Romeo was an idiot who fell in love with the concept of love, and not the person he was supposedly falling in love with. That would be the thing to turn Tali off, I think. She seems more like the "love them for them" kinda girl. I doubt Romeo and Juliet's romance would entertain her at all.

You must have written an essay about how Romeo and Juliet was about the folly of youthful romance versus the tragedy of love.

Well, that's the essay I wrote, at least.

I don'rt know, Kasumi was able to procure alot of books in hard copy

She did admit they were quite expensive. Takes up space, too. Wonder if Tali would take the luxury, but in my personal image of her, she wouldn't.

I dont think she would either. Growing up on the Migrant Fleet, where resources are scarce, she would feel guilty about having them.

i think tali would enjoy romeo & juliet

I respect Tali too much to think she'd fall for the mushy crap that is Romeo and Juliet.

I don't think she would.

This is true,   through  most of us when we are young all fall in love with the concept of love. This may be true of Tali as well through it may evolve as all things do with time.

Well in Kasumi's case it was rare/ old books wheren't they? I'm sure they still have the cheaper paperback reprints all over.

This has a horrible OP, I understand that some people were anxious to get the new thread up themselves, but leave it to the people who are closest to the OP's or who have been OP's.



Other than that, being an oldie of the Tali threads, I hope you folks keep this as on-topic as possible. Good luck!

Yeah!

Still...

Shepard had better never leave her side again...

He better not take his EYES off her since there's about a hundred-thousand Talimancers ready to take his place!*

I do think every quarian tries to sneak in that one luxury, that one object that's a waste of resources, waste of space. Just don't think it would be books for Tali. A hanar plushie.

Nah, just kidding.

But really. Hanar plushie.

I may have written a thing or two on it. Romeo was an idiot. Juliet was a ****, and both families were utter idiots who hated eachother for no discernable reason. How this play became as popular as it did is beyond me. The plot is like something of a bad Romance Drama film. Definately not the kind of thing I can see Tali enjoying. She seems more sophisticated than that. I bet she'd love a movie like Titanic. Two people meet on a ship, have a wild time together... and it ends with the man dying...

Or the original little mermaid book, and how humans should stay with humans, and merpeople with merpeople, and how a romance between the two would be foolish, and end in tragedy.

Are you kidding? This is the best OP the Tali threads have ever had. It is almost as grand is that OP someone did for the Grunt thread.

You'd think keeping the discussion on topic would be easy if the topic is Tali.

 With a smile, Shepard pulled the trigger.  With a pistol, it's semiautomatic action would have required quite a bit of finger work in order to facilitate the amount of damage he unleashed.  But Shepard had come prepared with an assault rifle, which he used to deliver a devestating volley.  The first bullets crashed through the Asari hostage's body, her blood quickly spilling upon the floor.  Her daughter's screams, piercing as they were, fell short alongside the tremendous roar Wrex gave forth as those bullets passed through, striking him.  

Krogan physiology was built to be resilient, but that gave him little comfort as nearly three dozen rounds impacted against his unshielded body.  Orange blood mixing with the Asari mother's, the Krogan Warlord dropped to his knees, his pistol falling to the ground as his body lost contact with his hands.

Staring death in the face, Wrex's scarred visage broke into a grin.  "Never thought you had it in you."  He growled, the last words slurring together as he swayed, before falling onto his side.  A few short breaths fought forth from his lungs, before they too stopped working.  He was dead.

Letting a molten heat sink drop to the floor, Shepard made his way over to Krogan corpse.  Kneeling before him, the human took a small vial from Wrex's pocket.  Looking at the murky liquid within, Shepard's red-eyed gaze narrowed.  He spoke in a murmur, his words lost in the painful sobs of the asari child.

"I made a promise, Tali.  Now I can keep it."

Also: considering how bad standard rations are, one could argue that Tali gets the better end of the deal for foodstuffs on the Normandy.

Dining In

I think everything is right. Hope Garrus was right, Shepard thought to himself. He looked around the cabin. Cleaned and sterilized. Check. Lighting lowered for a more intimate atmosphere. Check. He looked over at the two plates.

Both were sealed in a sterilized bubble. Straight from a restaurant on the Citadel. After checking over some of the food tube Tali seemed to prefer, Shepard had ordered their equivalents from a quality turian restaurant. Then sterilized and sealed before delivery to the ship. He hoped it worked.

"Decontamination Complete."

Shepard looked up as Tali entered their cabin. With Ken and Gabby still off ship on leave, he knew she would be tired. He hoped his surprise would put a smile on her face.

"Hey beautiful," he said to his quarian as the commander stood to greet her. "Long day?"

Tali nodded tiredly as she walked further into the cabin. She stopped, when she saw the settings. "John?"

He smiled. "I figured you could use a good meal. And, it's been a while since we had a chance to just relax together."

Glance softening, her gaze turned warm. "That sounds nice. Let me get out of this suit, and I'll join you." She headed to the wardrobe and pulled a garment out. As she passed on her way to the bathroom, she caressed her commander on the shoulder.

He chuckled; ever since Mordin had confirmed her adaption to both himself and their cabin, Tali almost always got out of her suit as fast as possible. Not that he blamed her.

Hearing the door open, he looked up. And stared. The lithe engineer had opted to wear the white dress shirt that came with the suit he wore on Bekenstein. And, from what he could tell, nothing else.

Shepard could feel his face flushing, and had to resist the urge to adjust himself. For all the times he had seen her dress like this - it seemed his shirts were her preferred clothing outside of her suit - it never failed to stir his passions and warm his heart.

"See something you like, Captain?" She purred out as she sauntered closer.

"Only you," he answered. He visibly fought with himself to return his gaze to her eyes where it had been locked on her smooth legs. He held out a hand.

"Join me for dinner, miss Vas Normandy?"

She took his hand and let her captain lead her to the couch. She sat, and he joined her on the couch. With as much flair as he could, he opened both of the trays, revealing the food. Her reflective eyes widened.

"John?"

He smiled. "I pulled a couple of strings. I hope you like it Tali."

With a smile of her own, she grabbed a utensil and grabbed a bite of the food. Her eyes widened. After swallowing, she grabbed a larger bite before turning to him.

"This tastes even better than the rations I normally eat!"

"Glad you like it," Shepard replied, digging in to his own meal.

Due to the sterilization, it was a little bland, but still better than what Gardner could normally produce. They ate in companionable silence, broken only by Tali's occasional exclamation of delight in her meal. When they were finished, Shepard took the plates and took them to the disposal in the restroom.

Returning to the main room, he found Tali laid out in the bed, curled around one of the pillows. Her eyes watched him, a predatory gleam in her eyes as he joined her on the bed.

"What now, John?" she asked "However can I thank you for such a wonderful meal?"

The human smiled softly at her. "I think first, you need a massage," he answered as he reached for one of the legs that had gotten his attention earlier. As he began to rub, Tali hmm'd her pleasure as he worked over her calf. As he grasped a foot and began needing it gently, he smirked.

"And after this," he said, warmth and desire in his voice, "dessert."
