There's not much we can do about it now, is there?
[ and the fact of the matter was, it really wasn't that simple. you could take Mordin's route and say that the genophage was necessary, and the Krogan needed to change their ways. or, you could say that no one had the right to do something like that to anyone. but the fact of the matter was, it wasn't up to him and while a few years ago he knows exactly what he'd have done.
now he wasn't so sure. look. he really hates grey morality. it's never any fun. and speaking of grey morality... ]
They haven't given any reason for us not to trust them, have they? What other reason do you think they'd have just keeping us here?
[ regardless, as much as he really hates to admit it, this place was probably safer for his people than the Reaper War was... ]
I don't plan to travel to your world so there's certainly nothing I can do. [ After all, who knew what might happen if humans started breeding too quickly, right? Duo's still pretty unimpressed with this whole genophage idea, if he's honest, but it is what it is. It's not as though he's going to go blazing in to his world with his gundam and put an end to it, right? ]
Not sure. Could be I'm just paranoid from too long in my own war, but I just don't feel like I want to trust them so quickly. Not at least without keeping them at arms length for a while.
Last time I just went ahead with someone else's plan it bit me in the ass anyways. [ Particularly when it came to the Gundams and how operation meteor had gone down. Left a sour taste in his mouth and all. ]
[ well hey, you guys haven't blown up your planet in nuclear war, and aren't slamming moons into other people's colonies, so you guys are 110% Good. ]
They seem pretty normal to me so far.
[ but, he's not big on authority figures, so that might be subject to change. ]
Someone told me once that you have to trust your instincts. Not just go along with the plan. But then again, I've never been very good at following bad orders.
That probably won't last long.. [ Duo laughs, both at his own joke and the truth behind it. He's not necessarily the most normal human kid in the world, especially after the war and all of that lot. He supposes Garrus might lear that over time, but he's not going to press about it. After all, that'd involve some story telling and that might be depressing for them both. ]
I know a guy who told me the same. More like 'following your emotions is not a bad thing' but he was also the most emotionally stunted asshole I'd ever met, so..

As you can imagine it didn't really stick.
