I actually did sniffle quite a bit reading Thane's letter, but it was talking to Liara on the Normandy where I just lost it. And yes, I did have actual tears, call me a dork if you must, but the way the conversation was, the way Shepard sounded it just hit me like a one, two punch.  


yeah, convos with Liara completely made me emo

Nice touch with the love letter Thane has. I hope this isn't indicating that he's actually going to die in ME3.

Quite frankly, Col, if this isn't a de facto indication of that, then I don't know what is. :crying:

I think I'm going to wait to read the letter until I get home and can have a big glass of wine to go with it.



BW games are my chick flicks.

It's not the end until he actually dies. So long as he is walking and talking, I'm hopeful. I love him too much to give up! I have to believe he's going to be alright. I HAVE TOO.

It's true. The more I read the letter, the more pessimistic I get. But what seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise, so let's just hope.

I read the letter again. The part that makes me smile is when he writes of his love as a fact. Thane LOVES Shepard. That's so....wonderful, beautiful, amazing.

There's just something special about that word coming from Thane.

I don't think that the letter is a fact that he's going to die in ME3, I think that, the medical info and the letter,is actually "the cure", the doc said that he don't want to be on list, but that info is before all the romance thing, so Thane can change his mind, I think that he will be ok..I want to belive that bioware will save him.

I didn't cry over the letter.  Infact, I had almost the opposite reaction.  For most of it, I felt vindicated in having correctly deduced his motivations and attitude before, during, and after meeting Shepard.  Yay, go me!  But for the most part, I was disappointed.

And it was mildly conflicted... hoping that the differences in their memory means his passing won't sting the same way for so long as she lives (screw you, lizard boy, how it feels 10 years later won't change the fact that you're not there!), but then saying he selfishly decided to leave something that won't fade (a letter?  Are you kidding me?  I'd go for a holo of them together, at least.  or vids.  BAHAHA matching tattoos).

He says he's dying, but then he says IF all whispers back into the tide (IF )... IF. IF IF.  THIS IS IMPORTANT PEOPLE.  IF.

IF.

It could also reference things going bad in ME3, but I took it as a metaphor for him dying.


Also, I read it last.  The last of everything.  Last of the dossiers, last of the items in that dossier.  So that may be why I was just staring at it like it had two heads instead of getting choked up.  Because the medical report...


I'd read the medical report, first.

Chakwas says he's a viable candidate FOR TRANSPLANTS.  But he refused.

Oh he doesn't get that option now.  My Shepard will stick-figure-drag is drell ass back to Chakwas. 

One lung is bad, one lung is not so bad.  Spread to stomach, liver (minor), heart (negligible at this time).

Cardio is good for him, as is mental and emotional stimulation - This, my Shep can definitely help with.


All in all, I was left with some shred of hope.


Liara...

Liara made me tear-up. I didn't find it touching.  I found it awkwardly out of place, and it stung.  "Touching" would have been something about fighting for love and light and what separates us from the Reapers.  "Tactless ****" would have been saying "a few stolen months before the inevitable" like it's... waaaaagh.  It came off to me as cheapening Shepard's feelings, especially comparing it to what an Asari goes through with a short-lived race.  It's not.  Shepard's had no time, by all rights she should also be dead, and she has no time.  What time she does have is spent risking his life and hers repeatedly and managing a crew.  And she would have more time if the bastard would get the transplants.  It's just not the same.  It came off, to me, as mildly catty.  Or just inappropriate.  GRRR.


Garrus' dossier was depressing.  I should go play it now with my Garymancer.

edit: as a note, I did not like the closing.  That he'll be waiting across the sea.  1.)  this song started playing in my head, which I associate with Scully's father from the X-Files, and 2.) I imagined Irikah waiting with him and this really awkward afterlife...

What Thane letter? I didn't do that romance option. Is that why I didn't get it?

Go go!

Omgsh =( And I was completing a playthrough from ME1 just for him, but this is depressing. I know you enter the relationship knowing hes going to die. but after the dossiers doctor report and letter if you romance him...my glimmer of hope feels gone.
But the letter is so sweet I like Thane even more now. I just love that he calls my Shep Siha.

Cin: Well, that's..... Intriguing.



Your response is the opposite of mine! You brought up some very good points though. I hadn't thought about it from that perspective.



I wonder if Thane's reluctance for a transplant has to do with religious or personal belief? I can see the religion as he could believe if he has a transplant it could endanger his afterlife. I can also see it from a personal standpoint. If he has surgery he will need recovery time, time Shepard doesn't have if the Reapers are coming. So if he has surgery and is out of commission he can't protect and help his Siha. He could also feel more of a burden on her because of that.



I think Liarais still harboring feelings for Shepard. My first Shepard, turned her down flat. She had no romance in ME, just Thane in the second. So I could see Liara coming from a rejection standpoint. Shepard falls someone, not her, but it's tragic and bittersweet because although he loves her, he is dying and Shepard doesn't have time, due to both his condition and the coming of the Reapers.

I saw it more as a matter of selflessness and altruism on Thane's part.

Right there with you sister. It's so totally unfair that the male shep LI's are all healthy and the one seriously intriguing LI in the game for femsheps is terminal. I just want to know if there's DLC in the works or what.. I need some closure! :crying:

i agree with Collider. Since Thane considered himself, well, a sinner of sorts, having killed people, and tries to make up for it, he might as well have decided that there are better people than him to get a transplant and live longer.
