[ On the night of the 16th, the feeling of tension and horrid anticipation comes to a head. Everything stops when the sun goes down-- even the ever-present music in the hoppingest part of the city center. One by one, everyone turns their eyes to the skies. The young and old alike pour out of their houses, some in bare feet, and they point to the velvety blanket of stars.
It takes a second to find it, especially if one is unaccustomed to the starscape. But even a casual observer can see it.
A brightly-shining star, larger than the others, and growing larger.
An announcement cuts across all communication channels that encourages people to evacuate to the space station, but it’s clear that these are just people and they’ll need some help. Supplies, equipment, organization, there’s something for everyone to do.
Civilization is disrupted by a panicked stampede of people vying for limited seats aboard spacefaring craft. Within hours, there will be crushed glass, looting, and chaos.
The clock is ticking. Will you help? Or would you rather watch the dying gasps of a Singing Planet from a safe distance? ]
[OOC: Please see this post for plot details. Phase two has begun! Feel free to use this post as a reaction post, mingle, etc. or make your own!]

She goes a little wide-eyed, but shakes that off and quirks an eyebrow at him. ]
... Well. At least you've found something to do.
no subject
I'd love to have some company, if you feel like it. Just give Takeshi a call!
[He jabs a finger toward himself, pleased.]
fjdskal i love him and want to protect him from jacqli who is a horrible person lmfao!
Okay... Takeshi. If I feel the need to carry supplies, I'll call you.
[ It's not a lie! She didn't just lie to a kid! It's just also, you know, very highly unlikely that she's going to feel the need to carry supplies. Yep. ]
bless ye, dont worry he's dealt with the worst of em
[Ah, but moral officer skills. He's used to being the cheerleader of the group, mostly after the Tranquility; that was his job there, you know! To boost morale. Sometimes with speeches (though really, maybe they were just inspired by him being small and cute, just don't tell Takeshi).]
What's your name, by the way? Since we're teammates now.
no subject
I guess we are, aren't we? You can call me Jacqli.
no subject
[He offers a hand out, for a good and proper handshake; now this he learned back home, but really needed to practice more of, because it's important to shake hands with a new teammate, right?]
And welcome to the fleet! Sorry it's all kinda butts right now...
[#professional captain
Thanks Heather for the awful lessons in vocabulary.]
no subject
Whatever. She's not about to be mean to a kid because she thinks human things like this are ridiculous. So she shakes his hand, even if it's a little hesitant. "Butts" though... Okay, that's amusing. She actually cracks a bit of a smirk. ]
It's not your fault it's butts. Don't apologize.
[ Bless this Heather person and her fun word choice lessons. ]
no subject
He looks pleased either way.]
Then no apologies! But I'll keep a eye out for you out there in case you need anything.
[He's already making moves to rush off, though he lingers for an appropriate farewell.]
Don't be a stranger, okay, Miss Jacqli?!
no subject
... ALSO DAMMIT MAYBE SHE WANTS TO BE A STRANGER STOP BEING A KID THAT SHE CAN'T BE MEAN TO WOW. ]
I--.... All right. [ Beat. ] Don't do anything stupid out there, Takeshi.
no subject
It's gonna be a long, long week, Miss Jacqli. Stay safe, too!]
