I can imagine what some squadmates, like Wrex, Miranda, or Javik, would choose if they were up on the Citadel talking to the Catalyst instead of Shepard. With others, I have trouble imagining which course they would take, especially Thane for some reason. What do you guys think?
Which Ending would your Squadmates have Chosen?

I can see her choosing Synthesis or Destroy.
Jack, Destroy.

I romance Ashely in 10 playthroughs out of 9. She calls the geth blinky flashlights in ME3.
Guess which one she'd pick. NO REALLY, JUST GUESS!!

LOL NO. Miranda already has issues with how she was created, she wouldn't dictate that for others.

There are certain aspects in Synthesis I see her agreeing with though, not the whole dictate part, as I'm agreement with that.

Javik wouldn't even question Control or Synthesis
He would automatically pick Destroy

Hahaha I always imagined him just blowing up the tube as soon as the Catalyst says "destroy the reapers," not even giving it the chance to explain the other options.
Something like this:

Guess with exception of very few squadmates, most would concur with Shepard's primary objective in most parts of the game: Destruction.
Some characters are interesting to think about:
- Mordin
I don't think he would pick "destruction". In fact, the Salarians are the species leaning most towards transhumanism - and therefore I can see Mordin picking Synthesis.
- Legion
Somehow I believe Legion would go after Control if given the option to pick a decision. Destruction is okay for him too. He never showed any interest in transhumanism 'though, therefore I don't think he'd pick Synthesis.
- Jack
Normally, she'd pick Destruction, right?
Wrong. Jack proved more than once she dislikes playing by the rules. There is a very high chance she'd say "screw you" and shoot the Starchild, resulting in the Refusal Ending.
Most of the other characters appear to be supporters of Destruction, including Miranda.
Not sure about EDI ... maybe she's leaning towards Synthesis too.

Well, Tali's just learned about cooperation with the geth so I doubt she'd be willing to destroy them. And I doubt she'd want the responsibility of controlling the reapers. So synthesis it is. Makes for a perfect conclusion to her character arc.

Seeing how few of them give a sh!t if you kill the geth the first time around, I'd say they'd be almost-unanimous for Destroy.

The only squadmates that might choose anything other than Destroy are EDI and Legion, and possibly Mordin. EDI and Mordin would probably choose Synthesis, and Legion would choose Control.

I can't imagine anyone who would actually choose something different than Destroy.
Exceptions now that I think about it:
- Legion and EDI would pick Synthesis of course
- Tali would probably choose Synthesis after you made peace

I don't see the point. What your squadmates choose can be swayed by how you talk to them. In addition, there's no reason to believe the Catalyst unless you metagame.

Really? Legion seemed pretty insistent on those Reaper upgrades.
I have an idea. From now on, EDI can only be called a sexbot because that is the only thing about her. Nope, no questions about morals, or self-sacrifice, or perspectives of organics/humanity. And nope, she obviously never said that she is willing to sacrifice herself to defeat the reapers. That conversation with EDI before Cronos Station mission is obviously not in the game! Everything about her is the sexbot with a ******; it's what defines her. She obviously serves to be nothing more than Joker's date.
Brotip: Calling EDI a sexbot is obviously an integral part of how to be cool and mature on BSN. Trust me, it will make you sound like a profound, badass philosopher of infinite wisdom.

I think we probably would have focused on those aspects of EDI if she hadn't been given a body, especially a body that looks like *that*. We REALLY didn't need it. Plus Legion was already doing a good job raising questions about the meaning of synthetic life without having her barge in and essentially ask the same questions.
Just my opinion, of course!
Anyway, I agree that most squadmates would probably pick Destroy. Legion would definitely pick Control, and EDI would most likely have picked Synthesis.

Interesting topic. 
I think that Thane would choose destroy. Reasons:
When you consider saving Collectors base he says that "he dedicated his life killing those who deserve and that it's best that they not become what they hate" This is clearly against control ending.
About the synthesis.
One of his quotes is "Technology cannot cure greed." So I think, he wouldn't believe the Catalyst, that world will be peaceful if synthesis is chosen.
Another one: Legion's LM, opinion on killing geth or rewriting them - "There's no moral difference between the two. If you change who the heretics are, you've "killed" them... Killed their perspective". Samara gives similar explanation. As my Shepard really respects their opinions, she wouldn't pick synthesis. That ending causes everyone, everything to change, so it's killing them in some way.

I doubt Javik would even let Starkid offer the choices. As soon as the kid says he's the Reaper king BAM headshot, automatic Refuse.

Liara--who was raised by a philosopher and theologian--would probably bring up the ethical questions involved in synthesis. I could see her going either way on control or destroy, depending on kid's answers and whether or not she is Shepard's LI.
EDI questions things she does not understand, so she would insist upon more information about how each of the choices work. If the kid refuses to elaborate, I could see her picking any--even destroy--because of the "extinction vs. submission" conversation.
Garrus would stop listening to Starbrat as soon as he admits he is in control of the Reapers. In his eyes, the Catalyst would be the worst criminal in all of history trying to argue his way out of his justice.
Vega would probably freeze up from lack of confidence and the "I'm just a soldier" attitude.
Javik would spend the entire conversation looking for an airlock and trying to figure out how to throw an energy being out of one.
Legion is hard to say because his characterization changes so much between 2 and 3 that I can't say for sure. Self-determination and refusing the Reaper's help was such a big deal to him in 2, but in 3 he was fine using the Reaper code. He does always value the survival of the geth, so all I can gather is he won't pick destroy.
Tali would go synthesis if geth/quarian peace, destroy if otherwise. Simple.
Ashley has trust issues to begin with and the Catalyst is an alien to boot. Destroy or refuse.
Kaidan has trust issues too, but he is a kind and thoughtful person at heart that doesn't like hurting people if he can help it. He might view synthesis favorably because of the sunshine and rainbows description, but I can't see him forcing it on people. That leaves control, which means no more deaths.
Samara's code would compel her to destroy the Reapers for their crimes. Also, she did not favor rewriting the heretic geth, so I can't see her going with synthesis or control.
Grunt and Wrex would either shoot the kid (inadvertedly picking refuse) or go with destroy. Grunt would find control and synthesis boring and stupid, while Wrex would want revenge for his people.
Miranda's breakdown about the control chip makes me think she would dislike control, and the description of synthesis as "rewriting DNA" would DEFINITELY raise some red flags in her head. She is still rather ruthless when it comes to punishing those that have done her wrong (like her father), so I'll say destroy.
Jacob prefers action to inaction, so no refuse. Other than that, I don't know.
Thane would dislike causing more death, and his religious beliefs about body and soul would incline him to trust the Catalyst more than others. His personal experience with his body failing might cast synthesis in a more favorable light.
Zaeed doesn't get paid to make goddamn decisions like this, but he defaults to killing people, so destroy.
Kasumi would probably favor destroy until she found out about the possibility of Keiji coming back. Synthesis all the way then.
Jack would tell the kid to **** off. If she gets REALLY pushed to choose, she would go with destroy because of her rather strong opinions on people messing with others' brains.
Mordin is difficult. His conscience could not handle genocide, so no destroy. His conversation about the collectors and the importance of limitations puts the kibash on synthesis. I'm not sure he would trust anyone to control the Reapers--even Shepard--and especially not himself. Refuse would be out of the question because all the evidence points to the galaxy being doomed without the Crucible. He might favor destroy because he includes "killing dangerous people" as helping (and he believes in helping people), but it's hard to say.
