As Opus boarded, Shiva's eyes moved up to see him only for a moment before moving to the others again. He seemed amiable enough, but Shiva didn't really know his angle. Opus always had that mask on, and this was probably the most Shiva had heard him talk since they boarded the corvette. What he said did exude enough confidence that he knew what he was doing, though, so perhaps he just wasn't the overly social type. August, on the other hand, didn't quite exude confidence as lower everyone else's. Although, he was apparently renowned among humans, so he must do some things right. Shiva would just have to depend a bit less on his loyalty. Rareth's plan was sound enough. There appeared to be multiple ways to the objective, and have a teleporting Rothian amongst all of the other specialists among them would theoretically make this a cakewalk. Perhaps whoever finds the database first might work out the motives of these militants. "I think I would do best to take up a defensive position over the Hummingbird and make sure we still have a ride home. If anything goes bad, I can move up to help, but until then we have a fallback point. That is, unless any of you think I would do more good closer to the front line."
