On what attracted me to the Garrus romance?  Can I just say ditto.  I agree with just about everything that has As
True, my Shepard probably wouldn't give a Vorcha's ass what anyone thought of their relationship, after all it's not really anyone's business.  Bringing a kid into the mix though might change things because then it's not just between Shep and Garrus.

I vote for ambiguous riding off into the sunset ending as an option.  



Yes I don't want to have to have kids to be with Garrus  , I would prefer the focus to be on them as a couple and then have their story end ambiguously so that it would please everyone. People who like the kid thing will be able to pretend their shep adopted, grew a hybrid abomination in a jar (Posted Image) whatever, and those who don't like the life scriptTM thing can pretend they lived as a pair of childfree spectres , kicking ass and having lots of sex.  So yes ,  an ambiguous ending please.

Out of curiosity, does anybody know what happens, or if there's a scene if Garrus's vital signs drop to 0 whilst recruiting him. I'm curious, but I'd rather not inflict that on him.


Critical mission failure.  Shepard cannot live without the awesome that is Garrus :crying:


He's the only with a health meter in his mission, too.

Well, *cough* I'm actually a teenage male, even if all my posts so far might seem like a stereotypical Garrus fanwoman. Not exactly the most comforting thought to you all, I know. If it makes you feel better just pretend I'm a fangirl. Doesn't affect me too much.
If you're going to recruit Garrus, I guess it makes sense that the mission fails if he dies. I don't like seeing him die, though. It's somtimes slightly arousing when he falls in the middle of battle, but you can medi-gel him then, so everything's good. But that's still quite freaky.
Garrus is also the only recruit you have who's really in trouble. Miranda just can't seem to die, Jacob's already part of the team, Mordin stays in his clinic, Jack's too busy screaming and rushing forwards killing things to get hit, Grunt's in a tank, you just pick Zaeed up, Samara's busy sitting already killing somebody up ahead or sitting in the station, Tali's locked in an observatory, Thane's already hiding up some pipe in the final room and you just transport Legion to the ship. Garrus is the only one in trouble, with a health bar, and the only person you should truly be worried about, which makes him more awesome. Save him or let your conscience haunt you forever.
I don't think Shepard and Garrus's happy ending should be too ambiguous, however. Sure, don't make it too definite with babies, proposal, marriage or even one's untimely death (which I would hate the most), but I'd like to know that, for example, they're in love, they're happy, and such other things that define a deep and successful relationship.

Holy cow! Keener does this turian's voice too! And he's got blue tats, but they're not Garrus like. I just came across him in the Wards. Oo

Ignore the shotgun... it was all I could do to get a close up -.-
Plus the conversation he's having with the human is all about getting a refund.  Hehe, very cute.  Wonder if it's Garrus in disguise?!  Nah... but funny to think about.

I'd never even thought about letting Garrus's vital signs drop to 0. Maybe it's a nonstandard game-over...? Or you don't get to recruit him? Huh. Good luck finding someone that it's happened to on here, though. Too much Garrus love (is there such a thing?)



Kim Shepard: =^_^= That's too adorable for words.



Flammie: We have no prob having guy Garrus fans on here. Come on down, actually! And I think that you hit on what Hyrule_Gal meant- that there should be at least some kind of "looking off into the sunset" or whatever, with a few lines of dialog cementing the relationship. Just no "and then they got married, somehow had little hybrid babies and killed Reapers happily forever after."



Also, there's a turian you run into on Omega- the lower part of Afterlife where the batarian bartender poisons you. The turian in question mentions having a "mate". One he apparently didn't really feel like bringing along to Omega. It strikes me that turians may well not really get 'married' in that sense. And it always made more sense to me that FemShep and Garrus wouldn't feel a really powerful need to bother with ceremonies or anything, especially with their vastly different cultures.

Wow, nice find. Nice how you describe the turian as having a conversation with "the human" about "getting a refund" when you're pointing a shotgun at him.

I don't think there's such thing as too much Garrus love. Unless somehow the love overloads and kills him. But he's too awesome for that to happen to him. Be a bit embarassing if that happened to him right in the middle of the battle with the Reaper at the end of ME2, too.

Glad nobody's uncomfortably with a guy Garrus fan with the same feelings and obsessions as the rest of you. Lovely to be here.

Y'know, I don't think anybody's talked about turian mating and how to finalise their love and such. It'd be nice to get some information on it in ME3.

May count as cementing it too far, but it'd be downright adorable if Garrus decided to try and adapt to human culture, despite if turian love is different, got down on one knee and proposed to Shepard whilst on a date.

Actually, we should get a bit of dating in ME3. Just basically kick out the third party member and have if just Garrus and Shepard, or whatever other relationships there are.

Forget about Garrus why can't we use that for Jack?!

I got all excited because I thought maybe someone had done a new texmod to fix his armor.  But it looks like xbox?

Curse you Umanix for playing with my emotions :P

I don't know if it'll be included in the Kasumi DLC, but allegedly it's released around the same time as Kasumi. Garrus, Thane and Jack are supposed to get some alternate costumes in this specific pack.

Fixed armor. FIXED ARMOR. I...I just...yay. <3 More Thane and Jack outfits are lovely, too.

@ ELE08 - D'awwww, I do it because I care! <3

And I could be the flexible turian recon scout making love to the long-reach Garrus in my quarters whilst typing this. Don't get too envious, human women.

Fixed armour for Garrus would be beyond amazing. Anybody also notice Jack's costume is different from what I remember of her two normal costumes?

Fixed armour <3

If it's DLC or something, which would be likely if it's on the Xbox, then it should be available for the PC, too. Or you could protest or something.

Did anyone else think it was adorable when Garrus kneels to speak with Fade's volus contact? Garrus is badass, but still polite.

I felt like such a boss keeping him from dipping below 75% on Insanity. LOVE = VALIDATED

@stephi: I thought that guy sounded familiar! If you're snapshotting turians on the Citadel, the C-Sec turian arguing with the Hanar has similar tats to Lorik Qu'in.

New Armor: Gamefaqs, huh? Can we revive Aeris in this DLC, too?

I'll believe it when I see screenshots outside of the squad screen; Garrus's is just a reskin of his undamaged armor but Jack's is entirely new meshes, which modders can't do yet.

If this were true, I would have to fight you. To determine whose flexibility is greater, of course.

Is it sad that I kind of want Jack's outfit from that pic for my Fem!Shep now? It would actually make her look like a credible leader of a sniper motorcycle gang if she had that outfit.

From the screenshots that person put up it seemed to be a seperate download like the other Cerberus stuff (its listed in its own category).  If its real I hope it comes out at the same time as the Hammerhead though.

He kneeled down when talking to the volus for you? I thought he was standing up...

Eh, I guess I'll have to check when I get ME1 and do a whole FemShep faithfully in love with Garrus and nobody else run. If I remember.

I'd quite like to have FemShep wear Jack's costume, too. It's also nice that Jack gets a tiny bit more protection than that harness she wears and a pair of trousers. And bring it, I can bend in more than one way, how about you?

But how much of a poser does he look in his luminous blue? B)

If anybody's a poser because of luminesence, it'd be Grunt. I mean, he's even got a luminous bellybutton.

Well, I've found that we all quite like Garrus's romance because they've have a deep, meaningful friendship, first. Does anybody also find Garrus, or turians in general, quite attractive, or hot?

Also, what team does everybody use the most for missions? Unless you don't use Garrus, I don't think the third needs to be specified. I think I'm going to use Miranda more, after finding out how she screws the Illusive Man over in the end.

Some people believe that turians are more open about sex in general, but I don't really get that impression when dealing with Garrus, anyway.  He sounds slightly embarrassed when he talks about his liason with that female turian.  He shuts the door when discussing whether or not Shepard really wants to go through with this, and seems very awkward talking about "blowing off steam" with her, using just about every means he can to skirt around calling it what it is.  Given that, I doubt he's super-promiscuous, but I also doubt that his involvement with that one turian was the only one he ever had (though that might depend on the playthrough and how you've dealt with Garrus--who knows?).

The way I interpret it, maybe when a turian takes a "mate" it's a more serious situation than just having a fling.  But, we don't know if there's anything intermediate between "friends" and "mate."  Do turians have girlfriends/boyfriends or are those also mates, only on a more temporary basis?

Garrus is already pretty keen on human linguistics, or he seems to be (maybe turians do this in general since Garrus seems to be very aware of metaphors and euphemisms--it's just that he's more familiar with things humans say as slang/idioms/etc.).  I imagine that means he isn't too ignorant of human culture (aside from maybe what to say when trying to flirt), but I still don't really see him wanting to marry Shepard.  I don't really think they'll get a fairytale ending even if you stick with him as a love interest.

I'm kind of with the group that thinks maybe Garrus and Shep shouldn't even adopt--they're two people in dangerous careers.  Unless they settle down to a quiet life after the Reapers are dealt with, their lives wouldn't be all that suitable for being parents.  Neither of them could be there for the child.  (And I'm assuming adoption, not some bioengineered hybrid--I don't even think it's possible for there to be a hybrid due to the levo- vs. dextro-based lifeforms thing.)  And really... can you see either of them settling down?  For Garrus there's just too much injustice left in the galaxy to settle down, unless he's just so severely injured in ME3 that he's forced to do so.

I think it's just like with humans. Having a fling can be fun and easy, unless it's with a friend, in which case there's a lot more baggage to consider. Blech at the use of the word "mate."

Bah I wish some badass outfit for my Femshep aswell! She looks like some space geek with that *greasy looking hair* stucked in some bushy ponytail and that armor which is good but I am getting jealous of watching Samara and Miranda running in "sexy" outfits. Have always some feeling aswell that if my femshep let her hair down for a minute that she will be bald or something because having your hair like that for 2 years... xD...She is a damn Spectre, they should look badass... I like this new fixed outfit for Garrus and I think this could be DLC thing :). Garrus can't go on party with broken armor! xD

I'm not arguing that Garrus should get married or have kids with Shepard, I was just stating that as a hypothetical situation, it would be quite adorable and heartwarming if Garrus did propose to Shepard, even if I think that'd go too far.

Perhaps Garrus is just outright awkward about that fact that he's dating and sleeping in a serious, deep relationship with his commander, who he's been friends with for quite a long time, not counting the two years Shepard's spent dead. He even says he hasn't got a fetish for humans, so I don't think this romance can just be a fling, since it can't work that way, I think the relationship will develop a lot beyond more than just a fling. And I guess language has gone so far that "mate" can seem quite ambiguous.

I think when you've known humans for a long time and such, you start to pick up on their sland, realise the implications of certain statements, it's just a case of whether you decide to use it yourself or not.

Even with their large responsibilities, I'd like to see Garrus and Shepard settle down a bit, and really start to realise what they mean to each other, fall deeply in love and such. I just love their relationship and the likely direction so much, as well as Garrus himself.

Also, _epoch, I've actually found and used your Garrus theme a while ago today. I love it.
