor behind them, skittering across the floor, walls, and ceiling. Jack and Daniel barely have time to react, ducking to shield their faces. But the bots scramble over and past, straight for the mercs who immediately turn tail and run, retreating into an aft section – that seals shut behind them. Jack and Daniel poke their heads up. WTF? At which point Maia, Rommie, and McKay round the corner. Maia says she’s bought them time. Now they need to abandon ship. Jack throws a look to Rommie who tells him: “She was telling the truth.” Daniel jumps to his feet and goes to the utility room holding Rhea. Jack raises his P-90 as Daniel opens the door. The room is empty. Not to belabor the point but WTF?! Maia escorts the away team to the hangar and the waiting puddle jumper. There, she tells them she will seal the bay to further delay the scavengers so the team can make good their escape. She’s staying behind as her final duties will be in service to the ship, and Traugott Corporation. What do you do? A – Convince her to come along. She’s proven herself. B – Take advantage of her offer and get out of there. No time to waste. CHOOSE! [Check below for our Previously On recap - or click through the quote tweets for every stage of our adventure to date.

First Mission: The Ghost Ship (Part 3) #Amalgaverse [An away team made up of Colonel Jack O’Neill, Dr. Daniel Jackson, the android/AI Rommie, and Dr. Rodney McKay has been dispatched to investigate a seemingly derelict freighter. On board, they discover a service android named Maia who offers to accompany them to the bridge – but first they must make a detour to avoid a potentially compromised section of the ship.] The away team waits as Rommie checks the forward compartment. Moments later she returns and confirms Maia was telling the truth. Had they unsealed it, they’d have been hit with a wave of hard radiation that would have shut her down, fried their comms and sensors, and slightly irradiated their testes. Maia says nothing. She merely turns and continues on her way. You follow, taking the detour around the compromised section, and finally reach the bridge. Its doors slide open on Maia’s neural command, giving the team full access. Maia and Rommie immediately get to work, isolating the damaged decks, restoring life support, and killing the emergency beacon before it draws any unwanted company. Rommie notes that the ship’s database has been corrupted by whatever it encountered out there, but she has turned up something very interesting. When the atemporal entity entered this reality, knocking the Waldorf Astoria out of FTL, the freighter’s sensors recorded and analyzed the event as it happened. According to this analysis, the rift it passed through carries the same harmonics as the residual traces of their own crossings into this universe. This could well be their key to getting home. But the data is fragmentary and corrupted, and it will take some time to decipher. Daniel, at that point, reminds them of the lone life sign a few sections over, still flickering but now growing fainter. He wants it made the priority. Maia informs them that the Waldorf Astoria was on an unmanned long haul run, and warns this life sign is likely the entity she warned them about. She wants to accompany them but there is a much more pressing issue that demands her attention. One of the consoles reveals the anomaly’s pulses have fried the core’s automated containment and regulation, and the reactor is climbing towards a breach, maybe less than an hour from critical. It can’t be stopped from the bridge. Someone has to head to engineering and vent the drive by hand. What do you do? A) Wait for Rommie to decipher the corrupted database and retrieve a potential clue to the way home. B) Investigate the life sign. Reach it before it fades, whatever it turns out to be. C) Go to engineering and vent the drive. Save the ship. D) Split the team. O’Neill’s call. He and Daniel will investigate the life sign, McKay accompanies Maia to engineering, while Rommie stays on the bridge to decipher the corrupted data. Everything gets done, but it does spread them thin. CHOOSE! [END OF ACT THREE] Check below for our Previously On recap - or click through the quote tweets for every stage of our adventure to date.

On their way to check out an ebbing containment field, they encounter a sealed door. Rommie informs them the area beyond is exposed to space, but it's the most direct route to their destination.] The decision is made to unseal the hatch. Rommie locks down the compartment, the hatch behind them sliding shut on the downed bot where it fell. “Hold on tight,”she advises. Everyone braces. Then, she unseals the door. The air tears out of the section and takes everything loose with it. A couple of widgets whip past. McKay’s eyes go wide as a pocket wrench comes tomahawking straight at him. He flinches, but - CLANG - Rommie’s forearm snaps up and knocks it off course, sending it spinning past them, out into the blackness of space. The wind dies. The team steps through and stops. The grating ahead is torn away wall to wall, a ragged gap in the deck a good ten to twelve feet across, open to the stars below. Beyond it, intact floor runs to a sealed hatch. Silence. Then Daniel: “So. A hop, skip, and a jump? “More like a spring, jump, and a prayer,”counters McKay. Rommie says McKay has it about right, prayers aside. The gravity on this deck is running a fraction of normal, so a hard run-up carries further than it would groundside, and there’s little pull to drag them down before they clear the gap. The leap isn’t the problem The landing is. The instant boots hit the grating on the far side, the mag locks fire and anchor them, before their own momentum can carry them into the bulkhead.

