you're a SAINT

thank you so much for posting these!

I think I've listened to "yeah definitely" about...20 times now.

Hm. Aside from the starter conversation, Garrus' romance didn't seem very sexual to me even though they were discussing sex during the whole thing. Well I guess I would call it sexual, but not, ah, "sexy". I didn't get much of a lust vibe except for a couple of instances, but I suppose that's just me. The rest of it was strangely romantic, if that makes any sense.

Interesting that the entire romance subplot is focused on sex, but his final romance scene ended up being the least sexiest. Not that I'm complaining. I'd prefer something sweet over something like Miranda's scene.

I love Garrus's convo choices. He def has the whole sly/sarcastic vibe in a lot of them. I love it. Thane's much more subtle, in everything he says.

I'd say it's exactly the opposite. Thane is eloquent and says exactly what he means. His romance isn't really subtle at all. Garrus, however, never seems to know what the hell he's trying to say.

Unless you were talking about their normal conversations. Then I see what you mean.

I think I've said it before, but I really like that the arc feels more down to earth with Garrus. For you to go from "hey, wanna do it?" to "do you -really- want to do it?" to "oh man I can't believe we're going to do it, this is awesome" in three conversations makes more sense to me than "this is me, everything I'm about," to "hey you're kind of attractive" to "You are the Love of my Life and I've Never Felt This Way Before." The benefit of meeting a character in one game and romancing them in the next, I guess.

I must have replayed the one romance conversation 3x just to hear him say, "Riiight...because I'm in a great place to optimize firing algorithms right now."  (Ooh...I distracted him! )

Yea was referring to the normal conversations, not the romance ones.  Sorry, shoulda made the clarification.

Garrus gets most of the fun one liners, that's for sure.
Gah, ok, I need something for a pick me up.  I'm looking for the perfect clip, which caused me to look at all the death scenes, and I came across the Garrus getting snagged by the swarm one.
I almost cried.  NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

"You know me, I like to savor the last shot before popping the heat sink" LOL!!!



After watching the full romance scene/buildup in detail, I'm starting to understand how he became my wife's shepard's LI.

Dunno if this has been posted here, but I found it too silly not to post.

Hello, ladies, look at your man, and now back to me. Now back at your man, and now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if you stop using ladies scented body wash and switch to Old Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re on the Normandy with the Turian your man could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have a heat sink with two pops to savor that thing you love. Look at it again, the heatsinks are now diamonds. Anything is possible when your man smells like Old Spice and not a lady. I cause chafing.

(For those who don't get it, see this commercial.)

Agreed. I do like Thane's romance, but I can't help but feel that it moves too quickly. By the end they try to make it seem like he's madly in love with Shepard, but they haven't known each other that long. ...Then again Jacob tells Shepard he loves her, and that makes FAR less sense.

I lol'd as well.  But when I see that commercial, I always think of Derp'y Jacob.

Like seriously... that commercial sums up the Jacob-mance for me.

Yep. 
At least it's a lot more gradual with the first game's LIs, with more
plot-based interactions going on.  Ashley/Kaiden getting saved by you
twice, Liara mind melding with you a couple of times.  They didn't have
enough of that in ME2, which is why I think the limited progress of your
relationship with Garrus makes more sense.

Heh, I was gonna say 'I thought we'd achieved the consensus that Jacob was the Old Spice commecial', but I see Stephi beat me to it.

I will never understand the appeal of Old Spice, though. Smells way too much like a basement full of six guys who haven't showered nearly recently enough. That is a smell I get far too much of already.

By the by...I noticed that thread that pointed out that people have been roleplaying Mass Effect characters on twitter and such (woohoo for Garrus being at the top of the list lol).

Anyway, from Garrus' twitter, I happened upon this.
 

How's Shepard's `flexibility'?
I dunno, how's your `shut up'?

...ask him about calibrations and elevators.

Ahhahahahah thank you Aznso!  I needed the laugh after all that death viddage.

As for Twitter RPs, I like this one a little better. It's more established.

There's a nice little series of questions near the beginning regarding why he's wearing the visor in the romance scene, but the site's being stubbon for me and not loading questions past a certain point.

[Splinter Cell 108]

LOL I wonder who's writing that. Someone should ask him about his scars.

Haha, cute.  Yea, it was a good chapter.  I like the story, there's things I love about it, but some things that make me facepalm or cringe.  All in all though, it's entertaining.

[OneBadAssMother]

Jacob uses the L word?! No wonder my wifey dumped him. Kinda like how I hated Miranda's romance cause she sprung the L word heh. Too inappropriate.

Holy crap, 286 questions.

[enormousmoonboots]

Worse, Jacob only says he loves you if you REJECT him in the final scene. Desperate, much? And both of those relationships are so shallow I don't really get where it's coming from.



Even across gender lines, it's clear the romances were supposed to fill similar slots--

Hot flings: Miranda and Jacob

Tragic romances: Jack and Thane

Cute, friendship-based love: Tali and Garrus

I think all of the romances in ME2 have a lot of relationship progress, Garrus' included. Some just portray it differently than others.

I suppose it's true that although Thane and Jacob haven't known Shepard for very long, extreme circumstances can certainly bring two people closer together in a short period of time. So it isn't too far-fetched.

...I still don't like Jacob's "I love you" line, though. And even though I hate his romance, I don't think it's a fling. It definitely has the least substance out of all the options, but I got the distinct impression that he wants to have an actual relationship with Shepard.

Here's the thing that I don't understand about that line. On one hand, it really does seem like he's only saying it because he wants to get into her pants. On the other hand, I'd like to think that BioWare wouldn't actually make a guy like that a love interest and expect the players to appreciate it. Which would mean that when he said "I love you", he meant it. Which makes no damn sense because Garrus and Thane are far more likely to actually be in love with Shepard at that point and yet neither of them even come close to saying it. I suppose actions are more important than words, though.

Anyone know what Miranda's reaction is if you reject her in the final scene?

Haha!!! LOLOL! Damn, that's bad. Reminds me of the romance of Star Wars Episode 2: Complete awkwardness and LOLs!

Very good analysis actually.
