LOG ENTRY 20.0.0 (PreMission)

The Normandy brought us close to the base; I told EDI to wait until after this mission to test the IFF; we would need the Normandy's stealth systems to get even in the same system as the Heretic Geth's base.

Legion would be coming along but I decided to bring Tali along with me; after some convincing of course. I trusted her more than anyone to help me keep an eye on the Geth, after all she did work on them a lot.

Supplemental 20.1.0 (Station)

We got so close to the Outpost that we were able to cut a hole through the hull. We were all sealed up as the Geth do not need Oxygen nor gravity to operate. It took us a few minutes to finally reach some security checkpoints. The geth were machines and they did not expect anyone to be here; it was as if we were in a computer instead of walking a station.

Supplemental 20.1.1

We began to fight our way through the Geth; they know we are here but don't know where. Legion has told us that in the next room, we can hack into their core and plant the virus; but he is having second thoughts.. or... millions of them in fact.

Legion is not just one geth, he is thousands, millions.. a Collective in a single body. I bet it would take them forever to choose from a menu of foods if they were human.

Supplemental 20.1.2

We started the hack, and the geth began pouring into the room. legion had not known what he should do; he left the choice to me... I told him to do it; it would be good for their people and we could use the geth later on if the Reapers do attack.

After the waves of Geth that attacked, Legion told us that there would be a EM field that would go on all Faster than Light channels to every geth in the galaxy... problem is the EM field would fry our own bodies at this range...

I wish he had told us that before we started. We managed to rush back to the Normandy and the moment we were aboard; I told Joker to kick the engines to way above maximum.

Supplemental 20.2.0 (Normandy)

We got out the system faster than a Krogan to water... I headed to my quarters and got my armour off and had a quick shower. I sat for a while just staring at the picture of Liara and Tali I had on my desk.. but I guess I couldn't have a time to rest; Joker told me Legion and Tali were going at it in the AI core.

Supplemental 20.2.1

Turns out Legion was trying to send data from Tali's Omni tool about the Flotilla to the geth. I wasn't in the mood for the fighting, we just worked together and now they were getting at each other?

I told them we needed to both help each other, we are not going to work well if we don't work together. Legion agreed to not hurting the Quarians while Tali gave legion some not so essential data. This was a big step for her but I knew I would probably get an ear of it later.
