Are people taking me seriously all the time here? Or is it just my weird American style sense of humor and it just isn't funny?

In my case I think it's just that unmistakable swedish trait of being absolutely terrified at the thought that you somehow offended someone.

Those look pretty good. I've seen that 4th one down quite a lot. People really like that one. That 2nd one down really got it in just the spot before she cracked a full smile it looks like.

Don't worry about it JD. You try your best; its all any of us can do. Some people are really sensitive, others are ****s(checks mirror,"yep, looks about right"). The right time in the wrong place, or wrong time in the right place, and anything can be taken poorly. Hell, look at some of my posts. I can be pretty crass at times.
@Ashira: Lots of nice photos today

I've often wondered about asari eyes, how they can glow with biotic corona and yet also turn black. Is the black hue some sort of nictitating membrane, I wonder? Does it cover the sclera and iris to protect the asari from too much light during moments when their eyes may remain open and yet unresponsive to light changes? Has this been explained elsewhere?

Yeah I suppose so. She looks just like she could fit right into an Xmen movie or cartoon with the glowing eyes, blue corona, and the uniform.AshiraShepard wrote...

I've always wanted to define Samara in an archetype and I think I've found one that atleast starts the discussion.
Samara is a multi-dimensional character who is all about preserving her character and principles. Through this she teaches us the value of self-control even if it is incomprehensible to some of us. Her decisions are pure, her actions are justified by her means.
Some of the things said in that description do not fit Samara at all though, and require offset interpretations, we should try to flesh it out. Could make us appreciate her more than we even do now. We will probably find that she is a combination of a lot of different archetypes.
The Saboteur (The Guide, The Protector, The Facilitator)
This archetype often is the most difficult to comprehend as it is associated with the concept of betrayal. In truth, the purpose of this archetype is to help you learn the many ways in which you challenge, or sabotage, yourself. Our fears frequently cloud the quality of our decisions. There are numerous examples of cases in which the underdeveloped saboteur surfaces. We begin a new relationship and then destroy it because we are afraid of a painful outcome. We begin a working relationship and find ourselves in a power struggle when we fear the talents of the other person. The developed Saboteur guards self, home and everything else important. It guides us in and out of situations by allowing us to feel incredibly creative and vulnerable at the same time. The combination of these two energies activates our potential to rise out of self-destruction. Once maturity is accomplished, the Saboteur becomes an ally that alerts us when we are in a vulnerable state, and thereby allows us to consciously exercise empowered choice.

Depends here on the realtionship. Samara was more than willing to establish a friendship with Shep, just not a romantic one. That to me was because it was incompatible with her lifestyle, and the way she chose to live.We begin a new relationship and then destroy it because we are afraid of a painful outcome.
I didn't sense a power struggle from her perspective. She is very confident and aware of her abilities.We begin a working relationship and find ourselves in a power struggle when we fear the talents of the other person.
This paragraph sounds a little more like her character to me.The developed Saboteur guards self, home and everything else important. It guides us in and out of situations by allowing us to feel incredibly creative and vulnerable at the same time. The combination of these two energies activates our potential to rise out of self-destruction. Once maturity is accomplished, the Saboteur becomes an ally that alerts us when we are in a vulnerable state, and thereby allows us to consciously exercise empowered choice.
I agree with your statements though.Samara is a multi-dimensional character who is all about preserving her character and principles. Through this she teaches us the value of self-control even if it is incomprehensible to some of us. Her decisions are pure, her actions are justified by her means.
