"A few things, and yes," I say to one, then the other. On some level I'm both gratified and horrified by how easy it is to slip back into this kind of briefing with them. I'd near forgotten how information exchanges work with them. The give and take.
"Given how much we were messed with while we were active, it could be worse," I say philosophically. "And yes, the good guys are still the good guys, the bad guys are still the bad guys, but there are some who've most definitely made the jump across to join us. Kazari, for example, and the other Greeeds, though I don't know if they'd choose to fight the way I think he would. We're still holding out a hand to anyone who needs it, of course. Good or bad."
I'm silent for a moment, remembering Kemp. We helped him, went to find him with very little hesitation. All of us knew it could be a trap. It was, but it... essentially didn't matter, in a way. What mattered was that we tried.
