Wound up cutting the call short.

[ACTION]

[pluggedintheoverlord]

So you're telling me that you risked my sister's safety on a gamble that didn't even pay off.

[WOW. GREAT JOB.]

You really are just a fucking credit to the team, aren't you?

[ACTION]

[calibrating]

[Oh ouch]

...If we were in any condition where I could resign or leave, I would. I screwed up. In more than a couple of ways.

I'm sorry. I don't know what else I can say.

[ACTION]

[pluggedintheoverlord]

[Okay, that might've been a little harsh, even for him.]

Yeah, you fucked up, Garrus. But you're an idiot if you think I'd let you just walk out, even if you could.

[He ran a hand through his hair, pushing his cap back slightly. Dammit, he was starting to feel bad about being such an ass.] So quit being such a drama queen, all right? I'm not gonna give you the cold shoulder or something because you messed up.

[ACTION]

[calibrating]

Yeah. Sorry again.

[The fact of the matter is between this and EVERYTHING having to do with Stark, Garrus probably fucked up the crew's relationship with one of their most influential and useful allies]

[FEELS BAD MAN]

[ACTION]

[pluggedintheoverlord]

It's...

[Well, saying 'it's okay' would be a lie, and a bad one at that.]

We'll work with it. And we'll work out something with Stark, too. Hell, I'm the one who got him all up in arms, so I'll figure out how to smooth things over.

[ACTION]

[calibrating]

I didn't exactly help with the whole 'getting him up in arms' thing, even before you got into your own tiff with him.

Re: [ACTION]

[pluggedintheoverlord]

'Tiff'? Yeah, that's a cute way to put it. Except that we were arguing about improvised nuclear warheads, not having a domestic, which is, y'know. Less cute.

Re: [ACTION]

[calibrating]

What the hell are you talking about? Nukes are adorable.

Re: [ACTION]

[pluggedintheoverlord]

Puppies and little kids are cute. Nukes are awesome. The difference is that whole explosion thing.

Re: [ACTION]

[calibrating]

We've definitely got different views on what's cute.

So, uh... no hard feelings?

[ACTION]

[pluggedintheoverlord]

Not gonna say I'm not pissed at you. That was a pretty damn stupid thing you pulled, and I don't like it when you're stupid because you don't do it halfway. But I'm gonna bank on Stark being a decent enough guy to leave Gunny out of whatever beef he's got with me.

So really, there's probably no harm done, but you're still a dumbass.

[ACTION]

[calibrating]

I'm not gonna argue that.

Just, uh, as long as you know I'm sorry.

[ACTION]

[pluggedintheoverlord]

Okay, good. Glad to see we're all on the same page here.

[ACTION]

[calibrating]

Yeah.

We just need a better book.
