"It is not that the wiring was bad, it just wasn't rodent proof.
If it makes you feel better your welds and reinforcements were
top notch."

"maybe I can assist. I have access to alliance databases back at
the triskelion. If you have some form of identification this
could make the process easier."

"I am trying an old contact in deep space salvage. Instead of
the yards we might find more options off world in the other
systems. Derelict spacecraft might be a good option once we are
flying."
Star lord took a few steps back and admired the ship. It looked
better than he ever thought. Shauna smiled under her helmet as
she moved to join him.
"Razgriz, huh? Why that name?"
"She was practically discarded when I got her. No one wanted
her. Rummaging through the cockpit, I found an inscription on a
metal plate. It wasn't part of the ship but bolted in by someone
else. It was all that was written in a cursive pattern. Not sure
if it was a crewmember or what they called her. I don't know
what it means or where it came from, but it didn't feel right to
take that away from her."

He hits a button on his wrist and the Shield with the Overwatch
symbol appears.
"This and my code name was Prep."

Shauna stared at him. She knew exactly the type of connection he
felt with the ship. It was something embedded in the quarian
culture. She still couldn't help nudging him.
"Such a sentimentalist."
Star lord threw his arm over her shoulder. He didn't care she
was covered in grease.
"Part of you is in that ship."
He turned to her.
"I will never forget that."
They both enjoyed the moment

The silence lasts a while until star lord breaks it
Remember when I said I would talk to that off-world salvage
guy…"
Shauna inquisitively tilted her head.
"…I lied. I already talked to him two weeks ago.I found ya a
shi-"
He was clobbered by Shauna, though managed to stay on his feet
and return the hug.
"Hahaha. Okay, calm down. It is a derelict ship in the Faryar
system of the Hourglass Nebula. It is not a Kowloon or Athabasca
freighter; we are talking along the lines of a decade old
Corvette class. Not running, but 'supposedly' minimal work to
get moving. I think you'll like it."

"Well in that case I guess I will stick with you. Lead the way.
Who won the Turian war anyway? What year is it?"
We walked back toward this Triskellion I heard him talking
about. A lot has changed.

Shauna couldn't find the words. Star lord swore she was tearing
up beneath her helmet. The silence was broken by the pop of the
champagne.
"Here. Time to celebrate. I had my guy put on a temp
registration and towed to the nearest mass relay."
The cling of the glass bottles echoed in the engine bay. Shauna
savored the taste of champagne through her straw while he took a
swig of bourbon.

"2183 CE sir. The first contact war only lasted three months.
Humans explored far enough into space to encounter a mass relay.
These machines are capable of transporting ships at speeds
faster than FTL. We claimed it....We just diddint know we were
hundreds of years behind. Since then humans have played catch
up, but things might change now we have a seat in the citadel
council. Surprisingly there's never been an intergalactic war.
Thankfully."
