Hearing that things began to clear up in the wake of the earlier events, and with the pirates beat back enough Hacha begins to fiddle with comms again. Communications weren't his specialty, but he knew enough. Dura had been asking about Pantora, so it seemed like a good first direction to aim in.
He was pacing as he let the Duros work. Hands clasped as he waited for the technician to do his thing.
He just... he needed to know, to reach Verash.

"Resident Schmott Guy Hacha Tsuko reporting all hands are present and accounted for. Perhaps the Senator should report in, over." Hacha hands the microphone over to Durasay.
Duros | Faction: The Turtle (ok, so Unaligned) | Schmott Guy (or so he likes to think) | Bankor Vet
He was listening in closely. The broken words through the comm. He clapped Hacha loudly on the shoulder, grinning widely. Whatever stress had been weighing on him disappeared, and there was a break in emotion.
"Hi, honey." He replied, hands shaking as he grabbed the comm. "You're safe. The kids? How are they?" There was a trembling in his voice, as if the time apart had been eating him from the inside, and was finally released. "We're okay. The Turtle team is okay. I won't lie to you... we're in a bit of poodoo here."

"It's not the Sith." Durasay would share the details that he knew of the Eternal Empire. "... This is threatening the whole galaxy. Not just the Republic." He paused for a moment.
"They have us besieged here on Hoth. They've got an old nemesis of mine from when I was in the Defense Forces, running the pirates here. Verash..." he paused again.
"In case anything happens, I love you."

"I'm planning on it." The grin was apparent through his words. "But it's been too long since I last said it, since I last heard your voice. I needed to say it." Durasay straightened up again.
"How bad was it?"

"It's been a struggle. But I'm well. The Turtle team is well." Durasay relaxed, hearing Verash's voice seemed to take away a lot of his anxiety from the siege.
"Have you heard from anyone on Alderaan or Delaya?"
