Welp, I romanced Garrus and have a huge lady boner for him

but I'm pretty sure Garrus nudity in the context of a romance scene would make me want to bury my head in the sand. You just can't pull off a bow-chicka-wow slow tilt camera shot of sexy sexy carapace and hope to be taken seriously, and I really don't want the Garrus relationship to turn into a big joke of the game.
I hear you , I do want it to be presented properly and I defiantly don't want a bow-chicka-wow-wow moment to happen

the garrus/femshep romance should never be like that.
Okay, maybe YOU can pull off a tasteful scene in your head, but thinking on the way they directed the Jacob and Miranda scenes makes me really uncomfortable at the prospect.
Hopefully what that Jacob romance taught them was that femshep behaving like a sex starved cougar is not what we want to see. The whole tone of it was just ...ugh...Really, can't even watch it on youtube without going "why on EARTH do you think we wanted our femsheps to ACT like that!?"
The only context I can see it working is a non-sexed-up shot of Garrus suiting up. Would fulfil science curiousity and give those of us interested in seeing such a thing something to grin about. Fanservice that doesn't scream "HERE'S YOUR FANSERVICE, COME AND GET IT LADIES ;-* ."
see even that I would be happy with. I forgot to add that I would also be perfectly happy with a shot of him patching himself up after a mission. That could work.
Of course at this point the discussion is purely academic. I seriously doubt they're at a point in their development where they could comfortably change the way such a scene will be done. Whether that means topless Garrus or not remains to be seen.
I do hope it’s good though. The end of ME2 was just the beginning of their romantic relationship, I am excited but anxious to see what they have come up with.
