Prompt: suffocate (Shepard contacts SB!Liara, Santiago is sent as a care package. 1 of 5 ways Shepard and Co. could have gotten Santiago for Massani)
Follows: grin
Joker notices the sway of Shepard's hips, the unconscious seduction. A body loose with the anticipation of destruction she's known for across the galaxy. He toggles through the angles, gets a three-sixty.
EDI notices his preoccupation, interrupts: "Your heartbeat has elevated forty-seven percent, Jeff. This is outside acceptable parameters for all but enemy engagement."
"Could you, just, not do that?"
Massani follows in Shepard's wake, fondling a pistol.
"I have been programed to respond to all abnormalities. It is for your safety."
"By who?"
"Officer Lawson."
A man-sized CryoUnit is offloaded and the bay doors close.
"Shepard signed off-"
"-Yes."
