A lot of people brought back more. Some brought back nothing after the avalanche. You did good, with the circumstances.

Blue took care of them, then Hornet took them back. I think they're keeping them, but not like anyone tells me everything.

Chi. They're like moths but bigger. I had four of them.

Do you need some warmth now? I can always give you some sunlight?
plex: (✫ that reminds me.)

Does your rover have a wall oven?

This is important.
plex: (✫ happy new year.)

I have pancake mix here with your name on it, in case you'd forgotten.


[It literally has his name on it, as in, Noh-Varr gently carved 'GV' onto the box so he wouldn't mix the dextro and levo up.]

Is now a bad time?

I didn't take you for a gossip. I'll be there in a moment.


[True enough, he's there within minutes, two boxes of pancake mix under one arm, along with the pre-packaged mixing bowls and some plates.

Oh, and syrup. The most important part.

When he hops in, the haroomba bumps into his leg as it tries overexcitedly to clean up after him, and he offers Garrus a smile.]


Sleep well?

It's for a lot of things, but I've survived sleeping in snow with the warmth from my light.

You should be jealous, though. And happy I'm willing to share.
plex: (✫ this was meant to be fun.)

I can imagine. 220, please. [He feels a twinge of guilt for not being there.] I wanted to help, but--Armada had other plans.

[Does he sound bitter to you? He might be a little teeny bit bitter. He's the camp's prettiest lawn ornament, or something.] All the Blues had to watch over our haul, though. [His tone switches to smug. Poor bastards.] And then, well--this mission happened.

[One thing after the other. He begins mixing pancake mix, using separate sets of bowls and separate dishware. He takes his friends' health seriously.]

Huh. I guess I gotta keep that in mind for... all this shit. I never thought I was gonna go to space, before all this. Most people didn't.

He wanted me to keep guard in front of his and Warriorhead's rover. I'm not kidding. [He runs a hand through his hair, visibly a little annoyed. The camp's prettiest lawn ornament.] They came back--Warriorhead was single-handedly dragging along an adult frostbrood. I heard Armada was at the site, helping to rescue the recruits, so they must not have been out hunting the entire time.

[Maybe Warriorhead went alone.]

And more recently--we set up the targeting server. Ghost and Neheda took us to the mountains, east of here. Sector R. [His voice mellows out, and his expression turns a little more grim. Ajna's days are numbered. On the one hand, the sooner this frozen goes gets wiped, the happier he'll be, on the other...well. It's still planetary destruction. Nothing he's never seen before, but nothing to make him too happy, either.

On the bright side, he's finished mixing. On the oven dish, he makes two large flat discs with the mixtures, making sure they don't touch.]
plex: (✫ i would have swapped in a second.)

[personal profile] plex 2014-08-06 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
[He scoffs, shrugging, and pops the dish in the oven.]

You think they tell us things? Funny. No, aside from giving us a deadline on getting the job done--but it's days, now, probably. How many, I can't say.

[Noh-Varr had, and is having, the same thoughts Garrus just did. How much can he put on the line for Earth?]

While we were up there, we saw something. A creature of unknown origin, presumably native to this place. Two of the hunting teams had encounters with it. [Saying-without-saying: that's an awful lot of territory for one beast to travel.]

[He tries to keep an eye on everyone who's been in stasis in medical, even though he isn't usually the one actually tending to them. Just in case.]
