C-Sec
She asked him outright one day. Just a single question that started an entire conversation.
"Why did you want to be a C-Sec officer in the first place?" Shepard asked him.
It was a good question no doubt. There had been several reasons why. Garrus' father was one of the best C-Sec officers. He grew up watching the vids of his dad after a big arrest. In Garrus' mind, he wanted to make his dad proud. So he followed in his foot-steps and joined C-Sec after his military training.
"So how is your dad reacting to your resignation?" Shepard asked him.
Garrus shook his head "Not well. He doesn't like the fact that I'm working with a Spectre. As you know he blocked my Spectre candidacy when I was younger".
"I know. I'm sorry. You would've been great" Shepard said.
Garrus nodded in appreciation. The way Shepard said those words; they almost had an endearing tone to it. Like she...cared about him. Or maybe she felt sorry for him because his father was a real pain in the ass...and still is.
"I still have years left Commander. Maybe one day I'll become a Spectre. And I won't give a damn what my father thinks" Garrus said.
"There's always hope. Never forget that" Shepard said.
"Don't worry Commander, I won't" Garrus said.
