Mass Effect Character Sexualities because I want to project

(Partly headcanon, bi-ased, personal opinion)

Ashley: straight, formerly homophobic until she realized that most of her Normandy crew mates were gay

Garrus: bi energy, its simply unfair to our gay guys for such an amazing and hot character to not go both ways. Ive also seen too much Garrus/Thane/Shepard fanart to see him any other way

Liara: obviously bi, I hc that she was confused when she first encountered homophobia because it simply doesn’t exist in asari culture (closest thing is the asarixasari stigma)

Wrex: for some reason I see him as bi? I have no idea where I got this but I want to see a tough, old warrior casually mentioning being into both men and women and not caring at all about it (even though I think krogan culture probably wouldn’t approve)

Tali: for my sake as a helpless bi simp, I see her as under the umbrella, but doesn’t realize it. Like me before I came out, Tali would say “yeah she’s really pretty and I want to hang out with her and hug her and stare at her but I’m not gay or anything.” You are. You are gay. I think it would be in character for her to completely miss the fact that she’s into girls as well as men

Joker: straight. The kind of straight to make jokes about his friends’ sexualities, but not mean anything by it. He goes to pride every June with his wife EDI (who I will get to)

Jacob: I honestly can’t believe that he was originally intended to be bi, I just can’t see him into men unless I squint. It’s hilarious that they tried to make his male romance more like Brokeback Mountain so it’d be accepted

Miranda: I’ve seen a headcanon on Pinterest about Miranda having internalized homophobia because it doesn’t line up with her view of genetic perfection, something she’s established to be insecure about. I think it would make perfect sense for her character. I think it’s easy to see her as a lesbian practicing het-comp, especially with how awkward her initial flirting with Shepard is, but there are more scenes in her romance that feel authentic than there are that feel performative, so I’m inclined to say she is bi/pan/omni/etc.

Mordin: I’m pretty sure his asexuality is canon. I also think that he’s aromantic as well, but can objectively assess beauty/attractiveness well. For example, his film noir short story in the Citadel DLC involves a hookup with Aria. I personally believe that is him saying “yeah, she’s attractive, and if I were into women, I’d smash”

Zaeed: he gives off straight uncle who would punch a homophobe for you but otherwise doesn’t know how to interact with you after you’ve come out and tries a little too hard to acknowledge your sexuality but it’s definitely well-meaning (think the “anyone could be they!” scene from Brooklyn Nine-Nine)

Grunt: straight and supports his bi parents (Shepard and Garrus/Thane/Tali/Liara), wears rainbows at Pride for them, and regularly headbutts homophobes

Jack: I’m forever salty about them erasing her pansexuality. Also she and Miranda should’ve kissed

Kasumi: also gives off pan energy. She definitely feels like the type to not care about gender at all- as long as they’ve got muscles, that’s all that matters to her

Thane: pan energy

Samara: as established, Samara is bisexual

Legion: ace, non-binary (goes with people using he/him based on its masculine voice, pronouns are they/it)

Kelly: she said so herself, she doesn’t care about race/species or gender, all that matters is the person 💖💛💙

EDI: something about Sentient AI Who People Initially Don’t Trust Until She Gets A Humanoid Body That People Can Better Associate With Her reads to me as a trans allegory. Obviously, she’s not trans, but the vibes are there. Many times, people are suspicious of trans women until they transition and pass more as cis, which is similar to EDI’s story. She learns more about herself after her body changes, and others start to appreciate her more and have an easier time referring to her with she/her pronouns. As for her sexuality, she doesn’t seem to lean any particular way to me. She doesn’t seem like the type who’d use labels, even though it would make sense for her to “categorize” herself. I’d say she’s unlabelled- definitely into men, with her relationship with Joker

James: as much as I wish we could get gay gym bro representation, James is great as he is, being a masculine straight guy who’s best friends are openly gay (Cortez) and bi (Shepard)

Traynor: lesbian (canon), definitely into women who can crush her head under their heel but also has a dominant side herself

Cortez: gay (canon)

Diana: that annoying and popular bi girl you secretly had a crush on but didn’t want to because she was intimidating and popular

Mass Effect Holiday Cheer gift for @jadesabre301! I saw you liked quarians, Tali, and Reegar and decided to make this. Happy Holidays!

