[Video] Waking Up Alone
[Garrus appears on screen, running a hand through his hair. He didn't seem sad, or shaken, or depressed, or at least he was trying not to. He was just looking for the right way to say this. Not for his sake, but for the kids. Sugar coating things was something he was never good at, so eventually, he just settled on saying it.]
Shepard's gone, and ... I don't think it's another data-stream. Don't ask me how I know, but something in my gut tells me she's back home.
[He sighs, again fishing for words. He'd been doing that a lot recently, thinking about it.]
I can't exactly speak for her, but, ah ... I'm sure she'd say she's sorry for just up and disappearing. And that if she could have, she would have said goodbye.
[There's a little loneliness in his eyes for a moment, as he offers a reassuring smile aimed at the kids.]
I'm not much of a substitute, but if anyone needs to talk, or, ... or anything, I'll be around.

[He idly looks away from the screen over to Shepard's side of the bed. It was still warm when he'd woken up. Now ...? He reached over, and put a hand on the soft mattress. Cold. He's quiet, just looking at where his best friend and the love of his life had been a few hours ago. He doesn't even look back at the camera.]
I miss her.

[She knew what it was like when someone important left...so she knew there wasn't really anything she could say or do that could really help.]

I'll let you know. [Garrus smiles. He may not look like his usual self, but he's a little more at peace than he was before.] Thanks.

[Even though he was feeling better ... he still needed a little time to adjust to the fact that Shepard is gone.]
