1) He's usually quite good at talks. His plan with the Initiative, once he's made contact, is to show them some activity from the Network, so they'll know there's a whole population wanting to come down and get into their fight. He's not sure it will get them to to trust them exactly, but hoping it will at least intrigue/entice them into wanting to know more, and to be able to bargain for power for the Transports' tech, and a cover for them when they all arrive.
2) He's combat capable. He's confident with his weapon, and being able to fight his way out, if need be. He wouldn't leave someone who wasn't, if Travis needed help.
