She took the opportunity to mow down the temporary incapacitated crew that had been trying to retake the bridge, but she knew that reinforcements would be continuing to try to make their way through that door.

“A-okay!” she confirmed, in between bursts of shots. 

She really hoped that Esben knew what he was doing when it came to flying –or ramming—this big floating bastard of an airship. 
The pink-haired kirin encountered some more resistance, but from down the hallway, it was clear that the crew were wising up to the kamikaze tactics that Esben was trying to employ and were considering abandoning ship. 

Her attention flicked back to Esben as he finally discovered the correct controls, the sudden accelerated lurch that made her fight to steady herself once more telling her that they were now on a direct collision course with Valheim’s newest superweapon. 

“The exit strategy is finding the same lifeboats the crew are scrambling for!” she replied back, already hauling her big gun back onto the damaged aetherskimmer. 

She wasn’t a mechanic, but she still had enough of a mechanical eye from working on all her guns, so she did a quick visual inspection alongside Esben. “If the engine works, maybe,” she concluded, before urging him on. “Go, go, start the bastard!”
