"I heard about your argument with our daughter." Bastionus was looking stern at his wife, very displeased.
"God dammit Bast! What were you thinking allowing Him the privilege of bringing her here!?" She completely ignored the fact about the argument that happened not long ago. "I was thinking that Garrus deserved a chance, he deserves it from what he has been through." She still was staring him down, "yeah, but I thought it would be a TURIAN that he would bring home, not some human!"
"Look, I know what I'm doing! Besides it is to late to kick her out of our daughter's house. The bonding is already planned for tomorrow, there's nothing you can do about it. If you want to vote against her joining, then do so, I'm done trying to convince you. This is our undisciplined child's future we are talking about!"
"If only he brought back a Turian..."
"Dammit Val! I just want what is best for our son! He wants this, we should just let it happen, we aren't in a galaxy that existed just after the First Contact War!" All she did was cross his arms and turn her head away from him. "Do it then Bast! Go let the outsider join our family!"
"This is a great opportunity for us Val, one of the first humans ever to join a household family. That will strength our ties with earth, as well as put aside our pasts! Plus this is Shepard we are talking about, she deserves to-"
"Why are you two yelling at each other again?" Garrus walked down the steps as he turned to face his parents, "Is this about Jane?" They didn't speak, but his mother just walked away from the both of them. "Its complicated son."
"I know it is, but still why try to hide it from me? You guys haven't fought like this since before I joined C-sec." He titled his head down as his father walked over to him and just wrapped himself around Garrus. "I'm trying, you know I am. She can be so stubborn when it comes to these."
"Still it doesn't mean you should continue this.." He sighed as he walked off, climbed the stairs, and went into his temporarily cabin for the wedding.
Garrus was walking wish Jane through the back forests, far away from the bickering of Turians. "You see? This is where it will happen. Nice sunset, lights to help us see, and a few human customs I looked up."
"This is such a beautiful place Garrus, I cant imagine what would of happened if we lost." Garrus leaned closer to her and grabbed ahold of her hands. "Don't worry about the Reapers, they are finished now. Lets just focus on us."
"Agreed. I love you Garrus." She titled her head up and began to kiss him on the mandibles and face. "I...love you too Jane"
"You must be Garrus' grandmother, I'm Jane, nice to meet you." She said as she shook the female turian's hand.
"I heard about your stories Commander, I must say I'm impressed that you did all those things. You remind me of a turian I once know, Blasis I think his name was, oh it doesn't matter, he was a real goof anyway. No job, no home, he couldn't even pay for anything yet he still was married and had 3 kids." Jane started to worry that she was referring to Garrus, seeing as he was on a path of no return. "You two would make such a good pair. Though I don't like that you may join our household."
"And why is that? I know all about the citizenship tiers, and that you have to preform duties regularly. Plus if someone gives you something for no reason, you must repay them back someway."
"Very good, your smarter than you look. For a moment I thought you may of been a deadbeat who somehow saved the galaxy." She groaned under her teeth as the elder turian kept making rude remarks. "I'm capable of doing this, plus Garrus will be there to help me when I need it."
"Yeah of course he will be, but if you dare break his heart, I swear to the spirits I will hire mercs to bring your head and mount it on my wall.
Have a nice day." The elder turian stood up and walked away, Jane couldn't believe how bad that turian treated her, though it seemed she treated everyone that way.
"Ty!" Jane ran over to him as he returned from his school. "Oh hey Jane! Just got back from C-sec training. So boring If you ask me hahaha" They both chuckled, even though they don't seem like great friends, they know how to have a 'good time' when it comes to chatting.
"Trust me, you wouldn't want to be there when that Thresher Maw came smashing that Reaper into a pepble." They laughed again, still enjoying themselves on such a quiet night. "Oh no you trust me! I would have taken down 5 Reapers if I had the chance!"
"Uh-huh." They both continued to laugh.
"So how have you been Jane?"
"Fine, unless you call 'getting threaten by the older turians' fine, i'm good."
"Ah I know how that feels, my mum never seemed to like anyone mating with other species. My dad really could care less. Garrus is with you so you know his side of the story. Sol is same as my dad, and the older ones have no idea anyway."
"You know, I'm glad that not all of Garrus' family are complete a-holes." They laughed again as they opened up some turian soda and toasted each other. "20 credits says I can drink more than you."
"100 credits and you got a deal."
"Fine, but your going down babe!"
"To my husband and his family!" Yelled Jane as they started a jugging contest to see who can drink more.
