Garrus was considered attractive by Turian standards? She can't hide her eyebrows arching at that, or the pleased little smile that flashes across her face. He was attractive by her standards, but it was nice to know his own species appreciated that fringe, too. Several conversations about scars replay themselves in her head, unbidden, and she struggles to keep a straight face, a thousand questions blossoming in her mind.

Well, here's the perfect opportunity to quiz a Turian about that isn't Garrus about, well... — she lets her eyes trail as surreptitiously up and down Nihlus' entire tattooed body as she can, a sudden frisson running down her spine — everything.

Nope. Maybe, maybe someday, but here, now, like this? Not a chance in hell. Certain she'd already given away too much, she fixes her eyes on the distance, and tilts her head as if she's thinking about good times, and not cold showers.

"Usually when people talk to me about Garrus, it's either what a good shot he is, or how much they want to kill him. This is actually the first time anyone's brought up his looks." Not completely true, but functional. Kelly just wanted to give him a hug, or... something. She pushes that thought out of her mind, too.

"Humanity's broken down a lot of barriers, but sometimes I wonder if they'll ever make it over their own self-imposed ones. Are Turian showers shared? You mentioned something about a nudity taboo?" Those two are at least generic enough.
