              “Not in any way what-so-ever.” She chuckled, making heavy emphasis on each little syllable of the word in attempt to make the fact she was pretty much single-handedly killing herself into a more humorous anecdote. What else was she going to do for shits and giggles now there wasn’t any beer left? "Chances are the war will take me before the booze does, so I’m gonna surf along that tide till I crash." Sparks wavered a little, "Well at least until Huerta puts me on a ban for hanging out there on a drip. Heh- go figure."

               Sparks bounced on her toes with glee, landing and taking off to the door as soon as rubber hit wood. She gave the door a strong nudge, catching it’s sensors with an outstretched foot, one short pivot away from turning to the lieutenant. "You wanna go the safe way… Or the fun way?”

[ltbjking]

                              "Well, that's one way to see it.                                 Sorry but that leaves me won-                                 dering what you gonna do in                                 the case we win this and you..                                 survive."

          Well he couldn't argue that she had a           point - somehow. Some kind of situa-           tions were easier to accept when you're           drunk. Yet that wouldn't change the fact           that she was committing suicide here           in a slow and cruel way. Or at least star-           ting a dangerous addiction.                      Or that was what it seems to be. He                     seriously didn't know her enough for                     these assumptions.

                              "I assume the fun way is potentially                                 getting us into problems we laugh                                 about later? Once we're out of the                                 brig and are allowed to wear wea-                                 pons again?"

[undauntedxspirit]

hm okay, mood swing and not feeling well right now. So no (more replies today. I’m sorry but it’s just nothing I could control or change. 

[ifindyousofascinating-deactivat]

"It is a private matter." Liara’s voice came out more curtly than she wanted it to, but she wasn’t about to explain the situation. Only two people on board knew of her job, and both of them held Spectre status. Shepard had advised her that a need-to-know basis was best.

"Thank you." She took the device but didn’t enter it yet, in case anything he shouldn’t see would have popped up on the screen. "I am sorry. I have been very busy lately, without an abundance of time to take off."

[ltbjking]

                              "Yeah I figured that much. I guess now                                 it's more important than ever to study                                 what the Protheans left behind for us.                                 With the Crucible and so on there must                                  be a ton of things you have to look into."

          He nodded and dug his hands  into the           pocket of his BDU. A movement that had           earned him more than one smack to the           back of his head from his father.Yet he           had ever stopped doing it.

                              "You really spend all of this time alone in                                 here? barely any interactions with anyone?                                 You must be a very introverted person or..                                 sorry to say this: very alone." 

          Once again his mouth was faster than his brain.

[ltbjking]

out; So I have been a bit out of here. Had a lot of things to do in rl, didn't feel too well and all those things. But I will get to all of my drafts throughout this week and get back int he swing, okay? Okay.

[elementedxn]

     "Oh, Lieutenant. You know how much I love to       waste time!” she replied sarcastically. He knew      the stress she was under, but he also knew       Shepard could be an asshole when she got the      urge. 

               "Sorry. I’m just…" Eden pinched the bridge of her nose,                sighing deeply before shaking her head. "it was a long                 night for me.” 

[ltbjking]

                              "That's the point, Shepard,                                 you don't like it at all." 

          But he shut up again when he           realized that this was not some           ass remark but a display how           tired she was. Tired of all of this.           This woman needed a break                     -- desperately.

                              "Okay, I'll look into it, see if                                 I can find something or at l                                 east keep parts of it for future                                 keys and let you know if I do,                                 okay?"

          He looked at her more serious now.

                              "And you should take a nap or                                 something. I might be forgiving,                                 but there are people who might                                 take this more personally if you                                 snark at them like this."

[ltbjking]

out;More replies tomorrow here. I'm sorry to leave you waiting. I'll be on my Shepard for now and attending to her replies and then go to bed early, because still not okay.

Even as he answered her questions, which she realized were fired off rather quickly now, Yara’s interest still gathered bringing more questions. Though, she held them back as she returned his smile with one of her own.

"Three sisters, wow. Must’ve been fun." Before answering BJ’s question, Yara chews and swallows another bite of pasta with a gently hum. "I have four too. All older brothers, making me the baby… … Sorry about that machine gun questions earlier."

[ltbjking]

                    "Fun? Yeah, mostly fr them. The girls had the habit to work together, so I had basically no chance, with Greg being by far to young to assist me.. well so I had to grow some elbows." He chuckled and takes another fork of pasta before she looks at her. "As do you I assume. Four elder brothers? You grew up either pretty rough or they pampered you, most brothers are like that, believe me," he grinned. though he wasn't entirely serious. He's seen enough of the engineer aboard the ship to know that if anything growing up with four elder brothers only had made her stronger.                      "No, don't worry, it's okay. My elder sister is a linguistics talent and before she was able to control it she was speaking at the speed of light, especially when she was excited. She still does today sometimes."

          "Is your family safe?" Hes serious for a moment, he would hate to talk about his siblings when she's still in the dark of her family's well being.

"Hey how about you go fuck yourself buddy?”

[ltbjking]

                    "No fun at all, but how about you  just                     try to drive like a normal human being,                     what will make me stop complaining                     immediately."

