I take great care of my hamster.

[ Cue light throat clearing. ]

And I've improved my fish care abilities. No one messes with my animals.

I'm convinced that hamster is immortal.

[His mandibles pull up in a grin.]

I've heard it helps when you have an aquarium VI.

[saviorofthecitadel]

Better watch yourself, Vakarian.

I could always put you on tank cleaning duty.

[whoneedslegstofly]

Pfft. Right. And I ran a marathon last week. Nice one, Commander.

[saviorofthecitadel]

What? There haven't been any accidents lately.

I think that's an improvement, Joker.

[Can't help the smile]

A miniature Gigantic Space Hamster?

[calibrates_big_guns]

You could, but then you wouldn't have me to watch your back out in the field while I'm scraping fish crap off the walls of the tank. But at least you'd have Vega ...

[saviorofthecitadel]

He's normal sized, but don't tell him that.

[saviorofthecitadel]

You aren't jealous, are you, Garrus?

[calibrates_big_guns]

Who, me? Never. But think about it. You could have him watching your back, or the guy who could hit a hostile target from two miles away in 10 mile an hour wind. Just saying.

[saviorofthecitadel]

[ There's a sound that escapes her that's half snicker and half snort. ]

You're right, no one can compare to your shot, [ Besides herself, of course. ] but James needs his turn out on the field, too.

[calibrates_big_guns]

[He rolls his eyes a little at the snicker, grinning a little.]

Oh, I've got nothing against Vega. Just making the case that if anyone's on tank duty ...

[saviorofthecitadel]

Duly noted.

[calibrates_big_guns]

Besides, now that we've moved past genocide on small marine animals, who knows what's next?

I'd say we can work on your, ahem, dancing, but, well, I'll give you this ... you can tango with the best of them.

[saviorofthecitadel]

I can't be that bad if you think my tango is good.

[calibrates_big_guns]

No comment.

Your tango is excellent though. Little risque, but, well, I like that.

[saviorofthecitadel]

It keeps things interesting.

I'm glad you enjoy it.

[calibrates_big_guns]

It made for a hell of a first date.

[whoneedslegstofly]

Only because you have other people watching your pets for you. That's not YOU taking care of them, Commander.

[saviorofthecitadel]

Yes, it certainly did.

[ Very fond memories that she will cherish forever. ]

[saviorofthecitadel]

I interact with them when I can. That counts for something, right?

[ Because, y'know, Reapers and Cerberus and all that fun stuff. ]

[whoneedslegstofly]

Uh huh. Is that why your hamster always freaks out when you come too close?

[Excuses, excuses, Shepard.]

[calibrates_big_guns]

[They're going to be with him until he dies.]

First of many. We'll have to do this more often once we're finished dealing with this whole Reaper business. Maybe someplace on Earth.

[saviorofthecitadel]

[ It's a valid reason, Joker. ]

He doesn't freak out; it's his personality. He's just shy.

[saviorofthecitadel]

It's a nice thought. I don't get to visit Earth often.

[whoneedslegstofly]

[Uh huh/]

Right. I hope that helps you sleep better at night, commander.
