Mass Effect liveplay (complete)

[sincere]

Spent two hours wrestling with my taxes, gave up. I'll have to go to H&R Block next weekend and pay them to take this mess off my hands. Also spent some time looking at apartments/houses?? but it was not fruitful.

Meanwhile, I have been having the random want to replace all my icons with The World Ends With You character poses. Like, FUCK YOU, YURI AND SIF AND DINOSAUR ICONS. I NEED TWENTY ICONS OF SHIKI MAKING FLIPPY HAND GESTURES.



And finally, Mass Effect liveplay, continued from here. Mass Effect, pages 1-8. Mass Effect 2, pages 8-15. Mass Effect 3, pages 15-24.


Latest: ...finished...

Spacer sentinel with traumatic survivor backstory and adorable facial scar! LET'S GO.

THE CITADEL IS SO BIG AND CONFUSING

[sincere]

Dude: The asari Consort is amazing. Like, whoa! She's not like the girls back home. She's amazing.
Other Dude: You can just talk to her and it's amazing.
Dude: HAHA. I BET YOU DIDN'T EVEN SLEEP WITH THE ASARI CONSORT. LOSERRRRR.

Shepard: So what exactly does the asari Consort do?

Dude: I, uh-- Well, she... Helps people, with... things.

Kaidan: So you've never been to see her.

Dude: No. :(


So we have Companions in Mass Effect, I guess.

[sincere]

The asari Consort is named Sha'ira and she's super respected and powerful and fucks people.

[sincere]

The elcor are my favorite species. They're... like... enormous sloth manatee elephants and they speak in monotones with prefixes explaining their emotional intent and they always tell me how awesome it is to see a human here. ADORABLE.

[sincere]

They use prefixes because they communicate mostly with each other via scent and "slight movements". :D

[sincere]

I'm going to start prefixing all my statements with my sentiments.

"Frankly: I am super uninterested in your original Doctor Who character."

"Chastising rebuke: Maybe you should talk to her before you go off on a rant."

"Genuine query: Are you interested in hearing more about this subject, or should I stop?"

[rainfall]

Honest reply: I want more Mass Effect like, right now okay.

[sincere]

Enthusiastic comment: Go screw yourself. :D

[rainfall]

:(

IF ONLY THERE WAS A MAP TO HELP YOU OUT

[sincere]

SHA'IRA IS WAY UP IN MY PERSONAL SPACE

[rainfall]

I really wish there was more variety with the Asari. I feel like the ones we have met are all identical. Do they not have... skin tone variation? And all the ones in the Consort's area have the exact same dress on. :( Mrrrr.

SHE WANTS YOUR MOUTH IN HER EAR HOLE

I assume she has an ear hole

So this turian dude Garrus was investigating Saren for shooting our buddy Nihlus in the back, but he hasn't found enough in the three hours twenty minutes it took us to get here, so he's fired.

He feels so sure that Saren is a treacherous asshole, but he can't prove it, so... Good luck, he says.

[sincere]

We go to the council to talk about the attack. The councilors say there's no evidence to hold against Saren, as dire as the geth attack is. Saren is present to sneer at all of us and counter all our accusations. Lame. :(

[sincere]

Saren is cleared of charges and the meeting is ended. The ambassador is pretty pissed off and accuses Captain Anderson of ruining the meeting with his obvious bias against Saren. Anderson responds, "I know Saren, and he wants to EXTERMINATE THE WHOLE HUMAN RACE I JUST KNOW IT," so it sounds like the ambassador's suspicion is totally unfounded.

[sincere]

We're going to hunt down Garrus again and get him to tell us what he knows. Wheeee.

[temples]

Garrus is a bro. With face tentacles. Probably.

[sincere]

I love their mandibles!

[temples]

Those things! I love it when you use big words at me. :D

[rainfall]

I loved that. He just sounded so paranoid.

[rainfall]

I enjoy how everyone keeps recognizing us and admiring us and asking for our autographs and our backstory makes it super awkward!

[rainfall]

I also love the Keepers. :D They are so creepy and will completely kill us in our sleep someday.
