Quick thing before chapter: Most of this chapter revolves around Garrus/Shepard, as well as family members discussions, ect. (no action till later chapters possibly) IT IS OUT EARLY! JUST FINISHED IT TONIGHT SO I ADDED IT ASAP!

Also I gave Sol a rather British voice as it would suit her character better. Also I have some made up names for food in here so sorry about if it is confusing! :)


"Garrus? Why him?" The elders kept persisting that question over the next couple days, even when Garrus and her were trying to have a private conversation, they would noisy themselves into it.


"Listen Garrus, are you sure you want to go through with this hole 'joining the household' thing? We could always do a small one on a different planet?" As the days went by, Jane started to get really annoyed at the elders, even Garrus' Mother seemed a bit rude.

"It is just typical turian behavior Jane, besides were not like humans, most of us...don't always accept people into it since they are either low citizenship tier or an outsider."

"You still haven't answered my question Garrus. Do you still want to do this?" She gazed into his eyes, all she could see was a bit of depression. "I'd like to, listen if they keep bugging you about the same things, just tell them the same things, it works quite well." Garrus put his hand onto of hers and leaned closer to her, "besides, what happened to the Shepard I use to know? The one who would always kill Reapers first, questions later?" He made a slight smirk, though it was hard to tell even if turians did that.

"Then tell me, where is the turian vigilante: Archangel, the supposedly all round turian bad boy I once knew?" Garrus made a quiet whimper.

"Hmm... personally I thought you liked the new Archangel? He's smooth, still a wicked shot, and definitely more sexier with a hot babe he is engaged to." She blushed a bit, though Garrus was quite obvious he was joking around while keeping her will up.

"Now I have to go talk to the Primarch, waste of damn time but, it has to be done now that I'm his chief advisor and a council Spectre." He groaned every time he had to leave for his duties. "Don't worry Garrus, i'll try not to go looking for you so you can come back here." She winked, looking towards the bed, Garrus just stared for a moment, clueless, till it finally clicked. "Ah yeah, your still going to try and make me blush till it works won't you?"

"Until it works." She walked over to him and kissed him goodbye for the day. "I'll be back in a few days, try not to kill the family." Garrus walked out the door before she could answer, though she already knew he was getting late.


Jane had went downstairs a bit later, she had just finished unpacking all of her stuff into the spare room. She usually found Sol in the living room having a turian drink, but this time she was nowhere in sight. "Sol, you here?" Jane asked quietly as she entered the other rooms.

"Really?" She heard a voice from outside, it sounded rather angry. She opened a window slightly and peaked out.

"Why can't you accept that Garrus has found the person for him mum!?" Sol was arguing with Valorian, her mother. "Because he chose poorly. Honestly if he was a half good turian than he would of found one of our species as a bondmate, not some human who he has only known not even that long."

"Please, your just mad he didn't do what you and dad has been doing for years!" Sol stomped her foot, enraged by her mother's accusations. "Jane is an exceptional person. SHE STOPPED THE REAPERS! How the hell does that not qualify as being good enough?"

Her mother didn't say a word, she let her daughter speak. "Personally if I was him, I'd do one thing. Never abandon her. He already said this is what he wants, and he won't back out. He doesn't need a lecture on this again..."

"Also, he even told me that he wouldn't abandon her, even if she isn't voted into the household. I see this whole 'traditional' attitude completely pointless! TIMES HAVE CHANGED! you cant live in the past anymore." She stoped, knowing that going on would just be a waste of breath.

"I'm...sorry, I got carried away, just please do what you think is right when it comes to this." Her mother just hugged her, they both cried a bit, than walked their separate ways. Jane heard the front door open as Sol stepped through. "Jane, i'm sorry if you heard that. She can be very strict when it comes to tradition."

"Its fine Sol." She walked over and put her hand on Sol's shoulder. "I wanted to ask you something, I almost forgot due to the incident just then." Jane looked curious as they both sat down at the table. "What...tell me what happened when he got shot in the face.."

"To be honest, I still can't believe he survived, though I'm truly greatful he did. We were pinned down by Mercs when it happened. Garrus was shot in the face by a gunship, we did take it out. We also almost lost him." She stopped as Sol started crying. "Go on..."

"Well there was a lot of Mercs, most of them were from BloodPack, Eclipse, and Blue Suns. Luckily for us, we had the best equipment on the SR-2 when I first got it. Garrus could of died if we didn't have that ship." She finished as she put her hand on Sol's, trying to comfort her. "Thank you." Sol got up and headed towards one of the rooms.


"Yeah she is rather oversensitive ha!" Jek was walking along a street into town with Jane, they started to like each other more and more every time they hanged out. "Really she can overdue it. Like what she did yesterday in front of her house, our mom hasn't left her house since then. Don't know what is wrong, don't really care either."

"What is your stance on me joining?" She was rather curious to ask, since she is doing what Garrus said, get to know the family. "Yeah I guess. You definitely got my vote babe, same as Dom's."

"Dom is voting for me to join?" She was rather shocked, seeing as he hasn't spoken (that she knows of) since they got here. "Yeah he is, I even overheard him saying Garrus hooked up with one smoking babe." She blushed a bit as they entered a store. "Pick anything you like, along as it is the 50 credits range."

She walked along the gilded, meld shape isles of food, most of which looked gross. She reached for one that had a label of that said 'Ginuen Bonset'. She looked at the cover, to her it looked like Shrimp, covered in lobster bits, with a side of almost any fish she could think of. "This accually looks good." She explained as Jek walked over to her. "Oh yeah, good choice, that is a good one, though it isn't earth fish."

"What is it then?" She wondered, though to her it didn't matter, she was still getting it. "Meat from a graglo, pretty cunning warriors when it comes to hunting them, Postrin eggs with a dip of spices, and some other stuff that I forget." She looked at it, even what he said of it, it made her want to try it more. "I think i'll get it." He pulled it out of her hands and walked over the the checkout.


Dom was walking over to Jane, he seemed rather nervous. "Um...hi there...I'm Dom and..." She stopped him quickly, "there is nothing to be nervous about Dom, I know your more of a silent type." She got back to putting the garbage into the dumpster. "Its not that, it is just I've never seen a human up close."

"Really you haven't?" Jane just stopped doing what she was doing and started paying more attention to him. "Are all humans as, well, smoking as you?" She started to blush, though she stopped when he started looking around nervously. "Some are, there are also some non 'smokin' ones."

"Good to know?" He seemed to become less nervous as the conversations went on. "I hate to ask one more question but..."

"You will anyway." She moaned a bit but gave a smirk. "Do humans have all the same...parts as turians do?" her mouth fell open a bit then quickly closed. "Why do you say that?" Her right eyebrow went up, now she was getting suspicious. "For science? I don't know, it just bursted out..." The rest of the conversation was said just through facial expressions.
