His help was plan B, but then again, it was the plan B. Still, she was in control, and Steiner was not. She had no need for him beyond his help really, and maybe the words would drill into his thick skull if she pressed them just a little bit further. Alice stood her ground, taking in the bitter tone of Steiner's little fit before rebuttling to get a point across.
Lets make something clear, your contact with whoever you know within the Armed forces is as you put it "plan B". Plan A is going to be our first, best, and safest attempt at getting off this planet and away from these brainwashed idiots. I'm not here to violate your trust, or to make you an enemy, but you're not my priority - and right now my patience is about as thick as a spec of dust. So, do yourself a favor, and don't piss off the person who just bailed you out of a death sentence.
"Can't keep arguing, if he acts like a little shit I'll just ditch him." Alice thought to herself, she took a second to catch her breath, back to considering their options.
McIntire and I were at each others throats last time we met in space, but oui I have. It won't matter though, the Bretonian front is too far, we'd get killed if we tried to even enter the taus. That leaves us with one option, which means you're going to need to tolerate Gallic tongue for a while.
Alice turned back, pressing her knuckles over the table and leaning forward as she looked out the window against the wall. The sunlight glared over the entire room, it looked quite dramatic with her blocking some of it out.
The Council movement has been opposing the Royal Navy for decades, and spreading civilian propaganda over telegrams. podcasts, and PSAs. The Provence system is nearly overrun with their soldiers, civilian traffic goes in and out with no issue. We can enter the system, contact the head of the movement, maybe my name will speak for something again...
Maybe they'll take my help. Either way, I need to know if you're willing to stick with us for a while. Maybe after some time you'll realize for certain we're more human than you think.
