Yeah, I know there are people out there who consider the Garrus romance a 'fling'. They obviously haven't paid enough attention to the build up and the romance scene.

Anyway, I just read an article about women with high-pitched voices tend to fall for (deep-voiced) manly men. So, who are the girls here with a high-pitched voice?

High pitched voices?  I must be weird then since I'm an alto and I prefer lower voices.

If anyone's interested, I posted a new Captain's Log. Link's in my sig. It's about my Shep's waking up and her arrival on Omega looking for Archangel.

Not me, I'm borderline alto/tenor (my sister actually SANG Tenor in her high school choir and we're indistinguishable vocally).  My husband's voice is pretty deep.

I guess I should also add the fact that I'm bisexual. I like my women to sound like women and my men to sound like men. Garrus is all male.

[RPGmom28]

I've been told I have a lower ranged kind of husky voice, and I'm married to a man with an extremely low, deep voice. Don't know much about science, but Garrus has a voice that makes me want to pounce.

[Nevara]

Oh Garrus's voice absolutely makes me purr w/ delight!

As for the biological bit, I love the "I don't have a human fetish I SWEAR" line, because it's subtly saying "It's OK if it's you." I wrote a fic where Garrus is mentally worrying about not feeling physically attracted to her for just that reason- biologically and naturally it's his own species' females he's attracted to. But in the end, it's the psychological desire (dare we say the L word?) that brings him about.  Eventually I think the auto-physical attraction would follow.

Linky?

.......Okay. It was my first fanfic EVER, and I've been thinking very seriously about redoing it entirely. YOu know, perfecting the art of my Garrus love and all that. But here it is (and it is rated M for " Man, if you're not into adult situations and xenophilia do NOT click this link!!")

There's nothing wrong with it.  I'd only suggest you fix a few rough transitions.  But other than that, I liked it!  And I marked you as a fave author.

You know what.
I wish I had a WIN picture to celebrate this perfect adornment of our shrine 
That was.. totally hot zffomg *foam*
Don't beat yourself over the "first fanfic" thing, this is sublime.

If I remember correctly, this was the first Garrus fanfic I read. lol. I loved it.

[RPGmom28]

I also loved this fic. It was everything we wanted to happen instead of a mere headbump.

[Nevara]

I don't like implications but I don't like being beat over the head w/ the obvious either... that's what makes the obscene imagination all the sweeter... 

[Nilfalasiel]

@ aynxalot: That was a great read (whew, is it hot in here?). I'm always wary about bedroom scenes, because people tend to use the same clichéed expressions and are sometimes too graphic, but you managed to navigate it quite well and make it believable, very sexy and emotional.

@ Sia Later: Interesting take on things. I wouldn't have imagined Shep considering suicide, but it works in context. And your description of Jacob =  I just have a bit of a problem with the pacing: it feels slightly rushed. It might have worked even better if you'd made it into a longer piece (a couple of chapters maybe) and fleshed out Shep's reactions. Her waking up, her reactions to Jacob and Miranda...all that would deserve more screentime. Either that, or only focus on the Omega excursion itself and condense the whole thing. Just my opinion though.

I'm currently drafting ideas for my own fic, but it's going to take a while before I deem it worthy to see the light of day. Or the light of the Internet, I guess.

@ AngryP1xel: Lol..."wargl" is just an expression of panic. I tend to think of strange onomatopoeias.

Concerning voices, Garrus' one is definitely "mrrrrrrrrr" worthy. Dunno that my voice is particularly high-pitched though. It's loud, but that's about it.

It's actually just one in a series.  The rest of them are on there on the main page. 

As far as rushing, I was trying to capture Meghan's indifference to current events and the fact that until I get Garrus, I don't actually care about ME2.

Well, you'll find no lack of betas here on this thread, ready to proofread in advance!

Dat Sialater,she does some awesome fic'ing.   I think....is it Silentstephi who's writing one that we're waiting on? I think so. I don't mean to lay on the pressure (write, Stephi!!!!), but I have been feeling a jones for new fics lately.

Thanks!  

And yes, Stephi needs to hurry.

I'm working on it!

I'm not like some fic writers where it comes naturally.  I have to wring my muse's neck before he throws up anything.  (Plus been studying... which is weird... having not had to do it in years.)
So I should have something to show soon.
Honest.
In the mean time...

He wants you to come here... XD

I always thought that was the soprano/bass complex (was a soprano in HS XD  Bass guys get me all hot an' bothered.  Tenors are goofs.)

And my voice can probably be put in the mid to high range, but the decible volume can vary between conversational to ear blasting in 2.5 seconds flat.  -.-

As for the appeal of Keener's voice for Garrus... he just sounds like a sexy man.  Even without the flange effect.  I don't consider his voice all that deep either.  It's a bit nasal sometimes.  I think it's the rumbles though.  He's got that natural rumble to his voice. 

[Flammie]

I'm curious about Collider's piece, as well.

Curious. Apparently I used to have a very high pitched voice (and abused it) when I was young, but it's broken quite a bit, now.

No idea about the different name ranges, though (I mean tenor, alto, etc...)
