"I think you missed the part where he basically started the conversation saying he didn't want anything from the Admiral or for me and to stay out of his way. I'm not sure what authority camp you went to but I'm not here to force anyone to do anything they don't want to. As a warden, that's not why I'm here."
She looks off for a moment then brings her focus back to Abel.
"Go ahead and tell me my approach to being a warden is flawed and I will point out that your first problem is taking the title of warden too literally."
Natasha glances back to the beach.
"And no, I wasn't planning on leaving him dead if he did die. Don't presume to know what kind of a human being I am without meeting me first."
A pause, and she steps to the side, preparing to leave.
"Keeping an eye on someone doesn't have to be hands on. His safety is your responsibility, and as Cain's friend and navigator, I want to trust that you'll do that to the best of your ability if I can't. Your the one that knows where he is if he can't communicate." He's being civil, though the urge to roll his eyes at her, which he's sure is mutual, is making it difficult.
He considers anything else he could say, and let's most of it slide.
"If it was your friend, I'm sure you'd want better for him too. But what ever, let me know if you need any assistance, I'm... I might not like your approach, but we're all crew, that should mean something." And he will give her a nod, not caring really where she went.
Abel's need to have the last word is proof that he doesn't care about reasons for anything, only that his assumptions are what he believes in. She stands firm on how she has dealt with the situation and the safe distance she's kept with Cain, as per his wishes.
But Abel doesn't listen or he would have heard her state at the beginning of their conversation that she has been keeping on eye on Cain. That willful ignorance won't do him well, as far as Natasha is concerned. He strikes her as someone to keep an eye on, because he only hears and sees what he wants to see.
Still, she heads her own way, giving him the last word because she's tired of talking in circles.

"I think we're done here, yeah?"
