[He is opting for video this time, so the children that aren't human have someone also inhuman around, even if the only sign he's not entirely are the bones coming out his arms. Also, it's strange having to introduce himself again, but a lot of his cheekiness and bastardry is subdued to something more caring at the moment.]

My name is Gaheris Rhade, and I'm one of the adults on board. If you have an emergency, or if you're frightened, please contact someone. In the meantime, what do you like to eat.

Also, if you're an adult, please contact me privately.

[And his tone is back to normal.] If anyone is still themselves, please let me know.

[Private to Dylan | Video]

You had better be an adult. [This almost sounds like a threat.]

[Private to Tony Stark | Video]

[He's still a little pissed that Tony occasionally invokes the name of the Ubermensch on people which is kind of awful in his culture. But he remembers Paddy made pizza for the kids last time, and while he can follow a recipe he needs all the help he can get.] I need your help in the kitchen. You remember those pizzas you were referring to before? I require your assistance in making a number of them.

I'm unaffected. Just let me finish helping take down a goddamn homicidal seven year old and I'll check in for lunch.

[She doesn't sound happy.]

What's happening? [All business.]

A few weeks ago a precognitive told her that she was going to end up transformed into a much more typical Uberwald werewolf. Sadistic, wanting to eat people. She asked me to help contain her when it happened. I did. But she had blood on her mouth when we found her.

Fucking Admiral.

[Goddammit, Angua. Why didn't you warn more people?] Do you know who it belongs to?

...no. But I am searching for bodies or blood trails.

The Douchebag In Charge set it up this way. So we'd not only have to deal with a rampaging werewolf, but dead or endangered kids in the process. I can't believe any Wardens actually believe for an instant that he's a good guy.

I think he's a malfunctioning AI, but I'll worry about that later. If you need my help to search, I will make the time. [Rhade isn't going to put up with any endangered babies.]

I'm almost done with the public areas and unclaimed rooms. So far all I've found are wall drawings and stolen food. [She sounds tired and angry, but she doesn't do any further bitching.] I'll let you know if I find anything.

Once this is done I need to talk to you about something. It should be low stress.

Alright. Good work.

And don't worry about coming in. This is more important than food preparation.

Nah, Gaheris, I will need to stress bake after this. I don't make food for people just out of the kindness of my heart. It really relaxes me. And kids eat a lot.

You make good food. I'll make sure that supplies are ready. Ivy's younger self was interested in vegetarianism, so if you know any vegan recipes for cookies she may appreciate the consideration.

Sure, no problem. It's easy as hell to go vegan on peanut butter cookies.

Oh great, some of the crayon graffiti crew have discovered dicks.

Maybe that's the Admiral, too.

[Line-face, unimpressed humor. It's how it's done.]

Wouldn't put it past him.
