Oh, Xsause. While we are on banners:
Clan Vakarian: Because our love of Garrus and alcohol will never die.
(we came up with that one while you were AWOL. This made us sad. lol)
All that talk of turian/human marriage reminded me of a skit from a few hundred pages back, where Garrus heard he needed to give Shepard a rock as a sign of committment. He spent several days scouring the beaches to find one that was juuuuust right.
Shepard: It's... a very nice rock, Garrus.
Garrus: Is that a yes?
Shepard: ...a yes... to...rocks?
Garrus: But Joker told me - dammit.
Or something. Made me lol. Also, was reminded of a crackfic I read where Shep and Garrus got engaged, and there were all kinds of turian customs Shepard couldn't get her head around. (Was that one of yours, Xsause?)
I read a book where the 2 main characters decided to get married (they were both sailors who had adventures on the high seas), and were both from quite well to do families, but had rebelled. They sailed about together (scandalous!) and fully intended to get married, but his family wouldn’t approve, and in any case they were too busy sailing, so they sort of left it that they were almost married. I realised as I was reading it that it’s where I see my FemShep and Garrus after all this blows over. The intention is there, but they are too busy living life together to bother with formality.
I loved the alien language discussion from earlier. Language fascinates me (like how some languages can express ideas impossible to express in other languages... they are how we shape our reality, and therefore perception, etc. Sadly, I don't think we'll be meeting any sentient or sapiant alien beings in our lifetimes... and if we do, chances are they'll mine all our minerals and make off with them, leaving us depleated. O-o