Title: We're Only Stardust Among Comets

Summary:

Kal'Reegar knows loss. Every marine during wartime does. But he also knows what it means to live. To heal.

He hopes that Tali'Zorah came do the same.

Words: 1676

Rating: T

Relationship: Kal'Reegar & Tali'Zorah vas Neema

Additional Tags: Implied/Referenced Character Death, Grief/Mourning, Friendship, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Quarians

Read on AO3

~~~~

“Vot.”

Tali’Zorah vas Neema dropped the geth memory core she’d salvaged, hands shaking. The hunk of tech landed with a loud clatter against the ground, drawing the gaze of some of the scientists on the opposite side of the room. She glanced over her shoulder briefly, noting the wariness of the others.

From his place a few feet away, Kal’Reegar recognized the telltale signs of distress: the tremors in her shoulders, the quick movements of her hands, the stiffness of her posture. She wasn’t panicking yet, but it didn’t appear far off.

“Are you alright, ma’am?”

Her purple faceplate turned in his direction, eyes glowing warily beneath. “I’m fine.” She paused, realizing how harsh her voice sounded, even through the modulator. A quiet sigh followed. “Thank you for the concern, Kal. I just… need a moment.”

She turned to pick up the memory core, inspecting it for damage before she returned it to the workbench. Hushed speech from the scientists interrupted the silence, the words nothing more than white noise as Kal’Reegar studied Tali’Zorah. She had changed since her time with that human Spectre… since Shepard.

Tali had acquired slightly more human mannerisms than he was accustomed to, not that it was a problem in most situations. In fact, some of her newer ideas had opened the quarians to a different way of thinking, of approaching issues that couldn’t be solved in the traditional ways. For someone who wasn’t a marine, her skills with a gun had vastly improved. She used her drone in fights and it somehow worked, distracting her enemies at the perfect moment.

But she drew suspicion from some of the others on the Fleet. They didn’t like integrating another species' ideas or tech. It made them paranoid, distrustful of her and whatever she brought back after the Battle on the Citadel.

Kal’Reegar wasn’t interested in the tech. Not that surprised anyone. He was a grunt, used to doing the dirty work others wouldn’t. No, he wanted to learn more about this human captain Tali’Zorah served with.

The one she had lost only a few weeks ago.

“You seem distracted, ma’am.” He managed to say without sounding like a total bosh’tet. Kal’Reegar was a marine, a fighter for a race of people that were lost to the stars, who didn’t have a planet to call home. Not for hundreds of years, at least. The geth had seen to that.

But he had an important job here with the scientists, and in particular, with Tali’Zorah. He traveled with them on research missions, protected them from the geth, or anything else that might try to harm them. Sure, it wasn’t fighting a war on their homeworld, but it made a difference. Their research helped further the lives of the quarian people, and by extension the Fleet. Then one day in the distant future, if he survived this war, he could retire, kick up his feet and appreciate the work he put in.

Tali laid her hands on the table, fingers spread against the metal as she tried to focus. “It’s… nothing. You wouldn’t understand.”

News of Shepard’s death had reached the Fleet at a slower pace than if she’d been on the Citadel, but everyone knew what had happened to Tali’s former captain, her former friend. She never spoke much of the humans once she’d returned. She was absorbed in her work like usual. But the news had been such a shock to her system that she’d fallen ill for days after hearing it.

Reegar didn’t know if she’d talked to anyone about it, her father or perhaps Raan. Even if she did, it likely wouldn’t do much for her grief. Losing someone who fought beside you, that you bled with and befriended in the fires of combat, that was a bond that no one could touch.

He approached cautiously, taking care to make sure she saw him coming. Standing beside the table, he stood with his hands behind his back, watching her out of the corner of his eyes.

“Ma’am, you would be surprised what a dumb marine like me can understand.”

She snorted, another human reaction he noted, and faced him. “Is that so? Keelah, you’re annoying.”

“Been called worse.”

A real laugh left her mouth and it drew the stares of the other scientists briefly. Kal pretended to not notice, waiting for the moment to pass before speaking again.

“Losing a friend isn’t easy. I’ve lost plenty in this short life and it never gets easier.” He let the words hang between them, letting the weight of them settle.

