Not over the comm, they won't. Even the strongest resonance won't show us on these things.

[Maybe it's a trick of the eyes? Seraphim don't appear through tech.]

In person, maybe. Some have it, others develop it- most don't get it at all. I can't do anything about your ability to see me, but if it helps any, I don't stalk the crew.

[And if his presence bothers the guy, well, sorry, but he was here first.]

(Technology is an oddity to him. The screens will brighten and darken due to the fact that his eyes can pick up the slightest fluctuations.)

I met another like you earlier. I thought perhaps there was a hint of light, but I did not trust it.

(So he had closed his eyes during that conversation.)

That is reassuring.

(It's more the fact that if someone spooked him, he might grievously hurt and/or kill them by accident. This is an Elf who has seen long years of torture and war.)

Dezel? Yeah, he's also a seraph. There are three of us within the fleet, but the third is on a different ship.

[You just can't have too many in one space. Like territorial dogs. ...Nevermind that they all live in one person's head most of the time.]

If it bothers you that much, I can announce my presence if we're going to share the same space for a time. But that would only work if you can hear me.

[Maybe he can just send a text or something. Honestly, he's used to people just ignoring him; this isn't a problem he's ever had to consider before.]

I can hear you. I heard him. (His ears seem better adapted.) All you need do is clear your throat or walk...more forcefully.

(Maedhros would not ignore anyone. His response might be a simple nod or a small smile, but he never pretends someone doesn't exist.

Mainly because he knows how that feels.)

[nerdeology]

I see... if you have some resonance, then that makes it easier.

[Like Maglor, then. Maybe it's an elf thing.]

[castintoflames]

I am sorry you have such a difficulty, Captain. I merely wish to keep you safe.

(Video)

[nerdeology]

Maybe "difficult" isn't exactly the right word... this is normal for me. What do you mean by safe?

(Video)

[castintoflames]

I am part of the ship's security. (Is that comforting...?)

(Video)

[nerdeology]

I see. That's good, then- we were lacking someone in that position. I hope we won't have need of it, but many of the people here don't feel safe unless they're armed.

(Video)

[castintoflames]

I have much experience in battle. If they need me, I will not fail them. (He is protective of his own anyway.)

(Video)

[nerdeology]

I think you'll find this place much more peaceful than you're used to, in that case. It's been a long time since I had to fight anyone.

(Video)

[castintoflames]

Good. I have had more than my fill of violence. (Thousands of years of it is enough to turn anyone's stomach.) I admit that my brother, cousins and grandfather are my first priorities.

(Video)

[nerdeology]

That's not so unusual. Plenty of people value their family over others. That's a good thing, isn't it?

[Might as well be up front about it.]

(Video)

[castintoflames]

I think so. (But he can see the problem as a member of security.) I wished to make you aware of it in case there is a situation where I must choose who to save.

(Video)

[nerdeology]

So noted, then.

[It's not like he doesn't have his own priorities. Sorey and Dezel are here with him, after all.]
