Catlin looked sharply at the man who commented on them. She looked him over, an action not missed by Florian, and decided he probably wasn't dangerous. Well, not in a way that she needed to worry about.
His attire suggested he was a scientist. It wasn't that scientists weren't a risk to them, or more importantly, to Ari, it's just that they tended against it. Catlin resolved to watch him, but take no action. That had been the instruction.
Clan Khamja was risky, but with this many people around, Ari had said that somebody would have to be an idiot to start something. Catlin agreed. She thought it quite likely that she could draw and fire faster than anyone else in the room, and with more accuracy. That wasn't much use if they were expected to stand in the hallway, though.
Florian crinkled his nose at the acrid smell of the smoke from the man, but did nothing but look to Ari for instruction. His expression betrayed his concern, but Catlin's did not.
