You will not be granted the luxury of leaving the CDC, so long as you defend him here you won't lose him again. Is that not better than the alternative?

Shepard I met him.

Him who?

Your
human lifemate.
[What was the word Alina had used for it...]
Your boyfriend.

???????????

Kaidan. He is here looking for you.
no subject
He found me.

He's not my boyfriend
no subject
Wait did he say that
no subject
He did with his face.
Shepard I thought we were beyond secrets. You know I will tell no one of it.
no subject
You're sure his face wasn't saying Oh great, it's that person I can't stand?
no subject
...if that was his expression in regards to someone he dislikes I think his head might actually explode in the opposite scenario.
Do you not care for him?
no subject
He's dead.

We've served together. That's all.

Crichton said something about alternate realities to me once. This might have something to do with that.
no subject
Doesn't matter.
no subject
Yes it does.
[Somewhere there's a reality where she doesn't get people killed. It's almost like a nice thought. Let her have it.]
no subject
No, Shepard, it does not: he still feels for you. And you do not.
You should tell him sooner rather than later.
no subject
It's not that simple.
He can feel whatever he wants.
no subject
And you can do as you like.
But if you miss this opportunity, you may live to regret it.
