-Samus seems to zone out for about ten seconds, looking like she's trying to concoct some super-realistic super special story to wow Aurora and take all the credit for her belief everything that happened was a brilliant plan...but then she comes back to reality, and gives the kind of sigh you know someone who's got their morals shackling them to "doing the right thing" would do-
Samus: Considering this is you, I'm not going to lie.
That wasn't us.
It was some nameless hobo.
We were recovering after assaulting their forces for over a week straight to find a weakness, and being told by the person who empowered Caesar there wasn't any way to realistically fight him beyond brute force like we were doing.
And then he swooped in and took credit for everything.
We'd never even saw that wandering hobo before. It doesn't even look like he was even from around here or had any real interest in doing what he did beyond being a mindless screwball doing it for kicks.
I could tell you how we were planning to literally shoot ourselves out of cannons from deep space to destroy their anti-aircraft guns, then used cunning brilliance to rout their forces, rally several dozen armies to attack, and decapitate the legion in a final climactic battle...but I'm not going to insult your intelligence by insisting that would have worked. It didn't happen, and that's solely our responsibility.
...That's the full story.

We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)-Samus just stares back. Even if you can't see her face, you can tell she's more than aware of the immeasurable amount of disappointment both sides are feeling about this...and that she's somehow run out of fucks to give. Or just too drugged to be even thinking here-
We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)~well Six, there are the large windows behind Aurora offering a nice view over the city's central plaza and the Lucky 666 Casino across the street, the doors you came in through, and a second set of doors at the right side of the office leading, uh, somewhere?~
Aurora: "...you are telling me... the "Great Demon Emperor Caesar", Scourge of the Nethermojave for many years, more resilient than a Level 9999 Radroach... was murdered by a random hobo."
Six: -ditches the windows and notes the rear doors and side doors-
He probably used a suppressed weapon to snap one of the ropes without the Legionnaire guards noticing.

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Aurora: "Back when I came to you to employ your company's services, I asked you to deal with the remaining Legionaire Raiders that had recently become more active as the holiday season approached. That was, if you recall, in the middle of December last year. But Caesar himself only came back on Christmas, after the terms of our contract were already agreed upon."
"...you see where I am going with this?"

Aurora: "Good. Because even if Kerberos Security was apparently not in any way responsible for Caesar's eventual, and hilariously fitting, demise, you nontheless spent several months fighting off the Legionaires attacking the city. Which was all that we had hired you for."

Six: Yep.
