Eyes part 1

"Artificial intelligence?" Shepard's attentive gaze touched the frigate commander's eyes.

"Yes," Anderson confirmed. "Fully developed artificial intelligence, Captain. I don't understand in detail how this can be, but the engineering group of the frigate... is unanimous. I prefer to trust my men and their judgment, Captain," Anderson replied. "It looks like we have a third problem. If you count this monster as the first, and the two who are currently in the medical bay as the second, then the Geth... will be quite capable of solving the third problem."

"A report from Alenko?" The XO asked.

"He was, Captain," the frigate commander confirmed. I sent a cargo shuttle there a few minutes ago. He'll be back in the ship's hangar soon. Then we will remove the Lighthouse from the external suspension and load it into a container. I think that if necessary, we can load the Lighthouse into a container and outside the ship — we have the conditions and opportunities for this. So we can choose what is best to do. Let's not rush it. The archaeologists are happy that these "walkers" did not reach them. They dubbed these Geth paratroopers "Walkers." Alenko did an excellent job. And it seems he's got a match there." Anderson relaxed a little, hesitated. "Commander of a platoon of marines assigned by the Alliance Air Force to protect archaeologists. A certain Sergeant Ashley Williams. Alenko himself is happy and glad that now he does not suffer from migraines. He's able to think straight twenty-four hours a day. Although... next to Sergeant Williams, it's hard to talk about his sobriety...." Anderson chuckled... "Young people..."

I believe that Corporal Jenkins can be granted a short-term leave until our departure, Captain." Shepard left the main decision to the discretion of the frigate commander. "He has a mother, a father, and a sister his."

"Let's not let anyone off the ship for now, Captain." Anderson said calmly and quietly. "And, I suppose, something is bothering you very seriously again."
