[There's a bunch of noise and static before people see a cat paw clawing at the screen and a curious meow coming from it. Eventually the screen becomes less blurry as they see an up close view of an orange tabby kitten trying to chew the top corner of the data pad.

There's some noise in the background of someone taking apart a heavy metal piece. That quickly stops and there's some clanking as tools are placed down and a wary sigh follows.]

Millicent! What did I say about leaving that alone?! You have your own toys to play with.

[The feed is abruptly turned off as a gloved hand picks up the orange tabby and pockets the device.]

Who: Kolivan and YOU
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Goldstone and Iskaulit
When: Soon after his shuffle

Broadcast

[For those who have seen Krolia and Ulaz, it may be easier to recognize a Galra. A Galra who is picking a piece of confetti off of his shoulder. He looks less than impressed by the fact that he got to have his "celebration" for his arrival to the Goldstone. He also looks like he barely fits in this room that he's been assigned to... No wait. When he shifts it's clear he's in the armory.]

To the SS Goldstone, I am Kolivan of the Blades of Marmora. It seems I have been assigned as your security officer. At least for what is supposedly meant to be security in this...fleet.

[He maaaaaaaaaay not approve of. AT ALL.]

We will need to improve the regulations for this ship. The security needs improvement.

[As for the rest of you, he'll introduce himself in his own fashion to you as well. Though anyone who is from the Blades of Marmora will here a sort of tapping in the background. A coded message to you saying the following: "If there are other Blades here respond. This is Kolivan. If there are any other Blades here please respond..."]

Since I am currently residing with this fleet, the introduction will apply to you as well for the sake of efficiency. For now...signing out.

[And the video ends.]

Goldstone

[With that message sent, he goes back to figuring out the state of the security on this ship. Thus far he's not impressed with it. It's too easy for someone to get onto this ship uninvited. While things appear peaceful that doesn't mean they will remain so.

Which means that it's easy to spot the towering Galra ducking through the ship to figure out where the holes in the security are so he can look into fixing them. The last thing they need is to be vulnerable for a potential attack.

Please don't mind that he's always frowning. That's just...Kolivan.]

Iskaulit

[When he's not on the Goldstone, he's exploring the Iskaulit. He's heard that there are a lot of abandoned rooms here so he's hoping to find more supplies here. Or information. (Especially information.)

Once again, it's easy to spot him since he towers over heads as he walks along. For now his braid is wrapped around his neck almost making it look like he has a white choker. It keeps it out of the way for the time being, something he feels will be necessary should he come across an area where he'll need to put on his helmet. One can never tell what the air quality will be on a ship with abandoned rooms in it.

Alright and he might also be looking for a place to turn into a room so he can have a place to escape to when he wants to stretch out. The Goldstone is clearly not built for Galra bodies like his own.]

Action: Planetside
When: December 25th

( The ceremony is long so look below the cut lol )

The Reception

[The reception for the werewolf wedding is something to behold. You don't have to worry though, it's indoors. That means it's plenty warm for the beautifully decorated space. All of which is in blue and silver as per the wedding colors decided by the grooms (aka this was Biffy's idea). There is plenty of time for mingling now and either delivering gifts to the gift table or visiting with the grooms.

Should wish to there is a dance floor with music selections approved of by the grooms (again...Biffy) for the evening. But don't worry, they've been good enough to allow for selections that aren't strictly classic to allow for people of other eras to have their fun too. So break a leg on the dance floor and show everyone what a good time there is to be had there. Especially if you've had a few drinks.

After all, there is alcohol here. And it's free. But try not to get too full on it. Because Taako and Lup have provided a twelve course menu for supper. The food is sure to be something you'll be talking about for ages to come. Please do enjoy every last morsel of it. You are sure to leave full and very satisfied by the time the sun rises. (This is a wedding held entirely at night so hope you're ready to party into the morning!)

So relax and enjoy yourselves. But don't be surprised if at some point the grooms vanish during the evening only to reappear and spend the rest of the night mingling as wolves. You are at a werewolf wedding, you know.]

[Ulaz is very quiet for a moment when he starts this then speaks]

I find myself constantly confused by what these worlds are able to accomplish. I got this from that tree on the planet.

[He holds it so it can be seen. It's an image of two female Galran, one probably slightly younger than Ulaz's age and a younger one, still bright purple in color. Both have completely solid yellow eyes like Ulaz and the background looks very... desert like.

He moves the picture back so he can look at it again before speaking]

My mother and my sister from more years back than I can count. I don't know how this could have been obtained.

