I still plan on writing fiction about Thane, however, for as long as I can.  Just trying to recover from the initial shock and horror of all this, before I can refocus.  Unfortunately, a great deal of it will be somber (unless they give me a reason for it not to be).


No. You have to write happy endings for our Thane. He may have been forgotten by Bioware but he can't be forgotten by writers like you.

*cough*Started writing a fic after Nerana told me what happens to him in the game-post ME3 ending, and assuming that my official headcanon(aka the Indoctrination/hallucination theory, since it makes perfect sense to me) holds true-I am going to try getting him back! ;) I know, I know, not there in the game yet, but, sigh, I had to get writing!:)

@mnomaha: I saw my husband play through the Thane bits... so I saw how close they are to my Thanemance playthrough.  I guess Thane didn't call him 'Siha.'

I wish Shepard could of taken Thane to Rannoch to see a desert....

Or Rakhana. It's a desert planet! It could have been therapy for his lungs!

Intai'sei would have been perfect for Thane. Shepard had her apartment there.

A desert would have been the sweetest date ever. It's what he wanted, after all.


I'm really astounded they "forgot"  to at least include something like this knowing it'd be important for Thane fans!
Besides Rakhana would have been an awesome planet to visit on a mission!

Haha, well, I can't change what I already have planned.  I'm a sucker for the dramatic, but that doesn't mean there won't be feel good moments, too!  Don't worry, none of this has effected my original planned series in the slightest.

As for events in ME3, I'm holding off on all that till later.  I have a gut feeling this isn't the end.  I may be grasping at straws, but I'm not gonna give up hope until there is a reason (and even then, I'm stubborn as hell). 

Another thing that made me feel a little regretful was you get to revisit Inta'sei in Argos Rho.  The location of Shepard's apartment in Mass Effect 1.  You only get to scan it, however.  That place is a setting for one of the half-finished installments of my fic.

The place is nice, with a dry desert and a spectacular view:

@ Hanar - Thank you for showing us the comics....always welcome more! :) Lovely pic by squeegee too...good find @Cosmo. Sooo many missed opportunities with Thane, and the rest of the ME2 squad. Like Cosmo, I started the ME universe in ME2....loved it so much bought almost all of the DLC and played through it four times. Then went and bought ME1. Currently have two Shep's imported from ME1, sitting unfinished in ME2, and two Sheps in ME1 also waiting to be finished. Keep hoping I will get a good reason to go through and finish those Shepards (two of which or f!Sheps for the likes of Mr. Krios, of course.)

Going to Kasumi's Bar n' Grill.....can I get anyone anything???

I never started in ME2!!  I started in ME1 - thought it was lame (stupid mako!), and only played it twice.  The gameplay was clumsy too.
Then bought ME2 a year after it came out, and finally cracked it open 6 months after that.  I had switched Xboxs by then, so couldn't import from ME1.  Just started clean in ME2.  Of course met Thane, and well the rest is history.  Plus the story and gameplay were 1000x better than ME1 (for me anyway). 
Figured out how to get my saves off my old xbox and did 2 imports - a Liara/Thane romance (won't be going back to her in ME3), and a loyal Kaidan - niether of which are finished. 

As for the bar - I'll take a whiskey, neat.  Image IPB

Thane's goals:

Make his mark on the galaxy, be remembered.

*is forgotten*

Go to a desert.


*goes to the sea*


It's really hard to be satisfied with his end when he didn't even achieve his goals.


There is one more thing they forgot: Thane did not want to die in a hospital, but that is what he got. :(

I started the series with Mass Effect 1. I had three female Shepards back then. One was for Kaidan, one for Liara and the last one was single.

My 'single' Shepard is my main, who ended up with Thane. I just didn't think any of the ME1 romances fit her, as a character. In my head, she's sort of like this mixture of Ripley from Aliens and Jean Luc Picard from Star Trek. A bad*ss protector when she needs to be, an intelligent and dedicated diplomat the rest of the time. Essentially your typical honorable hero who oozes charisma (though on the inside she's far more complicated).

Thane was just.... the perfect fit. Their personalities meshed so well. I knew the implications, but went for it anyway.

That's because Thane is worth it.

PS - Hanar - ask for that banner back!!


Ha! Well, as much as I dislike what happened to Thane in ME3, it's not all of the teams fault.
I bet there were a lot of writers, a lot of artists, a lot of editors and directors who didn't like the direction the game took.
I can't blame BioWare for this because BioWare is made up of a team of individuals.
I bet it was decisions made higher up that made them do it. And as much as it hurt them to do it, you can't really say no to your boss.
Otherwise, that may be the end of your career.

I'm sure some of them still appreciate the banner.

I know but the fact that one of those writers admitted that they "forgot" about Thane is shameful.

I'm replaying the game (wanted more input on Javik's character)... Thought I had managed to decide in my head that Thane simply wasn't in ME3 but thriving somewhere else, healthy and happy. Now that I am at the citadel part, I'm feeling extremly nausious thinking about what's to come. >.<

Stupid some writers at Bioware. Not all, I guess, like Hanar said

Hmm...need to make a Fanfiction.net account, it seems;I usually write original stories, so I've never needed an account over there!Will get on it when my Chapter 1 is over and aye, AU is  the only way to go here-though I'm generally a big fan of canon, hehe, but in  this case, canon is a sad, desert(no pun intended, I swear) of a mess!:/

And *hug* to Nerana; remember, stop before the Citadel and let headcanon take over!*nods*Only way to travel!

Awww :( I FEEL FOR YOU!
I don't think I can manage another playthrough ;__; At least not for a while.
Unless something gives me incentive to, that is.
