Along the large walk ways of the citadel. Ailens alike. Krogan, human, asari , vorcha, batarian big and small walked talked and conversed together. Two stood out from the large crowds. A Human wearing a hoodie with purple a purple streak on the right arm. His hood over his face. The clothes seemed bulky. The other a smaller turian with a hood and small jewl like studs hanging from part of the hood. The turian was female and was holding the humans arm tightly.
After a bit they walked into a tech store full of parts. Synthetic limbs and many others. The two got rather long stares since by judging at the height the turian was only 16 to 17 years of age. While the humans height gave off early to mid 20s. As they approached the counter a salrian worker came up from behind it. "may i help you?" Asked the salarian looking to them. The human reached into his pocket and pulled out a small busted piece of tech. "a communicator?" Said the salarian looking at the busted piece. "long story" said the human as the turian walked off looking at the items on display. "well this is high quality tech so it will take 6 to 8 weeks before i-" "just give me parts so we can fix it" he interrupted. The slarian looked to him a bit insulted but nodded. "are you sure? For best results I recommend..." "I'm sure" replied the human. The salarian nodded again before heading to search for piece's.
After a good several minutes the slarian returned with small fragile components. "you will need these to fix it" he said placing them on the counter. He then pulled up another smaller piece he did not recognize. "what's this?" Asked the human pointing to it. The slarian smiled and leaned in. "new prototype technology. Allows user to listen in on encrypted comm channels hard to crack. Also modifies users voice to simulate another's." He whispered with a smile. The human looked to him "i don't know why you-" "its ok" butted the salarian. "i know your special forces. My friend is one. Consider this a gift" he smiled before retracting. "now" he spoke up. "with your discount that will be 50 credits." The human only looked to the salarian with a smile before using his omni-tool to send the credits.
The small turian looked over to the human but back to the tech she spotted. Looking over she saw the newest holo consol. Next to it sat a large display of miniature ships. Each from different races. Including the geth ship which fascinated her most. She got closer and gently picked up the model ship looking it over.

Kara'Frey, the petite Quarian traveller in the black and vibrant orange coloured suit had never been a person of many words. She was one of those 'silently enjoying and assisting other people' persons. For that exact reason, she had been more than happy for the chance to become someone's travelling companion. Even though to her the pilgrimage had been a good tool to escape the senselesness of her boring life on Rannoch, the chance to see the universe meant nothing if there was no one to share it with. Yet Coeus undoubtedly was the ideal sort of company to her: He never seized to amaze her, make her think of things in entirely new and unique ways, and question whatever was happening around both of them. Right now, she enjoyed her life the way it was, even though at the moment she basically did nothing useful for anyone out there... She just collected assorted memories. Interesting places, unique people, astonishing sights. A universe within a universe, caught within tiny things like reflections on water, a sound echoing through an empty corridor or the beautiful flickering of a tiny flame... By now she had started to draw. Drawing down these assorted memories into a little blue book, which basically started to become not just a diary but a piece of art describing her (hopefully) never ending journey...
Right now however, their magical way to travel and experience the universe had to wait for a moment and leave room for simple, all down to earth sorts of problems: She had a problem which left no time for delays. Right now she did not even wish to take the tie to reach a tech shop run by a fellow Quarian. Right now it had to be quick and efficient, questions of price and policy would be secondary.
Without much of a greeting, she (hopefully still followed by Coeus) entered the little shop. She passed a young Turian girl who was looking at a little model ship. Curious. Kara actually wanted to have that exact same sort of model when she had been a child, yet her parents did not permit her to buy it, because it might make her 'glorify the Geth'... Glorify my ass... She thought, remembering that she bought it anyway, with a shallow smile on her lips. Surprisingly cheerfully waving at the young girl, Kara eventually turned around and headed towards the shop's owner again. Clearly, he was talking to a customer, and there might be room to wait for some more minutes before having to interrupt their conversation because of an emergency. Right now however, she remained silently next to the human man talking to the shop's owner, just with a little gesture greeting the shop's owner, then pointing at her neck/backside as a quick sort of Quarian gesture, that there was something wrong with her enviro-suit...