Tali made a small sound, something close to a strangled cry if he had to describe it. The turmoil in her soul wouldn’t ease for weeks, months, maybe even years. Reegar didn’t know how close she was to Shepard, but from her reaction, it seemed like one of the closest friendships a quarian could have to another being. His heart ached for her. No one should suffer a loss like that alone.

“How-” She paused, voice wavering as she tried to push down the wave of intense grief she felt. “How do you heal? Move on from something like that? I don’t remember much about when my mother left us, but it didn’t feel like this.”

“Grief feels different when you’re young. The finality of it doesn’t weigh as heavy as it does now.” He resisted the urge to reach out to comfort her as her shoulders shook. “You fought beside Shepard, knew her as intimately as our kind can. Your friendship will live on in you and the things you do.”

“That’s so… poetic.” She sighed, brushing a hand against her faceplate, almost as if she could wipe the tears away.

“I don’t know anything about poetry, ma’am.” He replied, keeping his tone as light as possible. “Like I said, I’m only a marine.”

“A marine with a love for poetry.” Tali teased back, tears still coating her voice, but she didn’t sound as broken.

Silence descended a moment later, but the melancholy seemed to have lifted. Kal’Reegar watched her again, detecting the subtle shift of her shoulders, the way her hands slid away from the memory core, holding them at ease in front of her.

“May I ask you about her?” He tried hard to keep the excitement ( maybe even longing?) out of his voice. “About Shepard?”

A warrior like Captain Shepard was a curiosity that the quarians didn’t see much of, especially when most were either stuck on the Migrant Fleet or off fighting geth. While Shepard might’ve been human, it didn’t take away from her enigma, her infamy. In fact, it made her more captivating. Especially to someone like Kal’Reegar.

Tali tilted her head slightly, in confusion or contemplation, he wasn’t sure but it was endearing. He was positive that she was grinning at him, all too aware of how interested he was. “I would be happy to. Talking about her… it might help.”

When she began to speak, she practically glowed with the affection she felt for Shepard. To Tali’Zorah, the human Spectre was a friend first, a hero second. She was a person with feelings, who made mistakes, who had love for the galaxy and every person she came into contact with. She was kind. She was strong.

It did little for his hero worship.

“There was this one time, keelah, she challenged Wrex to a fist fight.”

“That’s the krogan?” He asked for clarification, her old friends' names swirling into a blur in his mind.

“Yes. Wrex laughed at Shepard, told her she was a whelp for even thinking she could face a true krogan.” Tali paused to catch her breath before forging on. “When he turned to leave, she punched him in the face! With her biotics, of course, because she would’ve broken her hand otherwise, but it was… oh! What was the human word for it?” She spoke a few words in quick succession before exclaiming. “Oh yes! Insane. It was insane!”

She dissolved into a fight of giggles.

Reegar couldn’t imagine this small human he’d seen vids of punching a full sized krogan, but then again, she had done the impossible only a few months before. She had destroyed a supposed Reaper, stopped a geth invasion, and gotten humanity a seat on the Council.

The Admirals could take a hint or two from Shepard’s actions.

An old quarian saying popped into his mind as he watched Tali try to control her laughter. Something his mother used to tell him when he mourned another soul lost to the geth, a reminder that death wasn’t the end, but a beginning. They would all make their way back to the cosmos, to rest among the blanket of starlight and live forever as stardust.

“We’re only stardust among comets.”

Tali finally returned her gaze to him, laughter dying on her lips. “We are galaxies, united in our infinite sorrow.”

“We are solar flashes, beauty brief yet bright.”

“Esu se’lai, dear friend. We will meet amongst the stars once more.”

Tali relaxed, moving to lean against the workbench, her eyes still on him. The silence stretched on, but she didn’t shed any more tears. “Thank you for this. You didn’t need to help me, but you did. I… appreciate it.”

“Whatever you need, ma’am.”

Tali shook her head, crossing the small distance between them to lay a hand on his arm. She glanced up at him, forcing him to meet her eyes. “Please, call me Tali’Zorah.”

“Of course, Tali’Zorah. Ma’am.”

She tittered, squeezing his arm gently, a sincere and friendly gesture… something else to thank Shepard for, he supposed. “I’m glad you’re here, Kal.”

