[well if this isn't freaking great.

so, he's missed the part about zeta district being quarantined until just now, and he can't say he likes the look of what the hell is going on out there. he's seen these things before - because uh, didn't we just have to deal with this? come on! but it doesn't surprise him to see that here are still some stragglers left behind.

he peers into his omni-tool with one eyebrow raised, a very unimpressed expression sliding across his face.] So, I dunno about you guys, but I think I'm gonna stay inside for this one. It looks like it's raining bullets and damn if I didn't forget my bulletproof galoshes.

[pause.] I thought we got rid of all these things. Hey, either of you Shepards - what the hell's the deal?

I'm gonna assume they're the ones in charge, huh?

[She recognizes that tone for what it is - so this is just another piece of the "long story" that is this place, huh? Great. Her gaze goes back out the window as he talks, and she hopes that one doesn't come up this way anytime soon.]

Great. So they mutate people. Do they die like everything else at least?

[airraid]

They're the big ones, yeah .. Anderson's the first human to have a seat on the Council. He's kinda been our bro since this whole thing started.

[and don't get him started on all that bullshit. first it was geth and sovereign, then the collectors, and now more goddamn reapers .. god, he's starting to feel like shep and needs a nap.]

Oh, that's the good part. Put a few bullets in them, and they die just like anything else. Depending on the weapon? They might explode and give you blue confetti. That's kinda cool.

[traitortwin]

What, like a giant piñata? [She actually smirks at that.] Guess that's another reason to take 'em out. Not that I needed one.

[airraid]

You got it. [hm .. he likes you, south. he's pretty sure you're going to be his favorite roommate.] Gotta say, it's fun watching them explode all over the place. And .. yeeeah, I didn't think you needed another one. No one does.

[traitortwin]

[Favorite roommate... that could be a mixed blessing for her...]

Too bad it's not candy, then. But I guess explosions are satisfying enough on their own.

[airraid]

[well you're better than a crazy sword dude and a spastic salarian, he'll tell you that much.

but her comment has him grinning.] Explosions are always satisfying, you got that right. Man, I've never seen anything as satisfying as the Collector base getting blown to tiny bits and pieces of ancient technology.
