Anyways, here's an excerpt (Mass Effect Initiation) on the way that turian, asari, and krogan crowds move as opposed to humans

CONFESSION:

I liked how Mass Effect 3 brought in characters from the novels, even if one of them was Kai Leng.

drew karpyshyn is the coolest mass effect writer for putting human aliens into the book. a female turian ambassador. a female salarian information broker. a female batarian. that’s so fucking cool. the man did it right instead of pulling an ‘hey lets just leave out female aliens and hope no one notices’ thing.

My way is the only way any of us will survive...and for that you must die

Shepard wakes up. Earth is in ruins. The Citadel is in pieces. The Alliance Navy is trying to put it all back together.

No one has seen the NORMANDY, or its crew.

-

She searches.

Days turn to weeks. Weeks turn to months. Or, she assumes they must. She stops keeping track.

Catalyst was right, as it turns out. Their tech is reduced to sparking heaps of metalwork; glitching at best, unresponsive at worst. Their surviving engineers get to work with a familiar, frenzied, desperate sense of purpose, and she doesn't mention Catalyst's promise, that everything should be salvageable.

She tries not to think about the Geth.

She won't let herself think about EDI.

The engineers are heralded as heroes when the first starship takes to space again, and she does nothing, says nothing to contradict it. She tells no one that their survival now, is not due to their humanity.

Her humanity.

Fallen Dreadnoughts litter the sky above Earth, their hulking carcasses blotting out the sun like clouds made of steel and death. Deadened Reaper ships float alongside them, tentacles forever frozen in a final death-spasm. Several are already establishing themselves in Earth’s orbit, visible as daytime stars. People start naming them in the style of constellations, complete with myths that are nowhere near as horrifying as the truth.

There are only a few intact ships left. The Alliance fleets are limping and crawling into dock at the Citadel, and every ship that is repaired to barely workable condition is snapped up, sent to search the debris for survivors, for resources, for anything useful. Their scans are breathtaking, thousands of wrecks already breaking down, breaking apart as solar wind and radiation whirl around planets and blast the broken hulls into pieces.

They’d thought Space was quiet once. Peaceful, even.

There are too few working ships to spare even one, certainly not for a personal mission. There are hundreds of thousands of people missing loved ones, family and friends disappeared in the chaos of battle. She prefers it, seeing the endless wallpaper of MISSING that covers every available surface; glitching holographs alongside crude hand-drawings, sometimes just a name carved into rock. Anything to find those missing.

It is so much easier to see that, than to catch sight of a sudden reunion in the street, to hear the surprised shouts and inevitable tears of relief and joy that follow. To hear the familiar litany of "Have you seen...?" and to see a person nod the affirmative, point their hand towards a building or some other destination that is undoubtably reachable.

There are too few working ships to spare even one.

Not even for a soldier gone AWOL.

#my ME muse hit me hard this morning #I know Shepard should technically be on the Citadel but #call it creative licence #part of a longer WIP that I pick away at when it lets me #this did break through a bit of writers block i had about the beginning so #not sure how well this translates compared to the entire novel length plot I have tucked away in my head so hopefully it makes sense #mass effect #mass effect 3 #mass effect trilogy #commander shepard #mass effect fic #mass effect fanfiction #mine #my writing

No updates lately since I was on a vacation for a week during the late August and all the days off I had were filled with other activities

And I also started playing Mass Effect this summer and I got the Garrus Vakarian space boyfriend brainrot, so there will be some delays

#hotb:update #yeah it's me #still (almost) 4 months before the end of the year #so there is still hope i will finish this mini visual novel before that #it would be a huge success for me #oh and I am still working on it! #just a lot less than before mass effect lol

Heya! It's been a crazy few weeks with work and the baby (she's almost 11 weeks old now, hard to believe), and I apologise for being quieter than usual.

We've been working quietly in the background, albeit a little slower than usual, and we'll continue to do so.

Stoffies has been working on the hangar and Tae has continued working on the new Uhlikti characters, some of which you'll get to meet in episode 4.

(How cute is she??)

Crowbie has been battling the flu, but she's been working on Khalil's intimate scene whenever she gets a chance, and it's almost ready for release!

Also, Tae has finished this month's pinup! The sexy doctor is in the house! And for our other Patrons on the Lieutenant's tier, the very tame (but still sexy, right?) NSFW version is over here.

Excerpt from Mass Effect Initiation on other species' perceptions of volus gender

#Mass effect #mass effect initiation #mass effect andromeda #mass effect novels #mass effect lore #mass effect world building #volus culture #gender in scifi #space newt #newt reads #I personally hc that they're all reproductively intersex #with multiple complex gender roles/identities that are entirely disconnected from sex

i would say jacobs loyalty quest is a good mission. Its a tense and terrible story, a somewhat predictable premise for an adventure story conflict, but like. Thats the problem. Its a good *sidequest*, not a good loyalty quest. We dont learn much that is unique about Jacob here. He already had problems with his father, and already wasnt speaking to him. It is terrible and Jacob reacts correctly, but there isnt really conflict or change in him here, to me? The other loyalty missions have much more changing moments and are more personal. They tell us new things or elaborate on what we know. Maybe the mission is more intense if you kill his father? I dont know.

The closest it gets to intriguing is the scene with TIM and the Miranda reveal at the end. But the game refuses to actually go into depth with Miranda and Jacobs relationship. Which sucks. Imo

#Shitpost #the mass effect novel i want is their story #How they met #their mission. Their connection. Etc. #its so weird to establish two characters in a close relationship and then just so rarely actually use it or develop it #Me2 is a great expierence but peripheries and me3 dont expand enough on a lot of what is here #esp the characters like samara miranda jacob grunt etc #they get later cameos but arent given the focus or development they deserve #jack i feel is done well and is the example of how to best handle a non companion i think #idk im just havin thoughts #shame jacobs mission is good but just doesnt give us more of what loyalty missions are meant for. You know. Him. #tbh grunts isnt that good either but grunt just isnt quite complex enough #its not his fault he was grown in a tank #also he gets enough on tuchanka where its okay. Also his quest is about spectacle #and. Again. This mission is GOOD it just. I wish we got more info about jacob actually as a man. #How he acts in this mission is how anyone including shepard acts. So he just doesn't shine

3 Ships: Gonna go wild and do outside the Marvel fandom! FemShep x Garrus Vakarian, Rick O’Connell x Evy O’Connell i would die for them, Finn x Poe Dameron

First ever ship: First ever ship was prob... Casey Jones x April O’Neal from TMNT, maybe? It’s either that or Iolaus x Gabrielle from Hercules/Xena until i got a little older and found out girls can like girls and went HEY WAIT A SECOND. If we’re talking first ship I ever wrote, oh god, I apologize to anyone who witnessed the Jesse x Emma fic young Pasta dumped into the Mutant X fandom community, you did not deserve that. i found a remnant word doc with a scrap of a chapter once that was hidden inside like 15 transferred folders and i read it and was like tiny pasta what did you do and now i keep it to remind myself i got better

Last Song I listened to: according to spotify: Broken by lovelytheband!

Currently Reading: *muttering* a soul to keep, leave me alone

Last movie I watched: Black Adam!

Currently consuming: Wasabi and soy sauce almonds! Which I should not be eating since I need to sleep, but it’s better than snarfing shredded cheese out of the bag and scaring the neighbors again

Currently watching: take a guess, rhymes with Bearbevil

Currently craving: the aforementioned shredded cheese currently sitting innocently inside the fridge
