[There is a pause, a sense of a breath taken-- hidden anticipation, excitement, but somewhat withheld, as if she were unwilling to find pleasure in an uncertain reward.]
(I'm going to be frank with you, my usual work tends to involve entering conflict with large forces of heavily armed and forewarned combatants, and then being one of up to three people left alive at the end of those encounters. I'm fairly comfortable with danger. Now, I am a poor spy.)
[Shepard gives this statement the room it needs to expand. Shepard is not merely a poor spy, she is not a spy in any capacity. She is a terrible choice for covert work. She will inevitably set fire and detonate explosions wherever she goes.]
(...Which makes me a pretty bad bet if this all hinges on quiet and nothing but. But if you believe you'll have a use for someone with my skillset, I'm more than willing to stay and do what needs doing. If not, I'm not seeing my utility here, and you've definitely got enough on your hands to not add worry about the impulses of one unoccupied grunt. Since this is your arena of expertise, and you seem to know the plan for moving forward, do you have an opinion?)
