Although raising one eyebrow - half incredulous, half annoyed - at the mission assignment partnership, Nina didn't say anything. Simply nodding in agreement, she left the room, making a beeline for Xavier's office. The partnership made a bit of sense - putting him with someone who didn't trust him fully, and perhaps had the strength to take him down if necessary - but it was also a bit off putting. If S.H.I.E.L.D had plans put in place to avoid betrayals, then putting two ex-criminals together in a team was perhaps a bit short-sighted. Still, Cassandra or Fury could have something planned. Speed and strength went well together, and while having no gauge of Quicksilver's intelligence, Nina was sure she had enough alone for the pair of them. If the boy behaved himself, it could be a way for him to prove his new-found loyalty to the X-Men. And, perhaps to Nina. But time would only tell this.
