Aria nodded back at James and the rest as they explained what they could do. With a slightly longer glance at Krish. Powers weren't necessary for this, but having two transporters would seriously cut down on the time to get to where they needed to go.

"Alright then, thanks for joining us Ms. Anderson and Mr. Krish. I Don't worry too much about comparing your abilities. Remember, the main thing we need is manpower to help make contact and deliver the supplies. Anyone can do that," Aria assured as she smiled at the two of them. Plenty of people without powers were helping and every single one of them was appreciated.

She started putting pins in the map she had on the table. Aria made a mental note of a couple things she had noticed from the new arrivals and made a decision. It wouldn't be great to have them all going to the same place for simple things like dropping off a care package one at a time. "Since we both can do transportation, it would probably be more efficient for this part to split into two groups. One transported with you Mr. Logan and the other with myself. Given your ability to carry additional supplies perhaps you and Ms. Forestier can be team A and myself, Mr. Krish and Ms. Anderson will be team B?" She offered as a very basic plan. They would simply divide the locations pinned on the map between them and each group could quickly move from point to point.

Aria had noticed Krish's hesitance at agreeing to not misdeliver the supplies so she figured it would help to keep him out of trouble if he was with her. As for Ms. Anderson? Well, Aria could use more hands actually carrying things- she didn't have any crazy tentacle powers or levitation abilities.

She began copying some of the marks on the map to a second copy for James and Celeste. "In the mean time if you all can finish sorting and prepping the care packages I'll get the maps sorted and get radios set up for each group," She said as she was using her phone to look up the latest alerts being sent to her, along with the large white board nearby with addresses being written on it. Marks were being made for different numbers of people at the locations so they could adjust the care packages accordingly.

James Logan

James would nod, following Aria's orders, helping sorting and prepping the care packages. "Don't worry Krish," he'd say to him, "levitation is useful, we'll all be able to help."

Once the packages were ready and he had his load of them he'd step besides Celeste, "once we got our locations I'll get us a portal open ma'am." He'd look to Aria, ready to get their locations and get started.

For a second Krish didn't speak before stuttering out. "Oh, I k-knew that floating could be useful, j-just slipped my mind!" He put on a smile that had to look more confident than his current look and kept at the boxes, turning away the Logan guy. "I'm pretty sure I knew that I could help without being told. I'm smart like that, just didn't exactly remember straight away like you and your portals." A jealous tone briefly entered his voice without him particularly taking notice.

He looked up at the arrival of a new girl. She did not look normal, but frankly, by this point, someone looking completely normal was weird. He gave a distracted wave while still moving one of the boxes. "Hey, I guess we're going to be partners with that halo girl." No idea why he had to be in the larger group, but it's not like anything was different, probably. He glanced at the board. "So, who are we going towards first? 'Cause that's a lot of people."

Liron Andersen

Feeling a bit like a fish out of water, Liron wandered to the map with the locations pinned onto it, studying which places they would be delivering supplies to. She didn't notice at first that she was being spoken to, only realizing it after a too long to be polite silence dragged on. "Oh! I'm sorry. I was wool-gathering. The way I see it, we can either go for the densest areas, reasoning that we'll help the most people. Or we can go to the least dense areas, reasoning that they're the ones who have received the least amount of help until this point and therefore will need it the most."

Celeste saw the newcomer arrive and nodded politely at her as she stepped over and next James, who she was being paired up with, so they could sort and make up packages. It seemed like an excellent idea since he could carry extra supplies and she could certainly help out, at least temporarily, if someone was hurt or distressed.

"Yes, when Miss Vaughan is ready, you and I can head out, maybe to the least populated parts of the island?" she suggested since they, James and her, could take extra supplies and she could help out if anybody needed it since the less populated areas probably had less emergency services as well.

"I think you all have good points. Team A can go to the further out points and the our team can go to the denser locations as we'll have three people to spread out a little within a small, dense area," Aria agreed and advised. She walked over to hand James and Celeste a radio to share and kept the other on her hip. There were only so many to go around and the ones not being used at the moment were mostly charging.

After distributing the maps and radio Aria pointed out a series of marks on the map. "If you two take these ones we'll get the others. Stay in contact, if you need us just let me know the location and I can get us there shortly," She explained to the two and let them get on their way.

She moved over to the stacks of care packages and pushed a few into her pocket dimension for transport before turning to "Team B". "Alright if you'll both grab some supplies we'll pop out to the first spot." A flick of her wrist and a large oval shape ringed by brilliant green light formed. Cold air could be felt as the snowy landscape outside could be seen through the portal. "After you two," she said as she gestured at the portal and looked at Liron and Krish.

Liron Andersen

She took the supplies that she was directed to, still a little worried about her lack of supernatural abilities but ready to help regardless. "All right, here goes," she muttered, mostly to herself in preparation for facing the cold again. When the girl with the halo -and wasn't that strange? A non angelic being with a halo? Or so it seemed anyways. Liron herself lacked one- gestured, she stepped right through the portal and into the snow.

The portal itself was nothing special to Krish, but even though he knew they were obviously going back to the snow, he had to frown at the sight of the outside area past the portal. He have only spent as little time possible as of late in that cold, and he was definitely not changing that.

He stepped through after Anderson, holding the care package he had to his chest to block out some of the wind.

Once they'd gotten their map he'd check location and then focusing he'd form a portal for them. Unlike Aria's it was made of darkness, but it'd serve it's purpose just as well.

"Let me take a look first, make sure the other side is clear," hopping through he'd quickly clear a bit of snow before popping his head back through and motioning Celeste to follow. "Ok, let's go."

Grabbing one box and levitating another, Celeste waited patiently for James to come back, careful not to enter the portal until he came back and told her it was safe to do so. She had never used a portal either so she was a bit hesitant about how they worked.

When James came back and told her everything was okay, Celeste stepped forward into the portal with the boxes and found herself immediately outside, a few feet from an older looking house, with two other houses, maybe half a block away. It looked like they were on the outskirts of the city.

"Shall we start here? See if they need help?" Celeste said to James as she looked up at the house which barely had a clear path through the high snow up to the front door.
