Almost jumping back as she felt Birdseed's arm grabbing hers, her instincts telling Condor it was an attack before she realised that the younger woman was simply trying to sell their cover. Slowly relaxing she listened to her colleague's advice carefully as they both walked down the road at a leisurely pace.

It might be a good idea to spend some time chatting with the team shrink at some point but not right now. Not only were they on a mission and Condor couldn't afford to get distracted by unwanted emotions right now, but they were also on an open comm with Angelo listening in on every word they said. The thought of him spreading gossip about Condor suffering a panic attack on mission would be mortifying, and Condor could already feel her guts twisting just at the thought of it.

Closing her eyes for a moment SArah took a deep breath, holding it for a second as she calmed herself, finding her centre as the ill-feelings melted away before exhaling calmly, her mind feeling crisp and focussed for the mission ahead. Turning towards Birdseed with what she hoped was a friendly smile, Condor replied, [color=7ea7d8]"Let's just take the mission as it comes. If the guard comes on too hard I can always just break her arm and we can fall back on the preferred option of storming the place. It's what I'd've done if the rest of you weren't around anyway."[/color] If anything the thought of a straight up fight against opponents she could see was far more calming than any breathing exercises, and Condor felt her mood lightening with each step.
