Well from what I see in these topics, most consider posting a picture, someone posting "squee" or something insane like that in response, as a topic being very much alive. I personally prefer to actually talk about the characters, but right now there isn't really anything to talk about that wouldn't just be a retread.


yea well it like every 5 hours when other characters thread r just moving and moving lol jack need the same love

I do think that we've exhausted every possible thing about Jack to talk/speculate for the moment. If you have any ideas though, feel free to shout out, though I think what you'd suggest would likely have been covered in previous posts.

Dr. Doctor could write up some more scenarios to pass the time, I guess. Maybe something about Jack getting along very well with Miranda's sister, with Miranda fuming in the background looking like she'll rip something in half.

Well one thing I'd be interested to hear some opinions about is how you think the Jackmance will proceed after Omega Four.

I'm not talking about what you think Jack and Shep's future is, whether they'll settle down or not and so on. But rather, how do you think Jack will treat the relationship the day after Omega Four, the months after that, the beginning of ME3.

Personally, I see Jack as being a bit bipolar about the whole thing. She still bears a lot of insecurities, possibly not thinking herself worth the Commander's time, fearing that she's still just a quick lay and not much more. But then at other times she's determined to make it work, confident, hopeful. She'd fluctuate between the two extremes, one day telling Shep to fvck off, the next asking him where the fvck have you been. This could lead to conflicts extending and expanding the romance arc, eventually building towards a point where Shepard convinces her to have faith in the relationship, assuring her that, while not many people are even willing to try to do so, he understands her, whether she returns his affections or not.

Basically, in ME2 I picked up on a lot of feelings from her that 'everything turns out sh!tty in the end, so don't bother', but Shepard's trying to convince her otherwise. But then in ME3 that will have moved on to a point where she's convinced its too good to last, she's bound to screw up somehow, or Shepard's just stringing her along.

Thoughts?

Same thing here. I could see Jack as being two-faced about the whole thing. Some days she might be really sensitive, and the next day she might tell Shepard to f*ck off out of embarassment. There might even be a scenario where Shepard understands Jack enough so that Jack could just keep being a dick to Shepard for the rest of her life and he'll still love her. That, or Jack acts sensitive only in front of Shepard.

And now, Tenauri Doesn't Want Dr. Doctor To Have All The Fun Productions presents...

Grunt, Jack, Shepard and Tali IN... Bumbling Basement Buddies!

Tali is kneeling in the engine room, grumbling to herself as she makes repairs to the fried shielding core of the Normandy.

Tali: ...told Shepard we needed to upgrade to multicore shielding, but noo, he wanted to spend the palladium on a new heavy pistol upgrade. How upgrading a pistol costs as much as upgrading an entire ship is beyond me, but hey, what do I know...

She picks up a piece of melted Legion off the floor, grimaces (presumably) and tosses it aside. There are footsteps as Jack makes her way upstairs.

Tali: Oh, hello, Miss, uhm, Jack...!

Jack: Uh, hi.

Tali: Boy...fixing the engine room all by myself sure is difficult...

Jack: Yep.

Tali: I mean, I used to have an entire crew down here with me, buut...they were all liquified.

Jack: Yep.

Tali : So...now I'm stuck...doing all this difficult work...by myself. No one to help me. Though I would appreciate, you know, any assistance.

Jack: Cool story. Bye.

Jack goes to leave the room, but walks right into Shepard, who is entering it.

Shepard: Oh! Jack! You're here to help Tali, too? That's great!

Jack: What? No, I--

Shepard kisses Jack amiably on the forehead, then goes to grab some tools and get to work. Jack groans, rolls her eyes, and follows. She starts whacking at a random panel with a wrench in obvious discontent.

Jack: So bored.

Shepard: We've been doing this for literally 4 seconds. What's the matter, I thought you liked ships? You kept telling me how much you wanted to steal this one and 'put her through her paces.'

Jack: Shepard, you hired me on to be your sexy murder machine, not to do pointless grunt work. I mean, seriously, why do we even HAVE a Quarian on the team if she's not going to do all this stuff for us at reduced pay?

