#BUT I LIVE THE SHEPARDS

[awweshuuks]

I love drawing the Shepards as Black and Mexican mixed bc why not. I also make Curly the lightest one (he’s still a lot darker then pony 😞)and the other two make fun of him for it RELENTLESSLY.

Whenever they go out Angela or Tim ask if he wants to stay in the shade so he doesn’t get burned and he hates them. He cooks in the sun tho so he loves the summer cause they make fun of him less 🙏🙏🙏

"How can you romance Davrin AND sacrifice him? That sounds so painful, so emotionally hurtful. How can you stand it?"

My siblings in sin I romanced Thane in Mass Effect 2/3. I live in the pain. I need my pain. And as all Wardens are doomed in the end, so was Thane. (Honestly? So was Shepard, she was already on her 2nd life).

In war, victory. In peace, vigilance. In death, sacrifice.

I will meet you across the sea.

Unfortunate news: Eden Shepard is british.

Here's the piece I made for @sweatyhanded for ShenkoSummer 2023 ! :D

Original post on AO3 !

After a few rounds in the Armax Arsenal Arena, Shepard and Kaidan finally get to be just the two of them together again, without millions of fans watching them trough their TV screens.

While walking out of the arena, Shepard compliments Kaidan about that one move he pulled a bit earlier, and takes the occasion to give him a quick kiss.

At least he tries to.

Kissing while wearing armor isn't an easy thing, but awkwardly trying surely lightens the mood.

I am once again thinking about how odysseus who witnessed the horrors that the captured women went through (one of his main duties in the iliad was taking the women back home and making sure they were as comfortable as possible and safe because he was the only one trusted not to violate them further due to his devotion to penelope. And in the odyssey part of the reason circe sent him to the underworld was so that he'd have to listen to all these women's stories (before he could talk to the prophet) ). Who was one of the few that saw women as people and respected their space and opinions. And was then put in those exact same situations. I don't have the motivation right now to do a full literary analysis of this (I'll site the sources too) but oh man one day I'm going to write a full essay on this.

A Very Happy Pride to and from 2 characters that are so incredibly important to me, that each carry a piece of my heart and have been integral in my own journey of becoming more comfortable and happy in my own skin 🌈💖

thinking about kaidan begging shepard not to leave—not to leave like everyone before them, like rahna, like ashley, like himself on horizon. kaidan not being able to forgive himself for losing people to his own mistakes. jump zero. walking away from shep. causing himself so much heartache for nothing. stay, stay because you're the only good thing that's happened to me; shepard is the only thing he feels hes done right.

if he lost them he'd never forgive himself. he'd never forgive himself for letting them be the one that got away, letting them walk away, letting everything play out just like it did before.

like jump zero

like virmire

like horizon

he can't lose another friend. he can't lose the one person left that he truly, deeply loves.

it's for this reason he messages shepard apologetically after horizon; he knows it's wrong, and he knows he's pushing shepard away like rahna pushed him away, and god if that isn't eating him alive. so he messages the commander and reassures that he wants to trust them but needs time and needs them away from cerberus.

and in the end it's all for nothing because shepard still leaves like everyone else, and all he can do is hope his words are enough and that the commander's final words to him won't hang so heavy. and he's doing it all over again, watching them die again

i had a point here i dont remember what it was but im getting it

I just needed the boys dressed up as the Village People.

(Simon wanted to wear a fake mustache, but Baz nixed that idea immediately.)

And here. The original drawing, too. Why not?

here’s a lil story I found about how elvis discovered his love for a certain something

from the book “Rhythm Oil” published in 1991

the original article was written in 1967 by the legend Stanley Booth and published in 1968 with the story about Natalie and Elvis cut by the publisher (lame for that)
