Mass Effect 3
A couple of e-mails between Garrus and Shepard at the start of ME3: basically some spoilers for ME2 and the back story for ME3.
(I'm so addicted I'm writing about this game now. *sob*)
From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
This is bullshit.

To: [Vakarian, G]
Well, that's the military red tape for you. Could be worse.

From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
You've been yanked off the Normandy, had your title stripped and are pretty much under "house arrest" on Earth.
How the hell could it be worse?
~
From: [Shepard, J]
To: [Vakarian, G]
Know anyone else who came back from the dead only to almost die again but then live just for the hell of it?
Besides, I might be grounded but the majority of you aren't. I'll have eyes and ears out there thanks to you.
(You okay?)
~
From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
That's cheating.
(Yeah, mostly. Think I've got about another two days of interrogating before either the Turian leaders pitch a fit and get me out of here.)
~
From: [Shepard, J]
To: [Vakarian, G]
Maybe, still going to use it to my advantage, though.
Shit, they still grilling you?
~
From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
Funny how they aren't buying that whole "Cerberus hated aliens, I'm an alien, ergo, I'm not Cerberus" thing.
~
From: [Shepard, J]
To: [Vakarian, G]
Did you just use the word "ergo"?
~
From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
Spending too much time with politicians and lawyers. Send help. Preferably in the form of a very big gun.
PS: You think if I mentioned our, erm, "interaction" and wiggle my eyebrows, they might let me (you) go? Prove that Cerberus agents wouldn't engage in that kind of activity with aliens?
~
From: [Shepard, J]
To: [Vakarian, G]
Vakarian, you don't have eyebrows.
~
From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
I'll get Joker to do the eyebrow wiggling thing, then.
(You have a problem with me not having eyebrows but not about telling them? Your priorities are weird, Shepard.)
~
From: [Shepard, J]
To: [Vakarian, G]
God, no, that's a dangerous and horrible path you'd walk with Joker. He'd wiggle his eyebrows at you every time he saw you.
(Not like I'm ashamed of that night, Vakarian, or of you.)
~
From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
Oh. Huh.
Shit, got to go, slimy looking lawyer knocking on my door.
~
From: [Shepard, J]
To: [Vakarian, G]
Good luck, Garrus.

From: [Vakarian, G]
To: [Shepard, J]
You, too, Shepard.
