[In a rare moment of using video on purpose, there's Jayce. To those who know him, he looks the same as he always does. To those who don't- he's an early 30's man with seemingly a permanent five-o-clock shadow, bright golden eyes, and perfectly coiffed hair. The background is out of focus, but to those who know it, it's clearly a part of S.T.A.R. labs. Normally a little more jovial or at least less serious sounding, Jayce looks into the camera like he's giving a press release.]
We’ve got about forty-eight hours or less until Aurora allows that toxin into Etraya. Which means if you haven’t started taking precautions already; start now. Get easily carried food, medical supplies, whatever you think you'd need. Better to be over-prepared than under.
Considering what Aurora's told us about the "mission"... If you’re someone prone to having weapons, do us all a favor and throw them into one of our many, lovely lakes, before you wind up using it on someone else. Or, if you’re going to be touchy about it, let me know, I’ll talk with Harold about how we can get them locked up somewhere for the mission’s duration.
As a reminder to those who don’t want to think about it, and maybe new information to those who are new: if you die here, for whatever reason, you lose something. I don’t know what, you won’t know what, and you might not even know what it is you’ve lost even after you’ve lost it. Maybe it’s an eye, maybe it’s the memory of your best friend. Either way, whatever you're afraid of by not having your weapons on you isn’t worth what you’ll be making someone else lose because of your bad decisions.
If you have any special concerns, worries about any specific denizens in this upcoming mission, now's also the time to voice it.

Give them to me, and I'll lock them up somewhere until this is all over.

[He stares blankly.]
Right. What's a flashlight?
[He's seen someone use one before since his arrival, but he had thought of it as a weird magic lantern and didn't know the term for it.]
And if you lock up all the weapons, what keeps you from unlocking them and using them yourself once the nebula hits?
no subject
Flashlight. Switch is here, turns on and off. Easier to manage than a flame, runs on regular batteries.
[He demonstrates quickly by opening it up, showing the batteries inside, and then closing it back up again.]
Because I'm not going to be the one with the key.

And what will keep them from looting the weapon stash?
no subject
Because I can't think of him getting any more paranoid than he already is, and hates weapons.

A timed lock for the safe. It wouldn't unlock any sooner than two weeks, and wouldn't require a code to open it back up. Purely automated. The guy I'd ask to make it would probably be the only one who could crack it, if he wanted to, but I can't say I can provide any other proof of why he wouldn't other than I trust him. So if that's not a good enough answer, then I don't have one.

You're...really bad at persuasion, aren't you? You might want to give people a little bit of time to process the idea that you have access to magic that can seal something away for weeks before you tell people that the same person who casts the spell can break it.
I'll consider it. For now I have a bunch of meat to cut up and smoke.
