Ever since they departed from the Citadel with her Spectre status fully reinstated despite the verbal sparring match with Sparatus, Valern, and Tevos over whether or not the Reapers were truly the threat she claims them to be, Isabela has been running herself ragged between upgrading the ship, recruiting new squadmates, and trying to find proof that the Collectors are working for the Reapers.

In one of her rare moments where she's finally sat down for longer than two minutes, Izzy had been listening to Garrus and Tali discussing some of the further upgrades they both had planned when the familiarity of the technical talk and the soothing voices of her best friends and her mate lulled her to sleep propped up against Garrus's side.

Though the moment that Garrus starts to move, a low whine of protest is heard from the human as Izzy only barely wakes enough to wrap her arms around his waist and tangle her legs around one of his before dozing right back off the second he stills again.

"Oh," Tali laughs quietly as she realises what's happened, her smile clearly heard in her voice. "I had wondered why she wasn't offering any suggestions of her own." Glowing silver eyes crinkle in the corners as she looks to Garrus in amusement at the situation he now finds himself in with their commander asleep on him. "Should I bring you some kava? I don't think she's going to let you up anytime soon."
