[ 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!]

[These are, after all, somewhat trying times. Still, Sayid does look...fine. Perhaps a little tired, but nowhere near exhaustion. He's definitely been better at pacing himself that other people in the Fleet, and it shows.
It's not that he doesn't care about the fate of these people. It's just that he doesn't necessarily have the drive to wreck himself over this, and as such he's more aware that driving himself into the ground will do no one any favor.
In short order, the family is ready to set off again. Sayid's attention drifts as he surveys the crowd. He's helping this family, of course, but it's important to keep an eye on the larger movement.
After a few minutes, however, his eyes return to the family, and then to Carl.]
Is this what you've been doing? Helping people to the landing areas?
