If luck is what I needed, then it's no wonder I haven't gotten anywhere.
[Harsh, angry, bitter. He's a raw wire of emotion right now: guilty, outraged, frustrated, depressed, elated. It's hard to tell which parts are his and which aren't. Whatever restraint and control he normally tries to maintain, the Black Box tore through it like tissue paper. His hair is messy from where he keeps dragging his hands through it.]
Sorry. I didn't— I'm not—[He swallows, refocusing. Talking is helping, a little, the sound of his own voice clearer over the noise in his head.] Are you all right?
[He's never seen that sort of look on November's face before, brief as it might have been. Like he's at the edge of something.]

Is that so? You seem to be quite knowledgable about these things, Mr Michaelis. Are you an occultist?
[ He doesn't think you are, but... now this is a fun game. ]

"On occasion" seems to be putting it nicely.

Nothing quite as formal as that, I would say... Though I do have an interest in occult matters! The stories people tell of the supernatural are rather fascinating.

Perhaps. But who can know? I imagine to find out, a great price would have to be paid for such knowledge.

[Garrus does start leading, heading for the solar club. That will be a welcome change after winding up underwater again.]
In my experience, a drink or two helps. Three or four hinder, and then any more than that and you've just made a whole other mess.
[The teleporter pad is up ahead, and Garrus steps in.]
Personally, I'd think it would be more of a test of our critical thinking skills if we knew the point that the thing was trying to get across. Then, instead of reacting and dealing with things in the moment, we could put our head to that goal in the downtime. Work at it. Come up with options. Maybe they wouldn't work, but we'd be analyzing it more.

Of course, how could I forget? If I recall correctly, you said you liked eggplant parmesan while we were in Germany, once.

I am glad I am not alone in it then, I feared I was just becoming worse with these missives again.

Perhaps not a wise idea, I can drink a great deal.

Coming from the same place Mikasa does, I've no doubts you'll have a leg up on some of the others here.
