[Video+Action, post moon-warp]
Hello all!
This is Jack, from my little nook in the convoy where I make and repair clothes.
[He smiles at the camera, showing off the fluffy little fox ears he is now sporting instead of regular ears, and the white streaks in his blue-gray hair, then turns his radio device around to show the little shop. It is, frankly, less like a shop and more like a workspace, with fabric in cabinets on the walls and a pair of tables and some chairs, with more fabric strewn across them, some in good condition and some in less-good condition.]
I just wanted all of our new people to know that if the moon warp ruined your clothes, I can probably help. I have mostly figured out trousers, I think, and I am still working on proper shirts, though I can make, um, cloaks and drapes and things.
[He sets the camera down on one of the tables, and sits down to face it.]
I did want to, er, also tell everyone something else. I know we are all... changing. Into something we might call monsters, some of us. I just wanted to say I was a monster before I came here. Not a-- not a bad person, no, not a cruel person, but a werewolf. I turn into a beast once a month on the full moon, like moon warps here.
So. So I just wanted everyone to know, I have done this before. This changing, this becoming something else for a time. I don't know if it will help anyone, but if it can-- I wanted everyone to know.
[He has "come out" piecemeal to various people, here and there, and it's gone well. But now he's doing it to everyone, to people he's never talked to. It's a little scary, but he's doing it.
And now that he's done it, he hesitates, then fumbles for the radio to turn it off without further comment.
He will be available in his shop most evenings, for people to come by to get clothing repaired or measured for, or for people to ask questions, and of course he's around the convoy or in his van during the day when they're on the move.]

[Sometimes it was even on purpose. Sometimes it had been people he cared about. He holds out his hand for the measuring tape back, refusing to be baited into trading angry words.]
If you are worried, SecUnit, then we will come up with plans. The way I do for my wolf form. That way you and everyone around you will know what to do if you become a danger. With all of us having these changes, not many people are helpless humans anymore.
no subject
Sure.
[It wants to say it's different somehow, but it's fought the wolf. It knows that it's actually pretty hard to effectively contain something it doesn't want to kill when it's a wild animal and not a weak human. So even though it wants to argue, it just. Doesn't. Because that'd be shitty to Jack. Also, more importantly;]
... Tying up or whatever isn't going to work. For either of us.

[He collects his measuring tape and turns back to his table, sorting through piles of fabric.]
Chains do work, though, for the most part. Do you have a preference for color?
no subject
[SecUnit sounds - annoyed by this, actually. It thought better of Serph.
It's partially this annoyance that means Jack's abrupt change of topics throws it for a loop. What color of chains? Wait, no. Right, the masks.]
Whatever's dark.
no subject
Moon warp things. They wound up fighting each other, and I got away.
[Not the whole story, but as much as he's willing to share without their permission. It's not great, but he can't really be that mad about it, either.]
I've talked it over with Serph and we're going to work out a better plan for next time. If you would like to be more directly involved with them both, next time, I wouldn't say no.
no subject
[It's not promising anything, but - there's a look on its face that says it's almost certainly going to do that.
It's Security. of course it's going to.]
How long do you need to finish these?
