Visiting Post for Commander Colene Shepard

The Milliways infirmary is a lot busier than usual, mostly because of the recent wave of nightmare-injuries. The aforesaid situation has turned one of the regularly attending doctors into a patient, so Zhaan has been spending a lot of extra time here.

Most of the patients are recovering just fine on their own, but Zhaan is watching the sleeping ones closely in case they have nightmare episodes and need to be woken up for their own safety. She also has a certain patient in with broken fingers and a concussion.

"Tuh." He offered quite unhelpfully. A bar at the end of the universe. Imagine what everyone back in normal-ville would have thought of that idea.

"Relax, Garrus. Enjoy the break while you have it. God knows we all need one."

"Agreed, but this isn't what I had in mind." The turian said, leaning to the side.

"...Still, I am quite curious about the whole place. Aside from being injured in your dreams, it seems relatively peaceful."

"Yeah. It's surprising, considering that they've got folks from so many different times and places in here." They both have a good sense of perspective on that, seeing as the melting pot of the galactic civilization they come from has more than a few belligerent lumps in it. "If something does happen, they have their own security and holding cells. For the most part they don't seem to need them all that much."

"So I can assume that there's no fighting, or any sort of sordid affairs in the bar?" He asked. Life on the citadel bore many a sight, and some of them he could have gone without seeing.

"Heh. No, not for long, anyway. People can apparently duel on the grounds or have alone time in the room upstairs, but other than that, violence, nudity and sex are against the rules. So is carrying a major grudge, or at least acting on it."

"I see." He wasn't Tali's biggest fan, but there was no possibility of them coming to a violent conflict. After a while, the turian shrugged, still tactfully leaving the commander's dream unexplored. There would be other moments.

"I guess my next course of action is to see if I can leave this place or not..."

"If you can still see the Door, you're in the clear," Shepard says. Although if Garrus is planning to stay with her anyway, the presence or absence of the Door won't really matter one way or the other.

"Mmhm. I'm staying here, either way, however." He straightened for a bit, before finally starting to motion like he was about to leave.

"Commander. If there's anything you need, don't hesitate to call on me or Tali. We're here for you."

"I know you are," she says quietly. "But it's good to hear you say so, all the same."

"I'll be in the bar." He tilted his head in the turian equivalent of a smile, before curtly turning and walking toward the exit.
