Why was she getting so defensive? It went without saying that some people wouldn't like the Tenno but she worked hard! She tried to be fair and protect everyone she could! And she knew that, even if he didn't or didn't believe it.

"It's because you're wrong, obviously! I'm not some dumb kubrow, y'know! If people need help, the Tenno will always be there." It was what she promised herself. "It doesn't take something 'shiny' and we're not sick."

Assassinations could maybe be considered sick but sometimes, it was just necessary. Sabotage missions maybe, depending on how they sabotaged the systems.
