Izen, did you read literally ANYTHING besides your own roll?

Actions will be slow. You've got to load the page to read the roll and make an action, regardless. If you load the entire page, you can read all of it rather than just one tiny chunk.
And if you're not going to read the entire roll (and in this case important stuff from after, but that's an exception rather than a rule) then don't make an action. In this case, his question was answered right in the game events, and then heavily elaborated on in the next page.

I was trying to put in an action before I lost connection again.
I'm back now though and reading it all.
I goof'd, apologies.

Current responses are...
Rag: Ask the crew
Fail Flail: Ask the girl
Miggles: Get rid of, but don't care.
Tomaster: Get rid of.
Izen: Get more info.

Hm. Zero consensus! Awesome!

Sedraxis finally speaks up.
"Is there a way to come to some other agreement? Like, can you prove you're not going to eat her or something? What even is the Vanash or Gaurdians?"
I will not be leaving this vessel without the girl, if that's what you are trying to suggest. I have my duty, and I would not sully that by harming her.
The Vanash is the name for the people who live in the Great Sky above this one. I do not believe most Lower Sky vessels can reach it, so contact between the two is minimal. We Guardians are the various races of sentient creatures in the Great Sky, and we live in harmony with the Vanash. They provide various services outside of our own capabilities, and we provide our power and unique magic to them.
In my case, my species serves many judicial and defensive roles, owing to our speed and battle-capable magic.

Sedraxis heads down below, and has Grif bring Sera up. She comes trailing Grif and holding his hand, like any child would with a parent.
"Why's a Flyet here? Are you here for me, mister Flyet?
...Flyet. Flying ferret? A fitting enough moniker.
Yes, little one. I am here to return you, before anything happens.
Please, do not try to escape this time.

Truthfully, until we have all the facts, I don't really think we're in much of a position to delay it regardless.

The ferret lifts its nose, and a small magic circle appears around its snout for a moment. Off to the side of the ship, a similar circle appears, only much larger. A swirling vortex then appears on the larger circle, shimmering and distorting the light around it. From the vortex emerges a small floating island, barely large enough for a person to sit on.
If you could load the girl, and secure her? I'm afraid my own body contains too much magic to not activate her.

Upon further inspection, the small island has three chain collars attached. The longer, thicker of the two, the ferret floats over to himself and attaches to one of his legs. The other are very short, only about a foot long, and look like they would attach around the ankles.
"But... we were gonna adventure..."

"What? Chains?! I'm sorry Mr so called 'guardian', I've had my doubts about you from the beginning but this is just one step too far! We'll take your advise and keep her away from magic, but we'll do no more."

Yeah, chains. They're generally used to contain someone who's A) dangerous and B) already escaped once. He's clearly not going to kill her, because I get the strangest feeling if he was it'd be over by now. And again, we don't know all the facts, and just because she looks vulnerable doesn't mean she isn't as dangerous as Ferret Boy here claims.

Before the Guardian can object, James speaks up as well.

The man is correct, somewhat. I cannot so much as touch her without activating her condition, so for her execution, it must be one with low levels of natural magic. The species of Guardian thus selected cannot easily venture down to the Lower Sky, so instead I was sent to retrieve her.
