Not everyone chooses that dialogue option when talking to Parasini, but yeah.

I think some people make the mistake that because the dialogue option exists, the opinion contained within is canon. For instance, I don't tell Parasini about where I see Shepard going in the future. Perhaps my Shepard does plan on fighting the good fight until the very end.

*shrug* It's canon for their Shep.  Neither of mine want to keep up this pace, either, but they'll do what they have to do.

Well, the distinction between their Shepard/my Shepard is kind of the point. It's not just the Parasini dialogue, it's more general than that. The dialogue might exist, but if I don't choose that dialogue, then the opinions contained within have no bearing on my Shepard's story. I've just seen some people act like because the dialogue exists, it must be true even if you didn't pick that dialogue.

Its a great story, but if you don't want to end up feeling like crap for the next two days then i suggest not reading it 

I don't care about feeling like crap, we have a remedy for that and it's called Xsause's fanfics. But when that fic was posted in this thread, I looked at it and it's looooong... I will read it, but not now

I think it was boots who made the good point of saying that really, there is no way to pin down a One True Garrus because depending on  what options were chosen, depends on the Garrus you get.
This kind of ties in with that too.  So I totally agree, that if your Shepard never got the option to say it, it never happened.  Like, I wanted to Renegade Kaiden, but I never got the chance, so in Steph's PT, it never happened (SAD! I love that convesation!)

This is me agreeing with you.

I would love to see that movie.

I could just imagine that....garrus is the clint eastwood of 2185

He'd have to sing for it though. (The movie, I mean.)

Not if he's tone-deaf.

Which would be hilarious.

That makes me wonder. What kind of music do you think people would listen to at that time?

How different would human music would be? I heard that asari loves human music.

How is turian, asari, krogan, salarian, batarian music different from humans?

[enormousmoonboots]

I keep saying it: turian blues. The flange is perfect.



(though when I read Stephi's post I was honestly picturing that one sequence from Hellboy, except with Garrus and Thane)

Well, if the club music is anything to go by, not all that different from what we'd listen to today. Except that they also seem to have "sensory" bands like the one mentioned on Samara's LM (Excel 10? Was that the name?). I'm guessing that involves some sort of sensory stimulation alongside the music. How it works is anybody's guess.

As for symphonic music (if that still exists), any race with only 3 fingers (ie. most of them, plus hanar) would have limited aptitude for some instruments. They wouldn't be able to play woodwind instruments or the piano. Or at least, not the same way as a five-fingered race could.

Not what kind of human music turians would like....but what they would listen to in general. Maybe they are like us and have thousands of different genres that they listen to. Having humans entering the galaxy i bet that probably has increased, maybe they mixed certain human genres with their own.

I'm not even sure Turians would have wood wind type intstruments.

I mean... most instruments in one way or another copy the human voice (in whole sorts of ranges).
That's with humans.  But turians... their mouth structure doesn't work with the blowing of air into something... it's got too much open space (I wonder what kind of mechanism they have to combat dry mouth? XD)

Blues does fit Turians pretty well, witht he flange.  But I wonder what other types of instruments their culture would like?  Drums probably.  They could do lute/guitar type stuff, but it might just be finagled differently.

[Steel Dancer]

Interesting point. With only 3 fingers would more of those races music be based around vocal and percussive styles?

EDit: the geth mini-arc in the Armstrong cluster from ME1 has something about quarian singing doesn't it?

I think the flange would make for great Tuvan-style throat singing.

I bet the salarians have perfected the art of the one-man band. The more intricate, the better.

Maybe he'll try to serenade Shepard.  He heard human women liked that kind of thing.

Wave manipulation devices. Like the theremin.

I think going by Afterlife and the music thing, asari seem to have a fetish for humans, period.

[Mr.BlazenGlazen]

String instruments might be hard for turians especially. Call me weird but i was thinking about this. I'm a guitarist and i was thinking that if turians were to attempt to play the guitar or some other string instrument they would need a thumb or a supporting finger to hold the neck. That only leaves them with two fingers to move around the frets, thats twice as less efficient to humans. They could still try but it would be hard as hell.



Percussionist and maybe keyboards i would understand. I would imagine that their drummers would do something similar to what human tribal rituals would be like, maybe different. I would also imagine being good vocalists because of the resonance in their voice. With that being said i wouldn't be suprised if turians were just as interested in human genres ranging from Metal, rock, jazz, blues, classical, techno and etc as asari are. Assuming those genres still exist in the future.

Ah yes, that's a very good point, I'd forgotten about their mouth structure. It would be even more of an issue for elcor, for example. I can totally see elcor and percussive instruments, btw.

Throat singing for turians also sounds interesting.

Quarian music would probably be electronic. Oh great...now I can't help associating them with Daft Punk, with those masks of theirs

As for salarians, if Mordin is any indication, they at least enjoy human-type music.

Can you blame them? We look more like the asari than any other currently-known species.

Quarians will totally love Daft Punk.  Everybody will love Daft Punk.

*imagines Tali dancing to Robot Rock*

Although that would also totally work for Legion. Assuming geth have any kind of interest in music, of course. Which is probably unlikely.

Asari would totally love Daft Punk as well, after seeing the videos from Discovery.
