[ It took Harry some time to decide what sort of first impression to make upon the community of the Moira, weighing the options of being well open about things or to put up a smokescreen. He chooses the latter because it's easier to learn things this way. Text also obscures tone, something he prefers. ]

I find myself rather out of my depth in this situation. Space is certainly not my forte in the slightest, unless there are aliens in need of a well tailored suit. Most of my experience with space ships has been through peripheral experience with science fiction.

My name is Harry Hart, I work as a tailor in London. Or I did previous to making my unexpected trip through the Ingress.

It seems that my lot aboard ship is to continue this work. I've been given equipment and fabric in order to better upkeep the uniforms we have all been given. If you arrange an appointment I would be glad to assist in making sure that, should your uniform be ill fit, your issue is corrected to the best of my ability.

I would like to note that my experience has thus far been exclusively with humans. If there are people of... different species aboard I would be glad to work with you to ensure the best possible outcome.

[Done.]

I could use some help with mine. The trousers aren't made for digitigrade legs. I don't know what you could do with them, but they're pretty uncomfortable right now...

I would be happy to try and help find a solution. As I've never worked with alternative skeletal structures I'm sure it will be quite the learning experience. By any chance do you have samples of clothing that does fit your frame properly? It might help me reverse engineer a proper pattern.

[ This duty certainly promises to be interesting duty he's landed. At the very least he's going to learn more about alien body types. ]

To be honest, I've never worn clothes like this before, so we're both in unfamiliar territory.
All I've got is my old environmental suit. I'm not sure that's going to help, it's mostly nanoweave, armour and circuitry, but you could take a look?

If anything see the way it is put together may give me some ideas for how to construct a proper fit. Admittedly when I've worked on original patterns before there was never a need to take alternative anatomies into account while working.

If it isn't considered impolite, may I ask what your species is referred to as?

No, it's fine! I'm a quarian. I'm the only one here, so don't worry about asking questions. I already had to explain to some of the medical crew, and that was a lot weirder.

[She might be a quarian, but that doesn't mean she knows anything about their biology.]

But I can definitely bring you my suit, though. Just let me know whenever you're free.

What kind of clothes do you usually make?
