It's always good to have Miles around. Falling gratefully into a chair and trying not to look at him as if expecting him to pull a live rabbit out of the nearest drawer, Bel stretches out their legs and takes in the office's neat functionality.
"Nice work if you can get it. I think I've been through the entire ship today, twice." Chuckling, Bel rocks the chair back. The furniture doesn't clip to the deck, a small but ever-present reminder that this isn't any Dendarii ship. Oh, we're going to have fun if the gravity ever goes....
"I met a talking rock today. Our ship's cook is an Old Earth god who seems to be just as stuck here as we are. There's a werewolf on board, or at least a man who claims to be one. It looks like some help is being given to crewpeople in shock after having a planet demolished right under us, so that's good. And I can't be sure, but I think they have a child working down in Engineering. I've also been promoted to a rank I've never heard of, for no real reason I can ascertain, and to commemorate the occasion, they gave me a scarf. Other than that, all's quiet." Rocking back a little more, Bel finishes the deadpan recitation with an open-handed gesture, as though making Miles a present of the whole impossible situation. Just another day at the office, Admiral, nothing unusual at all.
