While I appreciate the concern, Lieutenant Blake, there's no need to worry; I feel fine!

[Whooooooosh, there it goes.

However, thankfully there's something else to address so that this might not be a total loss here.]

But even if I can see where you're coming from - I think - with shooting first, I would think it would be preferred to not shoot at all!
