[ In truth, Garrus is one of the people he's least worried about. Not for lack of caring, but because he's a capable guy and doesn't need a babysitter.
It doesn't mean he doesn't worry at all. ]
FROM: kirstein.jean@cdc.org You made it here okay, right?
Nope. Arbuckal messaged me earlier, asked how my group did. You came up, but mostly because I'm just trying to find out where people are, if it's three points again or more this time.

...why didn't I see this until now. I'm sorry!
I did. Safe and sound and in camp. And you? Watermonster didn't take a limb off, I'm hoping.
[Yeah, he... asked after you a little.]

Ajna was a test. Maybe the drop is the test for the new arrivals. The ones who survived fun and games on the ship.

Glad you and Yamanaka have stuck around. Piper too. Only a few left of the people I met that first week or two here.

Then again it's kind of sad when a cat outlasts a quarter of the crew

do you know humans that toss cats on buttered bread too?
