[ Kobra has a little bit of grease on his face and his hair is greasy and sticking to the side of his head. Anyone who's been in the Ingress repairing would have seen him helping there. ]

Hey, so like... how does everyone feel about runnin'? 'Cause they already think we're guilty, anyway, and I don't care much if they think we're cowards, either. Who the fuck are they, anyway? The bravery police? Don't got nothin' to prove to these guys that's worth gettin' half our crew ghosted.

[ He doesn't think he's a coward, of course, but he didn't live this long not knowing when to cut and run, especially when there's children involved. Everyone's on board, so they're not leaving anyone defenseless if they just go. What's the point of staying and fighting? ]

Oh and they're potentially listenin' to everything we say on here, so might not wanna be makin' battle plans on anything that could be listened in on. Just sayin'.

[ He shrugs. ]

I would normally say yes, that we should run. At the very least it would give us more time, a chance to find a better position.

[He can tell here who's had to take a "survival" approach before.]

[goodluckkobra]

Yeah. Strike back later when we have better resources. Get that they're mad, but plenty of us weren't even here when that attacked happened. If they think it's fair to kill innocent people and fuckin' kids, I'm guessin' that they're not opperatin' on the same morality the rest of us are.

[vengeance_driven]

I was there. If I knew it would keep the kids safe, I would turn myself over.

[No "buts" to that. He absolutely would do that still.]

It was a mess. It was a beautiful planet, and before we got there? It was fine. Peaceful even. They were not even very forceful with us.

[ Kobra nods quickly. He's already died just for one kid and she's here. There's no question that he'd do it again. ]

You think it coulda been avoided?

[vengeance_driven]

I know it could have been.

And I think this can be too.

But to be more honest, I don't think a lot of people on the ship want to.

[goodluckkobra]

Then maybe you gotta speak up and convince them of it. Could mean the difference between keepin' all of us alive.

[vengeance_driven]

Yeah, you're right. Fuck these teams. Both sides in this mess have already lost enough.

[goodluckkobra]

[ Kobra nods. ] There's things worth fightin' for, but this ain't one of them.