Reegar smiled beneath his mask, not knowing how to explain the feeling growing in his chest. Pride at helping her? Perhaps he was getting sentimental in his later years. A sentimental marine with a knack for poetry… His friends on the Fleet would tease him endlessly if they found out.

Somehow that didn’t make him upset.

“Me too, ma’am. I wouldn’t be anywhere else.”

I've been analizing ME romances and...

I dare you to name more than one human LGTBQ+ squad member romance (aka long and developed romance) in all of the Mass Effect games... or more than two LGTBQ+ squad member romances, period.

Here you have all the squad members, so you can think about it (romance options in bold):

Mass Effect

Kaidan Alenko

Tali'Zorah nar Rayya

Liara T'Soni

Garrus Vakarian

Ashley Williams

Urdnot Wrex

Mass Effect 2

Kasumi Goto

Grunt

Thane Krios

Jack

Miranda Lawson

Legion

Zaeed Massani

Tali'Zorah vas Neema

Samara or Morinth

Mordin Solus

Jacob Taylor

Garrus Vakarian

Mass Effect 3

Kaidan Alenko or Ashley Williams

Javik

Tali'Zorah vas Normandy

Liara T'Soni

Garrus Vakarian

James Vega

EDI

Mass Effect Andromeda

Cora Harper

Liam Kosta

Vetra Nyx

Pelessaria B'Sayle

Nakmor Drack

Jaal Ama Darav

------------------

So, to sum up, Kaidan Alenko is bae.

Stop fucking complaining that he discovered he is bi in ME3.

It's an awesome romance,

So stfu.

And...

Isn't it curious that gay/bi characters are mostly featured in small romances and that almost everyone in the main ones is straight?

Maybe it's just me...

#i didn't know if i should post this because people tends to get angry when i use my head to analise things #and then i remembered that as long as i find it interesting idgaf about what other people think... so here we are #mass effect #kaidan alenko #shenko #mshenko

Mass Effect 2: World and Culture Building

So, I recently got the Mass Effect: Legendary Edition on PS4, and I've been having some fun with it.

Like, the first game didn't 'wow' me as much as I was expecting from the hype (but I was kind of expecting it to underwhelm me a little, I'm used to games failing to completely live up to the hype... *side-eyes Smash Bros Brawl*) but it was a functional game. If a little buggy at times, but I can attribute most of that to me constantly jumping in and out of the main PS4 menu and leaving it on rest mode a lot.

So then, afterwards, I moved onto Mass Effect 2. First, just in case people are interested, or if it makes any real difference, I'll say what the choices I made in Mass Effect 1 were, the ones it reminds you of when you start Mass Effect 2.

I recruited everyone

My Shepherd was far more Paragon than Renegade

The game seems to think I romanced Ashley, but I did not. Her anti-alien feelings put me off her, honestly, but I guess the game thought I was more interested in her than in Liara.

I choose to let Kaiden die on Virmire... which might have contributed towards 'romancing' Ashley, come to think of it.

I calmed Wrex down, rather than killing him.

I THINK Garrus might be more renegade than Paragon, but I'm not 100% sure

I let Tali have the Geth data, for her pilgrimage.

I saved Zhu's Hope and Shiala.

I spared the Rachni Queen.

I spared Rana the Asari scientist on Virmire

I destroyed the fliers, meaning that Captain Kirrahe survived Virmire

I was kind to Conrad, although due to a bug, which I thought had been fixed, he said that I waved a gun in his face.

In 'Bring down the sky', I spared the hostages over killing Balak, and also spared Balak's second in command.

I let the Council die. Honestly, I wasn't really too interested in saving them considering all the stuff they'd done thorough out Mass Effect 1.

I chose Anderson over Udina for a place on the Council. Similarly to the Council, I wasn't interested in giving Udina any more power than he had before.

Apparently, that's all the important choices, so let's move on to Mass Effect 2 and what finally clicked for me, about why Mass Effect 2 is so loved. Although, if you read the title, you may already have guessed.

In Mass Effect 1, there is some information on the alien races, but it's mostly in text. You hear about the Quarian's flotila, you hear about the genophage and how a lot of the Krogan are more 'blood knight' characters who value strength above all else... I can't actually remember if you directly learn anything about the Turians, but I think it's implied that they are a race that is great at mechanics and engineering, and are also partially responsible for the genophage that all Krogans are infected with. You also learn a bit about the Asari but...

Honestly, it was kind of hard to care for quite a lot of it. Because it was just text. You get told, you don't get to experience any of it, partially because you're just a human.

