Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall… Humpty Dumpty had a great fall… all the king's horses and all the king's men…couldn't put Humpty Dumpty together again…
Why am I remembering this?
It's been ages since I recited this… way back when I was a child. I didn't like it. I was more of a "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" girl, mainly because I really wondered what they are.
I loved the idea of traveling to space since I was a little girl. I wanted to discover the vastness of space. To study them and explore them to my last breath.
And to think I found the love of my life out there in the galaxy. I guess there is someone out there for everyone… even myself.
What would've happened if I hadn't discovered Garrus? I keep thinking back to that time in the Citadel… when we first met. He reminded me of myself, when I first started. So eager to catch the bad guys. So determined to set things right. But soon enough, you realize that there are just some things that you can't do to satisfy your desire for righteousness. There are many things to think of. Your safety. The safety of your crew. The safety of the people around you.
Garrus has changed… a lot. Maybe because of my influence. Or maybe because of his time in Omega, I don't know. But I knew I felt different around him when I saw him in Omega. When he removed his mask, and I found out it was him, it took all the guts I had not to run to him and huge him until his plates cracked. And when he got shot by that rocket, I saw red. I wanted to kill all the fuckers that did that to him… and I grew afraid that I had lost him.
The day I saw him alive through the doors with that cybernetic bandage on his face was biggest sigh of relief I ever had.
No… I don't want to think about what would've happened if I didn't meet Garrus. I met him, and he met me, and we fought together, got shot together, and laughed together. We even learned to love together.
And that meant so much more to me that anything else…
Don't worry, G… I'm going to come back to you. I swear it.
