Or something. That inspirational quote may be a bit off but it's exactly what would be hanging on their clubhouse wall, probably.

Reasonable...? That isn't a word that I would use to describe them, no. [Kaoru's lips purse briefly, and then:] So you don't believe them when they say that they've done us a favor? That they've supposedly rescued us?
[Because that's definitely the camp Kaoru is in. Camp paranoid shithead... If it turns out that CERES is actually behind everything, or if it's all a big fat lie - well, there sure wouldn't be any surprise present in this nerd.
When Elliot drops his speed, Kaoru bumps into his back gently and with a muffled "sorry", either distracted or unable to see.] —If that's the case, then we shouldn't take the risk that would be necessary to try catching one. [OBVIOUSLY.] Please don't risk yourself unnecessarily, sir.
[Though if they really are in the clear, that becomes a non-issue. ...Not that Kaoru thinks they are. Temporary silence never lasts with bad luck.]
