Nova watched as Jared suddenly leapt up and practically exploded out of the room. "Jeez! Well I guess the update can wait, if he's gonna be up there dealing with the snipers later he needs to hear it..." He walked over to the pile of supplies on the ground and started sorting through them. 3 small radios, exactly what they'd need for the raid; a large quantity of ammunition, a portion of which he took for his own gunblade; and various medical kits and supplies. He took these and started dividing them up among those whom he knew to be in most need of them. Many seemed rather overwhelmed by everything at the moment, and Nova had to make a concerted effort not to appear agitated as he tended to the wounded. When he was finished, he went and picked up the radios. One for himself and one for Jared, definitely, as they would need to be in constant contact while dealing with the snipers. But who should have the other one? He thought about it for a minute before an idea came to him. He took one of the radios and walked over to where Himawari was sitting. "Hey," Nova said, "now that I've got a minute I figured I should ask- how would you feel about taking one of the radios so you can be in constant voice contact with me and Jared during the operation? Being the first one of the others inside, you might very well find it useful. But that means you'll have to be able to communicate clearly... and listen to things you might not exactly want to hear. Are you up for that?"
