Who: Ulaz and you!
Broadcast: Fleet wide
Action: Planet side and Blameless
When: While on planet

Broadcast
[Ulaz has found the flouds. There certainly are a lot of them where he had ended up while exploring. As he's standing there, one can barely see the forest through the ... flouds]

Interesting creatures. I don't know that I have ever seen something quite like this before.

[One of the flouds noses into frame and makes a bleat at him. He reaches out to pet it, a faint smile on his face at how happy it seems to make the creature]

Does anyone know what these are?

Action
[The underground city was interesting, but in the end it was far too much for Ulaz so he had taken to going out in the jungle and exploring. Forget the dinosaurs and other creatures that might want to eat others. He takes that as practice in avoiding attacks.

He can also be found on the Blameless, going about his normal assignments or getting a cup of tea in the dining room. It still... doesn't feel quite right on the ship. Like something is missing]

Well... it could be useful, I guess. Wool can be pretty versatile.

If that's similar to Earth sheep wool.

[Keith shrugged a little.]

[scalpelofmarmora]

I suppose they do have their use.

What sort of things would you do with sheep wool?

[tempredmental]

Uh... well... make things. Blankets, sweaters, coats, socks... usually stuff to keep you warm. You have to be careful, though. Some humans are allergic and it makes them itch.

[scalpelofmarmora]

I see. They seem very versatile creatures then. They would have benefit on the ships as long as they were kept away from people who are allergic to them.

[tempredmental]

Yeah. And, we're actually helping them by sheering off the wool each year. They don't need it in the summer, and it can get all tangled and ratty looking. This way, it stays healthier. Also, it grows back, so it's not like they'll be cold when the weather cools down. Almost like a never-ending supply.

[scalpelofmarmora]

That is helpful. I can see why they would be useful to have around. You make a good case for having some on the ship.

[tempredmental]

Heh. Well, that wasn't my original reason for putting it out there. I mean, they're useful, but they still need to be cared for like any other animal... cleaned up after, fed, taken care of if they get sick... stuff like that.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Of course they do. Like any other animal. I would be surprised if they didn’t.

I suppose I was already wondering about them.

[tempredmental]

True.

You were, huh?

[Keith looked a little amused.]

Have you picked one out, yet?

[scalpelofmarmora]

[Don’t underestimate him wanting a pet. And this one is at least useful with its floof]

Perhaps this one.

[The one that seems to keep getting in his way wanting pets]

[tempredmental]

[Keith chuckled a little.]

I think it suits you.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Does it? Then I will have to see about bringing this one back.

I should make sure that the ship is ready for me to bring it back first.

[tempredmental]

[That got a small chuckle, and then Keith nodded.]

Yeah, probably. I hope no one on the Blameless is allergic.

[scalpelofmarmora]

As far I as I know they are not. It is best to check with the two werewolves on the ship though before introducing an animal like this into their midst.

[tempredmental]

That might be a good idea.

Good luck, yeah?

[scalpelofmarmora]

Thank you. I may perhaps be bringing this little one back once I check with the ship.

[tempredmental]

[That got something of an amused smile from Keith and he nodded.]

I'll have to come visit, then.

[The idea of Ulaz with a pet was just... it was something.]

[scalpelofmarmora]

I will let you know if it is something that happens so you can come see it.

[Yes, Ulaz who looks vaguely like a cat with a sheep for a pet]

[tempredmental]

I look forward to it.

Talk to you soon.
