I love checking this thread in the morning to see all the new shep dialogue

Just a reminder that while it's hard not to feel bitter about how poorly Thane was treated, try not to be spiteful. Yes, I understand how seeing others complain about the LI content they got when we got it worse is frustrating. But complaining about complaining isn't doing anyone much good.

While it's okay to share these frustrations with friends, this is a public forum.

And remember, every character is someone's favourite. I too got frustrated at other characters when my own favourite was treated badly, but that's not Kaidan's fault.

Not scolding any of you or anything, just trying to keep the situation peaceful before somebody gets offended.

We can still continue discussing our favourite characters without others putting down!

Art time!!!

I agree.
I think we are a pretty friendly thread.
Kaidan isn't the one who screwed up. The writers did that, and they are the ones who will hopefully fix it.

I agree with you and hanar.
It is not Kaidan's fault that we Thane-mancers did not get the option to tell him the truth about the rumors about our Sheps and "an assassin".

I have to admit  that my Shep romanced him again (he was her LI in ME 1) after Thane's death because she felt so lonley and did not want to face the final fight without some "stress reduction" (there's been so much of stress for her during the game:crying:).

I even think Thane was pushing Shep a little bit in the direction of Kaidan because I am sure he did not want her being lonely like he was for a long time after Irikah's death. I see this in his kind offer to look after Kaidan and protect him and his advice that she should enjoy the rest of her life. He wants the best for her.
And I think this would make Thane's character even greater as it already is.<3

It would have been nice and would add much to Kaidan's character if he mentioned Thanes death and told Shep that he feels sorry for her loss and if she needs a friend's shoulder to cry on she can take his. This should be delivered without any romantic approach. Maybe Kaidan could bump into her when leaving Thane's room in the hospital, seeing some tears on her face. When asking her what happend she could tell him about her relationship with Thane.

[utaker1988]

Had Kaidan shown that kind of emotion or dialogue toward my FemShep, I may have been tempted to keep him alive. Again, not his fault, it is how he was written. I would not have romanced him or anyone as my Shep just isn't ready to move on.

Last night, I was bummed, so much so that I did put ME2 back in and last time I played (a couple of days ago) I had left it at Samara's recruitment mission. I nailed out 4 1/2 straight hours of gameplay. I was laughing, giggling, and having some sort of fun. I forgot for a moment how much fun I really had with Thane. Throw/Warp...kaboom. Pull Field...let's see who can take those flying targets out first. He's just better at it. Always loved Tali's recruitment mission, the volume of Geth always made for great fun. It was then my husband came out and said, "I thought I heard Thane. Does this mean you are over how mad you are about what happened?" And no, I'm not over how it was written but for those hours last night, it was great to have Thane back and for a time, I did forget how it all ends.

[Cosmochyck]

LOVE all the Shep dialogue! 
It at least makes me smile because when I think about the ACTUAL dialogue, I do this

I really hope they come out with some DLC to rectify all the atrocities committed in ME3.  Like Thane.  And Jacob.  And the endings.  And the bugs.  And....

*Shep grabs ibuprofen AND a new bottle for Life Support*

[mythlover20]

Totally AU here.

*Shep enters life support and finds SadSiha sitting cross legged where Thane's cot used to be, staring at his mug that's still somehow on the table. An empty bottle of Chardonnay rolls across the floor.*

SadSiha: They took me away from him! I never even got to play for him! *Grabs at bottle* Even my wine has left me now!

Yeah, Margurite is a totally incoherant drunk. Nothing she says makes sense.

At least she hasn't gone back to the crack and red sand. Yet.

[Hisilome]

Thane just died in my playthrough this morning;I ended up crying and being irked at the same time, that scene needed so much more-I would have expected at least some tears from my Shepard and I definitely expected people to talk about him-I knew they wouldn't, but still, it was sad and heart-wrenching to see it first-hand!:/ I still feel...hollow and sad!:(

And someone wrote a few pages back that whoever that Shepard at the hospital was, it wasn't theirs; I felt the exact same way, that was definitely not my Shepard there...or later, when she flirted with Vega and there was nothing I could do to stop it, no conversation wheel, she was just...flirting?? I mean, wtf???:/

Thanks to everyone writing in here, hehe, the PDS and Kaidan chats made me smile for the first time today-ok, giggling, currently, which is even better!

*puts out a pot of hot, black coffee, complete with some cookies in case PDS needs it*

I feel like PDS only consumes a liquid diet

[utaker1988]

Yes, that wasn't my Shep at the hospital. What did they do to her during those 6 months? A lobotomy? Anyway, here is my Shepard and I haven't quite decided if this is while she's detained, boo hooing in her cabin/life support, dreaming/hallucinating, the moment she makes her final choice, or lying in the rubble. I guess it's lots of speculation for everyone.

Into the darkness I gaze
Remembering times, seeming so far away
Distant echoes of voices
Haunting my every thought
Tears fall down my cheek
The only warmth I’ve felt
Since the night you pulled me into your arms
Kisses, passionate and unyielding.
Knowing at that moment
I loved you.
Taken from your embrace,
Time stolen from us.
Looking through the fog
I see a form in the horizon
Familiar and welcoming.
I reach out
And there you are
As you always were.
Arms around your neck
Your hands around my waist
Tears soaking your shoulders
The whisper of your voice,
Siha, I will always be here.

[Hisilome]

Beautiful poem, Utaker!! Made me tear up a bit again-as if I need an excuse today, sigh, I can't even go read that Private Terminal message without starting to sniffle again!

And Cosmo...coffee is a liquid-and the cookies are there to tempt PDS! And coffee can be made Irish, I think-or maybe amaretto!