In Mass Effect 2, this changes.

You encounter groups of Quarians twice, with Tali leading both groups. Tali is later on accused of treason, and you visit the Flotilla, which gives you a lot of insight into how Quarian culture works, as well as the trial itself. For instance, learning that a Quarian's last name comes from the ship they are from, or, if they are banished, the ship they currently inhabit, as displayed by Tali's name 'legally' having been changed to 'Tali'Zorah Vas Normandy' from "Tali'Zorah Vas Neema", and Tali commenting that it's like they've banished her already. You are then tasked with defending Tali, since you are the leader of the ship she is on. And you learn more about what the admirals want to do with concerns to the Geth, and learn more about what Tali's father was up to.

You also encounter a lab-made Krogan called 'Grunt' whom needs to go through the Rite of Passage. Since I spared Wrex, Wrex was the leader we encountered on the Krogan's home planet, and thus the one we talked to, and he greeted Shepard as an old friend. From what I've heard, if you killed Wrex, the leader instead is Wrex's brother, and he is a lot less... progressive, than his brother, and not as intelligent.

However, you find out that Wrex has managed to bring about quite a few changes, and is trying to basically unify the Krogan for their people to thrive. You find out about many rites, especially in regards to their shaman, who apparently does rites for himself every morning and every night.

It helps you see the Krogan as a lot less than the dumb muscle that they can be seen as in Mass Effect 1. While the Rite of Passage is basically what you would expect (fights against various creatures, ending with a fight against a Thresher Maw, which you would usually fight with a vechicle in Mass Effect 1) and also against a bunch of Krogan who were initially against Grunt going through the Rite (I shut them up by headbutting their ringleader, which, considering Wrex did it to them earlier for basically the same sort of reason, I assume is a show of dominance, basically a 'shut up fucker') wanting to recruit him for their clan, intent on overthrowing Wrex's clan who were trying to unify the Korgan, as mentioned.

You also get a lot more information on the Genophage, since not only is one of your crew members a Salarian, but is one of the scientists who made changes to the Genophage to made it more effective at controlling the population of Krogan. While he says that it was 'necessary', it's fairly obvious that he has guilt over it. You encounter him running a clinic for people who had been infected by a 'plague' on Omega, and he mentions his work on the Genophage often.

His loyalty mission (each crew member you recruit has a 'loyalty' mission, which ensures their loyalty and unlocks a new power for them) involves saving one of his former crew members, who has alledgedly been kidnapped and forced to do research on a genophage cure.

When you research the abandoned hospital, you find various corpses that show signs of having been experimented on, and a lot of dialogue choices where you can tell Mordin that he was wrong to do this, or that he was right to do so. And it does result in some... interesting information.

For example, the genophage was not meant to kill Krogan, just limit their population, for fear that if their population was allowed to grow too large, they would wage war upon all other species in the galaxy.

On the other hand, it's a pretty shitty thing to do.

You also find out that Mordin's former comrade was doing it voluntarily. Which makes Mordin very angry, saying that this wasn't what he taught his former coworker to do, and certainly not the way he taught him to do it. Basically, Mordin is more upset about HOW his former coworker did it than the why. If your Paragon score is high enough, you can stop Mordin from killing them.

By the end, Mordin doesn't seem to really know what he thinks about it any more. A lot of research that was done was at least viable, but it was done under terrible circumstances. You can either destroy the data, or you can save it.

I told Mordin to save it to help the Krogan. After all, the people who died during the research couldn't exactly be brought back by destroying the data.

Basically, in Mass Effect 2, there's a lot of world and culture building, especially in the three missions I've mentioned (Tali, Grunt and Mordin's loyalty missions respectively) and I can see now why people love Mass Effect 2.

The graphics are good, the gameplay is VERY solid, even if there are many other games that have similar gameplay styles (one that sticks out in my mind, oddly enough, is Gears of War, which I have never played but have seen gameplay off, and Shepard charging forward and taking cover definitely makes me think of it) that do it just as well or better, but the world building and culture building of other races in Mass Effect 2, especially with how it was in Mass Effect 2, is just *chef's kiss*

