[His aim. Like he even knows. It's certainly not the intention he'd started with. Garrus glances down before shaking his head.]
Did you start whatever you've got with Vriska with clear aim? Some sort of angle?
[Now he looks back up, over at Hibari, to meet the kid's eyes.]
Gonna bet no.
[This is not easy. Battle tactics, weapons schematics, they're things he can sort out in his head and talk his way through. This is uncharted territory.]
I'm planning on seeing where this goes. I like this. I like Noh. And if you've got a problem with that, then you can keep it to yourself. Because I don't give a damn.
[ Oh goodness, Garrus is being awfully cute. A bit bullheaded in the face of teenage stupidity, but Noh-Varr can imagine that whatever Turian teenagers are like, Hibari's temperament is foreign. (He suspects that no matter the species, Hibari's temperament is its own animal.)
He exchanges a long-suffering look with Vriska. ]
Tell your boyfriend to lay off, or I'm going to sit him down and have a long and difficult talk about intentions. And shotguns. That's what they do on Earth, isn't it?

What's your aim, old man?
