But, Garrus. Garrus, But. Garrus's Butt.

I like the way your mind works.

I really don't understand with all those super advance technologies in ME universe where a person can even be revived from nothing but burnt flesh and tubes, why there is no anti-anaphylactic-shock shot or at least some shots or pills that temporary raise your resistance against anaphylaxis? hell! why not going through the bio-engineering so one can ingests consumes dextro foods and liquid drinks? from the codex, i know that adding a tail,claws or whatever a human don't have to begins with and making hybrid are illegal, but i'm sure something like changing one's amino acid intake from levo to dextro and vice-versa is legal right?

[Flammie]

Oh, I'd love to get some pictures of it if you manage to do that enormousmoonboots, if you don't mind.

It's sappy picture time. :I


Garrus thanks for killing my artist' block a bit. I haven't drawn anything serious in months.

If I know anything about this is that not everyone is allergic to the same things. Maybe only certain humans are allergic to Turians. Shepard might NOT be one of them. I like to believe that she isn't and I like to believe Garrus isn't allergic to humans either and yes I think that Garrus should have told Shepard what he thought of that experience.

The thing is, I really wanted Shepard to be allergic to turians because I didn't want everything to work out in a nice neatly bundled package.  They're two different species.  Everything should not be automatically hunky-dory, there are things that could go horribly horribly wrong. A presented obstacle that turns out to be nothing doesn't do anything for me. 

Unfortunately,  like I said before: because of the weird ScienceFails I have to assume it went right.  I still want there to be at least some complication though, so I like to imagine that the chafing is pretty significant, and that two nights of smexytime in a row leads to some fairly serious pain for Shepard.  Little obstacle, nothing too serious, but it makes me happier than sunshine and butterflies and puppies that poop starbursts.

(....I really like starbursts.)

I can imagine complications too. According to the codex Turians have some sharp edges on their arms and legs. I can imagine that if Garrus isn't careful he could cut Shepard. Then there's also the chafing thing. I'm just glad that the relationship won't end because someone is allergic to someone. That would be annoying and depressing, one of the greatest romances ending because someone could die because of it. Then there's also the social complications. There's all the human bigots like that news reporter and then there's the Turians too. However I think it's humans that will get more involved in that. Garrus isn't exactly the best known Turian.

[danitiwa]

Speaking of which, interesting question there was a funny comic about. Do the other species actually kiss like humans or do they just get close to each other like in the Garrus/Shepard romance scene? For Turians it's probably not even possible, because their exterior is pretty hard, they have like an exoskeleton or something.

I can never keep up with you guys! You're always talking about something different. XD

I always hang at really slow forums.

...All this talk of the different complications is making me imagine them in action. And turning me on. It's also made me think of the fact Garrus came up to Shepard's cabin to make love to her after all the talk beforehand.

It's a nice picture, danitiwa.

This thread always seems to accelerate when I should be sleeping. But it always slows down when I should be awake. That's quite annoying

Yeah, but it's worth it to be able to talk to people on the other side of the world, right? I believe that it is ****ING AWESOME that right now someone hundreds/thousands of miles away from me is sharing in some good old fashion Garrus squee. 

Garrus brings people together.  I think we need to inform the leaders of the world.

Yeah... it's nice to think that I'm talking to people from all sorts of places that share the same interests, as well as some nearer to me. It's slower when I'm awake, but there's still interaction.

Oh... and I always write everybody's username in full. I dunno, I just don't feel I should shorten it.

...Reading Xsause's Fail for the Lost (Sorry, haven't read it in ages, had to catch up, but it's still hilarious), there should have totally been an option in Garrus's recruitment for Shepard to stay with Garrus whilst the two squad members go seal the shutters themselves. It can't be that hard for them.

Yeah, but it's a pity that most of the active Garruslovers live 6 hours away from me .

But of course it's awesome we get to talk about Garrus with people from all over the world. Gotta love the internet, the best invention ever.

While we're at it, let's put some international Garruslove in this thread: Ik hou van Garrus.

Sharp edges? hurm...i don't remember seeing that in the codex, gonna re-read it again soon.I'm sure Shepard will be fine! with all those badass skin weave upgrades, i don't think she is "squishy" and fragile to let something petty such as accidental cuts or chafing to hurt her.As for the reporter...if she shows her face in front of me again in ME3,i gonna shove my boot in her mouth and if she got the quads to insults Garrus and Shepard's relationship, it will be a shotgun in her mouth instead of the boot.

