[Rhade sounds a little distant when he speaks. Less forceful than usual, because he's having a What is the point? moment. His tone is a little cracked and weary, even.]

If anyone sees Kara Thrace, please inform her her that I liberated one of her bottles of alcohol from her new living establishment. If anyone sees Diziet Sma? -Well. You're not going to. She's back in her pod aboard the ship to last until the power gives out, anyway.

I would recommend if anyone who woke up in the ship has recently disappeared, you go and look for them there. It may be a sign of further malfunction.

[And he shuts off the feed.]


*OOC: Early before the windstorm on Wednesday, before the fire has started.

Easier said than done.

I'm not an engineer. My technical expertise relates to sabotage, not fixing. There's nothing I can do in this case.

[And it obviously irritates him no end.]

Then we'll work together. We're certainly not going to give up.

The last time many lives relied on me, I failed. [His cockiness isn't anywhere nearby at the moment. He's keenly aware of his limitations, despite desperately trying to help people recently.]

It would be in their best interest if you found more reliable assistance.

[It takes him a moment, but when he replies his voice is firm and intent.] This is a prime moment to make up for it, then.

I can't. I haven't done it yet. [Oh, to have one's future walking around and staring you in the face on occasion. It makes for a complicated sense of loss.]

What is it that you need?

...Ah. [Oh, he hates it when this happens.] It really is best not to dwell on things you haven't done yet.

And a bit of optimism would be a nice start.

[ARGH why does he have to be so insufferably optimistic it probably doesn't help that he has a thing for blond-haired, blue eyed idealists.]

I'll help.

[Skeptically. But it's a start.] If you can find a way for me to.
