And Snow was one to appreciate good faith, so with a small nod, he briefly took Chief's hand in greeting. "Snow Villiers."

Unfortunately even great faith wasn't something to convince Snow to just stop looking inside the pods. So he leaned back some with a small smile after that. "I appreciate the advice, Chief, but I already lost her like this once already. I'm not about to let it happen again. Especially when it's not just her this time."

And then he figured he'd add, just to maybe ensure the guy (even though Snow figured his determination would be his own problem if something bad happened). "But I'll be careful. I made it this far, didn't I?"
