Reminds me of how I met Tali in MS2 and she gave me that shocking reaction of being disappointed to see me alive, which is essentially "better you stay dead and hero than be alive and with Cerberus" (the kind of reaction I started to get used to later in the game). It gave me the impression that she didn't want to serve under my command because she's got a name now, and she's so important now, and she's the officer in charge. She was throwing a lot of orders at me, too.
I'm guessing that you didn't give her that Geth data for her Pilgrimage gift in the first game? Cause I didn't get that reaction from her AT ALL in any of my ME2 playthroughs.
(or maybe you went with the Renegade dialogue options and made a complete ass out of yourself to her and the other Quarians)
I don't know what my defaut Shepard did in MS1 regarding Tali.
I don't remember well, but I think it was in response to my request for her to join me. She says something like, sorry, Shepard, I'm still trying to take in the fact that you're alive and with Cerberus. She says that in the tone that suggests that me being alive and with Cerberus is some kind of rare, highly contageous disease, and she wouldn't touch me with a pole. I remember thinking, very well, Tali, take you time. But by the time you manage to grasp the concept of me being alive, I might be dead all over again.
It wasn't like "die, zombie, die," but I didn't hear any happiness about me being alive either. Not after my new allegiance was revealed.
Now I think of it, Garrus was the only one who didn't lecture me about being alive and with Cerberus. And that gives me a very unpleasant suspicion that all that disappointment my teammates show in me has nothing to do with Cerberus or with the two years of my absense whatsover, but rather has something to do with the fact that they're not supposed to be joining me in MS2, and they need a valid excuse to refuse me...in the face of galactic threat. Maybe that's why their reasoning sounded so cold and weak, and they all seemed like lesser persons for it.
Not a single one of them saying, "Commander, I knew that not even death could stop you, I didn't believe in those death rumours and I never stopped hoping, I don't care who Cerberus is, all that it matters they brought you back, and I'd gladly work with you again, so let's kick the Collectors' ass." And that's after Shepard is the last to leave the ship, ensuring their survival.
Garrus does say something to that effect, though...later and in passing.
