Indigo swears to herself as she hears the others panicking, and is already working on the calculations for a patch field before Carol even comes up to her. She'd planned on snagging everyone by their EVA suits in an electromagnetic field and pushing them in that way, but scans revealed that Motoko's electronics were not sufficiently hardened, such an attempt would be fatal.
After several seconds of making sure her calculations are correct, she nods, forming a dome above the hole to scoop anyone still stuck too far out, and gradually smooths it out, so that there's a pink force field patching the hole.
Atmosphere slowly hisses back in, but it will be several seconds until it has enough oxygen to support everyone.
Ignoring Carol for now, Indigo scans what remains in the spacewalk, scowling as she notes that everything has been blown out. She looks out, but the Bleed interferes with her scans too much for her to readily tell anything. Finally, she speaks in a voice that starts off an odd mix between frustrated and horrified, but gradually bleeds into an emotional blank. "The bodies are gone. As are several tools, but nothing essential. Everyone seems to have everything important strapped to their suits." The suits she didn't see the point in them wearing. At least Motoko had the weight to keep them all on the floor, and the tether held out.
Indigo drifts down, landing on the outside of the Spacewalk, and inspects the damage done. The two smaller holes had grown, taking all of the material between them out. The resulting hole was much larger, and would take more power and material to repair. "I miscalculated." Her face betrays no expression, save for a scientific detachment, but her fists are clenched and trembling. "I didn't factor in the atmospheric pressure when I set the power levels of the fields." And the result tore chunks out. "That will have to be altered." She glances up at Carol. "I will, of course, take full responsibility for all of this."
With that, she stands and heads over to her field, pushing herself down until she's in the Spacewalk with the other crewmembers, giving each a quick scan to be sure they're safe.
