[ Steve lifts his glass with a slight cant of his head. ] To looking out for our crew.

[ They're all in this together, one way or another. He hasn't yet heard about the incident with Optimus.

After that he takes a drink and sets the pint back down on the table. ] Armada said we've got seven days out here. Any plans?

[ He has approximately zero of the R&R variety. More interested in what they've stopped here for. Maybe just resupplies. ]

[He joins in the drink before answering.]

Seven days is a lot of days. More than I really know what to do with. But I'm probably gonna take a look at the museum. Don't expect I'm going to find anything, but...

[Garrus chuckles, shakes his head.]

Maybe the holes will tell me something. Anything. I've got a squad and I'm flying mostly blind here. Could really use figuring some of this place out.

[ He nods, having thought the same about both the length of time and checking things out. ]

Well, we knew before that the CDC's business wasn't just in destruction. [ Lusania was a defense job, and given all the redactions on that file he got the feeling there was something specific the company wanted from that planet. He taps his glass with his fingers. ] I guess they've also got their hands in... pricey condominiums. And trade ports.

[ For whatever the hell they trade in outside of world-destroying. ]

Makes it interesting, doesn't it. A corporation dabbling in that much. A lot of money goes into the ships, obviously. I'm wondering if more, though, goes into tech. Teleportation. Bringing people back to life. Animating the skeletons, however long it lasts.

[Either they pay to develop it, or they pay to purchase it. Garrus leans toward develop. It's safer, that way. Exclusive. And if Solus is still alive, it could be where he got transferred to. That, though, is too optimistic for Garrus, and he needs to focus on here and now.]

Wondering if they're in some sort of tech race. They've got enemies. Maybe they're all working toward the next big development to try to take each other out. Definitely not a promising prospect.

Not sure interesting's the word I'd use. [ The power they hold on their own is terrifying, to say the least. If there really is more than one of these businesses out there on this level - he shakes his head, taking another drink.

Not a promising prospect, no. He frowns. ]

You get to talk to any of those recruits in collars?

Interesting is a good word. Neutral. You can use it and people can hear admiration or fear, depending on what they wanna hear, and you can argue the case for it meaning either.

[Interesting is rarely good, except when it comes to interesting vids. But what matters is how it's spun, especially when dealing with the CDC. The other topic has his mandibles drawing close to his face.]

Talked to a bunch of them. Some of them new. Some of them crew. Some of them... well, a pair I'd hoped I wouldn't ever see again. They should've stayed dead, though it's pretty clear by now that the CDC doesn't let things like death stand in their way. You?
