This being the third time today that Ash has had a chance to travel these halls, he is getting quite used to it. His extensive training as a navigator has him optimizing routes and actually getting somewhat familiar with the station layout at this point. Having nearly memorized the map after the initial foray - as well as having it within easy access on his HUD display, Ash tries to keep his mind focused on the task at hand - which does require that he watch both the projected route as well as keep an eye out for any unexpected obstacles or pedestrians in the actual path. Speed bumps where the rubber hits the road, so to speak.
Ash keeps his head down as much as he keeps his eyes peeled - six to eight inches of clearance above them does not leave much room no matter how you slice it.
At the security station, Ash raises an eyebrow as Tylen offers to guard the car. Which leaves the three people entering the station house unarmed - well, without a firearm at least. But then, inside they should need any weapons, in theory. Or at least, there will be an overabundance of firepower with actual law enforcement officers; so, they themselves should not have any need for one.
Ash doesn't think much more of it, since his mind is more preoccupied with their steward's well being. Having dismounted the craft immediately before her, he sees her serene mask slip for a moment and her wobbly stance. So, being just in front of her, Ash turns slightly and silently offers a discreet shoulder for her to lean on - his duster rustling slightly as he moves to assist.
Ash also glances about making sure that Saskia is with them. She alone actually knows the man they are looking for; and she alone is likely the best person to make sure that he actually comes with them. Ash is certain that if it were him, he would not go with a random group of strangers even if they paid his bail. But then, he has not spent the night in the clink (especially on Frenzie) after a drunken brawl for a long time; it has been at least a decade since anything remotely like that has happened anywhere for him. And he quite certain that didn't start that one - really, honestly. Well, at least he is certain that he doesn't remember starting it, despite what the surveillance video showed.