It's definitely gotten me invested enough to keep playing and to go through Mass Effect 3, even though the issues with the ending to Mass Effect 3 are... let's be nice and say 'infamous'.

Basically if you haven't played Mass Effect, I HIGHLY recommend it. While I would say to play the first one first, it DID turn into a bit of a slog near the end, so I wouldn't blame you if you decided to just start from Mass Effect 2 instead.

One last thing, although this is not necessarily as important as the rest of it...

Tali is a precious baby and must be protected and loved and cherished.

Also Garrus is a bro and I wouldn't blame anyone for wanting to romance him.

That is all.

Kill 2 or more enemies rapidly

#Kill 2 or more enemies rapidly full

Interestingly, the quarian marine Kal'Reegar calls the Colossus an "Armature-class" unit, indicating that at least quarians see it as a variation of the Armature. A notable trait of this particular Colossus is that it is the Armature steel-gray, not white. There is one Colossus present on Haestrom, which acts as a level boss at the end of the mission to recruit Tali'Zorah vas Neema. Its shield regeneration can occur quickly if left alone, so keep pressure on the walker before it erases your progress.

A Colossus has a very slow health regeneration at higher difficulties or levels, so toxic ammunition can be useful in hampering this.

However, you'll need Master Lift to get it off the ground as it's too heavy.

Warp, Lift, and/or Sabotage all produce significant effects on the Colossus.

The Colossus is too powerful for AI Hacking, Throw, or Singularity.

Given the slow speed of a Colossus, unless trapped, running away, firing at it the whole time while dodging the Siege Pulse attack, will work. Cover is a bonus, but while Armatures will usually just stand there and fire in your direction if you leave their line of sight, a Colossus will actually give chase once you begin your attack, so bear that in mind if you have to fall back.

If you are out in the open, keep moving and spread your team out if you can.

Switch to Tungsten Ammunition and use either an assault rifle or shotgun to attack. First of all, you must keep your shields charged with Shield Boost or Barrier or the Colossus' machine guns will shred them and kill you.

It is possible to engage a Colossus on foot from start to finish with a well-equipped and balanced team, but your talents and weapons must be high level to pull it off.

#Kill 2 or more enemies rapidly full

This should typically be done if there are few enemies left (or only the Colossus itself), so you can bring your full attention to keeping it down while unloading mass accelerator fire on it. If it becomes necessary to engage a Colossus at close range, repeatedly ramming it with the Mako to prevent it from entering the Siege Pulse firing position can prevent it from doing anything else while it's attempting to recover.If you have done this correctly and your sniper rifle is reasonably strong, it should go down in a few shots. Equip Shepard's sniper rifle and fire away. For sniper-range distance engagements, you can simply park the Mako in a safe place (behind a wall or on the other side of a hill from the Colossus) once you have gotten the Colossus down to about 1/6th health or so, and send your squad members to the same hidden/protected area using the squad commands.So long as you stay at long range or circle-strafe using the main cannon, four or five shots will bring a Colossus down once its shields are gone.You'll only need to step out of the vehicle to deal the killing blow on foot if experience penalty is an issue. Efficiently fighting the Colossus almost always means whittling it down with the Mako's guns.The Colossus doesn't actually need to be facing your direction to fire, meaning you can still be hit by the Siege Pulse even if you're behind it.Like Armatures, Colossi will bring their legs together before firing the Siege Pulse cannon, giving you a small grace period to react accordingly.The Colossus is a monumentally dangerous foe, but fortunately they are almost always encountered while in the M35 Mako. They are equipped with mass accelerator machine guns and a powerful Siege Pulse mass accelerator cannon. They are distinctive from Armatures because their armor is brighter, somewhat platinum-silver in appearance, with ridges on the back. Geth Colossi are similar to Geth Armatures, but much larger with more health, stronger armor and better weaponry. Therum, Virmire, Ilos, Solcrum, Antibaar, Maji
