While still at the Citadel, and still kicking it with Thane and Garrus (as usual) I decide to hit up Captain Bailey in C-Sec and ask him if he’s got any info on Thane’s son. He’s a Drell. Probably wearing an outfit a lot like this one Thane has on, with the exposed chest and stuff. Any help?
Bailey says he saw him hanging out with Mouse and I should go bother him instead. He tells me Mouse is selling a VI of me that says crazy shit like “if you wanna read that file, you’ll have to buy me another drink goddammit.” And then it would fire a fake gun in the air and pass out on your desk. Well that’s just…that’s just mean.
Garrus makes a joke at this. Oh haha, sure now you’re just a goddamn riot aren’t you? Now that I’m the one that’s all mad it’s fucking hilarious is that it? I…
*sigh*
I can’t stay or get made at you. You’re right. Let’s go find this guy.
Thankfully he’s just like….upstairs and he tells us what we want to know. Thane’s son was seen talking to Elias Kelham and we need to find HIM now instead. He gives me a copy of the Shepard VI too, but I can’t figure out how to install that thing in the Normandy at all.
We head back to Bailey and tell him what we found out and can he bring in that Kelham guy? Pretty please?
Oh, you have a “deal” with him. I frown at Bailey. It is a hard frown. Hey, Bailey. I got creds. How ’bout I bribe you to not take bribes? Now get Kelham in here.
In the interrogation room, I tell Thane that he can be bad cop.
And I will be what the fuck, get me away from her cop.
Kelham refuses to talk. I punch him in the face. He threatens me with lawyers and fancy talk and I punch him again. Thane asks me to go easy because I might kill him.
Kill him from punching him? What? Oh wait, I have like a lot of bone weaves and shit, I guess these might be hurting him more than I reali-GODDAMN KELHAM I’M SICK OF YOUR SHIT!
Aaaand I punch him again.
Finally I get what I want, and Kelham passes out or something, who cares. Let’s leave.
Thane’s son, Kolyat was hired to kill a local Turian politician. Thane and I will follow the politician around until Kolyat reveals himself. Makes sense.
While following the guy, I make little notes to myself.
“This guy is a douchebag.”
“What is on the bottom of my boots? They sure walk on metal quietly.”
“Where is Garrus? Is he getting drunk without me?”
Suddenly Kolyat comes charging at the Turian with a gun like…the worst assassination attempt ever. It’s a gun dude, you can shoot someone with it from far away. You don’t have to run at them screaming. Oh jeesh, now I gotta chase after you and stop you.
Thane and I find Kolyat in a room with the turian, ready to kill him. Kolyat is really pissed at seeing Thane suddenly and ready to pop that trigger at any second. I shoot the lamp behind him, and punch the gun out of his hands? It all happened quite fast, even I don’t remember what happened.
Except that Kolyat is the worst fucking assassin ever. Hug your fucking dad. Idiot.
I convince Bailey to give Kolyat community service instead of jailtime. He’s like “eeeeeh” and I’m like, bitch don’t make me frown at you again.
Another day saved, we all head back to the ship.
Wait wait wait.
First the bar.
Then the ship.
