Who: Kaidan Alenko
Broadcast: Fleetwide video!
Action: Vaguely planetside, if desired
When: Today!
[The second Kaidan turns on the feed, the sound is distant and barely controlled chaos. He's moved into a side room near one of the space ports in the area, and the air is filled with the buzzing and chiming of a great many comm feeds going off in rapid succession, the constant chatter of traffic controllers almost a drone of noise over the top of it all. In addition, the noise outside can just be made out - the terrified shouting of civilians and the low whir and roar of engines as shuttles come and go.
Kaidan doesn't look scared at all. Strained, at best, but his gaze on the camera is one of steely focus.]
I've done what I can to reach out the Lyukite military to help coordinate their efforts down here. I'm sure most of the captains are ready and willing to lend their ships, but if we deploy our shuttles we can double our efforts.
I need a count of how many operational shuttles we have in the fleet, their capacity, and the names of a pilot for each that's willing to do some heavy duty for the next couple of days, and then I'll patch that list over to the command center down here so they can add us to the schedule of evacuation and supply runs.
The more smoothly this runs, the better.
I've had to stand by and watch a world get destroyed because I couldn't do anything about it. [His voice cracks, just a little] But not this time. Not a chance.

I don't necessarily need pilot augments for the shuttles, but we could absolutely use someone down on the ground for maintenance. We're gonna be putting a lot of wear and tear on these ships in the next couple of days.

[A bare suggestion of a smirk] Luckily I don't think they're packed up the espresso machine down here yet. Something about it being lower on the priority list of supplies slated for transport to the station.

And I'll see you when you pause to fuel your shuttle? Stay safe out there.

...Thanks. [Kaidan out]
