I imagine Kasumi would be chatty with the other crew members even if they weren't the types to talk much. So I could picture her catching garrus in his lunch break or something (if that ever happens what with the endless calibrations) to chat. I also think she can gather lots of information just from harmless small talk which is why she said "turians are hard to read". She kind of cold reads them I think. So she could have casually dropped shepard into the conversation just to see what his reaction would be. Maybe spotted a little glimmer in his eye, or an embarrassed chuckle, who knows.

As for her “lots of people want to see you two together” comment, I have a feeling the crew members were shipping them the most. They’re best friends and that must be so endearing for onlookers. Plus the “will they won’t they” aspect of it must make for great gossip.  But really I think that comment was just a nod to us garrus shippers Posted Image

Heh, somehow I expect Shepard and Garrus to be surprised that everybody knows about their relationship.. so much for keeping secrets.

Shepard: How do you people know about me and Garrus?
Kasumi: You take him with you on every single mission. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out.
Shepard: :T

Not on every single one! I didn' take him on Mordin's recruitment mission, although I was curious if he'd actually get sick :P
Now I'm tempted to play Kasumi DLC, she seems like a fun character to have around.

As for Liara, maybe that's how she got her intel: (from http://amiko16.deviantart.com)

She's the Mass Effect equivalent of a Genki Girl.

*dies*  I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favroite arse anywhere.


Also, I think everyone expected it to happen eventually....  Shep and Garrus...  I mean, they're so damned close anyway. 

and that video!  lol, that mod always makes me happy.   

and soul..  if you take him on Mordin's mission, he just starts coughing and then Mording heals him. its kinda cute actually. I seriously cannot think of a missionthat I never took him on. Cept the ones that I didn't have him for.... thats really it though. He's always by my side. :D

After Garrus's recruitment mission, I always let him rest. Because I feel so bad when he always gets his face scarred. My mainshepard goes like: =OOOOOOOOOOOO My buddy =(

I always feel bad taking Garrus on Mordin's mission, but he handles it in typical Garrus fashion.

Plague running rampant in the slums that kills turians? "If you need me, I'm not going to let a cough keep me back."

Challenge accepted.

Huh, I might end up doing the same next time.

Shepard: Garrus, I'm so sorry for dragging you into this! If only Miranda and Jacob weren't hospitalised and could go with me instead...
Miranda & Jacob: But we aren't...
Shepard: *SHEPARD PUNCH*
Shepard: As I was saying... :bandit:

haha, soulsweeper, your avatar has the same colour hair as me. Wish I could get Hawke's hair modded like that.

I just love the line Garrus says on Mordin's RM. 'Is it me or is it getting hot in here? *Coughs* Ah, that is probably a bad sign.'

But the way he just shrugs it all off and continues to kick ass is just typical Garrus badass style.

Woah that is so weird... I was just playing through Zaeeds LM and I saw Garrus chillin over there and I thought, "Wow I totally need to get a screen shot of that he looks so cute ;D" Then I logged onto the forums to ask if anyone could get me a screeny and there it is top of the page lol.

I only said there was nothing in the game to contradict it. That's a long way off from claiming something is canon. And in the long history that I planned out for my MainShep and Saren, I don't think he acts out of character at all.


But there is plenty in the game to contradict it, unless I'm imagining all of those times Saren talks smack about humans.  His opinions throughout "Revelation" regarding humans' galactic standing and their readiness to join the Spectres.  Canon: Saren dislikes humans.  A lot.  Canon: Shepard killed Saren, whether through talking him into suicide or firing the killing shot him/herself.  It makes no sense.  As I have already stated, there is nothing wrong with nonsensical pairings.  The thing that makes me (and some other fans as well) go aldkfa;lkdj is when people insist that their nonsense is, in fact, completely logical.

But I'm guessing that Saren x FemShep makes about as much sense to you as Saren x Nihlus does to me.

Nice try.  Bait: not taken. Posted Image

In the end, it's just fans having fun and using their imagination. Don't like the pairing, don't read the fanfiction or look at the fanart. Simple as that.

A bit difficult when almost every post concerning the guy is followed up with something about how your Shep's got a claim on him.  We get it.  In your 'verse, she regards Saren like my dog regards the fire hydrants when I walk him in town.  (That is a joke.)
Kim, what I was complaining about is, if it even applies to you, by no means restricted just to you.  It seems you think you do this stuff-- otherwise, you wouldn't have felt as though it was an attack--  and if you want to get superdefensive, whatever, it's up to you.  However, what I was talking about is something that happens a lot with various antagonists in almost every fandom I'm involved in, and it's extremely frustrating to see.  Somehow, these characters always seem to get undercut by a bunch of mushy. gooey feelings.  I've seen it most frequently with Shepards of both genders, possibly because of the allowance for fanboy/fangirl self-insertion fantasies, although it pervades any and all pairings.  I've even done it myself, although I tend to bury those works at the deepest end of my fic folder!
Again, my beef isn't the pairings themselves.  I've read excellent Saren/Shep fics and I've read utter drek.  It's the manipulation of a character to fit into a person's ideal fantasy that is obnoxious.
As for the age-old "don't like, don't read" thing...I could say "Don't like the opinions/critique, don't post it on the internet.  Simple as that."  I'm fully prepared for people to call my characterizations, fic, and so on out on any B.S.; are you?

Well, in the dialogue, Shepard doesn't outright 'persuade' Saren to kill himself. She just shows him that he is being indoctrinated, and when he realises that she is right. He does the noble thing and kills himself rather than be a puppet to Sovereign.

Saren doesn't approve of how humanity have earned a high place in the galaxy so quickly, and without working hard for it. Which I agree with, they can have a human council with a few decades of first contact with aliens.

But I get the impression that he wishes for turian dominance more than he hates humans. And that is just a nationalistic thing. Saren just takes it further than other turians.

His beef w/ humans in particular goes back to Shanxi.  I agree- he's definitely pro-turian, but he's got some extra bad blood with humanity in general.

It's more like a "somewhat cool war," really. All shifty glances and stuff, but no downright paranoia.  And yes, it's great fun, because watching two fleets brag about whose dicks dreadnoughts are bigger is always entertaining.

Anyway, I thought I'd share this with y'all because it reminds me of Garrus.  He is, after all, a dinosaur-cat-bird-with-turtle-and-insect-bits.

I never contribute anything meaningful to this thread.

@Mesina2: I admit, when I read it I thought it was Garrus who gave her all those scratches. *cough* And hence the protectiveness and...er...warning to Thane. xD
