Mop Jockeys and Fighter Pilots

Captain Carme Batista doesn't have time for anything other than fighting the next battle. A distraction could mean death for her and her squadron.

He doesn't seem to understand she has no emotion left. The war with the Chion destroyed them a long time ago...

Or did it?