@Hisilome - true!!

@utaker - awesome poem. Sums up pretty much how my Shep feels for sure. :'(

[utaker1988]

Thanks, it takes a lot for me to even put stuff like that up. Everything I've ever done has been for my eyes only and 99% of the time it is not happy. In order for me to write, I have to be sad or depressed.

Yes, coffee can be made Irish. And when I was going through my divorce and being stalked by my ex husband it can also contain Captain Morgan. Thinking back on that now, I should slap myself for ruining coffee like that. It was awful, gross.

Heh, I do the same with things I write; I seem to take ages trying to persuade myself to post any of my writing-started a Thane fic a few days ago and I'm still correcting chapter 1, though I know it's fine by now:p-but yup, you should post more of your work! And try to write when feeling happy too, though you have a point, it's somehow when we're emotionally sad/down that inspiration seems to come!

I hope that divorce is over and done with, it sounds like a really bad time!:/ *hug*

I like coffee pure and simple,lol, ok, maybe with more milk than normal, but never alcohol-but trying to entice PDS here, so she needs the extra carrot-aka the prospect of alcohol-enriched coffee!

I do not want to see it because I want to save Thane.
I, and my Shep, keep a little faith and hope. "You've build a career on performing the impossible." (с)

Yes and thanks, it was finalized in October of 2007 and I quit drinking a few months after that.  Which is kinda funny but not, my current husband had bought me ME for Xmas that year because I HAD to have it.  The Mako was a nightmare and I just kept failing with it.  I did make it and put that game down for awhile to go back to playing FF..pick a number, played them all.  I picked up ME again after awhile and sober and found the Mako still a pain but easier.  

I love coffee, addicted but I will give it up if they fix Thane.    Which says a lot because the doctor told me my addiction to cigarettes and coffee was not good for me, had all these charts, yada yada, my test results.  He told me if I wanted to live I'd have to give up one to start.  He expected me to pick the coffee...seems easier, nope, tossed the cigarettes.  Of course, if I had to give up coffee for Thane, I would have no use for my coffee mug, kinda like it though, my old man had it made for me.  It says:  
Drell Assassin
~Siha~
Violators Of This Mug
Will Be
NECK SNAPPED!

Gotta love him, I laughed when he gave it to me.  It also caused the retirement of my old favorite, poor Dale Jr. hasn't been used in months.

Saving Thane would be the best option of all, of course.
But if this won't happen and Thane has to die anyway they should at least fix the bad romance.

[Tinve]

We can save any of the ME2 character (with the exception of the Legion). It is simply unfair.

Hehe, don't mention the Mako-I could never properly drive that thing,lol, everywhere there's been a hole/crater/lavapit/you name it I could drop it into...I have!

And another FF fan, yay, for that, hehe!:) And very glad the badness is behind you,my dear, sounds like you've got some goodness now,much needed and definitely deserved! Kudos on giving up smoking too; you're right, hardest of two options, yep, but the best one to give up!

As for using the mug if you gave up coffee...there're always hot chocolates and tea-and juice, as well! It'd be a shame to have to stop using it! Laughing over here too at the writing, hehe, it's awesome!

This is fantastic, as per normal, Shara . 

I hear that quite a few of you guys write fanfiction... is there a compiled list somewhere so I know who to read/review? There are so few people who actually REVIEW any stories on ff.net, and I want to make sure that people get the love that they are due.

[utaker1988]

Just because I can't have this thread on the 2nd page....

Party Banter, DA style:
Kaidan: So let me ask you something. What are your intentions with her?
Thane: You speak of her as if she is not present. She is just right over there, you know...
Kaidan: Don't dodge the question. I'm serious.
Thane: Mmm. Do I detect a bit of jealousy there? Feeling territorial, are we?
Kaidan: I am just asking what your intentions are. You are an assassin after all, remember?
Thane: And she has awoken me from my battle sleep. It has brought us... closer together.
Kaidan: Is that a smirk? Are you smirking at me?
Thane: I assure you, Alenko, that I am not smirking. No smirking here, no.
Kaidan: Well, just... watch yourself, then. I'll be keeping an eye on you.

And one spun from one of my favorite Zev/Shale banters:
Wrex: I have noticed that the drell seeks the attention of the Commander.
Thane: He certainly does.
Wrex: (Snorts) I watched many such acts during the time I spent stuck on Tuchanka. Or should I say I was forced to watch. You do know that this usually ends in reproduction. I have seen it many times, indeed.
Thane: Oh? That is not such a terrible thought. Creating a new life can be a great deal of fun.
Wrex: Not always. When a Krogan is created, it involves an agony one would not believe. How fun is that, drell?
Thane: Oh, I don't know. It could be plenty of fun, if done right.
Wrex: Now the drell jests with me.
Thane: (Chuckles) You think so, do you? Have it your way.

And I'm off....

I thought it might have been nice if Shepard kept a picture of Thane on her desk. Just a small way to show he's not forgotten. But no, we couldn't even get that. D:

YAAAAYY! Two more of my favorite fics have been updated. [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/heart.png[/smilie]

I've been reading a lot of old fanfic lately to take my mind off what an upsetting experience ME3 has been, particularly the dismissive/neglectful treatment of Thane and his romance arc. At least I know fans will give Thane's character a fair shake in their stories and not try to define him by his illness.

[Emeraldfern]

@ utaker1988 Hahaha! I remeber those two banters they are two of my favorites!

(Along with Zev/Alistair's banters about tattoos, and Shale/Zev's about beauty in life with Alistair present)
Aaand now I want to make comics of my own "squad banters" with Thane

Although my  "mad skillz" with comics is made of complete suck gah!
