[ He's still alive, but he's also a little wrecked, and a little worn. He's gotten jumped a few times, though Jaeger training's kicked in and God for that - but he can't shake off the feeling of being on edge, like something's going to break and soon. ]
Still alive, Marshal. Fuel lines' been cleared and should be operational, but—
Gravity's compromised in some sectors of this deck. It doesn't look good.
[ a beat, one with some weight to it; because though Raleigh has twice now piloted on his own, Herc is making it clear in the silence that this isn't a trend they need continuing. ]
[ Raleigh doesn't say shit out loud, but that's mostly because of luck. He'll take a double beating for talking out of turn and running his own show later, if he has to. ]
Low oxygen, sir, or compromised as in compromised?
[ he doesn't hesitate to deliver the news, doesn't flinch or pause when he's said it. it's a statement of fact, because he's a soldier, and this is what he does. ]
Poison agent is local, sir? [ Raleigh doesn't say we'll come for you because that's a goddamned given, but there's no need to throw it to the Marshal's face at this point in time. ]
[ the schematics they were looking at said it was contained, but the whole ship's oxygen is circulated from their location, and Herc doesn't really trust a faulty system. ]
We'll worry about the air. You worry about your end.

[ obviously not, but Herc's never been able to remain fully steadfast without a wry comment now and again ]
That the only problem?

[ A bunch of somethings, even, and Raleigh is sure he can't take those on his own. ]
Might need more than a set of iron boots here, Marshal.
