Thank you all for clarifying the Kasumi-ending, and a special thanks for showing the screen

sooooooooo we have to speculate because a reunion between shep and his/her LI would have been too "cheezy" and "cliche" yet this slide shows up? *cough* bulls**t *cough* The truth is (at least what I think is the truth) is that they wanted to paint synthesis as the BEST ENDING...can't really do that if you reward the destroyers with a last nice image like the above. Plus I think they were too lazy and didn't want to change the breath scene. EC is a nice band aid but like most of ME3 was done with the MINIMUM of effort possible.
The part with 'synthesis is BEST BEST BEST, don't you players dare to think otherwise' was actually my first impression when I finally saw all three endings (none of my three main Shepards is ever going to touch the control console or the synthesis beam, not even for science, so I had to wait for the forth).
After stopping laughing about the circuit-covered leaves, that is.
But then I reconsidered and am now sort of convinced they tried to somehow balance it. There are "Disney slides" (sorry, but that phrase is great

) for Destroy, too, and I'd bet for Control as well. In case of Destroy, you can see Samara at peace, Zaeed relaxing, Grunt / Wrex / Eve all happy and rebuilding, the (personal opinion again) most beautiful London screens, a content Jacob... Jack's I've only seen with my Control-trying Shepard, but it's nice, too. And Shepard breathing
plus the acknowledgement of the LI in the memorial scene is not Synthesis, either.
And Disney-craving players with a severe rainbow-bunny-fluff addiction - fanfiction, fanart, headcanon or (if on PC) modified endings. Not optimum, but okay for me.
Edit: Forgot to mention, thanks for posting those great pictures above!
And I don't want to start any heated argument on the endings, either, I just never got the impression that it was a danger in this thread. Always thought and think that most people around here have their opinion, but tolerate the other options.
