TEXT [AUGUST 28TH, EARLY MORNING]

[squadgoals]

Hi all, just some quick housekeeping:

• I've doubled the security on the Mako. Fair warning: any attempts to hack its console will result in consequences. This is not a challenge! If you need it for anything, please get in touch with me first.
  
  
• It seems I'm your new Assistant Head of Tower duties, with Ryuuzaki functioning as our Head. I'm looking forward to working with all of you from here on out.
  
  
• I've already spoken with Ryuuzaki regarding my transfer from Engineering to Assistant Head of Tower duties, but I still haven't managed to locate how I was approved and placed in the role in the first place, as it was an application process. If anyone has an idea, please let me know.
  
  
• I was absent for a month in cryosleep, so my apologies for not being completely abreast of every on-board situation for the time being. Unfortunately, I have nothing new to add to cryosleep: I don't know what brought it on, I didn't go anywhere, and I don't know what stopped it.

To all crew old and new, feel free to message me with questions at any time, or stop by Mero Deck #022 for a chat. Or while the doors are still portaling, walk through my room unexpectedly.

Ha — I'm not against it. It's definitely something I can handle, and probably more in my wheelhouse than my last position — I was considering shifting out of engineering already, to be honest. Just curious how it happened.

[otiosity]

Oh well. In that case it was me. i was going to wait for an ideal moment to drop an unexpected piece of information that shocked the crowd.

but this is easier.

[For a moment, she blinks at the screen, then laughs out loud — a single "ha!" — before shaking her head, still chuckling, and responding.]

Gasp!

I can type a few more, if you need a crowd reaction.

But really — thanks, Hawke. I appreciate it. I probably owe you a drink, or two, or three.

[otiosity]

you might have to add a few more just so i can know this is real. usually people have a much different reaction to my shenanigans. more along the lines of "boo" "why would you" that sort of thing. so i'm feeling a bit of shock right now.

but not enough shock to decline drinks

[squadgoals]

My kind of shock.

In my absence, I seem to have been slotted into both the bouncer and dishwasher position, so your drinks will be both safe and clean.

[otiosity]

a clean glass? this is almost too much for me to take

[squadgoals]

No reactions until you see how many orange wheels I'm going to put on the side of your drinks.

[otiosity]

i'll save my best surprised face

[squadgoals]

Don't forget your "oohs" and "aahs". Proper exclamatory behavior.
