AUDIO

[ The voice that addresses the Link is vaguely masculine, but unmistakably synthesized in origin. It has about as much personality as Microsoft Sam, which helps hide the geths... 'Anxiety' isn't the right word, but it's close. ]

We are seeking methods of off-world communications. We cannot locate FTL communication networks, accessible or otherwise, at this time.

[ Which, for the geth, is a rather big deal.

There's a tiny, barely perceptible pause, then; ]

Crew of the Normandy, please respond. We are requesting immediate evac.

[ Someone please be monitoring this channel... EDI? Anyone? ]

Evac this. [Have a rude gesture.]

Who's this fraggin' 'we'? [Whirl squints around and sees...you.] You like Megatron with his invisible fairy army or something?

We are geth.

[ This is a perfectly sensible response by Legion's standards. ]

Geff?

You friends with the toad face?

Geth.

We will require further description before we are able to answer accurately.

's'what I said. Guess. Guest. Whatever.]

Red lizard thing. I dunno. Says I'm a lamp. [Rolls his optic: SO ORIGINAL]

[ Legion croaks quietly. ]

Are you referring to Urdnot Wrex?

Yeah or something like that. He says you have tentacles.

[No he doesn't but Whirl is all about trouble.]

He was incorrect.

[Oh, mischief!!]

Yeah? You normally let other guys spread lies about you and stuff?
[Fight fight fight!!]

Misconceptions of our species are common.

So. That part of your strategy or something? Cloaked in mystery?

[Cooooooool.]

Most organic species do not have any interest in us beyond destroying us.

Why? You like their favorite snack food or something?

They believe we are a threat to their survival.

And are you?

We are not. We only wish to be allowed to exist and shape our own future.

Yeah, wishing doesn't seem like it got you too far.
