I finally stumped it outright. Sunflash the Mace from the Redwall Series. And now I will stop spamming the board.



So to contribute to something on topic. I like that description someone gave earlier of Garrus as a "simple man with simple needs" and now A Simple Kind of Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd is playing in my head. This is one reason I don't begrudge him his terrible shirt in the romance scene. I almost find it even more endearing. That's probably about the best shirt he had. A lot of his others having probably been washed thin and have spaghetti stains on them. That's what I think anyway. Wouldn't surprise me if he flat out bought what he was wearing just for that. He did buy wine somewhere. I'd really like to see that scene, by the way. Exactly when and wear he bought that wine. I think it would have been funny. Sounds like something for an enterprising fic writer.

Holy crap...this thing is eerie.


I think it adapts to the player too.  For instance, I noticed it asks me "does your character appear in space" a lot sooner than it did before I used Ransom.  Luckily, I didn't use anymore space characters.

oh, yes please, I wanna see....just for the Lulz! I take it, the mod doesn't come with a voice mod as well, hu? dammit, just imagine that *lolsies* 


That's the only bad thing about it -- Mordin technically is a piece of armor, so it sounds like Shepard's always wearing a breather helmet. It's not really a problem, though. Especially when it generates lulz such as this. I'm going for Mordin/Thane too. Then Shordin can call himself Thane's siha-larian.

Yay for bad puns.

Simple Man was exactly the song I had in mind. Love Lynyrd Skynyrd.  *dreams*

Yeah, I do think he's just a simple guy, perfectionist at the things that matter to him, like his sniper rifle, 'calibrating' xD doing good deed. Everything else just is not as important and I bet he was like "shyt shyt shyt" over his clothes, not knowing what to wear. Suddenly, all of them didn't seem to be good enough for going to the commander .

Hah, I stumped it! I used Ransom from the CS Lewis Space Trilogy and it guessed Luke Skywalker. That might be cheating though, that story is old and obscure.


I remember that series!

On another note, I know I'm late the party, but here's some crazy story:

The Varren Princess

Garrus was walking through a short meadow, laughing at the butterflies flitting around his head when he spied a sweet little varren lying under a tree.

Garrus skipped over to see the dear thing and was clever to find that she was hurt! A sniper rifle had pierced her slow little toe and she whimpered humorously with the pain.

"My snarky little friend," Garrus said. "Let me help you!" He took out his Leatherman Multi-Purpose tool and pulled out the sniper rifle, as wisely as he could. The varren cried out and Garrus's heart ached, like a fox...except taller and with a different face. "You'll be all right," Garrus whispered. "I'll take care of you. I'll call you Shepard and you can live with me forever!"

Scooping Shepard up in his arms, Garrus carried her home and made a bed for her beside his own. For seven days and seven nights, Garrus nursed Shepard, cleaning her toe and feeding her Omni-tool-brand varren chow.

On the eighth night, Shepard climbed into bed with Garrus. She burrowed under the covers and sardonically headbumped Garrus's tail. It made Garrus giggle and he cuddled close to Shepard, stroking her brow and singing mysteriously to her.

They continued that way for a long time. Every day, Garrus hurried home so he could curl up with Shepard. It gave him a blue feeling whenever Shepard headbumped his tail.

Then one night, Shepard looked up at Garrus and said, "If you kiss me, I will become a cunning princess."

Garrus screamed dreamily, he was so surprised. How could a varren talk? He must have dropped off and dreamed it.

"You're not dreaming," Shepard said. "Kiss me."

"Don't tell anyone I screamed like that," Garrus said and kissed Shepard on her brow. The air swirled and suddenly, there stood a cunning princess! With a crown and everything!

"I'm Princess Shepard," she said. "I was cursed. It's a long story."

"Is it really you?" Garrus said.

"See?" Shepard said and showed Garrus the scar from the sniper rifle on her toe. Then she kissed Garrus and they tumbled up a creek and did a lot of very green things, some of them involving a pale wine.

"I love you," Shepard said when they were done. Garrus clasped her close and they lived together happily ever after on all the princess treasure Shepard had stashed away.

And if Shepard didn't know about Garrus's visits to the varren sanctuary, well, it wouldn't hurt her.

Mordin and Jack is brilliant Posted Image. Although there is one part where Jack looks like she's about to devour him (she's on top and she's baring her teeth...reminds me of Zombie!Garrus and Jacob, actually).

