VIDEO/TEXT;
[A new video post pings on your cool new communication device! It opens automatically, but seems to display the option for text-based, too, if you'd prefer not to have to watch or listen. An attachment is also present. The camera clicks on, centered on the head and shoulders of a woman with a military bearing, at ease—but no less businesslike.]
Hello all, and thank you for taking the time to listen to me. I've provided a text transcription, for those who'd prefer it.
To those of you who don't know me, my name is Shepard. Before Thisavrou, I lived on board the Moira, the ship many of us were pulled to—but before the Moira, I grew up on, and lived aboard ships and man-made satellites my entire life—and if there's one thing they've always consistently needed, it's routine maintenance, and reliable, ship or station-wide communication.
I know many of you have already taken the repair and renewal of this station into your own hands, and that just goes to show what an incredible group of people we have on board right now. The teamwork that went into the development of the new communication devices are a clear tribute to that effort. But while a lot of this has been accomplished simply via word-of-mouth, going forward, it would be good to have a public list of who is working on what, and where.
The goal is to compile a clear record of where people are at—so we know what areas require more help, or who people can contact if they want to volunteer to assist. What I'm not looking to do is push people into roles they're not comfortable with taking—this is all volunteer-based, to build our current home into something better.
So: here's the categories and areas I have so far: General station cleanup, including organization, pest control, and so on. Sanitation and life support, including air, water, and waste maintenance. Medical, including cryo technology. Technology and engineering, including maintenance and improvements. Bartering block occupants. Greenhouse and garden, including maintenance and improvements. General security, including guarding, shifts rota and patrols. Sports and leisure, including the bar, gym, and sundry entertainment areas.
Please feel free to add to that, and please let me know if I've forgotten anything. Once again, I am not any kind of authority on this—this is strictly a publicly-available volunteer chart, and I am merely providing the space for us to organize it in one place. You don't have to take part, or even acknowledge me in the slightest. I have avoided filling out any names ahead of time to allow people to place themselves where they feel they fit best, or where they have already been active.
Once again, thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from all of you soon. If you have any questions, comments, or otherwise, feel free to message me directly, or come by and talk to me in person. I currently reside in Sector... [There's a pause—had she ever said it out loud?—but there's no change in her professional demeanor as she continues:] ...Sad Cat, Unit 8-10. I look forward to meeting with you.
[The video clicks off, but the text transcription stays visible—as does the attached sheet with all the categories she listed. The blanks go on and on, inviting you to fill them out yourself, with zero limits—adding other people you know, or volunteering yourself!]
[OOC: HERE'S THAT CHART AGAIN, and if you just want to fill it out without replying—no issue at all! This is just Shepard's own on-network attempt to organize some widely-visible revival efforts to help get people involved! If any major changes or decisions go down, remember to let the mods know over here!]

[ he really doesn't like feeling this useless, but then again, he doesn't have a deep incentive to keep all of this up either. ]
no subject
[Once you have replied, you cannot escape!!]
Find anything interesting or new? Always good to know a little more.
no subject
[ unfortunately. though, if he found something particularly interesting, he might keep it to himself.
for a while at least. ]
Has anyone set up a shooting range yet? Might be useful, and I've got experience in teaching.
[ seeing as he was an officer back home. ]
no subject
[HINT HINT]
Shooting range is definitely something to start getting a move on with—from experience, I'd say the bullet trap is the biggest holdup. We've got to make something that'll stop almost any bullet from going further than it. I've got a few ideas, but I'm no engineer, just a soldier.
no subject
[ says the man who's always lying through his teeth... ]
Afraid I'm not much help either. I was an officer, but developing technology was not my strong suit. [ E-RANK R&D. ]
no subject
I'm more renowned for breaking technology than making it. [sorry literally every major achievement of science and tech that she's accidentally destroyed in the past few years!!!] Got a few people in mind, though—our tech team is looking pretty sharp so far. Besides, with a security team that large, it's going to need to be sooner rather than later.
no subject
Not just the security team. Some of the non-combatants might do with a little extra training, especially if we end up facing another hostile force. Who really knows what's waiting out there?
[ and hey, not everyone can be special forces, now can they? ]
