[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.

I wouldn't be adverse to knowing that myself.

Glad it's not just me. It's kind of freaking me out you know?

Finally, you get it kid.

You're telling me that no one else has questioned if there's a real pilot or not?

What the hell kind of place is this?

Everyone seems to be content with doing pretty much nothing. (which isn't true, it's just not up to Han's weird standards of getting the hell out of here.)

You've not been here long, have you?

You really think that none of us have asked that question before, or are you just generalising our collective ignorance to make yourself feel better?

Oh gee, you really hit the nail on the head. Guess I'm just being an ass in assuming that you're all just going along with whatever you're being made to do instead of trying to get the hell off this weird ass ship that liquefies you if you don't go back into your happy tube when it's time.

My bad.

Wow.

Yeah.

Totally want to stay here.

They're doing a great job on selling the place.

I pretty much said the same thing. I made it my responsibility then to get my people home. It still is.

The thing you need to understand is that it isn't that damn easy.

Yeah I can tell. I'd just love to live here forever.

Nothing ever is. I never said it would be.

But nothing was ever accomplished, easy or not, without working your ass off.

Plus side, free booze?

Well at least this place as one thing going for it.

... Does it really, though?

Let me stop you right there. What makes you think you know how hard I work? You don't know me. You don't know these other people, you've not seen how hard they work, how much we've had to do just to stay alive.

You've been here a week, right?

Bit of a highly specific concern there, laddie.

Have you tried visiting the cockpit?

Yeah. I know. I'd be up for looking around, though. You know me, I get bored the longer I sit tight.

[She's sitting in her quarters, fiddling around with nothing and quietly going stir crazy. Everything behind her is neat as a pin, but she's on her feet any way, restlessly adjusting the bedspread.]

Anything is better than staring at the same four walls. I don't remember getting a brief on a pilot.

...You're going stir crazy, aren't you, Commander?

[Yeah, he knows you all too well, Shepard.]

Hey, look, I'm trying to make myself feel better about this. I figure if I get drunk enough, anything will seem good.

And you don't know me. So stop assuming I'm an idiot that doesn't know anything. Because trust me, hard worker, I've probably been in space more than you have in your entire life and I know what lurks in the dark fucking corners of the galaxy.

I'm use to being the one flying ships, not hanging out on board them. I know how important it is to have someone good in the control seat.

I'm still trying to figure out the layout of this place, but that's my goal. Figure if I knock on the door or whatever's up there, maybe they'll answer.

Pretty much. You get used to it, mission after mission, fight after fight. It just feels wrong to have nothing to do.
