He didn't like drawing any attention to himself. But the plan suggested... [color=aa0505]"But it's unexpected for us as well. Here we know the potential avenues of threat. Physical defenses in depth, layered checkpoints and choke points any assailant has to pass through. A sizeable force cannot pass. Both attempts were lone entities, exploiting singular flaws in the defense." "That's true of the destination. More true, maybe. But in transit our vulnerability increases immensely."[/color] He didn't— quite— meet anyone's gaze directly. [color=aa0505]"I think that's a greater risk than we have need for. At least for the moment. If the situation changes, of course, we should consider it. But for the moment I think safety and security is here." "The Captain will undoubtedly check in before morning. We can assess again then. Moving would be safer in daylight, anyway."[/color] [@VitaVitaAR] [@The Otter] [@Raineh Daze] [@Psyker Landshark]
