Well, she'd bitten. It couldn't have been that bad of a conversation starter...

"Mission advice? Well, I don't know what your mutation is, but that aside, I'd say stay calm, and if Shawn of any of the adults here give a commend, do it as soon as it's safe to do so. Also, if you feel yourself starting to panic, get back to safety immediately, if you can."

The dark-haired Scot wasn't selling the mission in a particularly reassuring way, but then again, rare was a mission where you aren't putting your life on the line, and Heidi wasn't going to reassure anybody with false promises. It's better to be scared and cautios now than scared and taken by surprise out there.
