So, I've finally given up the hesitation and went through a complete Ashleymance in Mass Effect. I loved it. It's adorable. I kind of feel like the Kaidanmance got the shaft. He's so much more suspicious of Shepard and grouchy at him. Ashleymance is dorky. It's completely dorky because Shepard all 'Smooth Dog' about it. So, all his lines are corny and ridiculous.
Garrusmance is still my most favourite. I also adore Stevemance a lot. I haven't finished the me3 Thanemance stuff yet. And I doubt I'll ever Jackmance or Talimance*. Jack...to me, I think she needs friends who aren't after her tail. (yes, it's a game, but roleplaying, wtf) And Tali is the same as Merrill to me. She reminds me of a child. The whole naive, virginal, young thing. I'm not really interested. (Though, I think it says a lot when you think about how popular those romances were)
When I was playing through me2 for my Ashleymance, I stayed single...However, I did end up doing the whole Justicar romance angle (which doesn't work)...boy, was that touching. I really loved it a lot. I adore Samara and part of me wants to playthrough me3 to get that scene with her during Citadel...but it's a lot of game to play just for a small scene.
Aaaanyhow, I'm doing a Stevemance again because I want to. Then, I plan on finally doing a Traynormance.
* I realise I didn't include Jacob in the mances I'll never do, but that's because I pretend Jacobmancing doesn't actually exist.
