Head canon. You don't care about that stuff anymore. You are a machine. You only care about the many. pfffft.

There's clearly emotional inflection in the voice over for the control epilogue when speaking about allies. Reaper Shepard says that s/he'll never forget those who lost their lives helping him/her, and expresses a desire to protect  friends who still live.
There's more "headcanon" to assuming that Shepard does not care about his/her former squad and allies.

The Shepalyst contains all of the memories and principles of the original Shepard from which it was born. This includes a fondness towards the people who live on.

"And I will watch over the ones who live on... Those who carry the memory of the Woman I once was. The woman who gave up her life to become the one... who could save the many."

In addition, Reaper AI Shep will now live longer than Liara.

But if you fry your ass choosing control or synthesis did you really care in the first place? Come to think of it if you romanced anyone and chose those did you really care in the first place? The answer is NO.

Oh, please. If Shepard picks control, the Shepalyst can simply harvest the asari and put Liara's disembodied mind and personality in charge. Or, harvest just her and make a teeny-tiny little Reaperling. Up yer butt, blue babies.

look... she will move on, even human do that why not the same for asari?


I agree with that.

I don't see Liara sitting around for 800 years as a shut in, mourning Shepard and never moving on. Chances are after an appropriate period of mourning she would start dating again. As you noted that is what people generally do in the real world, if they have the misfortune of losing a wife or husband while still young.

Yes, yes I did. Wut. If Shepard truly loved her, s/he'd put billions of asari to the goo-bath just to build her a techno-organic body in which she can never die and they can be together forever. If there's one thing mid-90s rom coms have taught me, it's the bigger and more dramatic the expression of love, the better, and nothing can ever go wrong.

It's like the ultimate engagement ring.

...and take Liara out of her current body? Isn't that counter-productive?

Well, let's see. Liara is what, 80? 180? Something like that. Give or take a hundred years, alright?

Shepard is about 27, depending on your origin story which may add 2, but also subtract 2, because he was dead for 2 years and I doubt the aging process as we know it had an effect.

The average human life expectancy in mass effect is 150, due to the medical and technological advances increasing quality and longevity of life. So Liara would be roughly 230 or 330 by the time Shepard died. 110 or so years is also more than enough to raise an Asari child to adulthood as well, for all you 'blue babies' folks.

This isn't taking into account shepard's extensive cybernetic enhancements, which can heal scars and brought him back from the #$%^ing dead. It would be a thousand times harder to return someone from death than reverse aging. Not the mention the fact that he wasn't simply dead, he'd been exposed to the vacuume of space, buned to the crisp during atmopheric re-entry at a ball-numbing velocity, and them smashed into the permafrost at the speed of an unlaiden african swallow. They had to restore every one of the trillions of neurons in his brain for god's sake, that's staggering. Those nanobots floating through his bloodstream are basically tiny Jesuses. There's no telling what they're capable of. Given what they've already done, Shepard is nothing short of medically immortal.

I headcannoned shepard dying like a boss in that explosion at the end and skip that damned breath scene because that's how I wanted it all to end. The hero dies at the end, that's why he's a hero. It also gives me an excuse not to bother myself with this sort of thing. Tali can move on and date Garrus or something, he was a bro.

I kinda kinda see/agree with the OP, but at the same time, Liara grows from the scared archaeologist she was when you first met her in ME1 to a rather badass and powerful biotic in ME3, and they embrace eternity on Earth right before the final charge (which I always head-cannon as Liara wanting to give Shepard a child, including my other Male!Shep that's gay for Kaiden).

Looking at it from that, I can only wonder how completely kick-ass the Asari kids of Liara and Shepard are gonna be.

what's sad about it? I don't understand, asari are very adaptable, they focus on the time spent with the partner, Liara will have many more partners in her life, and also look at the bright side, you'll be old grandpa/grandma and Liara will still be awesome young sexy scaly blue alien ;)

Well I'm kind of looking at it from a human perspective not an asari one ;A; But I get your point.
