Hey Mun,

Thanks for preparing your headspace with an eclectic collection of shady characters and aliens and I don't even know; it really makes me feel at home. You must have been warned that I feel out of place if I'm not surrounded by people who know at least ten unique ways of killing me. And here I thought it was only the Commander who was that thoughtful.

But seriously, though, what are we doing? I'm all up for adventures, sure, but at least vague ideas and goals are generally a good idea, as opposed to "oh hey look, a funny guy." I know I'm hilarious and charming, but that's not the point right now. Direction helps, especially if you're putting me somewhere with the intent of being comic relief, rather than pilot extraordinaire. Just think about it, before you really commit to this. Or at least pretend to?

I have no doubt we'll be talking later.

[Do you know what could possibly make your day even better, Joker? A teenage girl who just thinks you're funny. Yep, that's the only reason why she's graced you with her presence.]

Could be worse. There could be twenty unique ways of killing you.

You'd be surprised what they come up with! I mean...how many people think of killed-by-giant-robot?

[notevengreat]

[This is the best reason to want to talk to him, really. He approves.]

I think you might be surprised by how many times that's come up already, actually. Giant bloodthirsty mechanical things are getting old. At this point, I think I'll take nano-killers for variety.

[littlecrowgirl]

Whoa! You can't just diss the classics! I mean that's like saying the old western stand-offs are out of date!

They're never out of date.

[notevengreat]

But how many stand-offs are you really going to sit through before it starts getting boring?

[littlecrowgirl]

[She stops and thinks about this.]

Depends. I mean if it was a western stand off between a chameleon and a snake, that'd be kinda cool.

I'd be like "Wow, how's that snake hold a gun?"

[notevengreat]

Okay, I'll give you that. But it's more of a situational thing, rather than having anything to do with the stand off. You don't even have to involve guns to be like "oh my god, that snake definitely just ate that giant robot."

[beatthebadguys]

Sounds like a fun bunch.

[notevengreat]

Really? Because it sounds like an insane asylum to me.

[beatthebadguys]

At least you'd have a lot of ways to get yourself out of pinch.

[notevengreat]

And even more ways to get into pinches.

[beatthebadguys]

Well that's the fun part!

[notevengreat]

There's something wrong with all of you.

[stilcalibrating]

Not up for a little adventure, Joker? And here I thought you enjoyed not knowing what will come next.

[notevengreat]

Hey, I like adventure just as much as everyone else, but I need to know if I'm going to be facing zombies or synthetics or Cerberus or awkward high school dances.

[stilcalibrating]

But that's half the fun isn't it? Not knowing exactly what's coming at you? Then again, I think if you're facing awkward high school dances you'd be safe.

[notevengreat]

Girls are mean, okay? There are enough on the ship that you should know this by now.

And I don't need specifics, just vague ideas.

[stilcalibrating]

I can't really speak for human females, most of them seem tame to the Turian ones. Besides, they mostly leave me alone, something about about me seems to scare them off.

You could always kick your Mun, or well, I guess you can't. Maybe throw things instead.

[notevengreat]

Yeah, it's called your face, Garrus.

I dunno, you really think throwing things at her would deter her at all, if she decides she wants something?

[justliketheolddays]

Nothing wrong with a little extra excitement and a few wiseass remarks no matter where you go.

[notevengreat]

Why did I already know you would say that if you showed up?

[justliketheolddays]

Because I'm me. Or I'm just that much of a jackbag.

[notevengreat]

Liiittle bit of both, likely, Commander.

[justliketheolddays]

Yeah, yeah. Good thing I straddle the middle.

[notevengreat]

A thumb in every pie. That's you alright.

[dominion_war_graduate]

Well, if a little direction helps, I could recommend a musebox for the time being while your mun keeps searching.

On the plus side, it'd mostly be the same stuff you're used to.

...The downside is, of course, that a lot of it would be similar to the stuff you're used to.
