[Garrus hears the words, takes the time to process them. It's funny, how both Shepard and Noh-Varr agreed, and one is struggling while the other is flourishing. But it's hard to grasp how this doesn't bother his lover. He pulls back from the gentle kisses enough to see Noh's face.]

That you're going to kill sentient beings who haven't done anything wrong doesn't bother you? At all?

[There's a difference between being aware of it coming down to this sometime, and actually having the time come.]

If it's regrettable, that means some regret, doesn't it? That it has some impact?

[Would Garrus be here if he'd had full disclosure? He doesn't think so. A couple of years ago, sure. But not as he is now. And yet he can't blame those who are here. Can't be angry with them, bothered by their choices. These worlds would be destroyed anyway, with or without them.]
