There are things most of note to Nina in that response - one, the smile, always an encouraging sign; two, chrysalis, what the fuck; three, my people. She's on the wrong side of that division again. That is not a safe division, not for anyone, but it is an understandable division.

"Oh, I see. Or, rather, I understand. As nice as it would be for you to be able to send us right back as abruptly as we arrived, that's not the way the world works, is it. Things are easily broken, not so easily mended." It's a problem Nina sees instantly - in order to merit help in being sent back home, she's going to have to be of use; if she's of use, why would they work to send her home? Sort that out for another day, she supposes. "Of course I have many other questions like, 'Who are you people?' and 'What's a Chrysalis?' and 'Do you intend to keep us in those cells for long?', but I'm sure there were things you wanted to ask me? And thank you for the strange baths, by the way, that goo was vile."
