He was indifferent to the morality of the action, and his eyes soon darted to other potential targets. There appeared to be no others and he kept his weapon lowered but ready, trigger discipline in full force. He took several slow, steady strides forward, trundling among the mercenaries as directed. He noted that the Salarian was quick to comply and so he did not dwell on . . . him? Her? His cursory knowledge suggested that the Salarian was more likely to be a male but it was not easy to tell with Salarians. They lacked the sexual dimorphism humans had evolved. To Mischa's eyes so did Krogans. But it was the same with that species. Few females left the homeworld, as he understood it, due to the effects of the Genophage.<br/><br/>One of the mercenaries, a human female, chose to address him. Mischa looked at her and his face was visible through the faceplate of his helmet but it was inexpressive, blank, and ungiving. There was nothing in his eyes but a thousand yard stare and he did not expect Ashton to be impressed by it. It was quite likely a very familiar expression to someone who made N7. If he were capable of it in the moment Mischa might have been awed to be in the presence of one of the human fighting elite - the N7s were the superlative soldiers of the species. Perhaps envy her greater skills, (imagined) prestige, and value. He would have offered her a pack of his own cigarettes, even. But he was not in a mindset for any of that, did not offer any cigarettes, and he stopped only briefly.<br/><br/><strong>"Your compliance with the order issued by the Spectre is appreciated, ma'am. Please proceed to the location specified and form a line in an orderly fashion; this will ensure swift and efficient resolution of this matter."</strong>Mischa said mechanically, without emotional inflection.<br/><br/>Then he continued, and spoke to the Batarian.<strong>"Batarian mercenary, halt. Please to proceed to the location specified and form a line in an orderly fashion. Your compliance is appreciated and will ensure this matter is resolved in a swift and efficient manner."</strong>Despite the deep-seated and well-cultivated speciesism that Mischa held in his heart towards all Batarians he spoke to Jarv in the same manner that he addressed Ashton. Without emotion or prejudice.<br/><br/>After he spoke he continued. He had spotted the Turians with yellow face paint. One appeared to be helping another to leave. They were yet located near the barrier where they had taken cover. Mischa stopped. He gave the pair a critical examination.<strong>"Turian mercenaries. Please proceed to the location specified and form a line in an orderly fashion. Your compliance with the Spectre's order is appreciated and will ensure swift and efficient resolution to this matter."</strong>The tall cyborg did not imagine that there would be trouble with these two. Turians had a cultural inclination towards obedience and submission to hierarchy, and Mischa assumed that Galeaus would be higher than these two within the Turian hierarchy. Like ants, really. But he was also prepared to be wrong if they did not comply.<br/><br/>Compliance was not, after all, mandatory. They were free not to comply and suffer the consequences thereof. Did those consequences include a giant human cyborg with a light machine gun ready, willing, and able to gun them down without a qualm or compunction? Yes. But they were still free.
