(no subject)
...Wow. So. That "daily" Mass Effect meme I was doing? How about that? I'm only, oh, a solid week behind in it and I have no excuse at all. Whoops~ When I eventually do the Dragon Age one, I think I'll just do the entire thirty days in one huge post or else I'll be dome it in 2013, at the rate I'm going.
Day Ten: Favourite Weapon(s)
Oh Widow, my love, how you made my first playthrough beautiful. Knowing that we'll be reunited in ME3 makes my InfiltratorShep's heart flutter almost more than her knowing that she'll get Kaidan back at some point.
Day Eleven: Favourite antagonist.
Technically, I love all the antagonists because you can't have a good hero without a good antagonist. And I adore Saren to pieces, but I have to hand this over to two other characters just because they are a constant thorn in my side in the best way possible:
Udina, you bastard. I love you. I almost always make you my councilor, and you're still an asshole to me. I can't help but adore it. XD
AND:
"AH YES. 'REAPERS'."
Turian Councilor, you. are the biggest dick. ever. You literally learned how to use airquotes fingers just to be a douche to humans. And no matter what I do in ME1, you bitch at me.
...I love you so much. Please keep being an ass in ME3. I need that.
Okay, so for these "favourite (insert alien species here)" questions, I'm going to specifically stay away from squaddies. Just because I'd be torn between NPCs and squad members if I tried to do it any other way.
Day Twelve: Favourite human character (Other than Shepard)
Joker. Easily. I refuse to explain this, because there's no need to. Everyone loves Joker, right? Right.
Day Thirteen: Favourite Turian.
Garrus, you were already in this meme twice so far. Make room for:
CAPTAIN GAVORN! I love him. The runner up for this would be Chellick, and they're BOTH voiced by Gideon Emery. This amuses me. Anyways, I love that Gavorn is the only turian (aside from Garrus, I guess) who has a canon interest in humans. Except that Gavorn has an interest in male humans. The fact that there canonically a gay turian with a human fetish makes me happy. Good job, Bioware. :)
But aside from that, he's just awesome. He's not overly friendly, but he's not a jerk, he deals with all the vorcha and they're super annoying, so...yes. Love him.
Day Fourteen: Favourite Asari.
Matriarch Aethyta. aka "Liara's 'father'"
...Okay, so it hasn't been officially stated that Aethyta is Liara's father-asari, but it's been hinted at so much that I consider it canon and am just waiting for Bioware to directly say it. We know that Liara is a pureblood asari, meaning she has two asari parents. We know that Aethyra lost contact with her mate and her daughter. And then, if you check her video in the Shadow Broker base?
Picture of Liara. So. Yeah.
Beyond that, I just love the character. She's sassy and smart and fun, and I really hope we see more of her, or at least hear more from her.
Day Fifteen: Favourite Salarian.
Captain Kirrahe. Because he delivers the most inspirational speeches, and he held the line.
Day Sixteen: Favourite Krogan.
Charr, the poor krogan mechanic on Illium, who spouts poetry to try to win his asari girlfriend back. He's so so bad at it, but it's so, so endearing. I almost always tell her to take him back, because he's just such a doof and they really love each other. And his poetry is just so bad it's hilarious.
