Hey y'all! It's my birthday today!! YAAAAY I'm 18! WOO!

How y'all doing? Keeping the Tali love going strong I see.


Happy Birthday! Now you can legally woo Tali, if your into that sorta thing :happy:


*runs off to woo Tali*

I like older women too. ^^


Oh don't get me started once more about Samara.....:wub: *Ahem!* Yes Tali dear. You are still my one and first most love interest. While I have already served and protected one real live queen, you are easily the true queen of my heart...and if need be I will serve with the same dedication and honour as I did my fatherland: As a patriot willing and trained to fight and kill for it if need be....Though I'd much rather you pounce on me and delectable snuggling ensue.

In related news, tali is ****ing perfect. Her voice, personality, and body, all perfect.

Confirmed by research: perfection of Tali!


Tali's awesomeness: widely known, and know scientifically proven

:lol: But would Tali approve? :P

Fanfic is built around her and Renegade Shep...


But that would depend on how vain she is. I mean, I love hearing about myself, especially when praised by others, but we all know Tali aint like that.

So, when do you think Tali fell for the Ccmmander? First thing he does is rescue her from a bunch of dudes, so do you think it was an immediate thing or did she have to know him for a bit? And did she have to get over him being an alien, or do you think that he looked similar enough to quarians that she was ok with it right away? Or did the fact that he was an alien actually add to his appeal for her, kinda like the whole "green skinned space babe" appeal for humans but in reverse?


Very interesting, she said she watched Shep's face on Virmire, so if not love there was at least compassion which opened the door to further feelings, esp since Shep treats her as an equal and gives her a way to maybe change perceptions of other races toward the quarian people (stop saren). Let's admit it Shep also gave her attention, which it seems to me she has a few daddy issues..... Sorry if this it late, probably on different topic now, I have/keep getting blank pages or page 5 for some reason.


I hate to agree, but "daddy issues" might be somewhere in there.

I'm kinda of intrigued by what planguy said about xenophilia on the quarian end.  That's not usually a theme since in general we get the human perspective.  I can see how that might be going on:  after all, humans walk around uncovered and all.

As a side note, the Life Support Harness greaves make Shep's legs look more quarian.


I think it's very interesting looking at it from her perspective. Even though there were feeling, how did she get over 10 fingers and toes. Image IPB I'm not taking away from her feeling for Shep by saying daddy issues, but she felt very little love from her father, and her mother is dead, the only other quarian males to approach her were probably only do so for political/social gain, so she was probably very disconnected from those feeling. She even says Shep sees her for who she is (maybe not just refering to suit?). She may be a little damaged, but aren't we all.

I haven't really been reading any Mass Effect fanfiction, let alone Tali romance fanfiction, but I've got to wonder what "rape fantasy" means. Did someone read one story of that nature and generalize? Or is the idea that just plain liking Tali is a rape fantasy for some reason?


Jealousy, envy and fear can be such ugly things. I don't mind those people disagreeing or even being annoyed by our enthusiasm towards Tali, personal freedom to choose and all that, but if they were willing to sit down and have a civilised discussion I think we'd both find the other if not likeable then at least tolerable.



Very true. People do tend to generalize based on isolated incidents or, as I believe is true in this case, toss out accusations based on previous experiences with other groups not unlike our own. Regardless, whether it be out of ignorance or spite, such comments are uncalled for and I do hope they avoid them in the future. :x

Would enjoy due to inclusion of Shepard as focus of story, perhaps?
Unlikely in any case...

It was even worse yesterday. Still, the thread's days may be numbered. If not by direct intervention from BioWare, then perhaps by us voluntarily migrating to a new thread once this one becomes too much hassle to navigate.

Hmm, some people have mentioned Tali having some daddy issues, and that maybe being a part of why she's attracted to Shepard. Yep, I can see it. But to be fair just about all the characters have daddy issues. Heck, Miranda, another love interest, has even more noticable daddy issues then Tali.



There are a lot of reasons why Tali loves Shepard, though.

Not really "daddy issues."
Rael'Zorah not cold or unreachable.
Just has difficult time expressing emotion, and very busy.
Tali'Zorah appears very well adjusted.

Gotta reach 1,000 pages first though: to my knowledge it has never been done on a Bioware forum!  If anything, we need to do it just to see if it breaks down after hitting quadruple digits!

Agreed on all counts, and especially in regards to all of us lugging around emotional baggage. Only newborn babes appear to be devoid of such. 'Tis a part of living and growing. The question is what you decide to do with that baggage.

But pyro! there's a betting pool at Bioware on how big this thread will get!

If we make the writer lose the 40 clams they put down they could write her off :D

It'll be a nice send off for this 'ole thread if we do end up having to put it to rest.

I think all the pressures and expectation might have had something to do with it, too.  In ME1 Tali makes a point that as an admiral's daughter she was going to have to have the Pilgrimage to end all Pilgrimages.  Just being allowed to do her thing on the Normandy (and manage to save the galaxy by being in the right place at the right time) was probably a nice change.

Heh, too many fingers.  And how do they walk, let alone run with those tiny toes?  Humans as exotic; a little hard to wrap one's mind around. 

Come to think of it, quarians probably have a base-6 counting system.

The would never write her off for three reasons: 1 they love Tali like us, 2 we would absoloutly storm bioware if they did write her off, and 3 they are probably betting for it to get to 1000Image IPB