The asari had been waiting in line until the human had been served. She was browsing the inventory and displays. The store was weird mixture of old and rare electronics (which was why she was here for, friends having suggested the place) and even model spaceships, which were seeing kind of renaissance lately and there even was a Fleet Orison shuttle…. Eventually, she got her turn with the shopkeeper. “Hi, I am looking for XTX-MC 347 IC, the old 6 series. I have an older recon drone which I like very much and it’s all discontinued now but friends thought, you might be able to help me.”
And of course he could, digging up a plastic container with the tiny IC unit. “Indeed I can. They were pretty good before the war but I suppose the resources were missing to continue all the old ones after the rebuild of Letworth Inc.” the salarian explained. “Thanks” Taleeze said, as she paid on the terminal. Before heading out, she was stopping at the model section, looking at the displays and the young turian who was obviously looking at a particular example with longing eyes. A quarian was also circling the shelf, probably closely followed by some surveillance equipment of the store owner. Taleeze looked at the Fleet Orison, which was only 460 C. Would that be a nice present for Freh’ya? Maybe her mate could place it in her office. Taleeze knew about the mission her commando made had been on about a year ago which had involved the type. Should she really… “They look pretty cool, don’t they?” she asked, leaning closer to an assembled demonstration model, which was obviously not for sale, sitting on top of the boxes. “It’s awesome what kind of detail they can create for that low price these days.”

The human glanced over to the Quarian and gave small smile before looking to the geth looking it head to toe before glancing back at the Quarian, "if you have a suit problem i could help" he said tucking the parts away in his pocket. "ill be outside the store on the bench so if you need me ill be there" he said walking out glancing to the asari and his little friend. the store owner looked to them and waited at the counter.
the small turian looked over " oh they look super cool!" yelled the turian with joy "its a amazing they don't need windows to see outside, plus the over all looks of the ships" she squealed. "i hope i can buy this but i dont know if i have enough credits, my dad does i think but he might not let me get it." she placed the model ship back down and began to think for a moment before pulling out her omni tool to search the web for prices. "maybe i can make a deal with the guy" she said looking to the salarian who was attending the quarian.
the human walked outside of the store and looked around before sitting on the bench in front of it, as soon as he did he slouched forward and sighed a bit. "did not expect this" he mumbled taking the little part he was given and looked it over. *so this can crack comms and mimic voices huh?* he asked himself in his head. "dosent hurt to try it out later" he said tucking it away. he looked up back into the store before seeing a hanar next to him. "may i help you?" he asked looking up. "this one is curios" "about?" replied the human. "this one woul like to know why your outfit seems so bulky but your body seems so thin" said the hanar coming closer. "its nothing" said the human. the hanar remained a bit before speaking. "this one is sorry for wasting your time, have a nice day" it said moving on. the human waited before it left and looked back into the store watching his turian friend.

“Oh, they don’t have windows?” Taleeze replied. Looking closer. Of course it made sense, since the geth probably didn’t care as much for impressive panorama sights on spaceliners as organics did. “Makes sense for them I guess. I wouldn’t want to travel in such a tin can though.” And they would not have to bother with bad tasting food on spaceships. A thing Taleeze never got over was the bland taste of literally everything on spaceliners. She pointed to a model of a spiky turian fighter. “My dad used to fly these. Well, the pre-pre-decessor or course, but close enough.” She could actually go to lengths pointing out the noticeable and not-so-noticeable differences of then and now. She looked over her shoulder to the salarian, then back to the turian. “Oh, sure, try your luck with him!”

For some odd reason, he always seems to get damaged every day. A cut tube one day, a new arm the next. His optic was replaced 57 times and that's just this month. It gave Coeus a feeling similar to that of annoyance. For Kara-creator, however, he would risk it once more.
"Asari, I suggest you save your business for later. My partner has much more urgent matters to attend to. Quite literally "Life and Death"...Please..."

