Wash had already been on his way - Archangel's call and Arbitrator's note, as well as Kubo's aborted message, had all been public, and he definitely keeps an eye on the open channels just in case. He's been making his way to the mess hall for a while now, and figured it was easier just to fly above the crowd of people than to try to push his way through.
So he is the very picture of calm and - he hopes - authority as he lands next to Kubo, putting himself between Kubo and- oh son of a bitch Arbitrator is from America's world. Suddenly this makes a whole lot more sense and gets a whole lot more complicated at the same time. The judge is bleeding, Garrus is roughed up, and luckily Beetle and Kubo seem to have managed to avoid the actual physical fight. Still. What a clusterfuck.
He sends Kid Q a message - fight in mess hall - over - will provide details - and gives himself a moment to roll his eyes, invisible behind his visor. Time for a kangaroo court, if only to keep The Law over there from going even more ballistic.
"Paperboy," he says in his best Serious Goddamn Business voice, clasping his hands behind his back. "You have confessed to inciting violence, Legionnaire infraction-" He rattles off a small string of numbers and letters. It's not complete bullshit - it's part of the Legionnaire code of conduct, but it's a passage about reporting conduct unbecoming a Legionnaire to the brass for them to handle. He's not expecting The Incredible Chin to know the entire Legionnaire code of conduct just yet, and hopefully anyone else will appreciate the joke instead of calling him on it. "I can see that this is your normal storytelling hour and location. Was your story today particularly violent?"
