Status Update

Who: Ulaz and You! Mostly open, one closed
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Blameless and Iskaulit
When: Not too long after coming out of calibrations

Video
So it seems that not everything is as it was when we went into the calibrations. Of course we have added crew members to various ships and I would like to welcome them.

It is also regrettable that the Blameless has lost their previous captain as I have been promoted to the position. I hope though that he is well.

Action - Open
[For the first part after returning, Ulaz spends a great deal of time on the Blameless almost as if nothing has happened, taking over the captain's positions. But his crew will notice that at least initially, he is spending more time sitting in the dining room.

It is also likely that on the first evening, the crew and anyone who might be visiting will notice a random bottle of beer sitting in front of the door to the captain's room. It's full and unopened and just... there. If it gets removed, eventually another will appear in its place later in the evening.

The second day, the one that was there last is removed by Ulaz and another one doesn't replace it.

During this time, he can also be found on the Iskaulit as well, doing his usual training.

Action - Closed to Biffy
[The first evening, as soon as the sun has properly set and it has been given at least what he considers a decent amount of time, Ulaz heads to Biffy and Lyall's room. He pauses at the door for a moment and then knocks]

[Ulaz’s hearing is pretty good but he still appreciates the effort for the werewolves to not be silent. He’d seen a few times that even human, they could move around without a sound when it was night and most people were abed while they were still up. It was beyond eerie he thought]

Right now, I’m running through all the check that would normally be done. It has been over a month since we’ve been on the ship and I want to make sure everything is in working order.

From what I've been able to tell everything is exactly as we left it. Is that what the results are so far?

That is what I have been able to determine yes. From what I have seen, nothing is amiss and those who have reported about their stations have report nothing is out of place.

Which is good that we are not having to scramble to make repairs.

I'm grateful. It seems we have enough emotionally to deal with without having to contend with these factors as well.

[He sighs gently.]

I checked the door for the cargo hold and it still holds strong as well for the full moon periods.

I agree. Dealing with the lose of our captain at the same time as repairs would make it harder.

[Ulaz had it on his list to make sure that the werewolves’ full moon space was intact, but he wasn’t the one to judge its adequacy. So he was glad that Biffy had already taken the initiative to check the room]

Good. We don’t have to worry about that.

[That would have been a top priority if it was damaged. Considering he'd spared with Lyall and that had been hard enough when he was able to think and reason]

Do you have a list of the cargo contents? I could go see that everything is there.

[Ulaz flips through the pages of papers that he has been carrying around, quickly finding the list for the cargo contents. A mental note that he’ll have to take these around so everyone can double check to make sure their station has everything]

This is it here. We can do it together to save time if you'd like the help.

That would be wonderful. Having someone taller than myself will help for the places I can't reach.

[Never mind that he can easily jump and climb to those places. That is not what a gentleman does.]

Of course. Height does have an advantage. Lack of height does as well in the right situation.

[Considering a lot of things here were just not designed for someone of his height]

As in, I can get into areas you might not be able to manage? Well, as long as it doesn't ruin this suit, I think I can manage that.

As in many others can get into areas I cannot. Of course, as long as the suit will not become a causality.

[See? He's learning fashion is important]

[He's so proud of you, Ulaz.]

My thanks for that.

[He nods.]

Lead the way, captain.

[Especially so for two werewolves and one vampire. If nothing else, he's going to respect that]

Of course.

[Ulaz starts off for the cargo hold]

Hopefully the calibrations were not too bothersome for you.

There were a couple of things that were mildly uncomfortable but it does seem that Lyall and I were able to avoid having to worry about the full moon during that time at least.

[He's grateful for that.]

That’s good at least. The situation would have made that so much harder if you had been affected by the moon as well. Not just for you, but for everyone.

[He'd already fought Lyall one on one. He didn't want to have to manage more than one and in full change]

You've fought with Lyall already. Now imagine a wolf far stronger than him on top of having to deal with him.

[He's not bragging either. It's just a fact that he is far stronger than his husband. It's the very nature of him being an Alpha while Lyall is a Beta.]

I have, but not in full wolf form. I would not want to deal with him in wolf form. I also wouldn't want to deal with more than one in wolf form.

[Forget the fact that Biffy is stronger. He still wouldn't want to do it even if he wasn't]

I wouldn't wish for you to either. Far better that we can be contained during the full moon.

Yes, it is better. I would much prefer to have the room ready with silver. Safer for everyone that way.

It honestly is. Luckily you already know how the video surveillance works so I won't have to show you that part.

Yes, that is lucky. Makes your job a bit easier. Is there anything else that I should know about that I possibly didn't know before?

Not really. Simply make sure that we remain in there and do not enter under any circumstances. I have a schedule now so I can let you know when our cycles are. Otherwise it's best to just provide us with food while we sleep and to let it pass by.

Of course. A schedule will be good so that everyone this ship knows exactly when it is supposed to happen and when you will out of commission.

[Nothing new in those rules so status quo as it were]

I will see to organizing one as soon as we have finished looking over the ship.

Good. I look forward to seeing it. We will make sure everyone is aware of it so there are no surprises. Not that there were before, but it is better to be prepared.
