[a slight laugh.]

Thank you. I'll do that when my body no longer feels like staging a revolt.

Any other time, I'd be curious to try your drink despite the differences, but I have to be kind to myself now.

I'm in my rover. [directions here. shouldn't be that far.]

But if it's too difficult right now, don't worry - we can schedule it another time.

It's been a very long and confusing week, after all, and it's hardly even begun.

If you're sure.

[he does as garrus asks. his movements are slow and measured. he'll have something set up outside, two chairs and a stump of a tree doubling as a table.

he'll greet him as he comes with a wan smile.]


Hope you don't mind being outside - I'm sick of staring at the rover.

[laughing - ] You'll have to teach me about your people sometime.

[fills his own cup, leans back. they look like old men. erwin at least feels damn old, but this is only the beginning of things.]

I'd rather be walking, really, but .... can't do much when I'm still in pain, even now.

[he glances at him.] I'm guessing you know as much as I do with regards to the why and how of this scenario.

[quietly - ] In a bit, you may.

Having said that - would you say that your team has done the best they can? That regardless of each recruit's personal shortcomings - would you otherwise evaluate all your efforts as more than adequate?

It's the same for me as well.

[he takes a drink.] What I don't understand is why even bother if we're going to destroy Macha in the first place.

[for that to happen - they must want something very badly on their part, and they didn't get it. it's difficult to say this without giving details of their mission to garrus, and he'd rather not break gag rules, but all the same. it makes for a good discussion topic.]

[so there's a method to planetary destruction. not bad. and garrus is right, the neraki would make things difficult for the recruits ....

but no matter how he looks at it, whether the neraki live or die matters very little to erwin. if they have the advantage of technology at their side, then they will always have the upper hand. and having the upper hand is important to him where his contract is concerned. he may not agree with what the cdc stands for, but he's here to protect his world. and he'll do anything to achieve that.

the extinction of a few species means nothing to him, though it'd be great to understand why and how he failed so that he doesn't end up being collateral for missions.]


We already know they'd be difficult. [a sigh.] The lack of feedback on our efforts, however, is problematic. We don't know the Neraki beyond what's written in their files. We can't learn from our mistakes if we are consistently asked to look to our own faults on the matter.

I am, however, not optimistic enough to be given answers on this anytime soon.

Dagger's normally the most forthcoming out of all of them, isn't he? [at least, from what he's seen of his responses to people anyway.]

I've been in this position before - can't exactly say I enjoyed it either. But you know, Garrus, when your options are 'do or die', there's very few reasons for someone to lash out regardless of how confusing or frightening the situation is.

Someone might want us to break. The expectation is that all of us will pull together and carry through regardless, and hopefully an explanation will be found somewhere in between.

I'm not sure if they thought we mattered in the first place. After all, the only thing we truly own in this place are our contracts, nothing more.

[erwin thinks about what garrus tells him about the instructors. he actually finds gliese and warriorhead similar in terms of their responses - what he's seen and heard, anyway - and as gliese is captain, that she never answers things satisfactorily doesn't really bother him as much considering she's not obligated to do that; and erwin himself has certainly been in the same position, so he's sort of more willing to let that pass. but armada, given that armada heads green, tends to have a more direct way of speaking, like dagger. and he's never found ghost to be cryptic, though he tends to omit a lot of things.

he's never spoken to gale, so he can't really comment on him.]


We'll do what we have to, either way. After two planets, I think people are more inclined to look after each other, given what we go through and what others have gone through. [an amused smile; curiously, he asks - ]

Do you think of this as home?