Kara instantly looked up to the human male, as he was offering her assistance with her suit problem. Well, basically not the shop owner, but then again, he might be able to help her as well. It was at least worth to find out about, while the owner was talking to other customers. No lost time, and maybe a really good chance for Kara t get help quickly. However, as he simply left, Kara just gave him a puzzled look. He did not even give her time to reply, not to mention he simply left. So maybe after all he was not qualified at all, otherwise he would not try to get her out of a shop that probably had the required equipment... Kara sighed. She was about to get nervous. Slowly but surely she wanted the others to hurry up. Still, she was too polite to simply interrupt.
As the Asari pointed out the model of ship her father had been flying, Kara tilted her head. "I'm not a expert on ships..." Yeah, probably the first Quarian to most others to not fulfil the stereotype of being a starship obsessed engineering genius... "...But it looks pretty! I always had a thing for Turian ships. They're pragmatically designed, yet still look impressive. Maybe I should get myself one like this for my collection one day. Probably would be good company to my Geth ship model on the desk..." She chuckled a it, yet it was an audibly and obvious attempt to act over her... Current tension. She felt a drop of sweat running down her forehead. So this was how far it got by now? Brilliant... She had not bee sweating for as long as she was able to remember. Definitely not a good sign...
As Coeus interrupted the conversation however, she focused her companion again. He had been silent for the last couple of minutes, and given that Kara was pretty worried about other things, she did not think about why he even had been silent after all. Now however, she was surprised to hear him talk. Talk like this. In an almost... Protective manner. if the situation would not have been serious, Kara very probably would have been flattered to see someone doing this for her. "It's okay...." She simply said, even though basically nothing was okay...

"is something wrong?" Asked the young turian glancing over to her. She smiled and looked to the geth. She was a bit nervous. She has only met one geth in her life and this large one looked rather neat to her. But it would be rude to ask to look at him and his features.
The human looked into the store. He noticed his little friend glaring at everyone and noticed the qaurian. She seemed rather off to him. "great job" he said to himself realizing he never gave her a chance to respond. He got up from the bench and walked inside waiting for everyone to be done.
A slarian from outside with a turian friend glanced inside at the human. They whispered to one another before walking on still glaring to him. The slarian looked back at the human puzzled but continued to wait to attend someone.

"Excuse me?" Taleeze turned to the geth in surprise.
"We are not holding anything up, just browsing the shelf, just go ahead to the desk! I'm sorry if you got the wrong impression." She made a gesture towards the spot where the salarian clerk was eyeing everyone with his big salarian eyes. She shrugged at her newly acquired turian friend and smiled.
The store was getting quite cramped now. The geth did look a bit beat up but... wait! No expert on ships? Did the quarian really say that? "Yes, and they are awfully loud when flying low over your house. I loved the screaming noise as a kid,. My mum hated it though." It was the 'daddy is showing off' effect of course. "But Don't worry, Miss. I know suit affairs are to be taken serious. Just go ahead."

"Thank you, Asari. Your flexibility and helpful demeanor has been noted and appreciated."
Coeus stepped up to the counter. "This unit requests assistance. Kara-Creator's suit has been compromised. Probability of death is great if this problem is not treated. This unit is in the state resembling panic and your aid would greatly reduce it. This unit is willing to work at your shop to pay off any debts. If need be, for the rest of its time functioning."

the salrian worker looked to the qaurian and back to the geth, "im sorry but our store dosent sell any qaurian tech and im not sure i have the know how to fix the suit." he looked down with a face of sarrow and a little bit of shame. "all i can offer is you head to the medical clinic, i doubt they will help but that is all i can offer" he said looking up to them.

This distressed the Geth. They were already running out of time. He had to think of something.
"This unit has an inquiry: Could any of this units parts aid in the repair of Kara-creator's suit?"

The salrian looked to the parts the geth mentioned. "well. I'm not too sure these will work but you can try. I...have no real idea friend. Forgive me." He said ringing up the price for the parts. "well the parts are rather pricy. Around 3000 credits all together. If you cant offord those I'm afraid I cant help, I'm sorry I really am"
The human over heard them and glanced over his shoulder. "damn that's pricy. And i doubt they can pay that at all let alone work up the money before his little friend kills over" he mummbled in his brain to himself. "hmmm maybe i should help"

This unit is sorry for the misunderstanding. This unit did not mean the parts that this unit is currently holding. This unit meant the parts that this unit...is made of."

What did she just hear? Did that geth suggest to be disassembled to help that quarian? Well, geth could upload into suits… and survive. Taleeze knew that, since the whole ImmunoTherapistAssitant thing was based on this.
She turned to the quarian, next to her at the shelf with the models. She didn’t seems as concerned as the geth though. “What’s the problem if I may ask? Is it really that urgent? Aren’t there specialized suit repair stores down in Little Rannoch?”
