[Looks kind of angry when you say that] That's not it at all! Taking the hits... I'm not saying we ignore them, I'm saying we're capable of making our own decisions when we can't consult them. We listen to Royal when he's there, or Brass or Spear, because we trust their judgement. If they're not... When Ophiuchus was searching, you didn't want to make a decision without consulting Lynx. We can't afford to do things that way, Spear was there so we could get his input but we raised suspicion by taking so long. It's not 'we can't make a decision without Lynx', and it's not 'ignoring Lynx completely' either.
And Dagger. I won't accept talk about sacrificing ourselves for them, we all want to protect each other. Don't say it's better if we take the hits, you and Rory are as bad as each other.
