Decorating Madness...

[dandyofawolf]

Who: Sandalio and anyone on the Blameless (living or visiting)
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Blameless
When: Starting today and continuing onward for probably a few weeks so you can catch him anytime during then

[Getting used to a new lifestyle has been a challenge that has been made more difficult by the fact that he doesn't have his pack here. Nor his mate who also happens to be his Beta. Without that balancing force and without so much as a job to do he can slowly feel himself getting...twitchy. Which means that he falls back on the most comforting thing in his life and the thing he obviously does the best.

The unfortunate victim? The SS Blameless.

It starts off small. The dishes get replaced for real ones. The quality of tea goes up. A piece of art comes to decorate a wall or table to make things more homey. However, it doesn't stop there. Oh no. The werewolf is in full takeover now and he's going to make this the finest looking ship in the fleet if it kills him.

Should you be one of the crew you can expect him to show up to discuss how to improve the look of your quarters or even the look of your work station. Should you be someone visiting well you can be sure to find the shortest crew member of the Blameless moving about fixing things up.

And yes. He did put welcome mats in front of the cargo hold doors and the shuttle bay doors. What about it? Just because he's not a commanding officer doesn't mean he can't manage something.]

[By now, Kaname's been to the Blameless for a few visits, even with Messer crashing in her office at least half the time. However, this is the first she's seen a welcome mat. Or two.

Exiting the cargo bay has he standing there, staring down in amused confusion.]

Well, this is new.

[dandyofawolf]

[Sandalio just sees her exiting the cargo bay and makes a quick note to talk to his captain about having people not come onto the ship through that area anymore. It could be bad if they come during a time when it's the full moon, after all. Especially since that door is locked during those days.

For now he smiles at her.]

It is. I've recently added them. Welcome aboard. May I offer you some tea?

[axi]

[She lifts her head at the new voice and smiles politely in return.]

Ah, they're a nice touch. Very welcoming, as they should be.

[Kaname blinks, then nods.]

I don't see why not. I'm here to visit a friend, but a detour won't hurt. I'm Kaname.

[dandyofawolf]

[He nods his head politely and has her follow him to the kitchen. Here he pours her some tea and sets it up on a nice tray with some honey and lemon.

Because obviously he already had tea prepared. What sort of man doesn't have tea prepared for possible guests?]

Here. You are welcome to adjust the flavor to your preference, of course.

[axi]

Thank you. [She has a seat with a smile and nod. He's definitely the welcoming sort, and it's nice to see that put into action on a ship.

That man would be a downright dog.]

This is fine. Are the mats to make the ship more hospitable?

[dandyofawolf]

Of course. I felt that this ship was too oppressive without something to make it more welcoming. There certainly is no reason why we cannot make the ship more comfortable.

[He is ever a good host too. A proper gentleman through and through.]

It is taking some effort to convince the others but it is a task I am certain I am up for.

[axi]

I like the idea. My ship's a little on the darker side, but the crew itself more than makes up for that.

[She takes a drink to gauge the temperature, smiling in approval of the taste.]

Have you talked to everyone yet?

[dandyofawolf]

I have. Though I have not had the opportunity to fully get close to anyone yet, I have spoken with all of my crew mates.

[Some are more personable than others but that is no surprise.]

Are you friends with one of them?

[axi]

[Kaname nods, letting her drink cool a little.]

Messer Ihlefeld. He has the maintenance augment. [He gets a sheepish smile.] He might come off as cold sometimes, but he's not a bad person.

[dandyofawolf]

I mostly had the impression of him being anti-social actually.

[He sips at his tea.]

Cautious as well.

[axi]

[Well, that gets a warmer smile from her.]

You're right. Most people don't see that, even if he has his reasons for it. But I think this might do him some good.

[This being the decorating, his interaction with this man, or the ship itself, it's hard to tell.]

What should I call you?

[dandyofawolf]

I hope so. If you say he isn't a bad person then I would hope that I can befriend him.

[He's used to those surly types anyway. Thank you, Channing.]

I am Sandalio de Rabiffano. It is a pleasure to meet you.

[And he nods his head politely.]

[axi]

It'll take time, but I'd be glad if you did. He's worth it.

[She takes another, longer sip. Perfect temperature now.]

You as well, Sandalio. Kaname Buccaneer. If you'd like, feel free to mention we've met. It might make talking to him easier.

[dandyofawolf]

Thank you for that, Miss Buccaneer. If you feel it will help then I will make sure to keep that in mind.

[He smiles then nods to the tea.]

How is your tea?

[axi]

It might.

[A nod.]

Delicious, thank you. Have you been here long?

[dandyofawolf]

A couple of months now so I would say not particularly. A little longer than your friend but not by much.