[xvatar-blog]

        “Sounds like a good alternative, if you ask me. Sure, it’s far from the same as being an active soldier, but I suppose that’s as good as it gets when you’re held back by something like a stroke,” she replies with a dip of the head. The shift in topic has her shoulders tauten somewhat. “My father isn’t around anymore; he died several years ago. My mother… — Still alive and kicking. Just got transferred to Project Crucible, and was promoted to Rear Admiral. Before the mission on Rannoch, I hadn’t heard from her since the attack on Earth.”

[ltbjking]

                    "Well yet for his taste it's not enough, if I have to be honest. You know, he's always been a person who took actual action, gave orders and led his team. Now he's bound behind a desk and.. tries to hide how much he hates this. But he's a Marine after all and quitting is not his way to deal with things, so until his actual retirement he'll do his damn best in this position." He shrugs and doesn't tell her that Shepard and his father would probably get along pretty well. "He had been lucky though - with the stroke. He has worked hard during his recovery and it payed off"           "I'm sorry to hear about your dad." He's genuine. having been int he situation to lose his dad he could sympathize at least partly. "I'm glad you mom's still out there and I bet the promotion is well deserved. But.. uh that was an awful long time to be in doubts if she's still alive." He knows it's probably been protocol and orders why Admiral Shepard hadn't notified her daughter --or that's what he hopes, because if the admiral hadn't told Shepard on purpose.. that would have been a really hard move.

Yara’s grin turned into a half smile as her teeth bit at her lower lip. “It’s a baby step leading to a bigger one. You know, if you want to.”

The mention of him having sisters had Yara’s head canting in interest. She hadn’t known he had sisters. “You have sisters? How many? Are they older or younger?” Questions fired one after the other, the engineer couldn’t help herself. Probably because she had siblings herself and it was always nice when someone wanted to learn about you through your family.

           "Well, but it's a step after all," he chuckled.

          He didn't miss her interest in his siblings and had to chuckle upon the quickly asked questions. "Yeah, I do. Three sisters, one older, two younger and then there's also my baby brother. The youngest of us." She smiled at her. "And I take from your interest that you have sibling on your own?"

"What are you my driving instructor? Have you even experienced Shepard’s driving skills?”

[ltbjking]

                     "Your driving instructor? Nope, though                       you could certainly need one."

[subject-zero-zero-bullshit]

"Are you hearing yourself right now? I’ve been stealing ships, skycars, ground vehicles since I was twelve."

"Soiknowhowtodrivethankyouveryfuckingmuch."

[ltbjking]

                    "That explains a lot. You never actually learned to drive, because this is.. seriously worse than anything I've ever seen."

[xvatar-blog]

        The grin Niehma easily returns. “Damn, did he? Impressive, I’ll say—— including the part where he decided to carry on after a stroke, although I suppose risky is a word that would fit there as well.” A short pause.  “Good point; I’m glad to hear it, too. I suppose someone’s rotten luck can be the saving factor to someone else.”

[ltbjking]

                    “Well, it’s a long time ago, and he has recovered good enough to take up advisory positions. Though he’s never been back to active duty. My mom wouldn’t have let him anyway. Or the brass would have let her go with him.” He chuckles. “She’s pretty protective.”

                    “Yeah truth, sometimes things that go bad turn out to be the best thing in your life, even the bad decisions.” He nods and cants his head slightly. “What about you? Your family safe? If I may ask, that is.” 

[faulty-biotic-sparks]

“Ryncol, yah! I have been known for beatin’ Shepard once or twice in a drinking game. Heurta absolutley hate me.” The biotic snickered proudly, fanning her eyes to stop the tears from falling as she laughed. “But, that’s the best thing I’ve heard all week, seriously! You gotta write that collector ship shit down somewhere, man, CS would have a field day with it!” She took in an unsteady breath to cool herself before sliding her glass to the bartender and slipping from her perch on the stool. “This place- um- it serves basement level dirt, like you want to know the shit going down, you go there- and Ronnie has like the best drinks this side of the Sol System.” Sparks winked at the SL playully, motioning for him to follow. “Promise, I’ll keep yah safe.”

[ltbjking]

          BJ couldn’t hold back the little laugh. “Have ya, huh? And you’re not worried that you might lose your liver along the way?” Truth be told, he’d had his wild years, especially during his first deployment off planet. Those shore leaves? Sweet memories that were slightly blurred by booze. Too much of it. But he’d never touched that stuff, he’d seen too many people ending up in a hospital, passed out or worse having seizures. For him, it just wasn’t worth it. Yet even with these thought in the back of his mind he grins and was curious what she was about to show her.

                    “You might wanna write it down. I make up shit like that easily. But thanks.” A small smile was given while he listened to her description she was trying to talk him into going to. “Okay,” he nodded as he started to follow her. “Lead the way, you got me curious enough to stretch my boundaries.”

"Tannor Nuara." [gives the alias casually] "What ship are you stationed on, Sere? I have been hoping to get news of the war, but the Citadel is rather isolated from such things."

[ltbjking]

                    “Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Nuara.” He offers his hand for a handshake. “Yeah, the Council’s doing a good job keeping information pretty far away from the people here, I know. My family’s depending on me telling them what’s truly going on up out there as well. But, to answer your question: I’m part of the Normandy’s crew.”