3. Network Post - Video - late Tuesday afternoon

[Guess who has come back after being at home for a few days? This guy! And this time he looks relaxed, a true miracle after an update! He's at the Blameless lounge, having a hot cup of tea with his dog Procyon laying on the couch next to him, head on his lap. It seems Shiro has been shopping, there are bags on the floor and a colorful pile of sweaters on the table next to what appears to be a spaceship model of the size of a grown kitten.

But all these are details. The main thing that is going to call everyone's attention is the, uh, "sweater" he's wearing. Shiro, why? (He'll tell soon.) There's also an obvious military jacket wrapped around his shoulders - both this and the sweater are lacking the right sleeve, because going home has brought modifications for his arm. It's thicker now and it... floats. Yep. Surprise?]

Hello, Drift Fleet. It seems Atroma is making it a tradition to send me home right before the holidays and to come back to a present.

[He's smiling while saying all this, eyes on the communicator on the table but glancing at the starship model every now and then.]

If anyone has been wondering, the wish-granting tree does work. I'm not sure what I did, exactly, I tried most of the rumors. But it seems to have the same limitations that our hosts have when it comes to powers and sizes. Unless there's an universe out there where it's okay to have space battle cruisers of the size of a puppy. [He puts down his mug and stares at the "toy", concentration obvious on his face. And after a few seconds, that toy starts floating up, flying in circles around a now grinning Shiro's head, and stops at the table again... only to start transforming in a thick robot lady. How cool is that?] At least some things still work. Sorry for not being able to give anyone a ride.

[The tree granting him a wish for a ship surely has trolled him good... oh well. It's still a nice little thing, and feeling the bond at the back of his head is comforting, to say the least. He looks at the camera again for one last announcement.]

Blameless crew, whenever you have a minute, your captain has something for you. [Look at that, him referring to himself as "captain" more freely now. He pats the pile of sweaters.] It's a silly tradition, I thought it could be fun to share. Almost like an uniform. To my fellow captains, maybe you want to join us to see which crew can get the ugliest Christmas sweaters?

[Just kidding! ...maybe. Is this why he's suddenly wearing that old gift from Fie? RUN!]

the_tailor

[At the moment, Lance is looking oh so appealing for the camera. Fresh faced and with his adorable pet otter perched on his shoulder, he gives a wave.]

Hey, everyone! So, uh, this here broadcast is actually more for the fans watching than the rest of you. But I guess if you want to hear me answer some fanmail, by all means. I've gotten bits and pieces over the month, but I figured I might as well do a megapost and answer a whole bunch at once.

( Sometimes fame has its drawbacks )

Who: Everyone Who Wants to Come!
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Yes, Planetside
When: Sunday

An invitation was sent out via the network to all of the Fleet, inviting them to come together for a night of feasting, dancing, and games.

Kirk has managed to procure an event space for what he has dubbed Fleetsgiving. It sports a warm, interior space, decorated with tables, including two longer ones for food and drink. Along the far wall is a fireplace, crackling away for warmth, chairs set around and a table for fireplace games. The entire room glows with lights set in draped garlands, candles, and dim lights, warm and inviting and offering intimacy for those who wish to find it. Kirk would take credit for the decor, but no, it was the product of the owners of the event space. Probably just as well, to be honest.

An open space at the center is open for dancing at one's leisure, music drifting through the air - loud enough for dancers to sway to a beat, but not loud enough to make conversation impossible. But, who knows, maybe towards the latter half of the evening when everyone has drunk enough, there will be a dance contest. There might also be a karaoke contest, but, really, that's up to the people.

There is some prepared food - something that looks like a kind of poultry and something like meatballs in a bright orange sauce. Kirk can't vouch for what sort of animals they came from, but he can vouch for them being delicious. Bread, jam spreads, butter, local nuts and crackers. For desert there are what look like tiny tarts, and cookies dusted in a sweet pink powder. But while there is food provided, there is plenty of room for others to bring their favorites from home, or even their favorites from being here in the Fleet.

Nothing was spared for drinks either. Local wines are set out in their bottles, ready to pour, fizzy drinks in cans and punch bowls, harder options for those who wished them further down, and water and juice for those less inclined to imbibe. While there isn't much room for additions, they are welcome.

By the fire are a number of games laid out for choice - cards, some board games, and even a chess set, though it is a touch odd. Three boards, at varying heights, on a curved stand. The way the seats are arranged make it comfortable for many to play at once, or for only a few to play and many to gather by the fire and watch or idly chatter.

Come one, come all, and have a good time!

