Fragmented

Sometimes, word is wrong.

The last third, the forward third, was a big box, bristling with various sensory equipment, the largest of which was a communications array.

Shep: How are you getting drunk?
Tali: Very carefully. Turian brandy, triple filtered, then reintroduced into the suit through an emergency induction port.
Shep: That's a straw, Tali.
