un: rocipilot, video
[The video comes on to show a small group of people. Alex is in front, obviously doing the filming, but behind him are two women - Naomi Nagata and Bobbie Draper - and one man - Amos Burton. You may have met some of them. A little behind them stands Prax Meng, who is looking very awkward, and Joe Miller, who is visibly rolling his eyes.]
Hey there cowboys and cowgirls. [ Alex’s characteristic texan drawl is easy and smooth, and despite the fact that there’s currently no gravity, he doesn’t sound worried.] Hope ya’ll had your magboots on.
Looks like somethin’ in the station’s centrifugal system is jammed up. That’ll be why ya’ll found your breakfast start floatin’ this mornin’. Ya ain’t gonna die, so no panickin’, but we’re gonna need all hands on deck to sort this one out. Now me and my crew here have a lot of experience with space-walk maintenance, but this is a big station. Ain’t no way we can do this by ourselves. But we wanna make sure anyone that’s venturin’ outside isn’t gonna get themselves hurt.
[He raises a hand.] Now my name’s Alex, and these here are Naomi, Bobbie and Amos. [He points to each of them in turn.] We can check over your gear and make sure it ain’t gonna start leakin’ oh-two on ya while you’re out there. We’ll be headin’ out ourselves, but at least one of us’ll be by an airlock at all times.
If anyone is havin’ problems with the weightless side of things - you just give one of us a shout and we’ll try t’ get you set up. Basic rules are - you’re gonna keep goin’ in any direction you are propelled in. Easiest thing is to just use your magboots to get around, but if you’ve gone and gotten yourself caught without ‘em, make sure you stay within arm’s reach of a wall or bolted-down-object at all times, else you’re gonna find yourself floatin’ uselessly with no way of gettin’ t’ anything.
[He pauses, looking back at the group.]
That about it? [ He waits a couple seconds, but no one adds anything, so he looks back in the camera. ]
Alright. Let’s get this show on the road.
[ The feed winks out. ]
[[OOC: Each of the Roci crew will have top levels in the event post to help people with their suits, so feel free to hit them up there! I will also link them here for easy access. Naomi || Bobbie || Amos || Alex ]]

But wouldn't know how to begin getting out there.
audio;
But then she says something that he is never going to get used to: crazy things that the people here can do, apparently.]
You, uh - wait, go back a bit. You can turn a solid to a liquid?
I'm assumin' you ain't just talkin' 'bout ice to water, either.
audio;
[She answers, and finds herself smiling, very slightly.]
Will you help me get to the problem?
audio;
Of all the weird powers people have in this place - turning random things to blood is definitely one of the creepiest.
He coughs, clearing his throat. ]
Uh - right. Right, okay. That'll... That'll probably help.
Yeah, Amos or I can get you out there. It's pretty damn disorienting if you haven't done it before, so you might want to make a dry run first.
audio;
[Better to get this over with, Jasnah thinks. Every new shutdown of the gravity risks another serious injury. The quicker they get this over with, the safe it is for everyone.]

Good to meet you, Jasnah.

[She echoes.]
I'll go meet Amos, but I'll contact you again after the walk.
no subject
Good luck.

Can you do it while wearing a full vac suit? No need to have your hands free or anything? Because I can get you where you need to be.
audio
[Drawing in a deep breath, and letting it out again. Jasnah does not want to be out there, but;]
Where do we meet?
