Tippy's thoughts flow away from Raiden back to her jet. Aiori is in the roosterpit...hidden, stuff. If their investigation of our planes is thorough, thats one less option on the table and they are going to like me even less. The good news is that there is tons of ammo for her just hanging around.
Glancing over at you and your comrades' planes, you note that they are in fact being inspected. They haven't reached yours yet, but you see technicians checking Crash's roosterpit, and yours is next in line.
Jaakko looks around anxiously, a scowl on his face. Raiden had ought to convince the Imperials that we're helping them. Or was this just a set up? His feelings and thoughts alternate between wondering if Raiden betrayed him wondering if he's made the right choice to try to stop the end of the world. Supposedly.
He looks over at Tippy, then Walt. He wants to get their thoughts on the events unfolding, but remains silent, considering he has a gun to his head. He looks over to Raiden and sees if he can't make out what they're saying.
Whatever they're saying, it's not in a language Crash understands, so he has to resort to watching body language. The Imperial officer keeps looking over at your group and your aircraft, occasionally pointing out an individual or saying an aside to Xiaomei, who is apparently denying or at least having to correct about half of what the guy is saying with how much she's shaking her head.
: They hijacked the Wyvern and the accompanying drones, and the Kintharian unit already had lined up shots on our aircraft. Even if we took out the defectors, the rest of us would've been wiped out. We wouldn't be here otherwise.

: So rather than
kill the traitors, you let them slip away and bolster the enemy's ranks. You had best pray your inaction doesn't end up costing Aesthian lives.
