"An EMP would definitely knock out the power source," she nodded, thinking. But targeting the relays was an excellent idea. More so if they could do it without the schematics, which at this point were beginning to look like the holy grail.
Inclining her head to one side at Hill's assessment of Potts, Sharon had a different assessment. "I wouldn't put it quite like that," she said. "Think of it like... Ancient Rome. Every General of Rome owed their loyalty to Rome itself - the Empire; to her ruler - let's say Caesar, for simplicity's sake; and to the people of Rome - citizens, freemen, slaves, etc.
"I'd suggest that it's not as simple as her loyalties lie with one or the other - Stark or us. I'd suggest that in this analogy, General Potts has primary loyalties with her Emperor, but is still a citizen of the Realm." She paused. "What I'm getting at is that Coulson's telling us Virginia isn't an idiot, and even though she's Stark's General, she's still loyal to the interests of the Empire as well, as long as they're interests she understands that don't conflict with her primary loyalty. You convince her, she'll convince him. Also, I'd bet money that if innocent lives were at stake, she'd push to protect them every time, no matter what Stark said. Though I'd be surprised if he argued that matter."
Sharon covered the lower half of her face with two fingers, watching Coulson carefully. She didn't think it took someone with her special skill of thin-slicing to be able to read what was going on, but hey - maybe it did. Still, it was unexpected, and given her own situation, a little relieving. Although she couldn't help vocalizing her surprising in a brief little, "Huh." Because Coulson.
