In any other case it would be fascinating, Daniel can't help but agree, except that he always seems to end up running for his life or getting mortally injured or watching his friends get mortally injured in these sorts of dreams, so the novelty wore off fairly quickly. At least he's sort of used to the dying thing, but that happened long before he got here.
"I actually made a living out of traveling through wormholes," Daniel says, keeping his tone light and conversational. The talking helps take his mind off the potential death and mortal injury and whatever else might lurk out here. Besides, what Julian's talking about is hitting all of his 'intellectually stimulating discussion' checkboxes, a rare feat. "Exploring new planets, and whatnot. New universes occasionally. I'll say this one's a first. It's a bit of a, a central hub, as far as I can tell. The Rift intersects with different universes and they all end up in this one. Or, er, the physical one I'm in."
He grins a little. He's definitely starting to like this guy, a sort of scientist-kindred spirit thing. His curiosity combined with the mention of wormholes and ships and space - yes, this is very, very much Daniel's area.
"The dreams are less well-defined." The rate at which he's speaking combined with the uphill trek is causing him to pant a little but this topic is for once right up his alley, so he presses on eagerly. "Sometimes other minds get pulled in, minds that aren't in direct contact. I take it you're, ah, a bit of an explorer too?"
