[ living on the edge! a graceful ignorance of the rules! and having a pretty wicked cool appearance on top of that... eh, maybe dragons aren't as cool (though he would be loathe to say that in front of Corrin). ]
Wow! Really? But that sounds so useful. [ tapping his chin, he comes to a necessary conclusion: ] Are they here, too? You know, like... frozen and stuff?
[ he doesn't remember seeing a Rachni. tbh if Keaton saw one, he'd remember and salivate. but maybe he did??? ]
Though I guess if you say they should stay asleep, it's probably for a good reason. Uh... your name? Just in case.
I... haven't looked for them. I guess... maybe I should.
[ but no new friend, these things are really creepy. and crawly. and when they want to communicate, they can use corpses and manipulate their vocal cords. it's really... not cool.
and in all the excitement, he forgot to give the most basic thing to the guy. ]
Right! The name's Garrus Vakarian. But, just "Garrus" is completely fine.
[ all bugs, when it comes down to it, make the same sound when he stomps them--- either in this form or his massive, shapeshifted one. ]
Garrus. [ oh no why is his name really cool, too? doesn't sound like a human one. this really confirms Garrus as a Not-Dragon Dragon. even if he says he isn't. ]
Oh. I'm --- [ a pause as he wipes the crumbs from his face, brushing them off his pants and letting them slowly gather on the floor ] Keaton. Just Keaton.
[ that gets his tail to perk up, at least? he sounds happy, which in turn of course makes an easily excitable guy also happy. and as soon as it jolts awake, he wags it--- quick and fast, a flurry of fluff behind him. ]
Well, it's nice to meet you too. I... well, it's not that I don't like humans. Most are pretty nice! It just feels better not being alone in that regard, you know?

but deep down, he's a loser. a loser who sounds pretty happy right now. ]
It's nice to meet another non-human, Keaton! There's not too many of us around, and I'm the only one of my species who's awake.
[ that part really wasn't fun. at all. ]

[ ofc he knows, he has to know. loser or not! ]
So clearly, we should try to stick together.

[ you know, being the only turian that's awake. ]
But, I definitely agree. I could also always use more friends.
[ look. he's friendly and all, but he's not that great at making friends. ]