Tali: Excuse me--

Jack: Shut up. But seriously, Shepard, it's in our contract. You point at people, I make them die, occasionally we fool around. Quit over-complicating things with your 'teamwork' and 'acknowledging the Quarian.'

Tali: I'm right here--

Jack: Shut up.

Shepard: ...Contract? What the hell are you talking about?

Grunt slides into the room to audience applause.

Grunt: Shepard, I just had the most amazing dream.

Shepard: Oh no...

Grunt: There I was, standing on top of the desecrated corpses of everyone you've ever known or loved, and...what are you guys doing?

Jack: Playing 'punch the Quarian,' Shepard was just saying how he doesn't think you can beat his high score.

Grunt: Oh, I'll show him!

Grunt charges at Tali, but Shepard intervenes.

Shepard: We're fixing the shield core after it...you know...exploded. Want to help?

Grunt: I suppose I can be of assistance, Battlemaster. Who must I slay?

Shepard: You...we're just fixing...what?

Jack: I like you, Grunt. Look out, Shepard, you've got competition.

Tali sighs, and reaches for her toolbox, but is surprised to find it is no longer there.

Tali: Where did--

Grunt belches; a bolt flies out of his mouth. Tali groans.

Audience laughs and applauds, fade to commercial.

That was hilarious, Tenauri!

Hello to all - I thought I'd pop in and voice my support for Jack.
At first, I disliked Jack's rather aggressive attitude, but after a few playthroughs, I started to like her character and noticed that she seems to "quiet down" a little bit after her Loyalty Mission.
I just finished playing ME1 (completing every mission), where my Shepard is single. Now, I started a ME2 playthrough where I will romance Jack. (I've been wanting to a Jack romance for some time now - which is why I played through ME1 again (to create a file, that is 100% complete, with Shepard being single)).

Well I like to look at it this way, Jack is a no nonsense kind of broad. By keeping this topic free of nonsense that only serves to bump the topic not actually add anything like all the others, we do homage to Jack ^_^

Next to Wrex in ME1, Jack had the most amazing comments after my Shepard did something renegade. Mostly laughing and approving of me. Brought her to every mission after I recruited her pretty much. Was upset when the swam of collector bug things killed her in the SM. Need to start over before 3 comes out or it just won't be the same...

You think renegade sleeping with her would still lead to some sort of relationship in 3, or will she forget it ever happened and resent me for it?  I don't want her to become touchy feely like she is in the youtube videos I saw, but still kinda want a renegade relationship in at least one playthrough.  lol

Well in John's case, it's a live-'n-learn day-by-day co-existence. For instance:
  • He buzzed her on the intercom, she told him to "F*ck off, you don't own me Shepard!" and was surprised to see her on his couch when he came back from his rounds.
  • He was surprised to hear her ask, "So you think Miranda really had a change of heart?" "What?" "Yeah." "Why?" "Are you f*cken stooooopid?" "You've never called her..." "Yeah, now answer the question or f*ck off!"
  • "I kinda like you in cuffs, but you're still a military stooge!" "Guilty as charged." "Want me to splatter that goon Vega against the bulkhead and we go pirate?" "Reapers first, then I'm all yours Jack." "As I said, stooge..."

You have to listen to what Kelly says. You can do a very good Renegade Romance with Jack, but don't sleep with her casualy!
I suggest you make some savegames test some dialogue options with Jack. The Paragon-Romance is not the only option with her.

The whole calling Jack up to the cabin on the intercom thing to me doesn't really strike me as happening so much as Jack randomly appears in the Cabin:

Shepard: (walks in to see Jack sitting on the floor lotus-style reading a datapad) Hey.

Jack: Hey.

Shepard: (sits down next to Jack and wraps an arm around her sholders) There is a couch you know.

Jack: Force of habit.

Shepard: Oh. Why's that panel on the wall behind the desk open?

Jack: Access hatch. Leads to the service shafts throughout the ship. Opened the one in the cargo hold and climbed up here.

Shepard: You could take the elevator.

Jack: Don't need everybody knowing that I come up here. I've got a image to keep.