First Mission: The Ghost Ship (Part 1) #Amalgaverse An away team made up of Colonel Jack O'Neill, Doctor Daniel Jackson, Doctor Rodney McKay, and the android/AI Rommie has been dispatched to investigate a derelict freighter. After parking the puddle jumper in the ship's hangar, the team discovers that the bay doors are jammed open to space, forcing a call on how to proceed. They follow Jack's call. The away team seals their helmets and exits into the airless bay. O’Neill cloaks their ride (just in case) and leads them to the interior airlock. Once it's sealed behind them, McKay triggers repressurization. Air floods in and fogs on contact, vapor boiling off the frozen walls. A breathable foothold at last. The pressure hatch ahead unseals into a corridor running through the freighter’s underbelly, an industrial sub-level, narrow and dank, pipes sweating and venting coolant into the dark. “I think I’ve seen this movie,”notes O’Neill to no one in particular. “It doesn’t end well for Samuel L. Jackson." Then, throwing a look to the others: “So where to?” Rommie wants control before anything else. Waste no time in going straight to the bridge where they can immediately confirm that every breach is sealed and the entire ship secured before committing to anything deeper. The methodical call, it puts the freighter’s systems in their hands. Daniel motions to his brand spanking new Starfleet-issued tricorder. A single faint contact flickers somewhere ahead - which should be impossible on a ship this dead. "Someone may be alive down here,”he says. "We have to investigate." “SomeONE or someTHING?”counters McKay who is wholly focused on his own tricorder, and another reading. The whole ship scans dark but for one compartment, still bleeding the last of a dying reserve to hold a localized containment field. When that power fails, the field fails, and whatever’s inside likely with it. He wants a look before that happens. “And it’s on the way,”he sells it. “Just a tiny detour; a slight delay."

On board, they discover a containment field housing a dormant android and must decide whether or not to awaken it.] Captain’s Log, supplemental. The away team is still aboard the derelict freighter. The anomaly’s pulses have been playing havoc with our communications, and their reports reach us in fragments, when they reach us at all. A simple boarding has turned complicated, and I won’t have a clear picture until I can raise them again. Onboard the ship – You let the containment cycle finish. The field drops and the android comes online, her impassive gaze clocking the weapons trained on her. “Greetings, I am a level-5 service android entrusted with operations aboard the freighter Waldorf Astoria, on its twelve hundredth and fourth voyage. My designation is Maia 3352 and I am property of Traugott Corporation, as is the Waldorf Astoria. Any attempt to unlawfully acquire, interfere with, or damage this vessel or its contents will result in swift legal action. You are strongly advised to disembark.” She waits. Your move. What do you do? A – Put her back under. Flip the containment field back on and return her to stasis. B – Let Daniel talk to her. Explain the situation, and suggest you work together to restore ship functions. C – Have Rommie attempt a neural link to seize control of the android. Fast, if it works, but forcing a peer AI is a gamble. CHOOSE! [Check below for our Previously On recap - or click through the quote tweets for every stage of our adventure to date.]

The ship’s service android, Maia, helps them gain access to the bridge where they are presented with three crucial tasks: A) Acquiring crucial data from the ship’s computer, B) Investigating a fast-fading life sign, and C) Going to engineering and venting the drive before the core goes critical.] Jack makes the call. They’ll split up. Maia and McKay will head to engineering to vent the drive. He and Daniel will investigate the life sign. And Rommie will remain on the bridge to decipher the corrupted data. Maia leads the way to engineering, McKay trotting alongside her to keep pace. He tries to make conversation as they go, asking her how long she’s served aboard the Waldorf Astoria. She tells him she was commissioned for the freighter’s nine hundred and fifty-sixth voyage, a little over eight years ago after the previous service android was decommissioned and retired. “What’s android retirement like?”asks McKay. “Custodial work at a museum?” “Component donation of functional subsystems, followed by industrial recycling,”replies Maia matter-of-factly. McKay is aghast. “Are you serious? That’s horrible!” Maia doesn’t understand the reaction. “I will have served my purpose. I am the property of Traugott Corporation after all. They may do with me as they wish, and my salvageable parts contribute to the betterment of the company.” McKay is winding up to argue the point when they reach engineering. The doors slide open, and the sight inside stops him cold. Crawling across the floor, up the walls, and over the core itself are a half-dozen small, metallic spider-like machines. What does McKay do? A) Draw his weapon and fire. Drive them away from the core. B) Run. Get clear and warn the others. C) Trust in Maia. Let her handle them. CHOOSE!

