After time adrift among open stars Along tides of light and through shoals of dust I will return to where I began.

missvasnormxndy started following you
          “I admit I’ve seen some unusual sights before…” there is pause in his actions. A hesitation clinging to him thickly. Sharp yellow eyes remained fixed on the helmet of what he could only guess was female. A frown curls at his features, the uncertainty leveling even higher. “But I’ve never seen any armor like that before.”

            ❝It's not really armour. It's my enviro-suit.❞ She glances down at herself, refusing to feel self-conscious when the human is staring so blatantly. But she's used to being under such scrutiny. Compared to the hostility she's faced before, his curiosity isn't so bad. ❝I'm not really surprised if you've never seen a quarian before. Not many of us will venture from the Flotilla unless we're on pilgrimage.❞

missvasnormxndy has approached you
Admiral," Garrus said with a polite nod as the quarian grew closer. "You’d probably prefer just plain ‘Tali,’ right? I don’t know about you, but I’d rather be known by my name than my title." Garrus had been called several things: brother, son, friend, enemy, C-Sec officer, vigilante, Archangel, and now Expert Reaper Adviser. Every time someone called him anything but his first or last name, he’d politely tell them that he preferred to be addressed as his given name, titles not required.
You doing alright? We haven’t really talked much recently.

        ❝I don't think I'll ever get used to having people address me as admiral. Especially not from you, Garrus.❞ She pulls a face at being addressed so formally. It's another unwanted reminder she's been trying to avoid. She's an admiral far from her fleet, even if what she's doing here with Shepard is for her people, for the entire galaxy.

        ❝I'm trying not to think about... well, everything. Usually work helps to keep my mind off things, but Adams has kicked me out of engineering again.❞

   ”.. I don’t think it’s gonna work—- 

                          why’re y’so persistant with this?”

                    ❝Because it should work.                           I've already wasted too many hours                               on this damn thing to give up now.                                  You look at this and tell me what's wrong.❞

"Dontcha think your jumpin’ the gun, here? If he’s a soldier, he’s probably tough enough to go handlin’ things without much more than a scratch. You always this worried with things?"

         ❝I used to think that too, but it'd always felt like...                 We were living on borrowed time.                          I was there at his first funeral.                     There wasn't even a body.                            And it'll be the same thing again.❞

❝Spaceship? As in— traveling in the Solar System?

That— can’t be feasible, could it? Space is bereft of essential oxygen sources, as well as a consistent gravitational pull. I’ve always read that it was an unsuitable vector for human life.❞

❝Oh—! I—  ah— yes!    But just one more question, Tali!    What exactly is a— uh— an omnitool?❞
Image

❝You've... never been on a spaceship? That's so strange. I've lived my entire life aboard one up until recently. Maybe if I ask Shepard, he might be nice enough to let up aboard the Normandy.

But, oh, yes! An omni-tool, it's this thing right here. I use mine mostly for running diagnostics, decryption... and some personal things. Oh, so that's a zeppelin. Hmmm... it doesn't look very safe.❞

             ❝I've told you already, none of it makes sense.                        I've gone over the schematics five times already,                              but the stupid machine still won't work.                                     I'm trying my best here.❞

                 ❝Someone important to me once told me                          that the best way to deal with personal issues                               like this is with copious amounts of liquor.                                      ------Up for a little drink?❞

  "Then I’m gonna need a picture to go off of.  Because all I’m getting is assassin dinosaurs. Tight leather— really? I thought that tight leather thing  died out with the dark ages.”

         ❝It's a simple extranet search              if you're so interested in seeing a krogan.                 Actually, I think I still have a few images                   of an old friend of mine on my omnitool...                 Here, see? No tight leather since he's not an assassin,                    but I think we should be glad for that.❞

"Giant…lizards. So dinosaurs?    Yeah I guess I do look like I got ran over by a dinosaur.      A new age assassin. You know—hood thing.”

Image

              ❝If you're referring to what I think you are, then no.                             Not quite like dinosaurs.                       And... I know a few assassins actually.                                     They seem to prefer tight leather.❞
