[For once in her life, Shepard has actually taken the time to properly encrypt something. It's still got a few holes in the code (she isn't an engineer), but it's a far cry more serious than her usual fare.]We have a problem and it's in Zone 08

There's other people going to check this out and I don't trust any of them as far as I can throw them.
Pack extra heatsinks. This could get interesting.

Get you or one of the others to keep me updated on who's going in and out of the zone. Not in the mood for anything I don't already expect, which is as it stands, a hell of a lot.
I can get to the zone in less than a minute, expect me back at the base in one hour. Don't bother with a pick up if I'm not back by then.
Something tells me that'll only cause more problems. Trusting my gut on this assignment.

Agreed.
You find something, get a sample if you can. If it is a bioweapon, I want Mordin on it an hour ago.

I'll give you what intel I can when I'm back, if Therket doethn't kill me.

It's a creepy pillar? Fine. [That meant that it was a stationary object. Stationary objects that project brain-frequency disruptions? This sounded familiar. Shepard just scowls.]
Massani is headed in, stay out of his way.
Get as much on the lay of the land as you can. Samples if you can manage them.
Keep me posted.

You're the boss, boss-lady. I'll stay scarce and poke at what I can. Man.
I didn't think this place could get stranger.

...Something about it is. Distinctly unpleasant.

[For the first time in a long time, Shepard wishes she had an archaeologist on hand.
If this thing wasn't Reaper, Collector, or Prothean, it probably wasn't from their...universe. It might not be playing by the same rules, and that was a prospect she didn't like.]
If you note any changes, in it or the surrounding environment, let me know.

You're not hurting for volunteers.

[There's three teams in there, if her net-monitoring is accurate all focused on that pillar, or the results thereof. Motoko's experiencing symptoms from both the mechanical and biological side-effects. The net result is that...]
It's an explosion waiting to blow. [This is her tactical opinion. You probably don't want it.] The fewer the better.
