Vega and Shepard will have the option to adopt a kitten. Maybe they'll name it "Ser Pounce A Lot."
Sorry, honey, but Sgt. Whiskers only have one name.

Actually, I'm not sure about that with Ashley. As much as she's family-oriented, she doesn't strike me as the type who necessarily wants kids herself. I can see her being into it if Shep wants to though (which Jakarta would). Miranda's a a similar open question; it seems perfectly reasonable to me that she'd be upset by not having the choice even if it's a choice she wasn't planning on taking. Marrkhi being an Earthborn who wants to save other kids from living her childhood would want to adopt, anyway. And Kuan Yin will definitely be having blue babies.
The guys on the other hand... pretty much all of them so far strike me as the fatherly type, though obviously Thane is unlikely to accumulate any more troubled spawn. Garrus would be an adorable dad to a couple of little adopted war orphans though XD

Yes but...have you seen the lower area of a turian? There's nothing there...I'm thinking too much about this
Like reptiles I'm guessing, peen is internal until needed. It was embarrassing when my crested gecko marched along the table, stuck his tail into the air and then stuck his hemepenes out in front of visitors (luckily they were in front of him so they couldn't see what was happening behind his hindlegs)
As for krogans, they're probably hung like gorillas, which means Shepard (of either gender) is going to be very very disappointed.

question, what type of dialogue would you all like to see the VS use beginning a romance with them as a Shepard of the s/s? Me, i would like the VS to express some sense of shock at the idea at first.
how shocked?
mine will just ask me if i meant what i said on craigslist.

Oh, I don't mind characters hitting on the protagonist. What I do object to is the Everyone Wants You Syndrome ME2 suffered from to such an incredulous degree.
Of course, if the plan is to avoid triggering foaming-at-the-mouth whining via having it entirely player induced, I'd consider that a mission which is doomed from the start.
I recall something someone said on another forum - "It amazes me that so many people were tricked into having sex with Zevran, as if 'massages learned in the finest (forget name of place) **** houses' can ever be meant in an innocent manner"

It's almost amusing to me that some people still harbor the illusion that only straight males play video-games. I hope BioWare continues to break barriers and keep its progressive attitude.
I've been having an argument with one of these people in another thread. He keeps on bleating on about Bioware 'perverting' straight characters to appease yaoi fangirls.

Shock? Maybe by the revelation Shep is gay while they were thinking otherwise. Nothing else, no nonsense like: "I'm a 30 years old man/woman but I've never ever thought about sleeping with the same-sex before meeting you Shep, you're such a Mary Sue/Gary Stu you've made me Shepsexual!"...draken-heart wrote...

Ash: I had to deal with the pain of missing you for two years and then you just show out of nowhere and of all things with Cerberus. I had no idea what to expect or if it was really even you. I didn't want to get my hopes up only to be crushed again. I...I couldn't take losing you again.
Shep: Hmm, that sounds like more than friendly concern. Perhaps..
Ash: Uh, what I meant was ah, um. Now I am making a fool of myself. I...
Shep: (Shepard interrupt) No you're not. You meant what you said Chief. You care about me and I care about you. That is all that matters.
(Shep hugs Ash and goes in for the kiss)
Joker (Intercom): Sorry if I am interrupting anything but Admiral Hackett has an urgent incoming call. You can take it in the debriefing room.

Preferably Shepard will have to make the first move.
Coming onto my Shep first...I don't see that ending well for the VS. He doesn't like them enough as is. No need to add unwanted affections ontop of that.
Though preferably Shep makes the first move and they're a bit taken back.

DAMMIT JOKER
Boxblocker extraordinaire, that ass. He's damn lucky he's such a good pilot.
@Demonique: Really? Did you remind said person that Hitler was a homophobe and killed millions of queer folk in his gas chambers too? (Not that I'm comparing anti s/s folks to Hitler. The only people I compare to Hitler are people like... Stalin and Pol Pot, who, y'know, actually achieved the same level of evil. I find it fairly insulting to their victims to equate them with anything short of that. I just think it's a particularly amusing accusation for anyone on the anti-s/s side to make. As a rule you don't get much further from Hitler than agitating for diversity and inclusiveness, queer inclusiveness not least on the list.)
I can see the VS being "shocked" but only in a "... wow, it's two years later and we had that stupid fight on Horizon and you're still into me...?" sort of way. If they never tried their luck with Shep in ME1, that they never thought they had a chance would be a reasonable explanation (though not my preferred choice, since it is a bit Shep-worshippy), and if that's the explanation, it'd make sense for it to still hold true in ME3.
I wouldn't want anything that could be interpreted as WHOA YOU'RE GAY I NEVER THOUGHT YOU OF ALL PEOPLE COULD BE ONE OF THOSE FOLKS. I mean, even in the most remote way. And you gotta admit it would be pretty easy to imply that if the VS acts too surprised.

I'd love some sort of epilogue (especially a meaty text epilogue) - it made sense that ME/ME2 didn't have them because they were only parts of a planned trilogy, but they were really well done in Jade Empire and DAO. There'd probably need to be a whole bunch of final conversations where we can talk about plans for the future with an LI; I doubt many people would like their future mapped out for them without at least some player input.
Related: I think kids would be nice, but only if the player chooses. Make a dialogue choice about future plans with an LI at the end of the game (assuming they/Shepard are even alive), kids could be a part of that.
Also: I don't think the VS would be too shocked at Shepard's advances. If the writing is good enough I'm confident Bioware can balance the need to move the romance along with having a credible reaction or explanation for Shepard's new interest.

yeah i kinda had this coming though, i guess.
i do agree with elitepinecone though, maybe nothing too major, just a small deal like:
ASHLEY: Wait, you mean you and I? You do know that we're both women, right?
Female SHEPARD: i know, but does it matter?
ASHLEY: I...guess it doesn't.

As for initiating a romance they could have female Shepard bring up a conversation about Ashley's personal life and past loves like we girls like to do.
Female SHEPARD: So Ashley Williams can be a bit of a party girl?
ASHLEY: Boys can be fun and a nice diversion. Maybe we should go out on the town some time.
SHEPARD: So you have never had fun with a woman?
ASHLEY: Ha! No I have not! I like men but if I ever did I may have taken a shot at you, Commander.
SHEPARD: (Shocked and hopeful) Uh... why?
ASHLEY: You have got to be the most masculine woman I have ever met! You head butt Krogans and arm wrestle thresher maws! The way you walk and sit and OH MY GOD the way you dance! (Laughs) You even keep your legs spread when you are wearing that black dress Kasumi gave you! You are so much like a man it is almost hot!

The krogan thing actually makes sense XD. The turian thing too.

Maybe Shepard and the VS can have a knockdown, drag out fight over the events on Horizon. Yelling, screaming, furniture shattering, crewmen scattering in fear, etc. Then they stare at each other, trembling. Then they madly embrace. Next comes some hot, angry sex. Yelling, screaming, furniture shattering, crewmen scattering in fear, etc.

In ME they did have quite a few scenes that depict Ashley and her sister as being obsessed by boys. Critics say that this proves Ashley can only be straight but I have always thought that this was Bioware's not so subtle way to hit the player over the head and say "Hey! You! Male Shepard! Here is a LI!"

ASHLEY'S SISTER: So this is the great Commander Shepard, huh? She's a little... curvier than your usual, sis.
ASHLEY: And yet still the butchest person I've ever been with.
SHEPARD: One does one's best.
(Though that little black dress... Kasumi can talk main!Shep into a lot of things, but she was never going to talk her into that dress. C.ini modding for the win.)
