@ Giggles.. I don't hate her... I don't trust her.. there is a difference... She is not coming anywhere near Kaidan... and I don't do fish.

@ Jade - You can't really romance Kelly .. she doesn't count, but she will dance for you ... or so I hear... Like I said, I don't talk to her much...

@ Chem - Skanky with an odd bend towards totally creepy ... and the scale itch thing... do you know what you have to do to get that? *Takes some of Chem's wine*.. Yeah, she has got to go when Kaidan gets here... cause if she goes near him... there is always the Collector's partical beam...it doesn't leave traces...

Edit: top of the page...

Yeah. I agree Night.

I wouldn't let her within 20 yards of Kaidan. And in those 20 years, she'd better watch her eyeline and her facial expressions. 'cause otherwise, she's leaving the ship--whether we're docked or not.



@Kelly romance: my mShep did get her e-mail after O-4. But he didn't invite her up. He didn't want her in the first place and she was kinda forced on him. He's certainly not going for a second round. He's all but engaged to Liara. ;)

I don't trust Kelly, but sometimes I think she is a little too naiv with Cerberus...but if she gets to close to Kaidan she will learn about the zero gravity in the Galaxy ;p

Maybe it's the stereotype that gets me ... whenever a chick is a psychiatrist/psychologist in films or shows, she always turns out to be crazy, like unstable or obsessive. It's not her fault that I give her side eye.

 I think she is a *tart with a heart* nice girl, a sort of Lucy Lastic character. Kind but sort of......

Yeah, I really hate that. And if Kelly's a psychologist...well, all I have to say is she violates a number of ethical standards and a possibly a couple of laws. lol   I wouldn't trust her within 20 yards of Kaidan. ...although for some reason I'd trust him.

First off, I want to say that I know how it is to wander into a support thread and see that the current subject is critical of another character you like, so I think it's important to emphasize at times like this that it's not a judgement on people who like that character. While I'm always happy to meet new people who like Kaidan, I know he's not for everyone, and that doesn't mean that those people are "wrong" for not liking him -- he is a well defined character, but that means that he's not going to have universal appeal. I think that applies to Kelly too.



I think the issue with Kelly is that she was created for a very specific purpose -- to be a "casual" romance. You can decide that your dinner with her was completely platonic, but in order to get to that point, you have to blatantly flirt. There's no friendship path that leads to the same place. This is the issue with many of the characters in ME2, so it's not unique to her, but since that's all there is to her character -- other than alerting us to new emails and squadmate's loyalty missions -- it can be a turn off.



Personally, I had to kind of change the conversation with her in my "mind canon" so I could justify having dinner with her and having her feed my fish. It's entirely possible for two women to stay up late just chatting, and to me, that's what happened. I can see how, if you don't ignore the actual dialogue ingame, it can seem like the only relationship possible with her is flirtatious.



I do agree about how suspicious it may seem, to have a Cerberus employee who is so very open about her preferences and interested in Shepard almost immediately. If there was more to getting to know her, or if we could have gotten to know more about her than her romantic interests, I think she would have more fans.



One thing I wonder is how people would have reacted to Ken Donnelly as a casual romance. Would they have written him differently? It's a shame that they cut it out, even if I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have taken the option...I wouldn't want to come between him and Gabby.

Oh, I guess I never knew this was initially considered. Do you know if he would have been casually romanceable for ManShep, too?

He was. They cut it out at the last moment apparently.


And I agree with TZ... I may not be the biggest fan of Kelly but maybe we should back off on the hate. Just a thought :unsure:

Oh, in a way that's sucky. I agree about not wanting to come between Ken and Gabby, because i really do want to imagine them in an adorable geeky relationship... But I want to play a ManShep with a male LI and if it can't be ever be Kaidan (I'm on Xbox, not a PC), I'll take whatever else they'll offer... Sigh.

Yeah, a few other characters were supposed to be bi and those got cut as well. Miranda and Jack were apparently bi originally. It makes me wonder which male romances were to be bi as well.

aaw.... I don't think most here actually hate her...I don't hate her...and she is feeding my fish ;)...

Actually I must admit, after saving her from the collector base I liked her even more ...



@Ken, I would wonder how they would have written him, if they really had made him a LI.. I think some parts of his character would have been different to make him more interesting for a femshep...I really like him, but I agree I could not take him away from Gabby :) ...and none of my femsheps would have given up Kaidan

I believe.. well I read that Thane was initially supposed to be bi. I would of liked it if they left Jack bi. Hell it would of been nice if they left most of the characters from both games they intended initially to be bi. I sometimes think my male Shep would of worked good with Kaidan. But anyways...

I would have liked Ken as a casual option. But then again, you know with Ken what you're getting if you listen to his comments on female members of your team at all. I like him, but he's a big of a dawg. ;)

I don't Hate Kelly, I don't trust her. I go out of my way to make sure she survives. I don't trust Miranda either for that matter. I am not getting rid of them, but if they go near Kaidan... All bets are off.



Not trusting someone is not the same as not liking them. I don't honestly know Jacob enough to say whether I actually like him enough, because I can't stand how Shepard talks to him, so I can't really get to know him.



That feeling you get when you think someone is hiding something from you, it does cause suspicions.



Okay, so I have trust issues...they all survived, they just aren't allowed up to my cabin.

Woah, im always amazed at the lil bits of info people have on here that i dont. Ken was going to be a male Kelly? Was Kelly always going to the way she is or did they make her that way after they cut Ken romance?0

Ken would have intrigued me i think. What a shame

I liked Ken, and would have definitely flirted a bit - I mean the man has some great lines.

On the Kelly issue, perhaps I was a bit too hard on her earlier. She does have a few good lines, especially when talking to FemShep about the Thane romance (I romanced him on my "practice" runthrough - don't hate me).

I've tried the other romances. Well all of them except Jacob.

She definitely makes for an interesting character, and has a bubbliness/optimism that you dont find elsewhere on the ship, so i can see the appeal

Just remembered my first playthroughof ME1. I was rather annoyed by the fact that I couldn't customize default face, then there was an opening and guy who looked exactly like I was imagining maleShepard. Furthermore, this guy told me as a tactical review exact repeating of my own minds. Then we became friends. After that, Ashley at first time was left on Virmire.



Two years gone, and I still can't kill Alenko on that mission. And I've got a strange reaction on simple word "Horizon".



What else can I say? Thank you, BioWare
