[Video, Thursday morning]

[professorwolf]

[There's a rueful werewolf on the screen this morning, with some fields in the background of the miniature aethographer's video feed. He's obviously outside, on the edge of town. It looks a bit odd with him completely lacking a coat like everyone else out and about at this hour, but then, he doesn't really need one.]

Ah. This is Randolph Lyall. I could use some help from anyone who might be available....

[And he turns the camera to show a shaggy, vaguely wolfish-looking dog with tawny fur on a rope he's using as a leash to keep it from running away. It's sporting a patented Outer Authority collar and it looks rather hangdog.]

I don't think the poor thing needs to have that stuck on its neck, now, do you?

The plague may not be a problem for you, Alenko, but I assure you it is still a problem.

[He's not terribly serious in the prod, though, and is quick to add, with a smile,]

I am glad you are feeling more yourself, however.

Want to wrap this? I need to close out some threads so I can make new ones. :D

[standsentinel]

That's not what I-- I didn't mean--

[Terribly serious or not, it does provoke an Awkward Alenko to appear, before the major catches himsel f with a cough and a very mild glower at Lyall as if he suspects him of poking fun.]

Yeah. It's... nice. You definitely appreciate health more when you lose it for a while. But how's the shade working for you? OK to wait until the third shows up...?

works for me! since Ruby-thread kinda died, and we have a full moon log to start anyhow...

[Lyall chuckles and pats Kaidan's shoulder affectionately.]

I was only teasing, my friend. And I am fine here to rest. You can tell me what you are turning your hand to now, in the workshop, if anything. I haven't had time to drop by in weeks, it seems, but hopefully soon there will be more time.
