Who needs lips to kiss?
*snip lovebird cuteness*


THANK YOU. 

I'm sorry, but NO.  Turians do not kiss the same way humans, asari, and drell do.  (The jury is still out on quarians for obvious reasons.)  Krogan can't kiss, as they have no lips to speak of, either.  Nor do salarians or hanar.

*squints*...am I missing anyone?


I never said they'd kiss the same.  Just that it wasn't all hard beak-like material.  More leathery.  

They wouldn't kiss the same, but I doubt turians make a habit of doing a lot of kissing anyway.

I wasn't targeting you with that statement, dearie.  You ought to know by now that if I mean it to be, I'll call out your name. :P

Besides, you've read my fanfiction.  You know my position on all this. <3

Hehe, Yep.  Though I've fallen behind.  Trying not to let others' influence me too much.  Let's just say... turians would be masters at French kissing.  B)

Oh, you're not missing anything of mine.  I have fallen victim to reading more than writing, due to having to "rest" so damned much in the last several months. *grumble*  No more, though.  I have some game testing I have to do, but beyond that?  Writewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewritewrite.......

Well, I posted what I've been doing in the writing group.  Until the end of June, now though, I am my Shepards' ****.  That includes Meghan and Garrus in both universes.

*spits out twinkie*

:huh:

*tilts head sideways*
:blush:



I still contend it's not precisely the same....but the idea of Grunt trying it out on Shepard is kinda
cute.  In that creepy, "Okay, kid, we REALLY need to talk about your
people skills..." kind of way. *grin*

Hey everyone, just dropping by before i head to work and thought-

*sees Gurnt kissing Shep*

WHAT THE!?!?! XDDDD Thats adorable!!
Looks like Grunt has a different interpretation of what "Battlemaster" means Posted Image

As for the "Turian lips" conversation: Turians have lips, its just that theyre arent pliable as humans. If you watch Garrus while he speaks, you can notice slight gestures. Ive noticed at times he can pout his lips out slightly :3 Another prime example would be when he's telling his reach&flexibilty story [particularly the tiebreaker part] where the camera is zoomed in on his face. 
If he were to kiss Shep, he'd probably just apply pressure back at her......and then maybe some tonguePosted Image Whatever works, its the thought that counts ^_O

And eh- yes, as people can guess from my posts- I do watch and listen to Garrus....very closelyPosted Image


edit: Hmmmmm we were talking about mandibles and now turian lips. I LOVE this thread so much! *hugs for all*
hmm, anyone guess that Garrus can slightly lick Sheps cheek as another form of a kiss?Posted Image Id be TOTALLY ok with it!

i've seen some interesting ideas in fic how they could "kiss" though the two parrots from last page is adorable. :D also truth.

and that picture of Grunt and Shepard made me go 'd'awwwwwww' :D a lot.

and someone mentioned turian purring. I fully and wholey support this. it is in my headcanon that turians purr.

The Grunt kiss would be adorable... If Shep didn't have her mouth open. Shep, there's no way frenching a krogan is going to work. Ew.

RE: Turian sounds. I still want to imagine that turians make trilling sounds. I just think it would sound so pretty with the flange.

His armour looks a bit.. different? It's such a small picture that it's hard to see for sure.

The conversation about what sounds turians can or can't make (mmm) has me thinking - suppose there are sounds that turians can make that we can't? So then maybe "Garrus" is just the translator's best approximation of, say, "!Ghar≈r*s," extraneous symbols of course representing some hypothetical turian sounds.

Oooh, pretty litho....

That'd be cool. Maybe they employ clicks and screeches, or dual-toned sounds what with the voice flanging.

On a side note, love your mandible sig, MoonEcho. xD

Well, Miranda and Jacob look very prominent. A central Miranda is probably to be expected though Posted Image. Garrus' armour is definately darker, he looks really good though. I also love how Jack and Legion are posed, them and Garrus all look amazing in this. Wonder how much this costs in pounds...

It's 80 USD (excluding the massive shipping bill, can only imagine how much that will cost to ship down here). I think Garrus is holding a gun in front of him so that's obscuring some of the armour (hmm nobody else is holding a weapon). The poses are great, except poor Grunt is kind of hidden in the background. I actually don't mind Miranda in the centre, at least the pose she has sin't overly sexualisesd.

@Aris, ooh, I like that idea about dual-tones, that would be awesome AND make sense given their translated voices anyway. Maybe it's more musical than what we pick up? Like, to make the proper 'a' sound in Garrus, it's approximately the notes G and a B-flat together.

Also, thaaanks :D

I was reading this article about smell and apparently our kiss is just a modifided eskimo kiss, so maybe turians rub noses, that would be cute ^_^ Hmm speaking of noses I wonder what Garrus thinks of shepards comparatively massive squishy nose lol :P

He probably thinks it's weird, lol human noses. Especially if Shepard has a more upturned, pixie nose (which mine does).

I am just visiting here to say... I LIKE GARRUS WHOLLALOT! He is my main Shepys best-eva-buddy. And I know for certain that one of my other Shepys have hots for him.:wub:.. and amost everything on the ship is so nicely calibrated, priceless!  Anyhow, just had to say it at least once.

I like this thread also, loads of nice info on Turians.. didnt read all yet, but I am slowly working on it. And now I am seriously curious about how they would sound and kiss and all.^_^

Moonecho, what a sig! I imagine Lorik is a great guy to chill out and have a drink with :D

Also, rubbing noses would be cute! Probably not something for in game though, I would prefer some close cuddling.

Hi Shanya! :D

The one upside to turians getting so little of the spotlight is it leaves a lot of room for interesting discussion and speculation. Of course, I'd love more canon info on them, but I won't deny I find it really interesting theorizing on various aspects of their culture and biology and so on. ^_^
