I ain't here as a guest am I? I want to do my share of helping out. I know I'm just a kid but there's things I can do to help isn't there? That leaves you guys to do stuff I can't do, right? And maybe you can teach me some of that stuff so I can get better at helping out."
She looked at him wistfully, really wanting to help people out, and not just be pushed aside like some pesty little child. She was old enough to want to contribute.

She felt like she was on probation or something, and they might just decide to dump her into some backwoods orphanage or something and she'd never see her home planet or any of her friends again, or even have any opportunities to get away from this planet, let alone do anything worth anything.
