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.]

I could do some research at the library to see what plants have medicinal qualities then obtain a couple for you. I will have to be going down to look for bedding anyway so I can look for that at the same time.

[He seems quite pleased that Ulaz is interested in his plant idea. He knows he'll like it too since it will likely mean something pleasant to smell when he has to come in here. Not that he ever needs to but it could still help.]

[scalpelofmarmora]

I would appreciate that. If it could serve a purpose, then it would be better to one that simply sits there.

[There will be uni-taskers in his lab!

If nothing else, it couldn't hurt to have something in the lab that made it look less... sterile]

You are working on the whole ship then?

[dandyofawolf]

I am. Perhaps we could discuss how you would like to see your own quarters decorated?

[Apparently he's going as far as to see that even the bedrooms are taken care of. You better believe it.]

[scalpelofmarmora]

No one ever goes there so there's not much point to it.

[Well, he goes there... but only one to sleep. He doesn't spend a lot of time in there. It's too small.

Convince him otherwise]

[dandyofawolf]

I personally do not view a bedroom as a place where one decorates for a guest. It is a personal sanctuary with things meant to bring personal comfort. Sometimes objects you can look at that relax you and sometimes just things that are more practical. Like comfortable bedding, for example.

I personally have obtained a more comfortable mattress for my bed and have seen to it that I have at least a rug on the floor and a mirror on the wall. Little personal things that are more of what I am used to. We could find small things that will make you more comfortable and relaxed during your time in that room.

[scalpelofmarmora]

More comfortable bedding would at least be preferable to what we currently.

[Too bad they probably can't make the bed longer for him.

There's so much that he has pretty much given up thinking about since the Blade of Marmora began fighting against eh Galra Empire. A room as "personal sanctuary" was one of them]

I suppose looking and considering ideas wouldn't hurt anything. They aren't really things I've had for quite some time, but I guess this is the only chance I'm going to get to try it.

[dandyofawolf]

It would not hurt to have a taste of it. If nothing else you could quite enjoy it.

[And he is pleased to be convincing him.]

Have you a color preference for items in your room that I could look for?

[scalpelofmarmora]

No, it wouldn't hurt.

[And all of his possible arguments against it didn't apply here. There was no war against the Galra Empire, no Voltron]

Similar colors to what would be here. Earth tones.

[dandyofawolf]

That simplifies things. I can look for general earth tones when I look for things for both rooms.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Thank you. I look forward to seeing what you can find.

[dandyofawolf]

I'll come back later after I've gathered everything.

[For now he'll depart! Gotta get those things!]

[scalpelofmarmora]

[And Ulaz watches him go, having never really seen someone so enthusiastic for decorating... and decorating someone else's space. Once he's gone, he'll go back to what he was doing]
