[Without warning, a rather abrupt text comes through.]

How are the repairs coming?

Re: text

[shotgunhacks]

[There's a small delay before a reply comes.]

Most internal systems are back online, and the debris has been cleaned up. The lost engine and the hull is going to take some time, though. I need to find the right kind of metal and components for the engine.

[fightforthelost]

Might be rare in this part of the universe. I'll see if I can get somebody else on it.

[Aria. That bitch can get anything.]

I'm on my way over to check everything out.

[And to drag your quarian ass to a bar.]

Re: text

[shotgunhacks]

I'll send you a list of what I need, and suitable substitutions if those don't work out.

I'll be down in the med bay if you need me. Elevator should be working properly by now.

Hey.

Still up?

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[shotgunhacks]

Mostly.

I want to finish getting the Med Bay functional first.

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[calibrating]

That's gonna take a while. You'll be there all night.

I'm about to put the last touch on repairing this hull breach. Want some help?

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[shotgunhacks]

You got to that already? Good. Once that's done I can start putting wiring up there again, and scaffolding for repairing the wing.

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[calibrating]

After a good night's rest, right?

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[shotgunhacks]

I can get started on it, at least. Jobs aren't up yet this month, so I don't need a strict sleep schedule. I'll stop when I'm tired.

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[calibrating]

Yeah no.

I'll help you with the med-bay but then we're calling it quits for today. You need to rest.

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[shotgunhacks]

Yes, dad.

[Screw that she'll sneak off to Engineering to get work done down there.]

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[calibrating]

I mean it.

You might sort of kind of may be worrying one or two of us.

Maybe.

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[shotgunhacks]

Only maybe? I'll take my chances.

[She's mostly joking. She'll find time for at least some semblance of a break.]

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[calibrating]

Right.

Heading to the med bay now. See you then.

Re: [TEXT] [No specific time period; during Normandy repairs]

[shotgunhacks]

Alright. I'll be here.

[calibrating]

[And sure enough Garrus saunters right into the med-bay]

[Like a baws]

Hey.

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[shotgunhacks]

Hey.

[Tali's working on the innards of a console as he enters. She only looks up briefly at him before returning to her work.]

[Even with one word, it's not all that hard to tell she's been running herself ragged.]

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[calibrating]

[That earns a sigh from Garrus here as he eventually winds up beside her, oh-so-casually leaning against the console she's working on and just watching]

[and watching]

[aaannnd watching]

[until finally he sticks a hand out, deliberately blocking her from plugging in that one wire]

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[shotgunhacks]

[She fails to notice and tries to plug it in anyway, ending up just poking Garrus in the finger.]

[...]

[Wait, that wasn't supposed to happen.]

Garrus, what are you doing?

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[calibrating]

Just testing something out. Don't mind me.

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[shotgunhacks]

[Tali's sane enough at the moment to call Garrus on his BS, luckily.]

What are you getting at? This isn't helping.

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[calibrating]

I'm not getting at anything.

I was testing your reflexes.

By the way, you failed.

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[shotgunhacks]

...

[Dammit Garrus]

I'll just have to turn on the wires next time.

Re: [ACTIONPANTS]

[calibrating]

[SMIRKING MCSMIRK]

Or you can finish up and get some shut-eye.
