The only motivation I can come up with for a punishment that's framed like this, delivered like this, is intimidation.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Not gonna add to that with the biggest guy in the camp collapsing in front of people. I refuse.

I don't want to, Vriska.
[A part of him, on first reading the mission, had wanted someone close. And then he'd stopped, because he doesn't want them thinking about him like that. Doesn't want anyone remembering the time he'd seized up and panicked and fought desperately for air.]

Saw someone go through what I think is coming. Don't want anyone to see that.

And I didn't want me to see anyone throwing up my stupid ghosty alien guts all over the snow on Ajna. 8ut Noh-Varr did, and 8ecause of that he was a8le to save my life.
[ Bringing up Noh right now is cruel and she knows it. That's the point. ]

Come on. You know 8etter than this. Your pride isn't more important than your exoskeleton!

Did I tell you to start manipulating? I told you to learn it, not do it. Learn the rules, then protect others by warning them of the rules.

[That... actually makes tactical sense. There's just one problem.]
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
I don't even know where to start learning.

[It's such a low blow. But Garrus also knows that if something happens to him, Noh-Varr has Ryan, and Pilot, and Warriorhead.]

Thank you, Vriska.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
I'm not going to find someone. I have nanites. I'm forewarned. But thank you for being concerned.
[Which she'll probably deny and then they'll have an entirely different topic. He means the thanks. But he also knows they'll probably set her off.]

You watch. You listen. Everything that you hate so much about manipulating you will need to do. How do you think our kind get so good?

[ Vriska is a predictable creature, and the thanks does piss her off. Largely because she thinks he's trying to bait her with those words, and she's too frayed and too angry to brush it off. ]
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Fine. Suffer alone. See if I give a shit! Have a grand old fucking time and try not to die. L8r, Garrus.

[You know the nice thing about the CDC tech? As long as Zelos knows someone's ID code and they're in a three mile radius he never has to wonder where they are. It's a complete violation of privacy, abusive, downright cruel in some scenarios. Zelos doesn't have much to excuse it, but he doesn't have the masochism to refrain from using it either.
So after looking up Garrus's current location he's swinging by. I think this means knocking on his rover door, but correct me if I'm wrong, If Garrus looks fine he's completely ready to make up some bullshit and go on his merry way. But. But... He does owe Garrus one doesn't he? This is something he's not inclined to shirk from.]

Then all I can advise you to do is watch, listen and learn from the pros. I would say for you to start with the unit leads or the instructors.

CALLING: LAST NAME, FIRST NAME
Hope you don't mind the call. Texting is a bit difficult right now.
Are you alright?

Yeah, already had one instructor pull something. Though the Green unit leads aren't people I'd watch for this sort of thing.

There any unit leads you'd suggest?

[For a few moments Garrus debates answering the door or not. He feels like shit. But he'd told Noh-Varr to find him, and he's not wanting to be a jerk to people. When he answers the door, Garrus doesn't look good. His mandibles are sagging and there's no energy in his eyes or his arms.]
Zelos.
[Even his voice is hoarse, subharmonics ragged.]
Looking for someone?

I know and trust my own unit and unit leads, but we Oranges thrive on intel. We keep in touch constantly.

Start with the blues or the reds. Reds will know certain things we don't, but blues will know of plans in advance or so I would imagine.

Asking for who plays games, not asking for who has advanced info. Yeah, Red and Blue probably have more of a head's up, wouldn't be surprised. But that doesn't mean they all play things.

Hm. There's your first lesson: be specific. Leave no room for errors or for interpretation in your words. I am one of those who plays those games and we will absolutely find loopholes to our advantage.
