You have reached the voice mail box of Tony Stark. Leave a message with JARVIS and someone will get back to you. Make it a nice one, and it'll probably be me.

Tony, when you get this, call me back ASAP.

Shepard's working the pirates groundside and needs all the help he can get.

[Good thing JARVIS is tracking everything for him.]

You mean alone? Whose idea was that?

Re: video;

[calibrating]

His.

If we weren't facing an infinite supply of enemies, I'd say he could do it, too. But he needs help.

Also, hi.

Re: video;

[hotredhero]

Well, that's a stupid plan. Don't you guys have back up?

They've been pretty much swarming in waves ever since they hit. Going alone is a bad idea.

[There's an extended pause here.]

Hi.

Re: video;

[calibrating]

You don't give Shepard enough credit. Also, in case you haven't noticed, but we're a little short staffed here.

[Ugh ugh talking to Tony right now is raising his blood pressure. BUT but they both know the reason why, and it's a subject that needs to be broached]

[The timing could be way better, but Garrus understands the role interpersonal relations can have when it comes to teamwork, and with a mission as important as this... well...]

[Garrus sighs, keeping his voice in check with a sincere sobriety]

Look, uh, all that aside, I owe you an apology.

Re: video;

[hotredhero]

Hey, I'm not the one asking for help. I just figured you would have all done the math before going in.

[Yeah, he's not even sorry. Tony is actually waiting for Garrus to cut out, but the Turian surprises him. Well, damn.

And he doesn't actually want anyone to get hurt.]

What are his coordinates?

Re: video;

[calibrating]

He's constantly moving, so I'll just send you his tracking data. I trust you're good enough to keep it encrypted.

And since you're not really addressing that last part, I'll just go right out and say it: I'm sorry for how I acted a couple weeks back. I wasn't in the best mindset, but I should've kept myself in check. I know you were just trying to help.

[Somewhat out of place comes a bang from his rifle as he takes out a Bruiser]

Re: video;

[hotredhero]

Right. Well, I'll see what I can do.

[Nope. Not addressing it at all. Tony actually gives the feed a halfway irritated look, actually, because he doesn't understand why Garrus is insisting on bring that back up.]

Lesson learned. I'll need a few minutes to get there. Make sure he doesn't get cornered before then.

[He's more focused on his HUD screens than anything. Coordinating Garrus's new information into what he's gathered already. Hot spots, defense patterns, allies' locations, and so on all thanks to the network of data he's accumulated. Now with additional points for him and Shepard!]

Re: video;

[calibrating]

[SIGH]

Roger that.

We'll talk later.

[And something with the way he says that hints that it's not a standard parting statement]

[He's going to make sure they talk]
