vendetta: (does he think he's a model or what)

[ 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. ]

[Nick's phone doesn't give him much light on the video feed, but no worries: his glowing eyes will let Kaz know there's someone there.]

As someone on the 'buried' end of all this, I appreciate the help in coordinating a rescue effort. Do things like this happen here often?

I've been here less than a week, and this is the second time I've found myself on the wrong end of some mishap. First it was giant bats, and now it's being buried alive.

[Well, as alive as he could be considered.]

I guess I should consider myself lucky they at least gave us these phones.

[Okay, this is good. This guy seems like he knows what he's doing and can organize everything a lot better than Chris had been trying to do.]

We started doing a little coordinating on Hope's post over here, for taking coordinates and who's digging and whatever.

[Hopefully it helps.]

Yeah, no problem.

[Being able to have done anything to help makes him feel a little better, especially since...]

I'm not. Above ground, I mean.

I'm a synth, so no need to worry about my air supply. Food either, though I'd prefer not to be left down here until my insides rust.

[Nick had hoped that line might give the man some kind of explanation, and apparently, it did.]

Close enough. Can't see why they'd choose to bury someone like me, but at least I'm not suffering. It's a shame we don't know who's buried where so the first out would be those who really need it.

Thanks. I just figure it's better to try and help than freak out.

[And he is both naturally the calm type and has had a lot of experience lately in keeping focused in a crisis, but this is still just the first day of this event and he's not sure how long he'll be able to keep it up.]

[And here's Mr. Hashtag Helpful himself.]

Good, someone here does have some sense about all this. I was beginning to wonder.

um

I'm probably better as a back-up, but I'll dig as much as I can.

It's Chris. I know you said your name in the post, but what part of it do you actually want to go by?

[He's guessing not the whole thing, but hey maybe he's wrong. And he can definitely use the distraction of texting, yes.]

I mean I had my guts clawed out by a yeti during the snowstorm and I'm a ghost.

I'm ... mostly here sometimes but the guy who can make me stronger is buried and I can't tell which one is him so there's like a 50/50 chance I might vanish.

[Nick's good nature shows as he lets out a low, single laugh.]

If it was pure programming, I'd be checking my warranty to see if it was still good, since someone didn't give me enough brains to keep my guard up in this place. Guess you learn some things the hard way.

Okay, cool. Yeah I'd probably mangle it.

[Not for lack of trying to say it right, but still.]

How long have you been here?
