she could now put on a practical head though. talk to him, assess him -- factual, if that was what it took )
Please, Jack. I need to know that you're mission fit.
( would cost have sent him back if he wasn't? unlikely but she didn't really know their technology. she wanted her own check, as brief as it likely would be. just enough to satisfy her )
[And it had taken weeks aboard BASE to ensure that fact, even if Jack might be doubting the procedure. Obviously, it was unlike anything he'd ever experienced. Combined with his natural distrust of most everything, he's less confident than he lets on.

( angela sighs, moving to sit herself down. it wasn't as much as she would like from him but she knows better than to push too far with him
so she starts on her report, telling him what she knows about others that may have died in the arena, what she has done or heard since his and genji's deaths. it's perhaps less than he would like but that is because angela doesn't have as much -- she'd spent some time alone, or with a friend as she'd grieved at first before continuing her duties )
