[ Hello, fellow transports. Tonight when you check your networks, enjoy a look at one of your newest, a serious-looking man (flippy blond hair notwithstanding) with a politely neutral expression. ]
If it isn't too much trouble, I'd like to ask a few questions. While the woman providing the introductions was enthusiastic enough, her explanations were somewhat lacking. For instance, how many people are here in Exsilium right now, and how many are fellow transports? I understand there's a war going on - in that case, what kind of organized armed forces exist in this city? I'd assume there's a system in place to protect civilians or those unwilling to fight, but [ a bit of that politeness slips out of his tone ] please correct me if something so obvious hasn't been attended to.
[ He reaches to turn off the feed, but pauses as if remembering something, and straightens again with a friendlier look and a half self-deprecating sort of tone (all affected of course, with the ease of someone used to putting on a public face). ]
My apologies, it's rude to ask questions without giving any answers. My name is Barnaby Brooks Jr. Additionally, I'd like to hear from anyone familiar with me, whether personally or from Hero TV.

[ A hero needs to be prepared for any situation is what he finds himself thinking even now, if with a hint of real wryness. ]
Then the situation would appear to be as dire as was impressed upon us. [ That or this Initiative is just all kinds of unprepared, which he'd believe too at this point. ] Forgive the personal question, but how long have you been here?
[ He pauses, not having thought of that comparison before, but nods after a moment. ]
Yes, and I suppose it's similar in principle.

Seems that way, yes. Most of the people here are of the opinion that they're merely incompetent but I haven't seen any forces to imply that they have enough men to even take care of their own. [He's not sure what to think, here. Maybe a combination of both?] Ah, not very long, I'm afraid. Just over a week.
[That gets an excited grin out of him.]
Glad to hear it. We could always use less pompous gits in our midst.
video; MERLIN NO......
I'm sure that's always a benefit no matter where you are.

I'm still relatively new here but if you have any more questions, I'll do my best to help you.
