    Summary

    Pop Pop tells her that Grog’s had a hard life and a bad scare, that Pike’s got to do her best to be brave for both of them. He’s pretty sure he wasn’t supposed to hear it, but it... it makes him feel something strange, that the old fella’s looking out for him.
    It’s not, uh, not a bad feeling.

    Summary

    “When I see her again, I must impress her,” the sphinx rumbles. “She will not be easily won.”

    Summary

    The Warden watches him with eyes made pale by moonlight. He can feel her gaze roam over him, considering. There’s the slightest pull in her face where she’s chewing the inside of her cheek. A brown, flaking smear of blood smudges her hairline, left from one of the assassins she killed today.
    At last, she says, “You do not offend me.”
    And that is that.

    “What a world this is,” Erika sniffs, pitching her voice up in an eerie imitation of the Minister of Trade’s wife, “A princess marrying a scholar and a king marrying a songstress. What’s next, a barking cat?”

    “Wonderfully well, I’ll tell him you asked.”

    Summary

    “I can see from the stage, and I know that just-got-rejected drinking posture better than most. Sorry. But that’s not what I mean. How,” eugh, time to talk about feelings, keep it together Shorthalt, “how did you—I mean, how can you be sure it’s not just butterflies? A pretty rogue, a pretty druid, a night of passion in the midst of turmoil—it’s easy to see. But, come on, love?”

    Summary

    Wrex shrugs, grunts as he sits down. The couch on the observation deck gives an ominous creak; Shepard figures, fuck it, and sits down beside him. If it can hold a krogan, one more human won’t break it no matter how dense her skin and bone-weave might be.
