>>6138569For a moment, you consider making a plan to start adjusting, after all over here it's just now early morning. But then a thought hits you: why don't you ask them how you should do this? They're the ones who're going to have to adjust as well, why not ask everyone on the ship? With that thought in mind, you focus your ki sense, finding whoever is currently on the bridge to find Orlen there. So, you give him a quick telepathic call, telling him your plan. To which he readily agrees, and as you end the link he opens the ship-wide comms, calling out to everyone.
“Attention. All crew, report to the mess hall. Repeat. All crew, report to the mess hall.” Orlen says, then ends the communication. Everyone looks around confused, but your wife immediately turns her focus on you. Staring hard at you, as she clearly knows you're up to something.
“What's that about?” Maz asks, looking to his twin. Who turns back from the kitchen and shrugs, slumping back in her seat.
“What's this?” Okira asks, looking from the speaker to you. And as she looks at you her expression changes from one of confusion to anticipation, clearly recognizing your intent. But Junior doesn't, getting up out of his seat.
“Who was that? I'mma go find out-” he starts, you holding out a hand to him. Which causes your children to all freeze, everyone else realizing you'd called this meeting.
“We have something important we need to talk about. All of us. So, would you sit back down?”
“Huh? I mean, sure.” your youngest replies, sitting back down and looking expectantly to you. But you don't say anything else, waiting on everyone to pile in. Which they all do, everyone getting in with Dr. White and Haathe bringing up the rear. Once everyone's inside and seated you stand up, everyone's gaze going to you as you begin to speak.
“As I'm sure you all are aware, it is only morning now.” you say, getting a few chuckles from some of the older crewmates. “Despite the long day, we've been asked to not only take up position here by King Vegeta the Fourth, but to also adjust our sleep schedule appropriately. To always have some of our people active and alert, leaving no windows for others to sneak onto a more undefended planet. So. With that said, I am open to suggestions on how to change our schedule. TO more easily adjust to flipping our day/night cycles, adjusting to this new time. If anyone has suggestions, let us all hear them.”
