Kasumi's Line About People Wanting Shepard And Garrus To Be Together Is So Cute Because I Just Know That

Kasumi's line about people wanting Shepard and Garrus to be together is so cute because I just know that the people on the normandy were shipping them so hard and they knew before Shepard and Garrus even really comprehended their own feeling as romantic

Silly bird fellow and his silly character lore

this has probably already been spoken to death about on here, but despite mass effect being a huge part of my life for over a decade, I've not really yapped about it online

as much as i adore Garrus with every fibre of my being, there's a part of me that is actually glad we can't romance him in me1. If you ignore the initial reasoning behind why we can't, it works out so well for their relationship in the long run

when shepard first meets garrus, they are on uneven grounds. They fall into a form of mentor and protégé style of friendship, garrus looks up to shepard and comes to her for answers. She's been through a lot, so he wants shep's point of view that's been forged from her own experiences on the battlefield. Paragon or renegade, its safe to assume the events in shepard's chosen backstories helped push her into either direction.

Then she dies and he is left behind, then Omega happens. 2 years worth of mourning. 11 people to mourn in such a short span of time, all things considered. Shepard and his team snatched away from him without warning. That would change anyone to lose that amount of people so quickly.

Death changes people and shepard and garrus, for better or worse, are forced through that change 2 years later

So by the time shepard and garrus are reunited, they are now on equal ground. He no longer comes to shepard for answers. He's already gotten them from his own experiences. The same way she did before the hunt for saren. He doesn't need her answers anymore, he doesn't question the morality of his past missions, that's long since been cemented into his mind after shepards death and sidonis.

Back on the SR-1, garrus was lagging slightly behind her, but now on the SR-2? now they are truly side by side, on the battlefield and through this learnt experience.

imo this makes his romance even stronger than if we could romance him in the first game. because it really is strangers -> friends -> lovers in its purest form in my eyes.

i’ve made another one

More Ghostsoap Fallout Shenanigans!!

They are in the process of getting to know either other's characters, Ghost is having a hard time figuring Soap out.

I haven't finished labeling my tissues but I want to drop whatever thoughts and brainrot I have for AceYuu and Adeuyuu right now. There will be spoilers!!

Ace kind of showed a homie move when Riddle talked crap to Yuu in Heartslabyul chapter because they were magicless and then Ace punched him and proceeded to spew shounen protag dialogue. I was like "okay, maybe Ace isn't that terrible." Because we all hated Ace on the prologue. Then him and Deuce slowly got to warm up to Yuu during Savannaclaw and Octavinelle where they volunteered to be on Ramshackle's team and offered Yuu a place to stay. Ace teasing Yuu that they would want to sleep together in a rather suggestive tone kinda made me 😳 that's coming from the guy who asked to sleep with you on the first day of school because he ate tarts.

It all became obvious that Adeuce cared a lot about Yuu when they came to help Yuu who was stuck in Scarabia. If they didn't think Yuu was their friend they wouldn't go through the lengths of using public transportation and they could have made up an excuse to not go because it was the holidays. We can see how far Sage's Island and Queendom of Rose in one of the maps shown in Ignihyde chapter.

And it IS far.

After all of the events of Scarabia, Yuu trusted them enough to tell them about Mickey 🥺 They're willing to stick with Yuu through thick and thin although they aren't as honest about it especially Ace.

Now with Ace's dynamic with Yuu is just 😩👌 they really have that best friends vibe and it does remind me of how me and my best talk. Basically what I'm saying is their friendship feels organic? Natural?

The game is pushing MalleYuu and I did ship them as well in the beginning, however Ace's relationship and dynamic with Yuu won me over. AceYuu spent more time together than MalleYuu and it's quite one-sided on Malleus' part.

If Ace got the island question on his union birthday interview, I think he would choose Yuu. Also the grin from Yuu Ace got on his omakeshi birthday interview. Have you noticed that only Ace and Lilia are the only ones looking at the camera in the omakeshi birthday cards without other cameos?

Ace is honest about his feelings towards others but not his own. His feelings can be seen more in his actions than words. On Halloween part 2 he was worried as heck for his missing friends especially Yuu. He was so ready to throw hands at "possessed" Malleus just to save Yuu. Get me a homie who's ready to smack the prince of the valley of thorns and one of the strongest magic users of the world for taking his friends away.

In his Halloween card Ace got mad that Yuu, Grim and Deuce were just fine with what happened. Then he got hot seated by Lilia and Malleus. Being the prince of the valley of thorns didn't stop Ace from being blunt. Mind you that Ace was the only one that got mad from the whole ordeal.

Wasn't it also Ace who initiated to talk about Halloween in front of Ramshackle so that the ghosts would hear it?

Halloween part 2 lives on my mind rent free. It fed me so much AceYuu.

And then his ghost marriage speech. Read his ghost marriage speech. What he said is the shiet he's doing with Yuu right now or maybe I'm delusional.

I think I can say Yuu is in limbo between a self-insert and having enough personality to be their own character. We can see that they are a bit of a gremlin too and love to tease. The teasing becomes apparent in Ace's voice lines. AceYuu dynamic shines a lot on Ace's voice lines. His ghost marriage card is worth to check out for it.

I would love to ramble more but duty calls. Peace out~
