Chapter 1, meeting room three
Alexei switches his dataslate to display the actually-relevant reports for the departments under his command and personal observations that he’s compiled over the last few weeks before sliding it over to her. This includes a list of the Lament's vehicle assets, a chart of the vessel's main crew departments (the Mechanicus contingent ends in a simple box labelled OMNISSIANIC HIERARCHY, while he's fairly sure Vormav's branch is out of date, but exactly who is under him is a number known only to Vormav and the Emperor Himself) with key appointment holders highlighted. Vormav, himself and Tesla are close to the top, with only Searlait above them, as well as a brief summary of events that have taken place since the demise of Captain Velspar up to Searlait's arrival.
Since Searlait presumably has working eyes, he does not mention much about their contents, instead talking about the details which are not covered within. Despite being more open following the removal of the bug, he still sticks to a just-the-facts approach, a clear sign that he's trying to assess the boundaries he has with the new boss, especially since he's fairly new to the position himself after the previous First Officer Commander Locke retired.
"I will arrange for Master Asgard to liaise with Miss Ă“rlaith regarding the retinue in question, and I will have their quarters moved closer to your apartments."
