[who do I owe/who wants a thing?]

xducere:

❝ —— quite. how rude of me. maybe i should introduce myself if i’m going to stare. ❞ a pleasant smile was spared. warm, just a simple curl of the corner of claire’s lips. the agent reached out a a hand. palm facing sideways. an offered handshake. ❝ claire redfield. terrasave agent. mostly working to support the refugees, but currently - i’m working under commander shepard. ❞

It would be preferable to you simply staring.

[He inclines his head and accepts her hand, curling his hand around her own to shake it firmly. He's used to people being surprised by his presence, of course. Drell are rare, it seems.]

Oh? As am I. It's a pleasure, I'm sure.

ofparagonheart:

[She leans forwards, arms folding loosely together. Pale eyes watch him from across the table.] “Adjusting. If I’m honest. The whole, ‘waking up under Cerberus flags and oh yeah we brought you back to save humanity’ thing is a little hard to swallow.”

[Thane hums thoughtfully, his hands clasped loosely together as he rests on his elbows.]

I can only imagine, Shepard. But you are doing good work, and it's clear in your actions. How are you coping with it all?

I am aware that drell are rare, but there is no need for staring.

quietparagon:

[A nod of acknowledgement is given and sits gently in the offered seat. Sighing nearly inaudibly at Thane, Shepard shook her head.] I know, I still worry though. It was a lot to go through and heal from.

I have been through much in my life, Shepard. This is not the worst, by far. [He offers her what is meant to be a reassuring smile, and clasps his hands together on the table.] You need not worry.

Shepard. [He pauses for a moment, before he turns to face her and inclines his head slightly.] Are you well?

[Turning his head, Thane raises a brow in the Turian's direction as he approaches.]

"One of the crew who served aboard the Normandy last year, is that right? My apologies. I’ve heard names, but haven’t really seen pictures.” She extends her hand.

"I’m Comm Specialist Traynor. It’s an honor to meet you."

[He takes her hand with a nod of his head, gaze flickering over her fleetingly.]

Yes, I served with Shepard and the others. But it is a pleasure to meet you as well.

ifindyousofascinating:

"I have been busy. I assume the same is true for you."

You'd assume correctly. Now that I'm out of hospital, I can assist Shepard.

[his voice fascinates her. the resonance, like a trill. she listened to it as it was meant to be heard, not through the translator. the omni-tool was helpful at filling in the blanks but at a cost. it stripped away the personality of one’s voice. the unique peaks and valleys.]

‘you were on illuim, as i’ve understood it. i find it ironic that we should cross paths after we’ve committed ourselves to shepard’s mission.

[Thane's hands remain clasped behind his back as he watches her, head cocked ever so slightly. Shepard must know, for it would make little sense for her not to. What is interesting, however, is the fact that the rest of the crew seem entirely unaware.]

I was, yes. It's not unlikely. We were doing very different things at the time, and I was entirely focused on my mission.

#ardatyxkshi #[definitely :3]#[it's definitely something that he would pick up on]

#[looks like I'll have to do replies tomorrow before or after work #I accidentally hibernated and I have work so I can't get online #sorry for keeping you all waiting]#outofthane

#[doesn't look like I can get online tonight #because I have to be up early to go to the zoo with college wooo #and I only managed to get to a few replies on other accounts]

[so I tried my best to actually get to replies today but my piece of shit laptop just kept freezing. So I'm gonna sleep for a few hours and then try again. sorry to those waiting on me, but I don't have work tomorrow so I've got all day to do replies]

❝ You’ll have to pardon the indiscretion, but you are beautiful. Wowza, honestly. Not every day these old eyes spot an amazing creature such as yourself.

Rude. I’m being rude again, aren’t I? No one to tell me I’m not rude. ❞

[Being called beautiful comes as quite the surprise, and his brow ridges lift slightly as he watches the man ramble his way through the compliments. Honestly, it's a little confusing.]

... I would hardly call that rude. Strange, yes.

#[no problem at all :D thanks for following in the first place uwu]#himwiththebowtie #[also I don't have any gif icons until I make some tomorrow :D]
