And now we've exhausted my limited German.
Isn't there always a reason? And when the shopping channel opens again you can get a shotgun.
¿hablas español?
I mean, we were talking about hair. And he put it straight back on.
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
If I have the credits for one, it'll be the first thing I buy.
Sí, hablo español!
...Never mind. You still don't have this figured out.
muy bueno. yo... tengo un gato...?
I never said I had anything figured out.
Donde esta el gato? Mis gatos tienen hambre todo el tiempo.
You said you had his shirt off. I figured that was you making progress.
... en realidad, no tengo un gato. Quiero una mascota ;_;
He had his shirt off. I didn't have anything to do with it.
That's why this whole thing is so stupid.
Lo siento. :( Tienes un animal de peluche?
Wait. I'm not following. What whole thing is stupid? Does he just take his shirt off for any woman who coughs blood on him?
¡Sí! Tengo un perro de peluche lindo y un... bulbasaur.
Because we're friends. Niko and I. That's it.
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
And I didn't think anything of the shirt thing or anything else until you brought it up.
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
And now you've brought it up, you can't...unbring it up.
[Well done, Garrus. Tali is really flustered now. You win.]
...Un bulbasaur. Yes. That's totally Spanish.
Damn. Just friends? Because he seems a decent guy.
I JUST CHECKED. BULBASAUR IS BULBASAUR IN SPANISH hell yes
He is. He's a great person. But we're not dating.
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
I'm probably the most high-maintenance person on this crew for dating, anyway.
[Between her full-body chastity belt and lack of immunity to anything...]
ROFL
You haven't dated Noh-Varr.
[Too many have, and are...]

...I wonder if I should tell him you said that...
no subject
You can tell him anything I say that's all joking. That's less joking than I'd like it to be.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Caring about him doesn't make knowing that he still needs others too any easier.
no subject
Don't worry, I was joking. I'm not going to tell Noh-Varr anything you say to me.
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
You've told him how you feel about that, right?
no subject
Yeah. He knows it's not the easiest thing for me but I'm working on it.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
It's still worth it, Tali. Promise. He found me yesterday, after, and I got reminded of every single reason I'm with him.
no subject
Maybe it's not just you that should be "working on it"...
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
I'm not making a point of being single forever. It's just... kind of difficult, that's all. Logistics.
no subject
I know. I've thought that too. But what do I do? I love him, Tali. I was stupid and didn't watch my feelings and now this. Didn't see it coming.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
At least Niko's sounded the loyal type, from our talks. And it's better to have someone, when your standards and convictions are falling apart, here. But I get the logistics being difficult.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
I mean, in a general sense. Can't really say I've put thought into how it works for quarians and others. Can't really say I was planning on changing that.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Do we need to see if we can't upgrade the haroomba to emit a bio-cleansing field, something it can use on people who enter your rover?
no subject
I know. I'm not telling you to do anything. I just wish HE would.
[She does consider, for a moment, whether it not to tell him about Telumi, tell him that there's Telumi, who she's had a dumb crush on for... a while now, and at the same time there's Niko, and her feelings for him - attraction to him - have sneaked up on her without warning. Or maybe they were there all along.
Maybe she shouldn't think too badly of Noh-Varr after all.]
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
You're the one who brought the conversation in this direction. You've only got yourself to blame.
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
I'm impressed. You're suggesting making the haroomba a wingman.
no subject
He really is doing more, saying more, Tali. It's not perfect, but what in our lives ever has been? I love him. Maybe it's not a smart move, but I'm gonna hope.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Any port when your engines are failing. Especially because I don't want to know how quarians manage things. Got a feeling Fornax is all lies and fake images and I don't wanna know.
no subject
I don't think these things are smart a lot of the time. That'd make things too easy. But I really hope this works out. For both of you.
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
...they have quarians in fornax. what?
[Screw your delicate sensibilities, Garrus, this is mind-blowing information.]
no subject
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Of course they do. They've got everything.
no subject
Right, everything ELSE. I didn't think they'd have quarians...or fake quarians, or whatever. I don't know, I just didn't think about it.
no subject
What did you think the all-species issue was?
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Actually, don't answer that. Let's not even talk about this. Have a good day, Tali.
no subject
...Didn't know they did one.
[But it's good to know someone knows these things.]
FROM: vasneema.talizorah@cdc.org
You too. Talk to you later.
