have you ever had a random thought come to your head when you least expect it and you just don’t know what the answer to it would be? but you just can’t stop thinking about it? and you’ve gotta say it to somebody?

stuff like…

i don't know. i've never met a turian besides you to know if there's anything different about you.

[thearchangel]

I... just thought it was obvious.

Basically, it got hit with an explosive. From a gunship - a ah, flying warship.

[reindered]

you what?! but you were okay, right?!

[thearchangel]

[There is a long, long pause.]

I'm alive. Does that count?

[reindered]

i guess....

but you need to be more careful!!

[thearchangel]

Hey, it's not the first time someone's tried to kill me.

I'll be fine.

[Has his self preservation gone out the window lately? Yes. Yes it has. But we don't need to talk about that.]

[reindered]

i mean, i can't pretend it doesn't happen to us back home pretty regularly with the marines. and sometimes the other pirates. but still!! you should be more careful! i don't want to have to learn how to treat a turian on the spot because you were reckless, okay?!

[Look after yourself, Garrus!! What would Shep say if they came back to this, huh?]

[thearchangel]

[See this is why he didn't tell anyone when he got beat to hell after the Gala...]

You know you'll probably have to at some point, right? If we have to take the Heroine into a combat zone, I can't promise something's not going to happen.

[reindered]

i know. but it's still better if i can try and learn some before you need me to treat you for anything serious. i've never treated a turian before. i wouldn't want to mess something up because i'm not so familiar with your species.

[thearchangel]

You'll be fine.

Just don't panic about the blue blood and you'll be better than the last medic I saw here.

[reindered]

your blood is blue? is there anything else i should know?

[thearchangel]

Yeah, it is. All turian blood is blue.

Uh. I can't really think of anything.

[reindered]

nothing that different in regards to your organs or anything? okay. that's good to know.

[thearchangel]

Probably not?

I don't know, I'm not a doctor.

[reindered]

that doesn't really help me. maybe i should give you an anatomy book or something just to make sure, and you can tell me if there's anything that different?

[thearchangel]

I mean... there's all the obvious bits.

Scales and, that kind of thing.

[reindered]

i mean things like the inside. your organs and that sort of thing. they're not in different places or some that are specific to turians?

[thearchangel]

There's probably... something.

But can't people just use magic to fix injuries here?

[reindered]

and what if nobody around to immediately help knows that sort of magic? it's still important to know basic first aid!

[thearchangel]

Basic first aid is the same. You just have to do CPR a little differently.

[reindered]

that's the sort of thing i need to know. how would it be different to do cpr for you?

[thearchangel]

You'd... have to use a lot more force for compressions, that's for sure.

And figure out a way to breathe for the person. Our mouths don't seal up like most species. We've got tech that can do it, back in our world, but... not here.

[reindered]

more force for compressions. okay.

what was needed for the tech? maybe we can check if darin or someone else can make something for you? just in case.

[thearchangel]

I ... appreciate the effort, but I'm not sure I want a smith making medical equipment.

It has to be sterile, too.

[reindered]

what if i worked with him on it?
