[Joker...really isn't sure what to make of any of this. He's glad there are familiar faces on board the ship but that really doesn't help with the fact that it's not his ship and he has no idea who's flying this thing.
Being in the pilot's seat offers that safety and comfort that most wouldn't understand. Plus, there's no EDI around to talk to which is a bit devastating.
But at least Shepard's alive...right?
When the feed clicks on Joker's leaning against the wall, taking a break from walking but it's not like he's going to admit that. He's been wandering and trying to get a look at things where he can, really not liking being so in the dark about any vessel that he's on.]
So how the hell does one find out who the pilot is and meet them? You know, just for my own peace of mind.
[He straightens up some, hiding a wince as he shifts his weight from one leg to the other and back again.]
I mean, maybe everyone else here--which hi all you people that I don't know and have no idea where you came from!--
[The sarcasm is strong with this one.]
--is cool with not knowing but I'd like some confirmation that it's not so crazy alien bug reaper thing driving us around preparing to 'harvest' us or something.
Just saying.

Which also means that I have the answer to your question. To all of them, actually.

Oh, wait, wait! Let me guess!
[Joker clears his throat then starts to talk again, imitating the man he's talking to.]
But I'm not going to tell you because you hurt my feelings and I don't want to be nice to you now. Pity me, pity me, pity me. I've been through more.
[The pilot's eyes narrow and he sneers, voice back to normal.]
Go cry me a fucking river because I'm pretty goddamn sure you have no idea what it means to find the shit that lurks in the dark, buddy.

I'm not going to keep the answers from you because that's not the kind of man I am. I don't get off on petty bullshit. The only person throwing a pity party here is you.
Here's how it is. You only get access to the cockpit with clearance and a personal invite from our captain. There's a handful of people on board who got that invitation, and they reported back no concerns regarding the autopilot. Let me make it clear: Even if there were concerns, you wouldn't have clearance to know about it.
This is a ship. You say you know all about space, I'm guessing you understand command structure too. Right now, you're at the bottom of it. You understand that, right? Now here's the real important part. If you go round making trouble, security are gonna put you in time out. That's what they're here for. To protect us, to protect the ship, and to keep insurrectionists from putting all of us at risk.
Consider yourself warned.