_{[ ooc: this is an open mingle post! Go ahead and make your own starters, tag around, and have a good time! Characters would be encouraged to bring their own food to add, or drinks if they so like, favorite games, etc. ]}

Who: Kogarasumaru
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Iskaulit
When: Today until the 11th

Iskaulit - The Dojo

[This is a place where Kogarasumaru offers swordsmanship lessons but also a chance for people to spar in safety. However, today this space doesn't appear to be used for either of those things. In fact, if one is to come to this space for either they will instead find the tiny sword dancing. There's no music but it almost seems like it doesn't require it really. There's a sort of tranquility to his expression as he moves before he turns towards the one who has stepped inside and offers a smile as he holds his hand out towards that person.]

Will you watch or dance?

[He's now paused in his motions as he waits for the answer.]

Iskaulit - Fox Park

[Despite the snow, there is a pretty young man sitting there with a fox sleeping on his lap while he strokes the fur gently. He has no shoes or gloves on and clearly doesn't appear to be bothered by the snow. Is it cold? Well he's showing no signs of caring about that or even recognizing the fact and instead just enjoying the company of his companion.

Seeing someone, he lifts a finger to his painted lips in a soft shhh before smiling.]

Softly now. This little one sleeps.

Iskaulit - Hallway

[At some point he'll be found simply standing in a hallway looking thoughtful. There's really not much else going on honestly. He's just sort of looking off into the distance pondering something. At least until he notices that he isn't alone. At that point he'll turn with one of his customary smiles.]

Would you happen to be able to tell this father which establishment you would recommend for drinks? I would like to partake in one right now.

[Who better to ask than another person, right?]

[Dry amusement aside, she is concerned by their dwindling numbers and what, if anything, it means.]

scalpelofmarmora

Who: Ulaz and YOU!
Broadcast: N/A
Action: various
When: Anytime while in system

Option 1: Scrapheap
[Ulaz could be found a lot of the time at the piles of junk on this planet. With so many projects to work on and a big one being Shiro's arm so that he didn't have that problem anymore, he needed a lot of supplies. Luckily he was a big guy and not likely prone to people trying to take things from him.

It seemed to be a worth while endeavor at least. He was finding a lot of things that he could use]

Option 2: Blameless
[Some of Ulaz's supplies from scavenging were squirreled away in his room because he didn't want to leave them out. Some, however, had been temporarily moved to the lounge space on the Blameless whenever he found himself with a moment.

From previous discussions with Death over on the Caprine, he had decided to try his hand at building something for Loyalty, Justice's cat. He had taken some time during the drift to read up on the tiny felines - especially since one kept coming in trying to chew on things in his lab - and he was prepared to try a solution that might keep her mildly distracted.

So he was currently seated on the floor of the lounge trying to put together pieces to make something of a "cat tree". There were also length of rope next to him and what must have been once some carpeting, but he wasn't ready for those yet.

Help him? Hinder him? Keep him company while he works? Your call!]

Option 3: Junker Racing
[He had mentioned it to only a few people since he had been here, but Ulaz had, in his youth, been quite a daredevil. Most however, didn't really know that.

But in the course of his investigations of the planet, he found the junker racing. Ah... youth. But he couldn't seem to tear himself away from watching it...]

Closed to Lyall: Arena
( cut for length )

violentroots

Who: Lotor and You!

Broadcast: Yes

Action: Yes

When: October 05-27

01 : VIDEO

[ The video pops on to reveal a man that may look familiar but at the same time...not. Lotor is glitched and he's all Altean, and despite how ....terribly his time here has gone he's looking somewhat content. He's had a lot of time to think. ]

Good evening Drift Fleet. I have to say that my first foray into glitching has been not all that unpleasant. I understand that this occurs because of a malfunction in the devices implanted into us, but has anyone discovered a way to extend or reduce the time affected?

02: ACTION : SCRAP HEAP

[ It is like getting back to his roots. If there is one title Lotor would give to himself, unrelated to his aspirations for the unverse, it would be a collector. He's prided himself on his ability find the amazing in the doldrums, and in 10,000 years he's built himself up quite a collection. He's never been above getting his hands dirty.

As such he can be found deep in a prime bit of trash, pulling out wires from some old shuttle.

Come join in! ]

03: ACTION: ARENA

[ Lotor misses being all Altean, but it is hard for him to resist the call to the Arena now that he's all back to normal. A little stress release that's all.

Care to take on a monster or two with him? Or a little bit of sparring? ]

04: VOICE: Private to Princess Allura

I wanted to make you aware that it seems Atroma has decided to transfer me to your ship. I imagine it has something to do with ratings, as I attempted to refuse the orders to no avail. I apologize for what ever inconvenience this may cause for you. I will do my utmost to give you your space.

