"Um. Um. Sorry. I could get a cleaner wand?"

"If you'd prefer a place to wash-up and change there's a bathroom over there and we can have someone bring clothes there right away."

"I'm curious to try a cleaner wand, actually, though I might still want the shower depending on how thorough it is!" says Pahatun.

Niola gets a cleaner wand and waves it over the spill - it makes a soft humming noise and shines a light, the mess disappearing in the process. Pahatun might still feel the slightest layer of mess still left under his clothes if he's very sensitive.

"Well, that'll probably save the outfit, but I'd just as soon still have a rinse and a change if it's no trouble, thank you."

"Of course."

And he can be directed to a nearby bathroom with a shower.

He rinses off quick enough and pops out to put on a supplied rectangle in a fetching manner and rejoins the dinner table.

Where Commander Neh is being questioned by her neighbor.

"What's your role on the ship?" Nidace Sotra is asking him.

"I'm the Head of Security, and also the Chief Tactical Officer. Also I'm First Officer but that doesn't come up much."

"That's a lot of hats, how'd you come by that many jobs?"

"Head of Security and Chief Tactical Off-icer are combined a lot of the time, since they cover similar things. First officer usually has some other job they do most of the time - since it just means you're the person who's in charge after the captain."

"I assume you'd have to have a security protocol either way, but does it come up much in your adventures?"

"Security or First Officer?"

"Security; you already said First Officer doesn't."

"Came up a lot for a while, hasn't come up so recent-ly. Though I was on your shuttle here just in case, didn't 'spect it to matter."

"Oh, that would have been embarrassing if we'd managed to cause an incident right off the bat, though I'm admittedly not sure where they got the Voan."

"Tapa had them, I think."

"Well, I hope they screened her." Shrug.

"For what?"

"Not being likely to cause a security incident."

"Ah. I assume they did."

Neh should. Probably say things without specific prompting or something.

"Amenta has been a lot calmer than I'm used to."

"Oh, what are you used to?"

"War."

Neh is not very good at conversations.

"- with whom?"
