You were having a pretty bad day. I'll give you that. And thanks.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
How're you doing?
no subject
better. i managed to sleep, even with the
FROM: anders@cdc.org
"noise" doesnt really seem like a good enough word for it
no subject
Screams. That's what it felt like. Maybe it's not accurate. But there was a lot behind it.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Glad you got some sleep, though. Maybe we're in for a break for a few now, but better to be rested in case we're not.

at this point i think its safer to assume we arent
FROM: anders@cdc.org
whatever that was, i certainly wouldnt call it a positive development
no subject
Plan for the worst, hope for the best. It's a pretty universal sentiment.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Let me know if I can help Hawke with any tech questions or issues. Remember to tell her the rovers aren't mage-powered.
no subject
when are you going to let that go
no subject
Five, six decades from now. Give or take a few years.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
It's a good one. Even you've gotta admit that.
no subject
i dont have to admit anything
[anders stop]
FROM: anders@cdc.org
the only way anything like that would work where im from is with magic. i dont think it was that outrageous an assumption to make
[anders please]
no subject
It's more advanced tech. Your world will have it eventually. And your world will have scientific explanations for more. It's what all worlds do as they progress.
[Takes two to... whatever it is they're doing.]
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Everything's magic until you know how it works.
no subject
do you really want to start this again?
[Too late because he's starting it.]
FROM: anders@cdc.org
we know how magic works. maybe your world is the one that hasnt caught up yet
no subject
It's not my world that doesn't have scientific reasons for why someone's a mage and why others aren't.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Anyone ever tell you you're fun to rile up and tease? Did Hawke have to make her animal sit on you?
no subject
He opts not to try it.]
FROM: anders@cdc.org
its a dog. do you seriously not have dogs where youre from?
[He's also not honoring either of those questions with a response.]
no subject
So that's a dog. We have some similar things on Palaven, but nothing that looks quite like that. And you don't see pets that big in space.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Rodents, fish, small reptiles, that's what you're likely to see out there. Space is at a premium. In space.
[He sees the avoidance... and counts it as a win.]
no subject
doesnt seem like the cdc got that message
FROM: anders@cdc.org
there are just as many animals as people in my rover. provided legend doesnt eat my chicken any time soon
no subject
The CDC doesn't pack us all into a ship the whole time. They operate a little differently.
[Way to ignore his totally funny joke there.]
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
My rover's never had that problem. Had a bahari for a while, Piper, but just the one. And then a lot of flowers.
no subject
FROM: anders@cdc.org
ill take the bahari over the flowers personally. at least we can be reasonably certain the bahari wont kill us
no subject
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Yamanaka Ino's managing the flowers. She knows a lot about them from home, so we're safe.
no subject
thats actually legitimately reassuring
FROM: anders@cdc.org
i think id still pick the bahari though
no subject
Well. If I actually had a choice in the matter, I might too. But I'm short on useful animals.
no subject
thats a shame. its nice to have cats around the rover
FROM: anders@cdc.org
even if one of them does try to eat my chicken on a daily basis
no subject
We have Mogget. I like him. Not sure about other cats.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Unless bahari count. I'd take a bahari any day of the week.
no subject
i think the bahari are as close to cats as any of us will get out here
FROM: anders@cdc.org
i havent seen an ordinary cat here that hasnt talked back to me yet
no subject
And I've never seen an ordinary cat in my life.
[No points for looking in the mirror, no matter how many people (like Dagger) wanted to call Garrus one.]
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Maybe if you ask nicely someone can get you a cat. Tell Ghost one would make you more efficient or something.
no subject
as nice as that would be, i dont think even i could pull a lie like that off
[About making him more efficient.
That, and he refuses to ask the instructors for anything he doesn't expressly need just on principle.]
no subject
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
If I wasn't as bad a liar as I am, I might offer to help. But I am. And your chicken might take personal offense to you having a cat, so let's not.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Thanks accepted, doc. Call me if you wind up needing backup again; I'll be there.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Doc doesn't really work. Healer? Heals? I like heals. Thanks accepted, heals.
