Stubborn as a mule, that one. She kept a practiced pokerface, attention on the commander's announcement as she seemed fed up waiting for anyone who was still missing from the roster. And the King? Well, Matilda figured he'd understood the message until such a time came where he felt to dare another attempt to court his Queen. He always did. Not unlike clockwork, in fact. She could only hope that wouldn't be for quite some time indeed.

And with the distraction off on his own little tangent, the commander spoke with the fraud-confidence she always displayed in the face of her crew. Her forced smile reflected that, Matilda thought. Reflective of her own behaviour when she tried relaying the good news and failing just as badly at it, and for a moment the woman felt relieved it wasn't her standing in the spotlight. 'This is why you use the comm, dear.', a condescending thought at best.

As for the message, Matilda felt... pleased, if only slight. Her work wouldn't be relevant for quite a while, but given that the first few readings checked out without so much as a fault was enough reason to give credit where it was due. And so, after mentally chastising Ackner's little tirade (that man had no tact, seriously) Matilda gave the parties responsible for the data a respectful nod.

"If that's all, I'll return to my duties."

Even if she wouldn't be with the ground team on their first take-off, it wouldn't hurt to come prepared when that day came. A good scientist always is, and so she left the control room; waving some of her fellow crew goodbye (and give some others another stern glaring) as she inched passed Quentin who hung clumsily before the doorway.

"Excuse me," She commented passingly.
