#nope the green fucking space magic made her alive; not literally all of the other basic things that made her alive.

god i cannot w a i t for someone to remake the alternate mehem bc damn the vanilla (extended) destroy is still only marginally less terrible than synthesis, because your superweapon that has been improved upon cycle after cycle by species with the end goal of killing reapers can space magic the galaxy into a perfect union of robot and notrobot, insisting that the galaxy’s problems all boil down to robots not being notrobot enough and notrobots not being robot enough and completely removing free will from the equation, but it can’t just target only the goddamn reapers lmaoo. bc as the great and wise catalyst told us, the robits will always rebel, so of course the unshackled ai immediately turned on the normandy and killed everyone the moment it was freed, and don’t even bring up the geth, you know they started it by asking about souls, stupid machines, that was practically a call to war. there is no choice. there is no agency. there is only the cycle of robots always killing notrobots mhmm. edi was just WAITING to go hal 9000 on all your asses. even if you achieve peace between the quarians and the geth that won’t last bc it was always a purely robot vs nonrobot conflict absolutely no quarians tried to save geth during the morning war. none of the quarians we know hoped for peace or anything. no matter what you do, robots and notrobots will always fight, there is no agency, there is no choice, there is only the cycle of robots vs notrobots. the cure?? S P A C E M A G I C. anyway lets put that all aside because the superweapon that has been improved upon cycle after cycle, likely the very last hope of every species that was ultimately exterminated, all with the end goal of again, killing reapers, can use green fucking space magic composed of shepard’s green fucking space magic essence to green fucking space magic everyone on a molecular level into the perfect robot organic space magic being, but damn, it just can’t fucking target JUST the fucking reapers and instead must also kill edi and the geth bc we can handwave it away as ‘wellll they had reaper code’ and there’s just nooo way to distinguish them bc its not like the superweapon was built with a particular purpose in mind to maybe end the threat of a particular type of enemy or anything.
#synthesis is so fucking wack for me bc its the 4kids dub of control and yet#and yet is objectively the most horrifying ending bc of the implications#bro the husks literally seem to like??? become sentient and that is horrifying for every single variant of reaper troop#like that is FUCKED. UP.#the look on it's fucking face.#like do they feel?? DO THEY REMEMBER???#there is LITERALLY no way to explain synthesis other than fucking space magic it makes NO SENSE NOOOOO#also just makes me cry#u know how you find a cerberus log about tim trying to make shep as comfy as possible on sr2 despite being cerberus#that's what bioware did with synthesis#handwaved everything awful bc edi says she's alive and not alone lol#not to mention how it completely shits on her entire arc in the games bc it wasn't through her connections#her observations; her learning; the conclusions she comes to; the way she changes herself#nope the green fucking space magic made her alive; not literally all of the other basic things that made her alive.#tbd#fae plays the me:le#me:le spoilers#also aren't the reapers already both organic and non organic so like#they just go 'we are good by the power of space magictime to give y'all the knowledge of all the species we genocided'#harbinger and dalatrass linron sit down for tea to discuss the most creative genocides.
