[Lux frowns, holding a hand out. Yeah, she doesn't like this too much, but she is also acting leader, so she would have to lead by example.]
You have us at a disadvantage here. You don't know if we're trustworthy, and we don't know if you're trustworthy. The only difference here is that we haven't shown any signs of aggression, at least that we know of.
This is my expedition, I'll take full responsibility. If you find that we're untrustworthy, I ask you not harm the other four. Do what you want with me, but I doubt it would come to that. We'll surrender our weapons for now, but I ask that we keep our gear--you can even go through it if you want, for peace of mind.
