Did the Reading [locked to New Hires except Kokichi and Mac]

[An hour or two after Brand vanished from his first post by flinging his comm across the room, a follow up appears. He appears to be much calmer and to have moved to the bunks.]

This is good work, Lonestar.

My name is Brand and my specialties are security and combat. Having gotten a run-down on Planker from someone whose skill level I'm familiar with 1) fuck that asshole, and 2) I'm willing to offer extra-curricular training: stamina, situational awareness, hand-to-hand, knives, guns, and explosives, plus a few other things. Don't fucking ask me to keep you motivated, because I will.

Other than that, I do what Rune does, but without magic. [He sighs a most put-upon sigh.] Count this as my AMA, but no fucking guarantees on getting answers to everything you ask.

A few specific messages:

Armstrong: You still doing assessments for combat instruction? Let me know when there's a hole in your schedule. Not a question: your stuff is two doors down and across the hall. I've got fucking dibs on Rune as a roommate.

Bunny: I'd be obliged if you stuck with darker chocolate for Rune, otherwise he eats it all in one go and I have to deal with the fallout.

[He's got a few other things to say, but he's going to reach out privately for those.]

[Rune opens his mouth as if to challenge that, sees the comm, and then falters. His eyebrows knit together suspiciously – he doesn't know what that elaboration would entail, but he does trust Brand to embarrass him in front of friends as much as possible.

So instead he just jabs Brand in the side. Lovingly.]
