Evelinessa, I agree with everything you said about Garrus' romance. I'm not sure why some people don't think he's serious about their relationship, although I admit that Shepard can be played that way (there were a few lines I won't choose because I don't like the sound of them). But technically, all of the romances can be played both ways from Shepard's point of view. Garrus' romance is one of the best in my opinion, and it's my personal favorite.

Also, I think he touches her arm with the back of his hand rather than grabbing it? That's what it looked like to me, at least. It's sweet that he doesn't want to scratch her with those talons, even if he is wearing gloves. :)


hmm, I picked all paragon responses and that's what she said for me. I haven't seen all the romance scenes yet ( I want to do them in game rather then watch them on youtube) so I can't compare it to others but I thought it was very good. The scene is kinda funny and sweet all at the same time. I just love how it ends. I have high hopes with what they'll do with it in ME3. It really means alot when a badass confident guy gets all nervous like that over just one human. It really shows that he cares for her. Plus if you reject him during the final scene(I haven't done this I watched it on youtube) he really looks hurt. He acts like it doesn't bother him and he says that he's still there if you need him but you can tell that it really hurt him. But yeah I get a little upset when people think it wasn't serious.

I'll watch the romance scene again and see what he does. Also, I just want to say that I love the face Garrus makes if you use the paragon interupt during the scene. I think it's cute.

Also, I need help. I just finished recruiting Garrus on my second playthrough and I think I missed the dialogue where he talks about  joining C-Sec/Spectre Training depending on ME1. Does he say it on Omega because I'm pretty sure I picked all the dialogue choices and he never said it. I had no problems with this on my first playthrough. So did I miss it?

He mentions it very quickly but it is not a conversation, no. You ask him what he's doing on omega or something. The conversation where he says whether he joined CSec or not is on the normandy.

Quote every Evelinessa word.Is love,not sex.Or not only sex!With Mordin,if i remember right,she said:"Garrus is important for me".I don't think she would risk an allergic reaction, including serious, just for a night of sex.

I too, get a little confused when people think it is just a one night stand. Trust me, his behaviour suggests the very opposite, he says 'there is no one I respect more in the galaxy than you Shepard, so yeah, why not?'

And when people say Garrus is an FWB? I think Shepard would have chosen something a little closer to home with an FWB. Damn it, he is loads more than that.



@ Evelinessa, just a tidbit of info, your quote about Garrus and humans was slightly out of context, the quote is. 'I'm not going to pretend that I don't have a fetish for humans. But it isn't about that. It's about us.'

So Garrus does have a lil thing for humans, but that isn't why he's with Shepard, he's just using those darn double negatives to confuse us! :)

Yeah... that pic proves he has no "fetish" to begin with.

Ok, thank you. I wish he said more about it though.

Yes, I agree. I had to watch Mordin's sex advice on youtube though because I triggered the dialogue too early and he thought I was interested in him. I think it's very funny and shows that Shepard really cares about Garrus.

What I got from that is he doesn't think humans are physically attractive but he wants a relationship with Shepard. A human. The relationship isn't about physical attraction but based on trust and friendship. Usually one night stands would just be about looks I think but the Garrus romance doesn't really have that physical attraction...at least not at first. So the romance does mean alot. I don't know. Does anyone think that he thinks Shepard is attractive? At least later on?

I think he grows to see her as attractive. And ditto for Shep.

I don't think there's ever going to be a physical attraction, but more an attraction to the emotions attached to their certain physical characteristics--Garrus might grow to find Shepard's breasts attractive, for example, because he knows that to humans (and asari) breasts are sexual things that are usually reserved for lovers.

In the same way, Shepard might come to appreciate his fringe, or his waist. ;)

Oh, I dunno.... there are certain things about a turian that could be considered attractive for humans. The small waist, broad shoulders and muscular legs for instance. Likewise, he could find hair and her waist attractive, and maybe her legs.

Hmm...I see their history begin with a strong sexual component,Then it evolves into something deeper.If it starts with sex, it means attraction, in my opinion :)

Well, it might be a matter of taste. I know that when I saw a turian for the first time, I sure didn't find Nihlus attractive. I certainly didn't find him repulsive or anything...but nothing about him or any turian I met later did anything for me in terms of attraction. Only when I started romancing Garrus did I come to appreciate turian anatomy.



But I know people who have found turians very nice to look at from the beginning. So it probably is more reliant on each individual Shepard.

If a human - us - can find a turian attractive, more than likely, they can find us attractive. Granted it's definitely not a pairing we've seen before on our various shepard spying on random people encounters, but I assume that the rarity might be mentioned in ME3.

Meghan might actually punch al-Jilani at that point.

... If she really tried to pull a card like that, I think every all garrus femsheps would punch her. That should be the neutral option. the renegade one should be to shoot her in the foot, like Conrad. :)

Yep, you're right, just checked it, my bad Posted Image
If Al-Jilani started slandering Garrus or my femshep's relationship with him, then I would totally take her down. No one insults Garrus... Posted Image On that note, here's another joke: 'C-Sec labels anyone attacking or insulting Garrus Vakarian as a Code 45-11... a suicide.' - Take heed Al-Jilani...

What I always found appealing about turians, apart from the voices, was their overall build.  They have this graceful, predatory strength.  They just plain look awesome.  And the funny thing is that they weren't designed to appeal to people physically, yet Garrus is a memetic sex god ^_^

I'm currently Adepting through Insanity--I know Adept isn't the most popular class for how fragile and squaddie-dependent it can be, but I love biotics and really like using the squad as a whole instead of only Shep.  Garrus and his Area Overload consistently save my ass--when I remember to keep him in cover and alive <_<  He does have a nasty habit of biting off more than he can chew.  Silly turian,

*stops lurking*

Hello.

Just wanted to say hi and say that Garrus has always been my favourite companion. I loved the romance, although I wish there would've been more dialogue. Apart from Tali and Joker, Garrus is the only one on Normandy who has actually known Shepard the longest so I would've liked some more dialogue about what happened after Shepard's death etc. But, I'm hoping, that will come in ME3.

What I loved about the romance was just the feeling of complete trust and respect for each other.

Also, it was hilarious to see confident Garrus get nervous and the "popping the heat sink" line just made me laugh. Anyway, I'm rambling. Carry on with your Garrus discussions :D

I agree, the first time I watched Garrus and other turians walking around in ME1 I was stunned by how graceful and lethal it seemed.

Apologies for taking so long to reply. Yunaito, thank you for the welcome.

My question about what decisions Garrus would have made had he been in charge of the Suicide Mission stems from curiosity when he tells Shepard how he commanded a squad on Omega. How would he have handled each recruitment, each loyalty mission?

It would seem he leans towards Renegade decisions, and yet you can hear his support for the other side in certain situations. Garrus is something of a complex individual, maturing in a way that cannot be explained without referring to Joker's description.
