Mun,
I don't need Harbinger fucking up my Spectre Academy. That you have somehow enabled that obsessed piecea shit Reaper to download into a comatose Spectre candidate is not even remotely awesome. He's creepy as shit, woman. Sure, you've got a big old backstory for this dude--all exemplary, badass, and ripe for the third Human Spectre title, and you even have a decent reason for his eye color (shitty color choices for alien produced artificial eyes works since he was pretty far out when his eyes got jacked) but damn. Harbinger? C'mon. I've got enough to deal with with this gene splicing, hybridization project. Look, I'm trying to start a family with Garrus while training up new Spectres. That's the most normal I've gotten in the last four years.

...shit.

You're gonna screw it all up anyway, aren't you?

Great. Just fucking awesome.

...that's all for now.

'Normal' isn't a luxury we're allowed.

God. Tell me about. [Just pinching the bridge of her nose.]

Reapers in humans, huh? I've got a solution for that.

[Taps his pistol on his hip.]

Gonna agree with that.

Better yet, if it's Harbinger, just jam your boot up his ass -- do the universe a favor.

Don't worry. I will.

So what gave your mun the bright idea to let that happen?

She was playing some sort of what if game and thinking about self-preservation tactics for Harbinger. At least that's what I figure. Hell if I know what goes through her mind these days. Personally, I think she needs more sleep. Her bags are starting match mine.

That's...

Hmm.

The phrase you're looking for is fucked up, Miranda.

Can't say that was the image which came to mind when Harbinger was threatening to make human soup out of the Terminus Systems, no... Or even anything resembling a human face, at all.

That host body's going to end up with self-mangled vocal chords by the end of the day, isn't he?

So far Marcus has a really deep voice, but otherwise he's pretty normal. Aside from those damned eyes. And being a creepy motherfucker.

Wasn't the image I got, either. I imagine a human body is pretty much prison for Harbinger.

And prone to nervous breakdowns, if what I hear Legion said about interfacing with a Reaper's raw processing power is anything to go by. The human brain probably isn't calibrated for anything of that magnitude.

You were lucky the beacon on Eden Prime didn't kill you - and that was just Prothean. He must be getting a thousand ice cream headaches a second.

Coulda been a partial download like a seed. Just enough to infect, take over and then grow.

Call me a sadist, but I prefer the thought of him/it being mentally crippled for life...

Mm. The mun says at least this way it's a gradual process with room for development and not a one-off. Harbinger in a human body, shit. No matter how this goes, it's gonna get ugly. [Shepard just shakes her head.]

He looks like that guy from Prison Break.

Edited 2012-07-30 02:44 (UTC)

The mun says she's never watched the show, but yeah. That's the right face for the guy. Pretty creeptastic.

I watched it. Cool show, until it flipped out that is. [Shrugs] Sadly my mun isn't that familiar with it.

What's a Reaper? Got a feeling it isn't a skeleton in black cape and scythe.

Edited 2012-07-30 03:00 (UTC)

Mine's not either, his face just fit the bill of creepy as hell.

A Reaper is giant spacefaring mechanical cephalopod bent on Universal domination and the extermination of all organic life. Oh, and it comes with some pretty bigass lasers that are handy for razing anything in its path. Artificial Intelligence at it's most fucked up.

It must have been pretty bored to take over a human then.

If these creatures are robots why don't you just pull the plug out?

You're cute. Really. [Shep takes a seat and gets all Professor Sarka, her expression sharp.]

Imagine thousands and thousands of these fuckers all up in your face, little to no warning. Each one of them big old fucking lasers and a shitton of re-purposed armies made from the converted bodies of Humans and aliens. They come in hard and fast and they burn your planet down so fast that some worlds committed mass suicide than be taken and made into, hell, zombies. They show up every fifty thousand years, take the dominant race, liquify them, and feed the organic sludge into a processing unit that pretty much makes a new Reaper.

They say it's to preserve knowledge so that oraganics won't ultimately blow each other up and destroy whatever knowledge they've gained. It's a fucking lie--we're fine without that kinda help or would be if they didn't fuck everything up each cycle.

[She shook her head.]

In my war? They kept coming like a wave of death. Or did. Took a whole fucking universe of aliens and humans working together to build the one thing that finally stopped them. So, yeah. We pulled the plug. Damaged our universal transportation in the process, but we did it. I lost good people along the way, real good people.

Oh... [Aaron gets pretty much rendered speechless. The only thing he can think is that he's glad that it didn't happen in his world. But that's hardly something he should take up.]

One of the biggest mistakes I've ever made about muns is that they want us to have anything normal.

Yeah, I learned that the hard way.

Edited 2012-07-30 08:01 (UTC)

I guess the reasoning is that if we had 'normal' lives we'd cease being interesting. It's crap. I guess I should be happy I get quiet moments every now and again.

She likes to say I need to find the peace in between the battles. I guess life is one massive goddamn battlefield of possibilities.
