So one of our days last a week your time, and I could be laid up for days with this damn infection.

...You really didn't think that one through, did you?

Wouldn't mind, but I've got more important things to worry about right now. Like Tali. I need to be out there searching for her. And let's not even get into the whole dead people not staying dead... thing. [Sigh.] Couldn't have picked a better time.

Thought you said you could handle it.

...Got no choice but to handle it, Shepard. And I will.

Like hell, Kal. An infection damn sure doesn't sound like 'handling it' to me.

[This is Shepard being concerned. It looks very much like anger, but trust me, it's not.]

[Shepard being concerned is occasionally just as scary as Shepard wanting to punch your face in. That takes some skill.]

Heh. Could be worse. It won't keep me down for long; I can give you my word on that.

If anyone can push through it, it'd be you.

[I know, right?]

Just so we're clear, is this the same word you gave me when you said you could handle it?

Knowing you, you'll try to be up an about regardless of infection or not.

I wouldn't worry too much about Tali even if she does have a way of getting into trouble here and there.

[...Ouch.]

I'd already made what repairs I could. It... wasn't my priority at the time.

Right. Like hell an infection is going to get the better of me.

Just don't forget to come up for some air.

[Sorry, Kal, she's just. Getting frustrated with you silly suicidal quarians.

Either way, she shakes her head and sighs.] I'm taking your word for it, then. [It's not like she has much other choice.]

Heh. You know me too well, ma'am.

I know she can handle herself, Shepard. But she just disappeared without a trace. First there were monsters running rampant and now there are... "zombies". And she's nowhere to be found. I can't help but worry.

Monsters and zombies? Seems like par for the course of what we're used to dealing with. If anybody can find her, it's you.

[Besides... himself, that is.]

Still, Don't push yourself too hard out there. I would really prefer you not dead.
