[Shepard never asked the cost, but Miranda would know it to the tenth point past the decimal.] If it was just guns, or biotics, or contacts that got anything done, that's where they'd have spent at all. But even they knew it isn't. It's people. It's us. Sure, we've got new tricks to learn, but this is what we do.
[That said, she can dial down the patented Commander's Intensity. Just a little bit.]
Let's just... try to make sure our learning experiences don't always come with that a high a price tag.
