So, if you select the "I'd catch you" option, would you still have to flirt with her in all other instances to be able to get her to feed the fish? I.E. saying she's prettier than Samara and telling her you'd protect her from Grunt? Or would you simply not get those choices anymore?

Its kind of sad though. In the future, they can raise Shepard from the dead, make biotic implants that let you crush things with your brain, holograms you can cut cake (and people) with, AIs that develop emotions and starships that can transverse the known universe.

But fishtanks with timed feeding devices....that eludes us.

Yeah, that IS really silly. We used a kibble timer on our aquarium just this past week for our turtles (we don't actually have any fish at the moment; the turtles usually eat them).

Perhaps the ME developers don't actually own fish (or turtles)?  I feel somewhat disappointed.

I specifically remember Dusty Everman saying in one of his posts that having dinner with Kelly does in fact register as a choice/decision by the importer--which makes me wonder: what does that mean for those who are already engaged in a relationship with Kaidan, Ashley, or Liara?

I have heard that (also from Dusty) what happens during the "dinner" fest is basically determined by what you told Kelly at the very beginning of the game. Specifically, whether you told her that you would "catch her" or "embrace her" in response to her comment on getting along with you or something along those lines. If it's the former, then that means a platonic, friend-zone-only relationship; whereupon the latter means more than that. I don't exactly remember what Dusty said, but I'm fairly certain that was the point.

EDIT: I should clarify that I am referring to the dinner invitation, not the other one where she dances for you. In addition, if anyone would like to see Dusty's posts, our good friend Dave of Canada has compiled them here.

Ach, I cannot remember which one I chose.  I figured that just having dinner with Kelly, without doing the followup that would result in the email and dancing later on, would mean the dinner was platonic.

I will be so annoyed if I'm accused of doing something with Kelly because I chose "embrace" instead of "catch."  I just wanted my fish fed, and Kelly's perfectly nice in a platonic relationship.

[Welsh Inferno]

Wait what? All I wanted was her to feed the damn fish! I wish there was an actual dev quote on this because surely there is more to it than choosing the "embrace her" option right at the start.

I think of Kelly as the Conrad Verner type encounter, from ME1.

Whether you stuck a gun in his face, or let him down gently, he goes away; Yet he reappears for ME2.

I think whether you bed Kelly or not, in ME2, depending on your previous action, you will have an encounter of some kind, in ME3. It could be as innocent as Kelly asking you to consider a relationship, or a 'heart to heart' about might have beens, resulting in you just being good friends, or she could pull a 'Glen Close' and go all 'Fatal Attraction' on your arse, at the most inopportune time.

I was expecting to have to say that after LOTSB, if she doesn't mention it, it's nothing at all. Kelly is like the village bicycle anyway, even the ship had her way with her.

[mango smoothie]

I've always felt Kelly to be a little weird. Never really talked to her too much as every time I did it was like o....k.

perhaps she'll be minimally involved....working for cerberus i'm guessing she won't be along for the ride in ME3

it's been confirmed she'll be back, not that she'll be with you all the way, no?

edit- yes i did read it...still doesn't mean she'll be anything more than an email or a point of contention with your previous LI......

there were many people from ME1 'back' in ME2....

those characters that returned as cameos from me1 to me2 were not major characters,while im not saying kelly has a huge impact in the game, she spends a significant amount of time with you. to reduce her down to an email in me3 is just silly

i don't disagree there, but I just don't expect her to be part of the crew.....show up, yes perhaps, or if you did have her dance in your cabin, perhaps you insist she comes along...

i'm just saying, she was a bit part....not integral to the story unless you actually pursued her as a LI.....she could be explained away if she wasn't (a LI)

Not at all. You can still get her to feed your fish. It just means you're not on serious terms with her. Still, it leaves the question open as to whether or not this will affect your previous relationship in any way.

We are just friends. I needed her to feed my fish. We are just friends, we just had dinner and talked about our x's. Really. Poor Kelly, she miss understood my intention. I JUST WANTED HER TO FEED MY FISH. * cough* Really.

[Grivous456]

I hope that this isn't true, because again like a lot of people here I stoped after the dinner (whitch i thought was just blatonic) thing where she agreed to feed my fish Even though I did flirt with her  but I stoped after the dinner thing. I don 't think (hope) that will effect my previous LI. Also if you do get the e-mail but don't accept it (not invite her to dance or w/e) will that efect the thing I had with Ash?  *Spoiler Alert!!* I do know that right before the SM, if you don't romance anyone in ME2, you do go into your cabben and look at your picture of your LI in ME1  on the table, so that makes me think that it won't have any effect.

If you want to get technical, most of the people in ME1 weren't central to the plot either.  Liara was the only squadmate with any actual post-Citadel relevance, and on the Citadel, Tali was only relevant for about five minutes.

Surely if we admit Tali is plot integral for her mp3 file so are Wrex and Garrus for leading Shepard to her. Also while not integral to assignments companions are often still relevant to what Shepard does (e.g. Kaidan in the L2 hostage crisis, Tali in the Armstrong Nebula geth missions.)

[whywhywhywhy]

I don't mind Kelly and any consequences that come along with her. But, I have a sneaking feeling Kelly and Miranda will get indoctrinated. Especially if you keep the base, not that keeping the base matters given the info that's been released.

Only in the most minimal way, because you can skip either one, and the sole contribution of whichever one you do talk to is to say "Go to this bar".  And in Garrus' case, he doesn't even provide that information: Dr. Michel does. He simply chimes in that it should be checked out.

Also while not integral to assignments companions are often still relevant to what Shepard does (e.g. Kaidan in the L2 hostage crisis, Tali in the Armstrong Nebula geth missions.)

Yeah, I agree, and I don't think they particularly need to be intimately tied into the main plot, as they have sufficient motivations and reason to tag along anyway. It's just that people commonly harp on ME2 for that and rarely acknowledge that ME1 was also an "offender".

I still can't figure out why Tali is a required companion in ME1 while Garrus and Wrex are optional (both of which at least have somewhat relevant reasoning for bringing Saren down).
