[So, yesterday's mission went comparatively well. As such, one might think that after holding off near-singlehandedly a mechanical Cthulhu the size of a building, Kagura might be celebrating. You'd think wrong.
If you want to find her to ask her something, you'll probably find her in a very out of the way office at Alhambra, with a cable connected from her form to a computer, filling out the paperwork and debriefings like a prim and proper officer should. Unity Group may be mostly comprised of lawless mavericks, but some people still hold to regulations. She's still pretty scratched from the mission, but she can get her repairs later. Nothing vital was hit, anyway. Also, if you are very observant, you might notice the names of some of the people in yesterday's mission in the scrolling forms.
If you want to bother her, though, this is probably the best time, insofar as there is any good time to bother the grumpy Major]

[A bit later, you might find her talking on the comm in an empty room. The other side of the comm can't be heard, but deducing the gist of the contents from Kagura's reactions from the moment you're in earshot is not really very hard]
WHAT.
[Pause as the other side talks]
WHY WOULD WE EVEN HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THAT.
[Short pause]
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS. OF COURSE THERE WERE GRAVEYARD EXECUTORS NEAR THE HACKED SUITS. I SENT THEM THERE TO HELP WITH THEIR DISABLING. HOW EXACTLY WOULD ARMED OPERATIVES HACK A HUNDRED POLICE SUITS.
[Very long pause, probably an explanation]
WONDERFUL. WELL NOT LIKE WE SHOULD CARE. JUST ANOTHER ANNOYANCE.
[Short pause]
I'LL KEEP IN TOUCH.
[And with that, she cuts the communication channel, before grumbling to herself]
I HATE MEDIA.

OUR SECOND OPERATIONAL OBJECTIVE WAS TO MINIMIZE CASUALTIES. I WAS MAKING A DISTRIBUTION OF RESOURCES. I WAS NOT THROWING ANYTHING ON THE LINE. I HAD KILLED THAT THING BEFORE. I KNEW I COULD TAKE THE QUEEN SO I COULD TAKE CARE OF OUR FIRST OBJECTIVE. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE HACKER COULD PULL BECAUSE HE WAS AN UNKNOWN QUANTITY AND HE WAS ACTIVELY JEOPARDIZING OUR SECOND PRIMARY OBJECTIVE. SO I THREW ALL THE RESOURCES THAT COULD BE SPARED THAT WAY AND HOPED IT WOULD BE ENOUGH.
WE CALL IT BASIC TACTICS.
REMIND ME AGAIN WHY YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THE SQUAD LEADER OF YOUR TEAM INSTEAD OF SOMEONE WITH A BASIC GRASP OF HOW TO DIRECT A BATTLE.
