[Garrus doesn't trust most of the CDC officers. But Armada he has some faith in, and it's not just because there's no gain in misleading your squad because it'll backfire.]
Take it you didn't follow up by asking?
[The omission's clear enough, really. There's also something to be thankful for about a clear omission instead of the loops Neheda can make out of her words.]
Either way, whether you did or didn't, I've got some faith in him.
[He knows he wants to have faith in someone here, and that's influencing this in part too, but he doesn't think this is a poor choice.]
Got more in you and a couple of others. But I like what I've seen from him.
We will. There are already a few here. But I'd really like more of them to stay here.
[How many from his crew had come and gone? Liara, Javik, Mordin, Thane, Tali once though she's back, and the many others who had never joined the crew but he'd seen.]

[ Because what good would it do, when he can't help Clary? When he can't get to her. Sending a message at all was more than he'd hoped for. ]
We can find people to trust, Garrus. Even here.

I know.
[ He agrees, even if it's selfish. ]
I'm sorry about your friends.
no subject
Sorry about yours, too.
[The hand goes down and he lifts his glass instead.]
To friends, the ones we've lost, and the ones we've still got.
no subject
To friends.
[ A glance at Garrus, then. ] Thanks for this.
no subject
I'll wake you up at five any day.
[Then he's chuckling and shaking his head.]
Thank you back, d'Artagnan. Your name's still complicated to say, but I'm glad to know you. Should I let you get some more sleep again now?
no subject
Alina will probably wonder where I am. I should get back.
[ He stands, brushing himself off. His significantly lighter bottle dangles from his fingertips, and he puts his other hand on Garrus' shoulder. ]
I'm glad I know you, too. I'll see you later, Garrus, all right?
no subject
[His mandibles are now as wide as they can go as he stands as well and gives d'Artagnan a nod.]
Later, d'Artagnan.