04: ACTION: THE SS TOURIST

[ Your new pilot is on board. Lotor is particularly annoyed that he's lost all his work on the starstruck shuttle, and can be found anywhere on the ship. But he'll be off ship often to pick through the trash (and bring back a bunch of nonsense and good stuff as well) so you'll find him often in the cargo hold and late at night. ]

Who: Biffy and YOU
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Iskaulit at his shop
When: Throughout the month

Broadcast

[Biffy comes on screen with a smile as he nods his head politely. Behind him one can see his lovely looking hair salon...the Maison de la Lune.]

Good evening. Given the fact that we are now in the season of Autumn, I felt that it was time to offer a special at my salon for all who wish to partake.

[He steps aside to wave at the interior behind him. It really is very lovely. Elegant even in the simplicity of it. Biffy had really gone out of his way to make sure that the interior design is very classy indeed.]

For this month, I wish to offer a special on makeovers. This will include a hair styling, as well as a scalp massage and a facial. For those interested in cosmetics, I am pleased to say that I can provide makeup for this as well.

[He turns back to the screen.]

I look forward to your patronage at the Maison de la Lune. Thank you.

Maison de la Lune

[Sure enough Biffy is at his shop a lot more this month. (Please don't mind the evenings he isn't. He's probably down on the planet running with his mate.) And whenever he smells someone approach, he is there to greet them with a smell and an impeccable bow. Here in his shop he isn't a Communications Officer, he isn't an Alpha, he isn't a Lord. Here he is just the humble keeper of this salon who is ready to take care of his customer.

So it is with that bow that he will look up, that twinkle in his pretty blue eyes.]

Good evening. May I offer you some tea and you can tell me how I may serve you this evening?

scalpelofmarmora

Who: Ulaz and you!
Broadcast: Everyone!
Action: Isakulit and SS Blameless
When: During drift

Broadcast
[Well, he does look vaguely like himself even if he's quite clearly not Galra anymore, with tanned skin and non-pointed ears. He still has the white mohawk and the markings on the side of his head appear to be... tattoos?]

Well, this is not something that I was expecting to have happen. It appears that this time, I am no longer Galra. I seem to be human.

I mean no offense to the humans here, but this is a strange experience for me. I can already tell this form is not as strong and I seem to be a little shorter? I wonder what else is different.

Action
[Ulaz can be found on the Blameless, doing his normal work in the lab and other duties he has been assigned either as part of being First Mate or taking on because of Shiro's temporary restrictions. Of course, he would also be checking on his patients or seeking out Procyon at some point to see the lovely dog.

On the Iskaulit, he was probably in the library, which wasn't exactly the most exciting. The other place he could be found was the obstacle course he used for training. After a few days of thinking this was weird, he decided to use this as a learning experience, seeing how this body differed from the one that he was used to so he was going to try and train as normal]

Who: Keith and everyone who comes across him
Broadcast: No
Action: Huntress, Iskaulit
When: From today until the end of the drift period (Sept 25)

=====

Sept 19 - 22

[SURPRISE... Keith was small again. Except... this time? He didn't remember the Fleet. He's not as young as last time, either. There was some panic and angry lashing out at a few people to start, but, once he settled down, he started to explore.

He stuck mostly to the Huntress and the Iskaulit. He'd look familiar to anyone who knew Keith, really, and especially to those who had seen him de-aged last time (though he was a bit older than before). However, be prepared for grumpy stares and lack of trust. Keith was not trusting by nature thanks to how things went for him after his dad died. Adults were especially the bane of his existence.

Care to meet a young emo teen? He might have just pick-pocketed you.]

=====

Sept 23 - 25

[Keith stalked along the corridor, his paws padding softly on the metal floor. He'd woken up as a panther, but he wasn't going to just stay put in his room until it wore off. It was annoying, because he didn't have hands and he couldn't speak to anyone. It also meant he couldn't do his assigned job, either.

So, he was trying to pass the time by strolling around the Iskaulit. He was relying on others to get him back and forth between ships, and had gotten Lance to help him over there that morning so he could jog around the ship with Shiro for their normal routine. Granted, a panther jogging with a man that had dog ears and a tail wasn't exactly normal, but here they were.

It was hard to resist the catlike traits and something at the edge of his peripheral vision shifted, getting his attention. He froze, his tail twitching sharply, before suddenly dashing off down the hall.

Look out, passerby! That panther is about to run you over!]
