Christine's right not to trust those other two rifters playing (with apologies to Kirk, at least), and so she nods as she holds her arms out for someone to toss the ball over her way. "That's a point for us, yes. That also means we get to serve next. There's usually a proper rotating system to it, but I can do it until someone else on our team feels comfortable with trying it. Assuming there are no objections to that."
She doesn't really notice what Cullen's wearing until Christine exchanges words with him, and she looks up at him with a frown. "Yes, but you have bigger concerns while in a battle, such as not getting skewered with a sword and making it to the next moment in one piece. The worst you have to worry about here is a ball rebounding off your chest. Or, if you insist on keeping that on, heatstroke. Do yourself a favor and get rid of at least some of it."
She's no expert in removing armor, but she's sure he can remove enough of it to be comfortable and still decent. And if he's unwilling, she's sure she can manage to make the right amount of buckles and clasps loosen and make it seem like it's just the will of the Maker, if that's how he chooses to view it.
