Want me to write a more cruel/ruthless one? Cause I've got a scene in my mind (can actually see Vega doing something like that, especially if he likes/is attracted to Shepard). But I'm really uncertain about writing it, might destroy or somehow spit on the image of Vega we've got so far.


Something flirty? Oh god yes, with the fire of a thousand burning, exploding suns YES! Something where he's cruel as in mean? That might be a bit too out of character for him. From the few lines of conversation I read from the beta leaks Vega definitely struck me as someone not afraid to be flirtatious with Shepard, whether he initiates it or not that could be up to you (though it's probably Shep making the firsts moves in-game per usual...cept for Anders which is why I Posted Image him so)

Sorry if I'm a bit too eager for the steamy/fluffy stuff, very much missing my own marine atm Posted Image Reading naughty fanfics tends to help keep my mind off things...


DO IT DO IT DO IT!

Btw LittleNikki I know it may sound weird, as we don't know each other and your marine probably doesn't need it but I'll say prayers that your Marine comes home! Also thank your Marine for me for protecting the country! (yes I'm Canadian but I love all aspects of Military equally!) Keep strong! <3

Hence why I said I was uncertain about writing it. Concept was - they had a newbie, old friend of Vega's mate a school chum? Never figured that out. Newbie is a turncoat. Shepard got Injured and in the sickbay. The Turncoat, thinking he was save, was tossed into the brig and Vega decided to have a little 'chat' with him.
Basically he was gonna saying 'If you turn on her. On ANYONE on this crew, then you turn on me!'

@KPiGame It doesn't sound weird at all, and I will be sure to pass along the message! I know he appreciates it, and luckily he's still in the states for now safe and sound.

@Aurora Oooh that sounds promising! I can definitely see Vega turning all macho protective over Shepard, romanced or not. Would love to read what you come up with!

And done... finally I finished this chapter: Under Better Circumstances

A little blurb from it:
  In the flick of a switch, the light near the door came on and revealed a burly man standing with a large bottle of tequila in his hand. Lieutenant James Vega quietly closed the door and directed his attention to the woman groggily staring at him. "Feliz Navidad, Commander… Thought you could use some company," he smiled, wholeheartedly.
  "You know you shouldn't be here, James. Especially with that bottle," Nevada grumbled, stirring away from her sheets and bringing her legs to dangle at the edge of her mattress.
  "I shouldn't be calling you Commander either but I still do."
  "You'll be in a world of trouble if anyone finds out."
  "No one will. I have some compadres working the rounds tonight. We're in the clear until sunrise," he added,  walking over to her holiday tree and plugging in the lights. The multicolored bulbs presented a comforting glow to the room, their ambient hues dressing the walls with a cheerful shine. He grabbed two glasses from the counter and placed them alongside the tequila bottle on her nightstand. Pulling away the chair from her nearby desk, he placed it next to her bed and took a seat, "Plus, no one should spend Christmas alone."
  Trying to make sense of his after hours intrusion, she asked, "What if I wanted to be alone?"
  "No one likes being alone… including you, Shepard… and especially on the holidays."
  "How would you know?"
  "I think I know you well enough by now," he smiled, recollecting their time spent since they first encountered each other on Omega.
  Her eyes shied away, "Fine, but what if I don't like to celebrate Christmas?"
  "Why wouldn't you?"
  "Too much of a distraction, duty always comes first," she commanded, her authoritative disposition still reverberating in her voice.  
  Pouring a good portion of tequila into each glass, James added a splash more into his before mentioning, "But you're not on duty right now."
  "Thanks for reminding me about my 'voluntary' decommission," she sneered. Hunched over her knees, the mental impression of the heavy military-grade cuffs plagued her thoughts. Even with her shackles gone, she could feel their haunting presence.
  "How about this… we set everything aside and just drink for the sake of it?" he asked, handing her a filled glass.
  "I can handle that," she took the glass and held it up, "Cheers."
  "Salud," Vega purred, letting his Spanish accent rumble.

So it seems the gays have really latched onto Vega. I assume he's confirmed as gay or both?


I love when people call us homosexual men "the gays". Sounds so coldly distant and artificially respectful. Makes me smile.

The two descriptors you used don't sound positive, yet it makes you smile? Well I'm glad of that but I certainly didn't mean anything offensive by it.

Meh. I have plenty of friends who use the term "the gays," I don't think they really mean it in an offensive manner.

Also: *Drool*@ That James pic.

^Of course those who say "the gays" don't mean anything offensive by it. That's my point. It's a way to avoid using terms like f@gs. But I can't help but think they'd rather use offensive words instead of the euphemistic "the gays". That's why I said it sounded artificially respectful.

Nah, Negam, it depends of the tone. Like there are "gays" and "gaaayz". Ok, It's dificult to do it justice by writing.
Simply, If you hear a spite, then you're right. If you don't then people just call you like they think, they should. It wasn't meant to be spiteful by itself.
And Vega is spanish.

Yay for Tuesdays off so I get to catch up on all my fanfic readings!

Anyways, I really enjoyed your snippet you posted on the last page, can't wait to see what happens next!

Also I love the idea of protective Vega! I could see him being really protective of Shepard. From what I have read from your other fanfic's and dialogues I think it would turn out great if you chose to write it. ^_^

@ littlenikki - I just wanted to mirror KPiGame's sentiment and say thank you to your husband and the marines for everything they do! I am Canadian also but I feel it should be said regardless!

@Rebel - AMG THAT CHAPTER!! <3<3 That was my favorite chapter yet! d'aww your Vega & Shepard are so adorable! Poor Vega always getting played by Shepard... I think one chapter Vega should play Nevada! :P

Ohhh Rivalry! Let me guess between Kaidan and Vega? If that happens I might just faint! Kaidan & Vega fighting over her sounds to good to be true! :D<3

I want Bioware to do something like that if a faithful Shepard in ME2 decided to flirt and move on with Vega in ME3!

You guessed correctly. Two men who idolize Shepard vying for her affection... one is bound to get hit. XD And there will be a lot more of Shepard playing Vega but he'll get his reward.

Yay! for one of them getting hit!!! :D Vega and Kaidan fighting over Shepard... Hawt! So who throws the first punch? My guess is Vega after something Kaidan says. :P

QFT. And Vega doesn't seem like the kind of guy to squabble with a superior officer over some chick, either. Even if it is Shepard. So the whole jealousy schtick is completely lost on me.

Annnnyway! I updated In the Interim for anyone who's keeping up with it! I really appreciate the feedback, guys. I'm glad to know you're enjoying it. (:

Don't see Vega as the type based off the leak either though =/

@Calla S : Same

Kaidan's too laid back to throw a fit about Shep being with someone else. Heck I don't even see him as the type to try to get digs in either. He might distance himself somewhat but that would be the end of it.

I can picture Kaidan having a few choice words with Vega.

Though I have a hard time picturing him throwing the first punch unless he was defending Shepards honor. However even that is a little bit farfetched because of his experience in BAat and what he did to Vyrnnus having such a profound effect on him.
