Arnwulf
meanwhile back at the ranch sorry hotel forum locked.
Did I manage to get any further with hotel security regarding CCTV of the intruders who fired upon Assana & Noor?
Descriptions, getaway vehicle?
Did the local law enforcement turn up?
To be fair to his in-game character I don't think that after the meeting suddenly closed and adjourned he would choose 'oh let me go tag along to visit the ship in the hope the new captain hires me as crew' when it seems clearly the meeting finished and a few shareholders only went on the inspection during the time he was hassling hotel security.
So unless retrospectively Tiberius brought him along he is in the hotel bar, drinking with the Busai's and any lawyers who stayed behind.

Don't you have that backwards? You are her life partner/plaything.

Indrani had no time to warn Reven, anyway.

Fair point.
It's why we're a dog household, more equal. The dog sometimes pretends to do what we want, and he actually seems pleased to see us when we come home ( even if I just went out for five minutes... ).

I've lost track of where Nālani, noor and Arnwulf are in the timeline compared to those at the ship. Has the journey to the hotel and changing appearance brought us to the same point as waiting for the police Captain, his suits and his experts?

Pranit: At Admin Building/Heading back to Ship with kit
Tiberius: At Admin Building looking at base-supplied power
Indrani: At Bay (in Vacc Suit)
Reven: At Bay (With bubble-suit)
Various Police and Forensics: At Bay
Ngora: Outside Bay chatting up Policeman
Various onlookers: Outside Bay being held back by police

Noor: Nalani's room
Arnwulf: Nalani's room
Hoshiko: Nalani's room (in Noor's carrysack)

Food for 10*: At Bay

OK - It isn't Indrani the second time - and the cat just likes to check out confined spaces, sit on the only item of clean washing in the room and generally make its presence felt!

Yeah, cats be cats

I just thought it'd be funny to react that way. Might have been, if I'd done it IC.

Not all of them. Nālani wears the Vac Suit gloves and her Protec suit to get Hoshiki in her travel-case

That's different...Confined spaces she chooses...good. Other confined spaces...bad.
one of ours used to sleep in the travel case...unless there was a vets visit coming.

I should explain about my reaction to the power thing...
I was at an airport where a mechanic was working in the travel path of an airliner's thrust reverser on one of the engine nacelles. He powered up the aircraft, opened the reversers, and shut the power down. However, he didn't install the safety pins to lock the reverser mechanism.
He's working away, and another crew goes into the cockpit and powers up the plane. The computers automatically cycled the reversers closed, trapping and killing the mechanic.
Bad flashback
