Vaelin should have been happy with the outcome, Sarah's exile from the VWA served his purpose in having her as an engineer on his ship. What manifested instead was irritation, this was not what Sarah had wanted and he doubted that Sarah wished to have her time with the VWA end in this manner. He showed none of this externally, the same expression and tone being present. "I doubt you both lack any sincerity that this is an 'unfortunate' in regards to either of you." His attention turned to Freya. "You have completely misread the purpose of why I have conducted myself as I have." It was Freya's smile and last words that only confirmed his suspicion about what was going on, how they had dismissed what he had said, he suspected Jana dismissed far more then just his words. His hand moved out to touch Sarah's shoulder as she tried to edge her way out of the room hoping to hold her in place.

As Jana had spoken he gained the idea that she thought him ignorant and the with what she had said, he turned that into believing that not only did she think he was ignorant, he viewed her as such. He would seek to hold his gaze with Sarah if she looked at him as his hand dropped from her shoulder, his eyes darted towards the door way for a moment, it was no subtle gesture. His gaze shifted to Jana. "A Fortiori. There will be no need for compensation nor will I accept it." As he had done in the bar his thumb tapped against his leg softly, relaying a command to the data-pad. "As long as we aren't provided with reasons to pull stunts, I do believe that me and Sarah would seek to leave."

He leaned across to Sparks to whisper in her ear, his tone hushed so that the other two wouldn't pick out the words. "This kind of makes my gift redundant, its yours to do with as you wish and sorry." He had no doubt as to what would have been done with his gift, the group was precious to her, it was also because where she would go now it would serve little purpose. He would seek to move to the door way, if it was to open he would stand within the frame looking down the hall way. He would seek to observe how well equipped the guards would be.
