[voice] - let hope burn in your eyes

[ryuuzaki]

[Locked to all characters remaining on the ship; backdated to the 18th.]

I'd like to speak with anyone who's interested in coordinating a structured response to the recent disappearances. If we pool our resources in terms of anything technical that needs to be done, and in terms of things like creating small teams and scheduling the usage of rescue vehicles, things will probably run more smoothly. Retrieving as many people as possible is of paramount importance.

Those of you who have experience in search and rescue, on-the-ground stealth, investigation, intelligence work, and programming and electronics would probably be the most useful… but if that doesn't include you, and you're interested, there should certainly still be a way for you to help. I realize that many of you probably already have ideas about how to proceed, but it couldn't hurt to discuss them so that we don't interfere with each other.

To begin with: if you're able to make contact with anyone who's missing, see if they can capture and send some images of their general surroundings -- but only if they can do so without being seen and can preferably send the results privately. Having that kind of information ahead of time could be overwhelmingly valuable.

Let's do whatever we can.

Unfortunately, I'm not an engineer either. [His tone becomes thoughtful: he's obviously going through a mental list.] Mr. Stark seems to be indisposed, and Luke Skywalker seems to be gone entirely... have you taken this up with Mr. Rinzler? He may be able to point you towards someone who can help.

How's your skill as a pilot?

[highlyintuitive]

Not yet, it's been a personal project.

[ She wasn't exactly expecting to have someone she cared about kidnapped. ]

I'm very good.

[ryuuzaki]

Do you have an idea of how long the repairs to the engine might take?

[highlyintuitive]

She'll fly fine if no one has time. If I have help it could be done in a day.

[ryuuzaki]

I think you have at least a day, though I wouldn't push it. See if Mr. Rinzler can tell you anything.

One other thing: the Lantern is fast, but can she move quietly?

[highlyintuitive]

In what sense?

[ Since as long as she's not doing a full burn she's no louder than any other ship. ]

I removed the tracking beacons. No markers for where we came from.

[ryuuzaki]

Only how much attention she's likely to attract down there, particularly if you go in at a quiet time of day. I suppose it doesn't matter much, if she can outrun pursuers without necessarily being linked to the Moira.

Out of my own curiosity: how long have you been flying?

[highlyintuitive]

Almost a year now.

[ Which is probably a stunning endorsement of her skills. ]

I've had a lot of practice. We had to run a lot back home.