@Flammie, lol it's fine, I don't mind. Just trying to make everyone else's lives easier. I read your fanfic "Goodbyes" and I think it's the best one I've read for a few years. (Fan fic I mean.) I could actually see it going on in game and all the characters are pretty appropriately scripted. Nice work, I'll get down to reading the second one tommorow though. I'm not supposed to be up this late. X_X I'm screwing my sleep cycle over thanks to this thread.

Go here and read the first paragraph in Turian Biology. It mentions the "sharp edges".

I also doubt Shepard would care about getting cut while doing it with Garrus. She might care the next day but even so she died once already. What's a cut compared to that?

If turians were that sharp, they couldn't wear clothes*. They have some kind of small arm/elbow spikes (Garrus's light armor in ME1 even conforms to them), but they can't be sharp enough to do that much damage; I don't think the Codex says that.

Turians exhibit the characteristics of predators rather than those of
prey species (compare to krogan
biology). Their forward-facing alert eyes give the impression that
they possess outstanding eyesight and their teeth and jaws mimic the
structures possessed by apex predators such as crocodiles or ancient,
carnivorous dinosaurs. Needless to say, their talons on both their feet
and hands seem capable of ripping flesh. Their slender bodies also seem
to suggest that they are also capable of moving at high speeds.

Nothing about sharp edges, just that their talons look pointy.

I certainly hope that Shepard isn't allergic to him. Possible chafing and cuts and bruises is one thing, but if she's actually allergic to him then I can't imagine them ever, ever having enjoyable sex. Their relationship is complicated enough as it is, it really doesn't need to be that bad.

[Xsause]

My views on the complications that could occur with Garrus/FemShep (just me talking out of my backside though, so comment if I'm wrong):

Mordin doesn't say it's impossible, and he's got diagrams and everything, so a successful turian/human hookup/relationship has definitely happened before. Anaphylactic shock is one of the possible reactions to ingesting turian tissue, but it doesn't necessarily have to happen (Mordin said it was possible, not that it would happen no matter what). I do think, however, that Shepard would have allergic reactions if she ever tried...you know...ingesting. Yeah. And maybe the chafing thing could be less of a problem with the oils and ointments Mordin says he can provide.

Sialater wrote...
And if you were going to have a reaction to Garrus AT ALL... ingestion IS NOT the only way to do so.  He'd better have a turian condom, is all I'm saying.

I totally agree with this. After all, if you're planning to go all Kirk on an alien (Boldly coming where no one has ever gone before!), and you've been told it could be dangerous, wouldn't you rather wear/have your alien lover wear a condom/whatever kind of protection it is they'll have in the twenty-second century?

I think the biggest thing they'd have to worry about is the cultural differences between turians and humans.

Scandinavian languages are awesome. It sounds extremely funny. I have a Swedish movie on DVD, the language makes it even better for me.

Sexytime complications: Shepard survived ryncol. That makes me believe she can handle almost everything. Or at least, that's what I want to believe.

Quarians have lips and you can hear kissing sounds if you romance Tali. Drell have lips and Shepard and Thane kiss in their romance.

For Turians it's probably not even possible, because their exterior is pretty hard, they have like an exoskeleton or something.

Head bumping might be the equivalent of kissing. *shrug*

[Flammie]

Thanks, danitiwa, it's always nice to hear positive feedback.

enormousmoonboots, that is a filthy generalisation. I smiled, not giggled. To be honest, I probably wouldn't have reacted if you didn't call it out, so you're partly to blame. I'm not THAT out of control, even for a 15-year-old. Which makes me feel a lot better. I wonder why you called out me out of all of the fans in here *whistles*

I'm pwitty *cough* sure they'd have heavily improved birth control in the future. Probably will have advanced beyond condoms.

Would you have giggled if a person wasn't called out?

I doubt it'd be as extreme as saying turians are so sharp that they shouldn't be wearing clothes. I mean, we don't know how well clothes have advanced in the future, so perhaps clothes have become more resillient.

Though, I'm not sure what they did before they started becoming more and more advanced and improved, so maybe turians did walk around naked on Palaven, before they started thinking of armour and covering themselves up to preserve the innocence of the other alien races.

...Alright, I admit, I smiled. I must be more of a stereotypical schoolgirl than I thought.

Damn I was wrong again. I guess pointy doesn't always mean sharp, there's still chafing as a complication though. Well at least Garrus is still awesome.