Shepard: Other than being the cuddliest living engine of destruction in the galaxy?

Jack: (punches Shepard in the sholder playfully) You tell anybody about the cuddly part an I'll have to hurt you.

In my humble opinion, that was spot on...until the end. Niether Shepard nor Jack would ever refer to her as cuddly. I just don't see that in her vocabulary, even as a joke. Even if she will be less rough around the edges post an ME2 Romance, she would still call you a **g (no offense intended to the Same Sex community; it's just an example) or a ***sy and be fairly discusted if you used cuddly.

^Agreed, that last part seems like something Merrill would say, nothing Merrill would ever say, Jack would say lol. I would propose

Jack: I learned to avoid the scenic route

Shepard: The scenic route?

Jack: The one with all the f***ing gawkers and cameras.

Shepard: (chuckles) fair enough (sits down next to Jack) *scene fades out*

Modding ME2 has showed me that Jack + the Claymore = Awesome.

Shepard: Jack, why are you carrying that Claymore?

Jack: Are you really asking what I'm going to do with a shotgun?

Shepard: That thing is almost as big as you are!

Jack: So what,? I'm not some ****ing delicate flower. Besides I could really blow **** up with this thing.

Shepard: You'll break an arm when you go to fire it.

Jack: If you're so ****ing worried about my shotgun why don't you fire it?

Shepard: Alright (takes the Claymore from Jack and fires it, only to have his shoulder dislocated) Damnit!

Jack: Now if you allow me .(grabs shotgun, flicks an switch on the side and then fires without incident)

Shepard: (rubbing his shoulder) How did you do that?

Jack: Had this thing fitted with recoil dampers, you just forgot to turn them on.

Shepard: You couldn't have told be that before I hurt my shoulder?

Jack: It's just dislocated you big wimp, (pops Shepards shoulder back into place) there. Do you need me to kiss it better too?

Now this, completely in the right tone. Brilliant, sir.

Sadly, Jack can't use the big, shiny Claymore without mods. She's stuck with the Eviscerator in most of my playthroughs. Now for something completely different:

Captain's Cabin
 
Jack: (sitting on the bed lotus-style) It's ****ing two in the morning, are you planning on sleeping sometime this week?

Shepard: (typing away at his console) Just a few more reports to file.

Jack: (sighs) Damnit.

Shepard: Sorry, but the ship needs attending to...(Jack uses her biotics to pull Shepard over to her) Whoa!

Jack: The ship can wait. Right now it's my turn to get attended to. Get it? (drops Shepard onto the bed)

Shepard: Got it.

Jack: Good. (rests head on Shepard's shoulder)

Nice.

Here, have a gif.

You know what I saw a while ago? I was washing my hands in the bathroom at Boston Pizza, and I saw in my peripheral vision some guy that appeared to have huge, abstract tattoos all over his arms. He was wearing a tank top, and the design appeared to extend all over his torso, too. They were big, bold, crisp, geometric designs, like the circuit board tattoos on Jack's back. I wish I'd stopped to compliment him.

I think I've asked Casey for something/anything once, but I highly doubt we'll get anything until we get nearer to the release. I don't recall much from the pre-release of Mass Effect 2, but weren't character reveals etc. only released a couple of months before the game was shipped?

Oh, the wonders of being of the PC Master Race! 

I kid, I kid. But I'm quite sure she only has the vanilla-shotguns available in the game.

God, I recall that promotional campaign like it was yesterday. Wasn't really wowed by any of the others except for Jacks. Had there been one for Tali, I would have gushed as required by my primary Tali crush; however we just got Miranda and Jack, for the most part. Miranda wasn't anything all that special because, as a Chuck fan, I've seen "Miranda" several times a week for the last few years. However, Jack's really knocked me on my butt. I'd been all excited to romance the beloved Quarian free from temptation. Then Jack's video came along. Needless to say, now I have two Romance timelines for ME2/going into ME3. Guilt free, which is nice. By the by, watching this, anyone still think they made her look like Megan Fox? I recall seeing that posted in so many places...
:huh:
