Something I never really got: Did Garrus go back to C-Sec immediatly after end of ME1? Or did he remain with Shepard for a while? Certain conversations in the game have hinted at both and it confuses me. 
I am still confused about this too. I agree that different lines in the game have given me both impressions. I wish I could remember the specific lines, but I can't now. Jacob (I think) early on in the game specifically names that Liara and Tali were on the Normandy when it was attacked, but that doesn't mean Garrus/Wrex were not. There is some other person, later, who refers simply to "the aliens who were on the Normandy" doing...something. Gah. Obviously we know both Garrus and Wrex eventually moved on to something else but it's not clear if it was
immediately after Saren, or what.
With Wrex it is easy to imagine him going straight back to Tuchanka after ME1. With Garrus, it's a little less clear why he would want to go back to C-Sec before Shepard's death. Obviously after the Normandy was destroyed he would have had to go
somewhere and for paragon'd Garrus, C-Sec makes sense (now I can't even remember if he does something different for renegades). But in the few weeks or so between the Citadel battle and the destruction of the Normandy, when they were running around fighting geth, I can easily see Garrus sticking around (even with manShep or no secret romantic feelings and all that, just plain ol' vanilla canon) just for the continued fun of adventuring, doing some good for the galaxy by killing the geth, but under a Spectre who isn't fettered by rules/regulations -- basically the same reason he joined up in the first place.
Anyway, so I guess my vote is that it seems logical for him to have stayed on the Normandy for a while based on his character/motivations, but based on the what the game *actually* tells us, it seems less likely he stayed, which is where the contradiction is coming from. If he
had stayed on, you'd also think he would have dialoge about "when we were attacked" or something. And Dr. Michel refers to "when he found out you had died." Which implies he wasn't around at the time. Even then though you could find away around that -- maybe the people in the escape pods didn't immediately know whether Shep, Joker, etc, had escaped or not, all they could see was things getting blown up out the window.
EDIT: @ moonboots, yes there is also the fact that we don't see him jumping into the escape pods (but I don't recall specifically seeing Tali or Liara either and we know they were there) but that may not be so reliable, since they were trying to keep him a secret for the Archangel mission, maybe???? (which wouldn't make sense since it's earlier in time and wouldn't give it away...but they didn't have him in any of the marketing, where simple shots of him fighting wouldn't necessarily spoil the surprise of his alter ego either so....*shrug*).
Honestly, I would rather they just come out and say he is in ME3 from the start of their promotions, so we can get some nice hi-res movies and trailers, and also so we don't have to worry so much this time
