[She could say no. Hinata is young and Shepard knows as well as anyone else does what happens when you're insubordinate in the CDC. All things considered, she'd been lucky. More - there are people watching her, what she does and what she says. The safest thing would be to deny it. Her answer is immediate:]

I brought up what I thought was an oversight that endangered the crew. And if something happens down the road that unnecessarily puts people in jeopardy, I'll do it again
[... bringing up a flaw? something that must've been reasonable - she had experience, she had to know - and not even in public (or if it had been, it'd been quickly taken off the radar)-- was that so punishable?]
[of course, his reply, in contrast to hers, is immediate:]

It's only 1lb, but...

Nice work. :)
[Treasure that smiley face, Hinata. Show it to all of your friends etc.]

Are you worried I can't carry 1lb? Should I be insulted
no subject
[never mind that Jasper had done all the killing. really. never mind that.]
[ah, but.]
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org
!!! Not at all!!!
I was going to carry it over but if you wanted to visit and show off, I'd hate to deny you the chance!

If you weren't worried about me carrying it in then what was the issue

And why were you asking about my rover
no subject
[it had never crossed his mind.]
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org
To know where to go!!! If you hadn't want to pick it up!
no subject
Which rover are you in?
no subject

Why?
no subject
Do you need to get rid of the jerky to get your rover in under the weight restriction or can you keep it until we're on the ground?
no subject
I can hold on to it
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org
May I ask something else, ma'am?
no subject
I appreciate it. I'll pick it up once we're planetside

Go for it
