"Thank you," she said, putting them in a leather pouch. "Those can roll underfoot to nasty result, so I try to be painstaking with them when I can."
This had the added benefit-- if you could afford to focus on it-- of keeping people from following the trail of your casings later. But that wasn't the concern here. "If you wouldn't mind, then, may I observe and we can take turns? I have a few clips left, and I want to make sure of my scope."
She tapped a spyglass-like object atop her rifle to indicate it.
If nothing else, another chance to observe that technique might reveal some insight, and talking with this one more might help her understand the Corsairs better.
