Alune sighed in relief as the krogan’s hand left her wrist. It wasn’t that she was a delicate flower or anything but… okay maybe she was a little on the frail side, even for an asari but the woman had grabbed her  much harder than expected.  The doctor rubs at her wrist and nods at the Krogan’s point, she would very well get to learn about krogan physiology soon enough which would have been exciting if people in the room weren’t just about ready to all shoot each other for the promise of a million credits. Her eyes then flicked over to the taunting krogan and she sighed almost but Lionfish thankfully had it covered for the most part. Everyone was pairing up and it was rather obvious, people were spreading out and trying to increase their chances of survival by any means necessary but with a million credits on the line Alune wouldn’t be surprised if a few people got shot in the back before it was all said and done so their ‘partners’ could even out that share just a little more in their favor.<br/><br/>The arrival of the enginner woman was unexpected but Alune noticed that the krogan almost immediately accepted the other woman and the krogan was more than certainly a much better judge of character when it came to being combat able.<span style="color: Navy">“ At least she’s human…. I know how to treat them.”</span>Alune’s gray eyes flick over the dark skinned human, wondering for a moment just how that particular skin shade came to be before she noticed the charred clothes and burns.<span style="color: DarkSlateBlue"> “I think we can take her, I mean it’s not like I’m the hardened commando here or anything but are you alright?”</span>The Asari didn’t wait for an answer however. Her medical training and natural inclination to help people as well as her healthy curiosity that came from being a doctor had already kicked in. The asari reached into the pocket of her lab coat and grabbed the hand-held part of her omnitool, the green hologram surrounding her arm as she performed a quick medical scan of the human woman and her skeleton showed up rather unflatteringly on the holographic ‘window’.<span style="color: DarkSlateBlue">“Well, she’s about as healthy as anyone who’s walked through uh… it’s ‘hell’ right? That’s where all the fire is?”</span>Alune didn’t quite grasp the human concept of eternal damnation and she let the joke fall flat and returned her tool back to her lab coat after turning it off.<br/><br/>When the order came to stay close to someone with a gun and a turian approached Alune was already reaching into her satchel and producing her meager means of self defense here on omega. A stock model M-3 predator with a gunmetal blue finish, quite obviously procured from the police on Illium and quite woefully stock compared to every other weapon in the room. The asari gives a nod to the turian and smiles back to Lennik as the taunts are issued back and forth, the male’s bit about the kids made even Alune wince but.. Lennik could do it, maybe with a little encouragement.<span style="color: DarkSlateBlue">“ Alright Lionfish… just… shit I don’t how to insult krogan’s.. never wanted my neck broken that badly. “ </span>The asari flushes, unable to really help the krogan here where she’d normally be at home with her dry humor instead she grips her pistol harder and stands behind the female incase shooting started.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
