Paying it forward, I'm pretty sure, is what keeps half the damn planets in the galaxy spinning Ryder. Paying it forward's what we do, and damn good on you for it. As for not helping Commander Shepard? C'mon. I put my boots on the same way you do. Don't know if we kick the same things with said boots, but, that's splitting hairs if you ask me.
Andromeda huh? Sounds to me like I better see if I can rustle you up a chair. It'll be good to here about how the other side of space is doing. How the hell'd you manage to get out there anyway? Last I knew we didn't have relays shooting that far out, and we didn't have ships that couldn't make the trip where you didn't die of old age. And, I'm willing to grant you I might not have been seeing straight, but unless you've aged really well, you're not that old. Or is this one of those things for when you're here?
Ha. They never stopped. Especially the Krogan, and the Sushi vendor nearby didn't help much either. I'm pretty sure the guy seeded the rumors himself.
