roeh[The commander's been around the debriefing block more times that she can count so she knows how to play it in front of the camera. Even if that camera was a nightmare of outdated tech that even now threatens to crack her cool facade. Just keep a straight face, Shepard. Make nice to get what you want want, what you need, and maybe no one has to get hurt. For once.]
Commander Shepard. Systems Alliance. Council Spectre. I doubt that will mean much to most of you but I figure it's worth putting out there in case it does.
So on the one hand, I got myself a bit of a promotion. Thanks but no thanks. [A beat.]
On the other, it seems I've been knocked back a couple centuries. Right into the galactic dark ages. How anyone survives on DSL is beyond me but here's my divine wisdom for the day. When spaceflight is capable enough to get you there, save yourself the decades of dicking around and check out Charon. You're welcome.
[With a smirk that is equal parts acerbic and playful -- I'm not happy but nothing personal -- she finally gets to the heart of the matter. A challenge is still a challenge and the rules of that particular game haven't changed as far as she's concerned. There's certainly allies to be found in a predicament like this.]
Now I get that this new found omnipotence doesn't quite extend beyond the boundaries of space time here but I'm all for beating my head against a wall so I'll probably be looking into it anyway. It'd be nice to have some help. In the meantime, anyone want to point me to a good place where I could pick up a gun? Its dangerous to go alone, after all.