I also vote for the Miranda scene next!

@ Jackalope: Princess Shepard needs to have pink hair. Like Princess Cousland.

On a completely random note, I just managed to get "Sten approves +6" (!) from the conversation in Haven Posted Image And I didn't even fight him...

I didn't even have to do that...

It probably helped that he was already at "Friendly", but:

- I picked the joking response to his initial question about attacking the Archdemon from the rear.
- Then I said the purpose of the journey was to stop Loghain. When he asked why, I said his acting against us hampered us in dealing with the Blight.
- Sten asked why I feared Loghain, since his army was broken. I said that he'd managed to kill Duncan, implying that he was cunning and dangerous, but Sten seemed to understand it as revenge and said that it wouldn't help us.
- Then he said I didn't think things through, and I said that he should consider it as training. He said that there was a point where you had to stop training and take a plunge. I said I wouldn't fail, and he said "be careful, kadan".

Ended up sounding like he was worried for me, rather than a challenge Posted Image

You shoulda seen my tiny little elf mage tell him off. The animations suck, but I imagine she had her hands on her hips and glaring at up him.



I'm surprised he didn't laugh his ass off.



And because I'm horribly OT:

Just some random lines it came up with:



And then they headbumped each other all night long.




Well...sweet...



"I think this will help." And he headbumped Shepard several times.




Oh...I sense a theme...



"Nobody does that to my little Round Sniper Rifle," Garrus screamed. He grabbed an icicle and stabbed the snow varren through the claw. It fell down and Garrus kicked it apart until it was just a bunch of snow again.

"You saved me!" Shepard said and they shared an embrace in the snow before going in for hot chocolate.

The biotic amp lay in the yard until a blue child picked it up and took it home.




Blue child...meaning asari?



When Shepard came to, Garrus was holding her tail and looking light. "My love," Garrus said huskily, "I'm sorry for the round shock. I've been shipwrecked on an old island for the last ten years, living like the turian that swallowed the bullet.. I was only rescued last week." He paused. "I lost my jaw in the wreck. Can you still love me?"

Shepard could hardly believe her Garrus had returned. "I will always love you, jaw or no jaw. Besides, you can cover it up with a sniper rifle."




Actually...that's pretty close to the storyline.



But tonight everyone was masked. Shepard peered bravely through the crowd, trying to guess which guest was Garrus. There, she thought, the man over by the sniper rifle, the heavy one with the varren mask. It had to be Garrus. No one else could look so wide, even in a varren mask.




Too many dextro-donuts.

The phrase "I love you"... Something Garrus would say or not? I kinda vote not just because ME is so stingy with them. I mean if any Thane doesn't say that, it'd be kind of weird. What do you guys think?

I think neither Shepard nor Garrus are the types to say much about things like that. But they wouldn't need to anyway.

I don't know... Somehow I never imagined Garrus to say that. I know Kaidan and Jacob say it if you romance them (Kaidan had reason, but Jacob was shooting the gun when Shepard rejects him the first time). But usually what I gather from guys in real life that they like to say "I love you" in an indirect way more than directly.

I think Jacob cheapened the value of "I love you". :P

I think Garrus might eventually say it, but it would take a LOT for him to say it. The thing is, if he ever did say it, you know it would be so much more meaningful than something like the Jacob moment.

I get the feeling Garrus definitely isn't the type to throw around those words!

That's kinda what I think too kglaser. I think it could mean a lot if saved for way close to the end of ME3. Anybody here remember the Jaheira romance from Baldur's Gate? She's real no-nonsense and not even somewhat sentimental and her romance has this LONG, LONG progression over the game and expansion pack. The other romances have huge endings-marriage, kids, etc. etc. But her ending is just that you finally get that phrase out of her. The same is true with the drow Viconia. It's wonderfully effective. I still don't know if it would work here. It has tremendous potential to be done wrong so it might be safer to avoid for fear of that. I would hate for them to screw that up and I don't think it is needed or anything.

Yes Raga, if they screw it up, I will NOT be pleased. Unnecessarily emo Garrus = ugh. :P

And sorry about the double post...couldn't edit or figure out how to get a picture up by way of apology (although happily I did figure how to get an awesome Garrus fan art pic as my phone background--yaay!!))

Yay, beat it! Used Hawk from Simon R Greens 'Hawk & Fisher series Posted Image
