The Johnson nods a bit as DG calmly states her position, inclining her own head a bit at the woman's critique. "It's true that your audition pays very little," she offers, "But the division I represent is hoping to build a new team here, and vetting only goes so far. I am fairly confident in this particular collection of talents, and I am reasonably certain that you will not botch the mission, but I hope you will understand that it is my department's policy to pay teams proportional to the risk that they are taking, and it is our estimation that if an open confrontation is avoided, this mission should be fairly low-impact for a group with your skill sets."<br/><br/>She suddenly trails off and cocks her head to the side, her brow compacting in a slight squint before she visibly relaxes and smiles. "Your con-woman has accepted my counter-offer," she explains, "Apparently it was just a matter of providing her with the equipment that she felt was necessary to successfully complete the mission. She will be meeting with a, ahem, mission expert in the adjacent booth while we finalize planning and requisitions here."<br/><br/>"Speaking of requisitions," she continues, "You are all obviously responsible for your own armament, but if any of you wish to try and convince me that you have a need for specialized equipment as Ms. Hourglass has, now would be a very convenient time to do that."<br/><br/>She turns her attention back to DG, adding "Although at least in your case, I doubt anything we have readily available will outperform your deck and tools, which you will very much need. I cannot speak as to the exact configuration of the facility's defenses, but this particular chapter of the Eye-Fivers tends to scatter improvised traps in and around its compounds. If you can at all help it I would I suggest taking a thermal scan when you arrive on-scene and attempting to plan an entry that will let you only step where the external patrols have been walking. If you have to walk in blind keep in mind that there will be concealed traps, they will probably kill you if they go off, and it will be your responsibility to the team to help neutralize anything that they've rigged with an AI or worse."
