It took a few days of organizing, but clean-up of the Zeta District starts today! With four groups of volunteers working at fixing some of the damage wrought by the flames of the last week, it's a definite message being sent out to everyone, even Aria, that the Outsiders look out for their own.

Well hopefully once I get this thing rewired the street lights will work better and they'll keep back a little more.

[She's not going to poke him for what he's watching, it's better to let snipers do their thing she's found.]

Just scouts so far then. Good. Hopefully no one blows up the power boxes again.

[motivationalspeaker]

Blood Pack scouts. If there have been any Eclipse or Blue Suns, they're keeping well hidden.

[Honestly who would ever send vorcha out as scouts they're terrible at it]

[spinelessdecoder]

Blood pack aren't the smartest gang out there. I'd check high places for Eclipse mercs.

[She'll go back to trying to repair this stupid electric box and get zapped.]

Ow, dammit. Can't believe I said yes to doing this.

[motivationalspeaker]

[Silly goose he's been paying extra close attention to all the high spots. He ain't no rookie yo. But no big. he glances over after she zaps herself]]

We need all the help we can get out here. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Are you okay, or do you need any medi-gel?

[spinelessdecoder]

I'm fine, I'm built a little more sturdy than most people.

[She's not a sniper, she just pokes around in electric boxes with metal tools. She's a smart cookie.]

I'm just sick of vorcha scurrying around the place, bit of light will fix that nicely.

[motivationalspeaker]

[just don't get zapped again roomie 8((((]

Hopefully, though I'd rather deal with them than a load of krogan.

[spinelessdecoder]

[Just ship her off to Mordin if she does something exceedingly stupid.]

Agreed. At least most vorcha aren't smart enough to realize when they're in danger of being shot. krogan just ignore it and get mad, which is the last thing anyone needs.

[motivationalspeaker]

[Good idea LOOK MORDIN I'M GETTING YOU PATIENTS 8U]

The whole redundant organ system thing doesn't help any. Unless you get them right between the eyes, then it's not a problem. Doesn't help if they get too close, though.

[spinelessdecoder]

[She's cool with NOT going to the hospital too.]

I'd always double tap with a krogan, even if you get them between the eyes you never know I've seen them get up after getting shot clean through their head before.

[motivationalspeaker]

At this distance it wouldn't be too difficult to put a few rounds into them. Unless you're up against a battle master, anyway. That biotic charge is brutal.

[spinelessdecoder]

Wouldn't know about any krogan biotic battle masters but I'm not going to piss one off enough to find out.

And I think we should have power.

[She'll plug something in with a clunk as all of the street lights flick on for the first time in eons, lighting up the dingy district and turning on a lot of old lights that likely haven't been used in forever.]

Look at that. Now everyone should have power.

[motivationalspeaker]

Excellent job! At this rate we'll have this district fully operational in a matter of days.

[spinelessdecoder]

Let's hope, I'm going to lock this box with a code so no one can mess up the wires again.

[She'll do that and somehow get down from where she was perched.]

On to the next one. Those vorcha still scuttling around?

[motivationalspeaker]

[One sec bud, Kirrahe is checking his scope]

Don't see them. If I had to guess, I'd say they were reporting to their superiors about our progress. I do see a couple batarians, but they aren't wearing merc armor. Could be civilians.

[spinelessdecoder]

If they're not wearing armour I'd leave them be, they're probably in just as much of a shitty situation as the rest of us are here. Maybe even a worse one.

[She'll just hop down and start heading for the next electric box that hasn't been looked at in ages.]

I wonder if anyone in the galaxy actually likes Batarians?

[motivationalspeaker]

[still just watching them like a creepy stalker salarian for a second]

They don't build themselves up to be the most pleasant species in the galaxy. Personally, I don't really have any issues with them. There are bigger things to worry about.

[spinelessdecoder]

Hey I'm not going to shoot them on sight, I'm just saying they're not making themselves any friends in the galaxy.

[Keep being creepy there frog-man.]

I hope you don't use that scope for evil, Kirrahe.

[motivationalspeaker]

[HE WILL THANKS, CREEPIN ON ALL THE ALIENS]

Never have before, and I don't intend to start now.

[spinelessdecoder]

[Don't use it for evil creepy-creeper.]

Good thing, otherwise I'd be worried.
