Do you have things under control over there now?

If so, could someone find the time to fill me in on exactly what has happened, beyond what I've gathered from the network? What's the damage to the ship? How badly is the Captain injured? What about everyone else?

I'll come and meet -

The Victoria II itself has sustained great damage from what I can alread--Oww...hell..that hurts.

Eh? Oh, yeah...

The Victoria II has sustained great damage because of the explosives but these damages can be repaired easily in about a week or so. As for its crew...

Many of us are out of commission right now.

[-Pauses-]

...even the Admiral, Vimes.

Buggering hell...

I'd gathered the Admiral was out of it. But, on a scale of one to dead, how bad? If you don't know any more, fair enough, it's just...

I would like to know exactly what kind of crew I'm coming back to. I should have been there in the first place, after all.

Sounds like the crew's going to need more time to recover than the ship...speaking of which, Seagill, how are you? You really don't sound too good.

Heh, well...judging by how frantic it was in the medical ward a few hours ago, I am guessing we lost allot of soldiers during the bombing incident.
The smell of blood became the new fragrance here aboard this ship but now the chaos has calmed down significantly.

Plenty of the officers were badly injured as well...

The Admiral lost his eye, Vimes. His left eye, I think...
I should know since I was there when the bomb went off in the engine room. I took the brunt of it for the Admiral, tried to shield him from the explosion but...

The shrapnel hit him...in the eye and when I first woke up in the engine room, I saw the nurse and the doctor working on yanking it out.

So yeah…
I am not feeling good or looking good.

...if you took the brunt of it and he's the one that's lost an eye, you must be in pretty bad shape yourself.

Not having a good time of it lately, are you, Seagill?

[sighs] The crew's suffered extensive injuries, some worse than others, but there have been no deaths thank god. Everybody who was involved in this mess is going to get out of it alive, including the Admiral. [there's a pause, and the sound of a foot tapping, before he continues] He received some...nasty injuries from the shrapnel, but his life is no longer in danger. However, it will be some time before he heals.

As for what happend... somebody infiltrated the ship, and planted a series of simple explosives in key areas. They were crude and easy to disable, but there were enough of the things placed on the ship to cause everybody a great deal of trouble.

[the pacing returns, but is replaced by the soft creak of leather as he sits down in his chair] Fortunately, we were able to root out enough to prevent lasting damage. The ship's been battered, but she's sturdy enough to make it to Clairborne without us falling from the sky. With some repairs she'll be as good as new - soon I'll send you a detailed list of the materials and ( ... )

Gods... [short pause] Any idea who could have done this, sir? When would anyone not on the crew have had the chance to get all over the ship planting the things without anyone noticing?

[another brief pause]
I've booked myself passage on the mail courier to Claibourne, it's the quickest thing around. I should be there enough before you to have things ready in time if you send me that list when you have it ready.

[ooc: backdated earlier when this post came up]

[he mutters something under his breath, before he lets out a frustrated sigh] None as of yet, but we haven't had time to do really do an investigation. Our biggest concern was getting out while the ship was still in the air. If we find out anything, you'll be the first to know.

As for supplies, I'll send the list right over. Thank you, Vimes.
