What she says: I have nothing to play.

What she means: The Mass Effect trilogy has emotionally drained me in the most beautiful of ways, no game that I own or could purchase begins to compare to the effect the characters had on me or the gravity of the storyline. It has left me sad yet wanting more and I’m about this close to replaying the series just to feel whole again.

This is so true it hurts

haha the stories i could tell

Ellie never really thought of it. As a teen, she could dance, but club dancing isn’t really something she does at her age. Arcanus, however, has learned a turian dance similar to ballroom when he was living on the Citadel. Less as a means to impress or anything, but more to pass the time and have another “notch on his belt”, so to speak.

Ellie once showed interest in the passing mention of his knowledge and, with some puppy eyes, got him to show her. She’s still a bit clumsy because she over thinks, but she’s learning.

Thanks for the wonderful question! 😀

Got these prompts here, so credit where it’s due.  

For the first 5 people to respond with a sentence starter and a Mass Effect OT pairing (I write turians mostly, but am open to other pairs but apologize in advance if the writing is trash!), I will do a 1,000 word mini-fic, full of delicious smut, as a thank you for being along for this weird, wild ride that is my brain.

Submit in my ask box with the prompt, the pairing, and (if you have it) your AO3 username so I can gift it to you there as well as here.

Again, thank you all so much!!  Loves you dearly ❤

Love?  You’re such a sweetheart!  

78.  How do they act when they are particularly happy?

You’d have to know Arcanus to understand the subtle differences in him when he’s happy, but once you do, you’ll find he’s actually learned to enjoy himself since the war.

His shoulders relax more, he actually lets his vocals go – though softer than most and almost inaudible for humans – and he doesn’t make it a habit to avoid physical contact.  Even if it’s something as small as a pat on his back or hand on his shoulder to hugs, he accepts them from close friends – family to him.  As they grow older, the twins will often hang on him for attention, and he surprisingly enjoys the attention once the twins are past the ‘stinky diapers and drooling’ stage.  He opens up the most with Ellie, and usually in private, but, at that time, he is even known to initiate contact with her, often trying to hold her hand awkwardly or give her a purr and nuzzle.

84.  What are some physical features they find attractive on people?

This has actually him a while to build preferences for because he started off being solely focused on functionality and practicality.  Once he’s been forced into the light of enjoyment, however, he’s started to actually think about what it is he enjoys outside of work.

One thing is hair.  On strangers, it’s more a curiosity, but with those closest to him, he’s interested in the different textures, colors, and styles humans put them in.  He loves the silky feeling of Ellie’s hair and how it matches the color of his plates.  

He also loves color.  Mainly because he’s grown up knowing nothing but white with his family (who all shares the same plate colors, albeit with a few differences in shades) and himself, but now he sees all the different colors of the species and even individuals within.  Surprisingly considering his single hue color palette of clothes, he enjoys watching the different colors Ellie or Jane wears.  Even if Ellie has white hair, it’s the knowledge that she can change it’s color that interests him.

Never tell anyone this, though, as he’d vehemently deny it.  

What lovely asks!

Jane

1.   What sociocultural factors of your own life do you think influenced your choice of character and how you play them?

Jane has been very ‘what would I do in this or this situation’ in the beginning and when I actually play a character in the games.  Lame and perhaps a bit of a cop-out, I know, but aren’t all our characters us in some way? 

Alright, so some of these may upset some people, but if you know Jane, this might make sense.  

First is her level of education.  Much of that came from the thinking of ‘what if’ concerning my own generation.  I finished school (though completed it only because the hospital I was in had a schooling program), but there were many girls who did not because of teen pregnancies.  For some, it was even pre-teen, which often led to so many dropping out of school.  What would happen to a character that did the same (though under different circumstances) and went into a darker life just to get by?  And, being a woman and living with an obvious divide between sexes stemming from this thinking of ‘girls should so what the boy wants if she wants to keep him’ and other macho-man bullshit where I live, I didn’t see a young teen in the Reds as anything but used for her body.

Another factor that shaped her is her belief system.  She’s mentioned it a few times in Parable of how she doesn’t believe in or follow a religion, but grants everyone their ideals.  Hell, she sometimes envies that attitude of being ignorant and trusting in a higher power.  To her, she has seen no reason to believe in a higher power, not because of her life or because of the hate that these beliefs (many with very few differences).  She is a way to get that very same thinking of mine out.  You can believe in what helps you cope with life and the many questions we can’t answer, but violence or pushing it upon others only belittles the values of your beliefs.

For something less controversial, but actually more personal, Jane has her give no shits attitude as a contrast to my own self-consciousness.  My father has a way of making people feel shame for what they find interesting or like if it goes against what he thinks.  He wasn’t physically abusive, but even hard words towards yourself or your mother can make someone feel like shit.  As result, you see and hear the same disproval in others – often picking out those from the crowd while completely overlooking those who say otherwise.  Jane still has some of that in her attitudes towards more feminine clothes in Juxtaposed, but she has Garrus to help her feel beautiful.  When Jane jokes about walking around naked just to show off her scars, she goes against everything I’d ever do thanks to my raising, but it makes me love her all the more that I can open up through her.  She’s also much more outgoing than I am because she just doesn’t care what others think.  

Arcanus

11.  What mythic deity do you think best embodies the core values of your character?  How so?

While I’m sure I could find someone else if I really looked, I think the best answer is always the one that comes to mind without thinking.  That being, Athena, the greek goddess.  (Sorry Arcanus, but your god inspiration is a goddess)

Not only do I see practically every attribute of the goddess in him without trying, but I always got the vibe from Athena in the stories that she was a stern woman, not pulling punches when defied or insulted.  She cared less about beauty and more in the substantiality of the mind, and I see so much of that in Arcanus.  For him, skill comes first and looks will fall in line shortly after.
