[ It's not as if Miller's pleased that half of Hadriel's captives have apparently been buried alive, but this also grants him an opportunity he'd been craving. It places him back into a position that he's come to miss and yearn for since his arrival here. He can't fight the monsters who come with the newcomers, he can't convince the gods to send them home when they don't even know how the process works, but he can organize people. And this situation, with Hope's set of coordinates? This is his bread and butter.
The broadcast comes from a desk in the main living area of Kaz's apartment. He's propped his phone and adjusted it so that it shows him from the shoulders up. A number of people here already know about his disabilities, but anyone who doesn't should stay that way for now. They might see his missing limbs and his need for a crutch as a weakness, which will make them less likely to listen to him. ]
Fear's really done a number on us this time, hasn't he?
[ He shakes his head, dismayed but not defeated. He assumes it's Fear, anyway. Who else would be behind this? Sitting with his back straight and his beret set in place, Miller takes on the air of command. ]
This we can do something about, though, unlike the blizzard. Anyone who's above ground and willing to help dig someone up, report in. I'll assign you a set of coordinates. Then, report back with whether or not you were successful in digging someone up -- and if so, who it was.
[ That's all simple enough, but Kaz can guess that both those who've been buried and those who haven't are in a panic, and a good leader needs to address something like that. ]
I'm sure that many of you have friends who are in need of your help. [ His brow knits, a quiet show of empathy. ] But right now, we need to focus on getting each and every person dug up, so even if you end up rescuing a stranger, just keep in mind that I'll have probably sent someone else to free your loved one. The important thing is that we make sure each plot is covered so that no one is overlooked.
[ Someone just made a helpful announcement about how awful it would be to suffocate in one of those coffins, after all. ]
For those who are curious, my name is Kazuhira Miller, and I have experience with organizing an army. Getting a few people dug up should be a cakewalk if everyone keeps their calm -- and if enough people want to help.
[ Maybe he's guilting people a little with that last point. It might have to do with the fact that he's self-conscious that he can't contribute to any of the physical requirements of this particular crisis. Then again, that had been the case with taking down Cipher too, and they'd still pulled it off. ]
And if anyone who's trapped is watching this... hang in there. We're on our way.
[ With a firm nod, he ends the feed. ]

It sounds like he should have kept his distance from the girl to begin with, but there's no real point in lecturing him. ]
Even so, if the same thing had happened to me... I'd probably be pretty bitter about it. I guess all I can say is that I hope she doesn't show up here.
[ They don't need some traumatized kid running around trying to attack people. ]

[Even if he did hold any resentment toward Shiro over what happened, he wouldn't wish this place on her.]
I'd like to take a set of coordinates.

[ Miller's suspicion had been that this stranger enjoyed sending people into a hysteria, but then didn't want to do anything personally to fix the problem.
Sure, he isn't out in the field, but that's because he isn't physically able.
After a brief pause, he gives out a set of coordinates. Right now, beggars can't be choosers. ]
voice.
[Throwing people into mindless hysteria isn't Beyond's brand of chaos; even at his worst, the destruction he wrought was tightly contained and served a very specific purpose.]
But I'll do my best.
voice.
[ It's not exactly a commonly learned skill. Digging them, maybe, to bury bodies, but going the other way around generally wasn't done. ]
Just do what you can. [ And stop freaking people out. ]
