[Jim's sitting in his suite, wearing his command golds, looking serious as a heart attack. He's leaning forward, one hand braced against the armrest of his chair, the other fiddling with something on the console. Satisfied, he leans back more fully and nods once to the camera.]
Okay, let's get the introductions out of the way first. Name's Jim, Jim Kirk. Captain of the USS Enterprise. I serve in Starfleet in the year 2259 - Starfleet being a space-based armada focused on peaceful exploration and the discovery of new forms of life in the universe.
[There's a slight quirk to his brow, he coughs and then continues with all due charisma,]
I know there's people out there that've been here longer than I have, so I'm asking for your help - and the assistance of anyone willing. We know we're here to fight something, some of you know what and why. While I can understand the reasoning behind keeping that information to allies, I'd like to stress the fact that we're all in this together, regardless of worlds, races or creeds. This isn't something we can or should fight blind. So I'm proposing a broader alliance, a centralized repository of information, and the consideration of a unified front to face whatever's coming.
Additionally, I'm interested in the martial capabilities of the landed foreigners, any contingency plans that have been put in place to deal with the situations we're potentially facing here, and the sorts of scenarios that've been dealt with in the past.
[He exhales a little more sharply than necessary, and then he gives the camera a brief, two-fingered salute.]
Kirk out.
[and edited in after the fact, private to Kyle Rayner.]
We should talk.

[Costigan flicks on a 60% encryption.]
What do you want to know?
audio; starfleet encryption
Anything. I know that sounds indecisive, but the more information I have about this place, even things that don't seem relevant, the more accurately the situation can be judged as a whole.
audio; starfleet encryption
You have a specific question, or more than one, you call me. Until then, you can collect from the rest of the people.
audio; starfleet encryption
Okay. What can you tell me about the near-executions that happened ten months ago?

Am I allowed to ask how long you have been here?
audio; starfleet encryption
[A pause. Has it really been that long? :|]
audio; starfleet encryption
So what was the first big thing you ran into?
audio; starfleet encryption
[He chuckles dryly.]
I don't know, guy. This whole place is a 'big thing.'

[He shrugs, even though it can't be seen through the audio.]
Any other questions, Captain?
audio; starfleet encryption
Nothing off the top of my head. But I'd like to stay in touch.
audio; starfleet encryption
You need anything, I'm in the Wood Sector.

[And he disconnects.]
