[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.

[It sounds like the sort of thing that can be just turned on and off, right?]
Re: text;
where I'm from spirits have to be believed in before they can be seen
and there it only works on kids not adults.
asti kind of changes the rules a little while we're here
good thing too or it'd have been a long six months so far.

Plus, he's had enough experience with the whole 'not being believed in' thing that he's really not keen on subjecting someone else to it. GAMEFACE ON.]
So what sort of spirit are you?
Re: text;
jack frost, very nice to meet you captain kirk.
sort of meet, at least.
text;
Yeah, likewise. Can you do that video thing again? I want to try something.

[ A moment later, Jack's feed clicks over to video again. ]

[Brb, willpower!! Still, he can't see Jack, so he ducks his head and sort of squints at the camera.]
Do something, will you? Throw a snowball or something.
Re: video;
I guess on the positive side, I should be happy you've at least heard of Jack Frost in the year 2259.
[ a pause ]
Holy crap, that means I'll be over five hundred years old.
video;
Awesome, I can totally hear you now!
[There's no such thing as impossible in Jim's world, okok.]

More of an igloo scheme, I think. Pyramids are a little out of my climate zone.

Okay, maybe you have a point. I've been to my fair share of those crazy powwows, that's for sure.
Re: video;

You wouldn't. You wouldn't!
[He's having way too much fun, take none of his incredulity seriously.]

Come on, it's not like I don't believe in the cold. I've been to Delta Vega, thanks.
