[ don't panic don't panic don't panic, it's fine, everything is fine. no one is answering his messages, no big deal. everyone ]

I can't get a hold of Cas, can't get Natasha, can't get anyone on the comms. Damn sure can't find them.

How many of us ended up stuck here and do you have any ideas on how hell to get unstuck?

[ look cas is a baby in a trenchcoat right now and Dean is wigging tf out. ]

(( ooc; backdated to not long after they all got ditched :,) ))

Yeah, I know, I just...worry. It's only Cas' second mission, and he's...well. He's not great with people.

What should I be doing?

[ genuinely, no sarcasm. He's a little listless, pissed, worried, and crawling the walls. Maybe he should go hit some shit in the training room. ]

If he is here, he has the skills necessary to navigate the missions regardless of your presence. Your concern will not change the outcome.

There are items to be sorted from the last supply drop. You could make food for a communal meal which might alleviate some of the anxiety among the crew. I'm sure some people would appreciate sparring as well, if that is within your skill to offer.

If the power outage is tied to a larger electronic failure, you might ask Viveca if there is anything you can do to assist with the station's infrastructure.

[ Maybe this makes Dean look like a dipshit, but sometimes, he just needs orders. He's a good soldier, but he follows direction very well. ]

I can do that. Cook, I mean. Pretty good at it. I'll talk to Viv, see what I can do.

Thanks, dude.

[blackfire]

（ lucky for him, itachi has been commanding others since he was a literal child, so this works out in everyone's favour. ）

It's nothing.

（ local man, 22½, hates being thanked for anything. ）

Let us know what Viveca happens to say.

[ruinously]

[ he'll come back after a while, because - ]

She said the creepy voice is the stations previous AI.

[ NOT TERRIFYING AT ALL. They're all gonna get jettisoned, he knows it. ]

[blackfire]

I see.

Did she give you any more information than that?

[ruinously]

Not a lot. Got kinda closed lipped about it. Said not to trust her. She's kinda hell bent on doing it alone, but I told her to reach out to us if she needs to.

[blackfire]

（ sometimes, viveca is so very like him. itachi only sighs inwardly, and reaches up to pinch the bridge of his nose. ）

I am certain she will should her need become dire.

Thank you for reaching out to her.

[ruinously]

[ yeah, she takes a page outta dean's book too. ]

Yeah, I think she will.

No problem, dude.