First Mission: The Ghost Ship (Part 2) #Amalgaverse (While investigating a seemingly derelict freighter, the away team made up of Colonel Jack O'Neill, Dr. Daniel Jackson, Android AI Rommie, and Dr. Rodney McKay encountered a potentially hostile utility unit.) Rather than retreat or open fire, O'Neill throws a look to Rommie: "You got this?". "Leave it to me,"she replies. Rommie shuts her eyes and reaches out to the machine, feeling along its control channels for a way in. She works past one dead protocol after another, hunting the handshake that will give her control. Then, she’s inside. Her expression sharpens. The unit responds, shuddering, its amber eye dimming, servos winding down. The heavy frame stumbles forward one last uneven step before its knees buckle and it collapses to the deck in a heap. The ship falls silent. A beat to take stock, then you pick your way past the downed bot and down the corridor to a sealed door. A hazard indicator flashes back at you. Rommie confirms what it means: the section beyond has been breached, and is open to vacuum. It’s also the direct path to the bridge and the ebbing power source. Any way around costs time, and that containment field is fading. “I can seal this compartment behind us, then open the door to the breached section,”offers Rommie. “Once that happens, the air in here rushes out, along with anything not secured. You'll be fine in your EV suits." Then, reading McKay's reluctance, she reminds him: "It’s the most direct route forward." What do you do? A. Seal up and cross into the breached section. B. Leave it sealed and find another way around, however long that takes. CHOOSE! [Check below for our Previously On recap - or click through the quote tweets for every stage of our adventure to date.]

On board, they discover a service android named Maia who is suspicious of our team’s intent.] “Daniel,”says Jack, cocking his head towards the android. “You want to get in here?” Daniel steps up to address the android: “Hi, Maia. I’m Daniel. My friends and I have boarded your ship to render assistance after picking up your distress call. So we’re only here to help. No plundering and/or pillaging.” “And yet you are armed,”notes Maia. “A precautionary measure for our protection,”Daniel assures her. “We had no idea what to expect when we boarded.” A beat. “I’d like to propose we work together to bring your ship’s systems back online. How does that sound?” Maia responds: “Your heart rate has remained stable, your respiration even, and your galvanic skin response showed no spike. I detect no physiological markers of duplicity.” A pause. “Your eyes also read as sincere. And a very clear blue. I find that difficult to disregard.” “Yeah, he gets that a lot,”notes O’Neill as McKay rolls his eyes. “I am inclined to believe you,”Maia continues. “But your body tells me only what you believe, not what your companions intend.” Her gaze turns to Rommie: “An android keeps a record of all it witnesses. Allow me to interface with your colleague so that I can confirm what you have told me. Do that, and I will help you access the bridge and ship’s systems.” Do you allow Maia to interface with Rommie?

