You should keep in mind that her agent wasn't actually part of DoI and was essentially doing it as part of a punishment detail (which she failed at doing), so that advice is invalid here.

Quite frankly, the fact of the matter is that you're going into uncharted territory in regards to what would happen because no one has written that sort of situation yet, so you are the one who decides what would happen. No one else has come up with anything, so you get to do so.

Aster Corbett started out being told to just survey the Sue, but over the course of the fic was persuaded to charge and kill the Sue like she normally would.

She faced no repercussions in the immediate mission, but later missions had her paying penalties for it, such as remedial assignments and probation.

That's how I did it, but other people can do it in different ways I guess.
