That interrupt doesn't stand a chance.

Also that outline of Garrus crotch could really be taken out of context you know.  If someone casually dropped in here and saw that first thing, they'd probably run away screaming.


Oh the irony, first time I come in here and thats the thing I see :whistle:

Not gonna go run away screaming through, love Turians :D




Well, we're quite weird in here so maybe it's best that you see that upfront and know what you are getting into.  ^_^

We also sometimes mysteriously vanish for a while and then return as if nothing happened....

I can't even eat as much as I want to barf right now. Working my way through the Jacob convos...... :sick::sick::sick::sick:
He's so.....and my Shep is even more so :sick::sick::sick::sick::sick:
GAH!
I had to use an early Lana save for that......god that hurts so much. From before she even started romancing Thane. Made her go straight for Garrus, then finally got Jacob to talk.....oh my goodness.....she REALLY has to push him towards this......YIKES!

PS: Of course it doesn't really help that she just came back from doing Samara's loyalty mission and is still wearing that sweet Asari dress.....well at least she will look good in the videos xD I hope you can understand that I won't be able to edit them tonight.....I will need a Jacob break after that I guess

I love Garrus.  I love turians. I love weird people.  I love alcohol. I love this thread. I figured it’s about time I delurked. 
 
I was recently discussing Garrus with a friend who’s relatively new to ME, and is starting a second Shep just for our favorite turian. It got me thinking about how the character has evolved not only in my Sheps’ eyes, but my own as well. After playing ME1, I thought Garrus was awesomesauce and definitely one of my favorite squaddies. But I was still surprised to find out that many people were disappointed that he wasn’t a romance option.   Not only was he my Shep’s buddy, but he was so alien (I know, I know!), I just couldn’t see it. I never thought the idea was repulsive, mind you, it was just more a case of “would that even…work?”
 
When I played ME2, I was completely spoiler-free, so I didn’t know Archangel’s identity until he removed his helmet. My reaction pretty much mirrored Shepard’s (squeee Garrus!). Like most people, I loved his progression from the hot-headed, pole retaining, student in ME1 to the BAMF he is now. I’m also one of those people who think he was totally flirting (even subconsciously) with FemShep during that scene, regardless of him saying the same lines to DudeShep. My reaction (as well as my Shep’s) was, “Wait. Did Garrus just…flirt with me? Cute.” I figured -that- was going to be the extent of the so-called fan service, so I didn’t think too much about it.
 
I had somewhat of a derpy moment during the reach and flexibility convo and clicked the wrong prompt, so it wasn’t until I reloaded a save prior that I realized you could romance him this time around. I’ll admit that it was total curiosity, at first. But by the end of that first “testing the waters” conversation, I was starting to see him in a different light, right along with Shep. As things moved along, it was apparent to me that this wasn’t simply a FWB situation. These are two individuals who, through mutual respect, suddenly realize that there are deeper feelings than either have admitted to (to themselves, as well as each other). The final romance scene just confirmed this for me. Garrus is so adorkably awkward and even though I wish we could’ve heard and seen more, I thought the head bump was rather touching. And I get the feeling that the gesture means a lot in turian culture.
 
So yeah, ME2 converted me from a Garrus fan to a Garrus fangirl. And what adds to their romance for me is that my own evolution of feelings about Garrus parallel my Shep’s in so many ways, and I didn’t realize it until recently.

Thought this link might be worth including on the OP.

Antique Stores

Stay classy, Garrus.

QFT, though with the added caveat that in ME1, he felt like the student/little brother.  And I was squidgy about romancing him at first because of that. 

But two years can apparently change a man a great deal.  He's not Shep's student any more, he's her equal.  he takes your orders because he wants to.

I am actually one of the few weird people who was drawn to Garrus because I thought he looked awesome and not for his personality. Yes, that's right. I found turians physically appealing right off the bat, but it was idle. I never even seriously considered it beyond some subconscious or gut level because I figured A) I was part of an extreme weird minority and B) Bioware would never ever do such a thing. It never even crossed my mind to point out I liked Garrus. I just assumed people would say I was nuts. Then I get on the forums and lo and behold, a whole nest of people really dig Garrus. I still didn't think they would give it to us so I latched onto Thane and kept thinking of Garrus as merely "cool." It wasn't until they officially revealed Garrus as an LI that I delurked and acknowledged to myself what I had been thinking for two years...

Actually when I started my very first ME1 game, I was like whoa Nihlus is HAWT! then he died and i was :crying:
Then there was Garrus but he was off limits so I went for Kaidan but accidentally Virmired him in my complete ME-n00bness....so I started all over and Shayenne was born...Kaidanite all over. Then I played ME2 with her and stayed faithful to Kaidan. Then there was Lana, romancing Thane - Yes, OMG he is awesome - and now there is Shanna just for Garrus.

And to give a little update....finally making progress on the Jacob convos. He actually just pushed Lana away, told her to hang on Thane or Garrus. Trying to check all the other dialogue options given, of course Frapsing everything for later review and stuff.

The antique store convo is awesome. It's one of my favorite Garrus lines in the game ..... :D:D:D:D:D actually was my facebook update a few days ago.

J4N3, if Jacob proves to be too much, you will be remembered fondly and you're sacrifice will not be forgotten...In short, thanks.

If someone told me before ME2 that I would go gaga over the 2 alien LIs and not the human one, I would've lol'd.  But there ya go!

I may be late to the party, but the power of Garrus has compelled me to find other turians appealing, as well.  I'm finishing up my first  ME1 playthrough since ME2 and I can't help but slightly crush over characters like Li and Lorik Qui'in.  And I never looked twice at them before.  Posted Image

I thought they were cool-looking. Didn't actually think "hawt" at Nihlus or any other turian. And now that we know more about turians, how ODD does Saren look?



Now that Garrus is Meg's guy, though... looking at them entirely differently.

Saren is not my type. He looks weird and his voice is weird too but Nihlus.....that voice, that "aura" RAWR!
I think, it's that animalistic instinct, isnt it?

Don't tell Garrus, but I also realized recently that Sidonis has very lovely eyes.
