Three times during the dinner hour, I try to leave the battery. I can hear the low hum of conversation out there, the clink of plates and glasses. So I try. Try to walk casually into the mess, pick out a food ration from the cabinet marked ‘dextro’—while politely ignoring the stench of whatever Gardner’s serving tonight—and sit down across from Shepard, like I always do. We’d trade stories and reminisce about past missions, maybe debate the merits of various sniper scopes or trigger assemblies, laugh at Joker’s off-color (and frequently racist) jokes. Talk, like soldiers do. But tonight I have forgotten how. I’m suddenly afraid to be near him. Which is ludicrous. Shepard is my best friend in the galaxy. Maybe my only friend in the galaxy. Why am I afraid? Because he touched me?
Why does my heart pound every time I step towards the door? What does it know that I don’t?While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error. The AFF system includes a rigorous and complex abuse control system in order to prevent improper use of the AFF service, and we hope that its deployment indicates a good-faith effort to eliminate any illegal material on the site in a fair and unbiased manner. This abuse control system is run in accordance with the strict guidelines specified above.
