[ Hello, crew of the Moira. If you look at your MID devices, you'll be seeing one baby-faced space marine covered in kittens. Well, not covered, but he's got three climbing all over him while he's piled under a blanket. There's a ginger one, a fluffy grey tabby, and a chocolate brown-almost-black one, all of which seem to be enjoying their new climbing post. Wash, meanwhile, has a wide grin on his face. It's been too long since he's been around cats, okay? And he loves the little buggers. ]

I'm guessing I'm not the only one who's noticed the kittens in the garden? And if I am, well, there're kittens in the garden. And they're pretty adorable. I'm not entirely sure where they came from, but if anyone else wants some, I'd recommend getting down there and adopting one or two. They could use some warm love in these temperatures.

[ To emphasize, he shivers a little, though his expression doesn't shift a bit. He's quite literally thrilled by this turn of events. Kittens, guys. KITTENS. ]

I stayed and played with as many as I could for a while to keep them active, but there's only so much I could do, you know? So I grabbed these guys [ he gestures with his shoulders to the kittens climbing in and out of the blanket hanging over him ] and brought them back to my room. Figured I'd give them a home.

And now for the other reason for this broadcast--I could use some name suggestions. [ He doesn't even look sheepish. He legitimately wants help with cat names and either doesn't care or doesn't realize how ridiculous that sounds. ] So, if you have any, maybe leave them for me?

Oh! And I'm Wash, by the way. Agent Washington, technically, but everyone just calls me Wash.

[ And there the feed ends, with Wash still grinning his stupid "CATS" grin and a kitten batting at his chest. ]

Thought so.

( ivan can sympathize, but he's not going to because someone made him relive the experience. )

...Sorry.

[ He feels bad now, shrinking down a little on his end. ]

I, uhm. Shouldn't have pushed you to tell me. I think we both would have been happier without that.

( he shrugs, not the type to hold grudges with people who don't try and get him killed. )

Well now you know. ( oh wait right ) Ivan Vorpatril. Lieutenant Lord Ivan Vorpatril -- but ranks from home don't seem to mean much here.

Oh--

[ They're introducing themselves now? That's something he can do without upsetting anyone, at least. ]

Yeah, ranks don't seem to really matter here, but... Agent Washington. It's nice to meet you.

You too, Washington. Keep the cats, and uh. Take care of them.

( he's not good at names though, he doesn't have any suggestions. )

I will, don't worry.

[ He smiles a little, reassuringly. If there's one thing he can do, it's take care of cats. ]

Thanks.
