The back and forth between the Captain and the Cardassian woman went like an old movie she'd seen once where the antagonist seemed to know impossible things about the protagonist. Everything except the ace that was hidden up their sleeve.
Black suspected that Braggins had several aces hidden away. Each one a rolling collapsible contingency for every possible outcome that she was keeping so close to her chest she was surprised the woman could still breath.
That thought however left her when the Commander began handing out hand weapons, just in case things went completely south and the Cardassians attempted a boarding action. She knew she could take care of herself if that were the case, but given that her head just wasn't in the game, she felt considerable discomfort at the thought.
Then T'Lari addressed the bridge. At least she had her head screwed on and was being constructive.
That woman is going places
The Picard Manoeuvrer wasn't something Black had even thought of. If she had, performing any high warp manoeuvrers in a planetary system was risky in a good day. That would certainly be a last ditch rabbit out the hat if they needed one. But that was down to the higher ups to make that decision.
Turning to face the younger woman, Black gave her a reassuring nod that it was a good idea if a highly risky one.
