Summary
Dr. Liu,
Got your final report yesterday on Project LV-426. I'm amazed. Great work all around. It's been forwarded to the Chair, our friends at the Pentagon, the Defense Appropriations Committee, and DARPA. The acid-resistant armor is something that should really catch their eye.
We're expecting some big grant money from this.
Burke
Burke,
Did you read even the executive summary of my report? There are some interesting biomaterials that we could work with, but I stressed, multiple times, that this creature is far too dangerous to even consider using in military research projects. It's aggressive, stupid, vicious, aggressive, impossible to train, and did I mention aggressive?
. . .their limbs work on hydraulic principles and operate under pressure, which is why they splurt like a popped water balloon when they get hit in those Marine camera feeds we saw. A slight wound to a limb takes them right the hell out of commission, and now your troops have to deal with an insanely aggressive and stupid xenomorphic K-9 unit that oh by the way IS BLEEDING ACID.

Summary
Kasumi didn’t even bother playing any of the audio files she had prepared. “Every other message is just ‘Extremely dangerous!’ or ‘approach with caution!’ but there’s nothing to suggest why. No rumors, no charges, no body count. She’s not a tech prodigy, she’s far too young to be a commando. Her last report card marked her as having below-average biotic ability, and she’s clearly stable enough to be in school, so she’s not like Jack at that age. No offense.”
Jack slurped her drink. “None taken.”
Shepard frowned, staring at the smiling, freckle-faced image of a girl who was currently the target of a galaxy-wide shadow-manhunt.
“So why spend these kinds of resources,” she murmured, “on a girl who hasn’t done anything wrong?”
