“Just quit thrashing around back there or you’ll fall off and break a hip or something.”
“I’m not thrashing─ I’m gesticulating for emphasis.”
“Dunno, sound kinda the same to me, Jefe.”
“Alright, alright. Meet in the middle and call it ‘thrashing with critical intent’, then.”
“Whatever you wanna call it, just don’t fall or Shepard‘ll have my ass for breaking his precious pilot.”
“He’d have to beat Chakwas to it, and honestly, my money’s on Chakwas. She’s got those mama bear instincts; she’s mean, man.”
“…shit. You’re right.“
“Yeah I am.”
Joker ‘helps‘ Vega with his workout when he’s off duty some nights. Vega looked like he was having too easy a time with all those pushups and the body heat feels good on Jeff’s back so it’s a win-win X’D If they both happen to enjoy the company and the physical contact… well, there’s generally no one around to call them out on it in the cargo bay at that hour…
