Now we just have to keep this going for the next 2 years. It's staying power that got us the Tali and Garrus goodies in ME2.

@ tmp7704: Garrus putting his hand on Shepard's shoulder sounds adorable. That'll make her feel better about handing over the Collector base to the Illusive Man. (I know my Shepard would have some doubts about that, even if she thinks it's for the best.)

Alas, i have replayed that part to grab a fraps of it and turns out it's not really anything as romantic... he's just passing Shepard an explosive charge there.

... i still prefer my interpretation, though

Passing an explosive charge, reassuring pat on the shoulder, what's the difference?

So, since i have more free time on my hands than common sense, made a video of that part



Garrus offering valuable input, and support.

Eh, dunno. I think he's older, actually, given that Papa Vakarian pushed him to be an absolutely normal Turian, which means military service from 15-30.

The question here is, is that thirty-thirty or turian-thirty, and is there a difference? D8 Come on, BioWare! We need facts!

Please tell me that is a joke.

Garrus Vakarian was actually on the ground when the Virmire nuke went off. He later complained things felt too drafty.

rofl!

I love forever whoever made this signature. IT IS AWESOME.

And great Garrus facts at the bottom of the last page, too.

Umm . . . Yeah, not much to say at the moment.

Edit: BAH, MY PRETTY SUPPORT SHIRTLESS GARRUS SIG ISN'T WORKING! HOW DO I MAKE IT WORK?

Re-edit: FIXED.

They're the same thing. Turians have roughly the same lifespan as humans.

... There should seriously be a Renegade interrupt during the suicide mission where Joker goes, 'Incoming mission from the Illusive Man!' and Shepard can say, "Seriously? I'm on the *bleep*ing Collector Base right now. Tell him to *bleep* off!!"

@Prolefeed: For serious? That's good at least, none of those awkward life-span issues like Human-Asari relationships.

Pretty sure that was Tali passing the explosive.

His dad might have pushed for him to be normal, but I find it hard to apply the "normal" category where Garrus is concerned, given his "I'm not a good turian " speech. Plus, he specifically talks about leaving the military, which leads me to think that he probably left before standard service was up and spent a couple years in C-sec before getting pissed and leaving with Shepard.

... bloody camera cut there and half the aliens in universe sharing the three finger hands and the chicken feet. You're right, now i'm not sure if the person who hands it is random (i could swear it was Garrus the first time i played it) or if i simply made the same mistake twice.

LOVE it.  I'm thinking an advice!Garrus on "bioluminescent landing strips" could be a very good thing as well.....=D

If I helped inspire but one of those advice!Garrus's my life will become complete.   

Regarding hypothetical Garrus/Shep convos, I would love to hear Garrus comment further on Shep's hair, too, since humans seem to be the only species in ME to have it.  I wonder if he'd fondle it when she's sleeping?  ...and that just went somewhere horrible.

FemShep: Zzz... *snort* ...Garrus, what are you doing?
Garrus: ...nothing
FemShep: Were you fondling my hair?
Garrus: What? It looks nice

[ThatDancingTurian]

Why is it that humans are the only species with hair? That doesn't make sense to me.

Talk about waking up with true case of bad hair day.

[Gerse1]

That is true. There don't seem to be many other species whose appearances are based on mammals (unless you count the general humanoid look). There's a lot of reptile/amphibian/bird/insect features. I'm not sure what the asari are...cross between a human and a....mollusk? lol. Just because of the tentacles. And I always imagine their blue skin feeling somewhat like a dolphin's for some reason.  Which are mammals...but not hairy.  Not as soft or warm as a human. I don't even know *what* to think about batarians. So yeah you'd think with all this convergent evolution going on in the universe someone else would have hair....or fur EVERYWHERE (wookies!..maybe the volus are furry, you never know!)

I have a scenario in my head where Garrus is trying to comprehend how humans have no sensory perception in their hair.  I imagine him gently squeezing the ends going "Can you feel me now? How 'bout now? Now?".  I wonder if the same can be said for a turian's fringe - are the edges hardened and thus less sensitive to touch?

Edit: @Gerse1 -  I must admit that when the devs confirmed that drells were based more off of reptiles than fish I was a bit...er, would "turned on" be an appropriate phrase to say?...at the thought of what his skin might feel like.  If you've ever held a snake before it's quite a sensual experience.  Ahem.

Exactly! I just don't get how humans are the only ones.

lol@ Volus being furry. Gah, it's probably all matted from the suit, though. ::shudder:: Quarians would be the same if they had hair. Sorry Talimancers, but I doubt she has soft, luscious locks waiting to be sprung forth from her helmet.

[Gerse1]

Truth be told it's probably because the devs didn't want to have to bother with hair since it's so difficult to do realistically and not turn out butt ugly.

And I know what you mean about holding snakes.  I'll...just leave it at that.

Since they're supposed to have this metallic shielding perhaps it's less sensitive to touch in general?
Sounds like the next project for the science -- verify Turian sensitivity to various types of touch.

(yes, mind in the gutter and circling the drain now)

[ThatDancingTurian]

I've wondered about that, how well they can feel through the plates. They'd have to if their whole body is covered, otherwise it'd be tragic and uncomfortable. They'd be virtually numb all the time.



Garrus did indicate he has at least some feeling in his face from where he was injured, but I'm not sure if that's from injury to the plates or injury to the skin beneath the plates.

What if batarian females have hair? The image of it is so wrong on so many levels.

Can't imagine that, they'd spend all their time trying to get it out of their eyes...

I actually asked about this the other day, and a lot of the Talimancers seem to think hair is unlikely or impractical. (There's still Tali fanart with long, flowing hair though.) But there's nothing definitive on that for Quarians. Volus would have matted hair, but unlike the Quarians they can actually leave their suits on their homeworld. (It's possible that Volus are naturally hairy, but have laser hair removal or something if they expect to be off-world.)

Which is why Miranda has the best hair of any LI. She does lack Garrus's Turian-ness, though.
