mun just finished Citadel DLC; considering a canon update

[cmdreffingshepard]

It's a simple enough question. What would I give to know the galaxy will be saved from the Reapers?

A hell of a lot, and you knew that already.

Commander, having trouble with your mun?

[cmdreffingshepard]

Actually, in this case, we're pretty much in agreement. I think it's just a matter of timing.

How's yours treating you, Ash?

[calibrates_big_guns]

I'm sure it will be. If there's anyone I trust to get the job done, it's you, Shepard.

[cmdreffingshepard]

I appreciate that, Garrus.

But this is about having the opportunity to know the job gets done. To not have there be any question.

[calibrates_big_guns]

There's a part of me that thinks it might be better not to know until it's done. Yes, knowing if we win is huge ... but imagine knowing if we lose?

[He's not sure he could take it. The Crucible was their only hope, and if it fails ... then every decision he made in this whole war, including having the fleet pull away from Palaven, was for nothing. He didn't even care so much if he died. It's something he'd made his peace with a long time ago. It's knowing that his father, and sister, and friends would all be killed too. It's knowing that Shepard was going to die.]

But ... maybe I'm just worrying about this too much. I, ah, tend to do that. Maybe all it'll do is let you finally get some sleep, I don't know.

[cmdreffingshepard]

Honestly, I'll take knowing over not knowing, any day. No matter the outcome.

I might lose sleep, but I'd be willing to lose a lot more than that.

[calibrates_big_guns]

I know, you are. Some of us would prefer you not going out in a blaze of glory, though.

[cmdreffingshepard]

Well, it's not my first choice.

[calibrates_big_guns]

I had my suspicions. [He grins.] Besides, dying once only pissed you off. I'd hate to see how grumpy you'd be for round two.

[cmdreffingshepard]

I have a feeling even I've used up all my chances.

I know I'm aping the game, but there's nothing better I could possibly say.

[calibrates_big_guns]

Well then excuse the insubordination, but your boyfriend's got an order for you. Come back alive. The galaxy'd be a lot emptier without you, Shepard.

lol

[cmdreffingshepard]

Not planning to die just yet, Garrus.

[calibrates_big_guns]

Good. I still plan on taking you up on that vacation after all of this is over.