First Mission: The Ghost Ship (Part 2) #Amalgaverse [An away team made up of Colonel Jack O’Neill, Dr. Daniel Jackson, the android/AI Rommie, and Dr. Rodney McKay has been dispatched to investigate a seemingly derelict freighter. While on their way to check out an ebbing containment field, they negotiate a hull breach but eventually find their progress blocked by an uncooperative door. The team debates whether they should EVA to the next airlock, blow the door, or backtrack and find another way around.] A decision is made. BOOM! The team, tucked back behind the sealed compartment, feels the blast roll through the deck. They give it a moment, then open up and cross back over the breach to inspect the damage. “Beauty,”says O’Neill. He shaped the charge small, a smidge of C4 packed right into the lock housing, enough to gut the mechanism and pop the seal without blowing the door off its frame. The panel hangs open, the lock a blackened ruin, the rest intact. “Some people work in oils,”notes Daniel. “Others in clay.” “I dabble in firearms and high explosives,”says O’Neill, admiring his handiwork. They push through into a depressurized antechamber, cross it, and Rommie seals it behind them, then depressurizes the compartment beyond. Another breathable foothold, the ruined door sealed off at their backs. They move on, into a dimly lit corridor. The overheads are dead. Only a low red emergency wash bleeds down from somewhere ahead, throwing long shadows along the bulkheads. McKay stops. “Did you heart that?”he asks, clearly spooked. Everyone holds up. They listen. Nothing but the hum of the dying ship. McKay insists: “I heard something.” O’Neill is about to tell him to getting moving when – they all hear it. A dry, chittering skitter, quick and many-legged. They can’t place the source at first and then they realize – it’s coming from inside the walls. “Let’s pick up the pace,”says O’Neill. The others need no encouragement. They move quick and quiet, the skittering keeping pace behind the bulkheads, until they arrive at their destination. A mechanical room, thrumming with what power the ship still possesses. Conduits and machinery ring the walls, and at the center of the chamber, mounted on a raised platform, is a containment field, a column of crackling blue energy. Suspended within is a blue-skinned service android. And now the readings make sense. What McKay took for a waning field is actually the energy signature of a charge cycle nearing completion. pouring its reserves into the figure within. The counter is almost at zero. You have a choice. A. Let the cycle finish. Let it complete and awaken the fully charged android. Then question the one thing onboard that may have the answers. B. Restart the cycle. Interrupt the charge before it finishes, keeping the android locked in the field while you search the bridge. CHOOSE!

Satisfied, Maia leads them off down a dimly lit corridor towards the bridge. They walk in silence, only the hiss of venting steam and the ringing of their boots on the metal grating.

McKay flinches. “What the – “ “Where are we going?”asks O’Neill. Indeed, the team is headed off course. Rommie points out that if they’re going to the bridge, they’re headed in the wrong direction. Maia agrees. Her neural link to the ship, she explains, has flagged a containment leak from the back-up reactor that’s flooded the compartment ahead. “I carry manufacturer-installed radiation shielding,”she informs them. “You do not, and the exposure could be lethal.” So she’s routing them the long way around.

On board, they discover a service android named Maia who requests permission to interface with Rommie in order to confirm the team’s peaceful intent.] The team is split on Maia’s request, but leaning toward allowing it. But, in the end, the decision isn’t theirs to make as a group. O’Neill turns: “Rommie, it’s your call.” Rommie holds Maia’s gaze and doesn’t hesitate. “Let’s do it.” Maia steps forward and the two androids lock eyes. Rommie compartmentalizes and walls off her memory stores, then lowers the rest of her defenses. A beat, and she feels the scan: a delicate pass over the open data, read-only. It lasts only seconds before the connection breaks. Maia blinks, then smiles. “Thank you.” She turns to the others. She tells them that she was in the middle of a scheduled charge cycle when the ship suddenly dropped out of FTL. Given that she has only now come back online, her time off-line has left her memory stores incomplete. What she does know she has assembled in the last few moments, through her neural link to the ship and a perusal of the automated incident report. The report tells her this much. The Waldorf Astoria suffered sudden and catastrophic failures throughout the ship after contact with an atemporal force during FTL transit. Sometime after, an entity of unknown origin gained access to the freighter. Maia offers a trade. She will lead them to the bridge and give them access to ship-wide systems, enough to restore the freighter to full structural and operational integrity. In return, she asks for their help in purging the ship of the intruder. As you consider her offer, she produces a weapon, charges it, and heads for the exit. Do you agree to the deal? Yes No CHOOSE!

Some of you have mentioned seeing an advance screener of the Stargate: Atlantis episode "Adrift" that included the Mckay-asteroid sequence with unfinished visual effects. Well here (again compliments of series VFX Supervisor Mark Savela) is that sequence - conceived, shot, and realized.

Dark Matter (2015): "Boobs"

Among wild conspiracy theories, this is truly the wildest. Project Anchor is purportedly a secret NASA project preparing for a gravitational anomaly on August 12th, when Earth will lose gravity for 7 seconds due to the intersection of gravitational waves from two black holes. Prepare accordingly!

Shortly, after SG-1 was cancelled, we stopped receiving network notes. As a gag, I wrote a scene into a script that saw our resident alien, Teal'c, inadvertently attend a reading of the Vagina Monologues. I assumed that, when they saw it, they would ask me to remove it... #スターゲイト

Since this was my final SG-1 episode after we received news of the cancellation, I also made sure to take a few not-so-subtle shots at the network.
