[Now where has he heard that before?]
[Maybe it's time to pass some mentor-student knowledge along, even though Fox is growing to be more of an equal every day]
Don't.
It's not worth it.
[LISTEN TO HIM, YOUNG PADAWAN LEARNER.]

I'm not about t'let him get away with it. If he has the misfortune of showin' up here with me, he better watch his ass.
[normally he would listen but he's had three rootbeer schnapps in a row and plenty of pent up aggression from the last couple weeks.
but rather than be all angry he's just going to cross his arms on the table and lay his chin on them, ears all drooping and flicking occasionally.]
I dunno. I couldn't even shoot the guy that actually killed Dad. But this is different.

I think I understand what you mean.
[Garrus waves away the next drink (although he'll still pay for it), hopefully discreetly enough where Fox can't notice. 8| Stupid lightweight kid]
It just shows you've still got a chance not to let revenge ya. It's tempting, it's really, really tempting, but you'll come out for the better if you let it go.
[He kind of sounds like he's trying to convince himself a bit, but, for the most part, Garrus truly believes in those words]

I keep telling myself the same thing.
[Fox doesn't notice, he's made himself all cozy and doesn't feel like moving anyway]
It hasn't been an issue so far, after all the guy isn't even here. I honestly don't know what I'd do if he ever showed up. He took the only family I had left from me. I don't...
[Fox paused, straightening up in his seat.This is why he usually didn't drink. That, and the last time he went out drinking with someone, his wallet went missing 8(]
Sorry, I don't usually whine about this kind of thing.

Eh. I'll just consider it payback for chewing you out.
[Garrus manages to order a few glasses of water-- more for Fox than himself, but shh]
Anyway, it sounds like you had it rough, McCloud. During your time here, before, everything.
But, if it helps, I think you came out the better for it.

You think so?
[look at that happy tail flick. But his face is still all "SRS BIZNESS"]
Honestly, a few years ago, I never expected to be the kind of person I am today. I guess I really didn't know what to expect at all.

Trust me, you're not the only one to feel that way.
You did good, McCloud.

Hah.
Thanks, Garrus. It really means a lot to hear that. A little reassurance every now and then never hurts.

Yeah, well... it's the least I could do after tearing you a new one.
Well, don't worry about it. I'm just glad it's behind us.
[OH HE'S GONNA WORRY. Asshole's Guilt is a powerful emotion]
[He pushes over a glass of water that I will say arrived because WHATEVAH]
Same.
Now drink up. You're gonna need it.

[ Fox takes a sip of water, and theeeeeeeeeen remembers something very important]
Oh.
You kind of busted my friend's nose.

I've busted a lot of noses, kid. You're gonna have to be more specific.

Nerdy human kid with glasses, he was working at the pound this month. He told me that a dinosaur in blue armor busted in and put a gun in his back, and then headbutted him in the face.
[fox doesn't seem too bothered by this. IN FACT, he looks rather amused.]

Glasses... Oh! Yeah, okay. Now I know who you're talkin' about.
I told him not to scream, but he went ahead and did it anyway. Pissed himself too.

He. Pissed himself.
