anyway i was thinking about post destroy geth and EDI live because lol why wouldn’t they have a cloud backup for themselves
and to further extrapolate when Tali mentioned that the geth were helping the quarians by stimulating their immune systems via programming in their enviro suits
and what if geth programs “adopted” specific quarians and that was THEIR quarian, they took care of them and cared about them
and they showed up as little tamagotchi on their omnitools to communicate with their quarian host
and they would be like “Creator-(friend), we do not trust that individual. We suggest ending this conversation and finding another vendor.”
or “Creator-(friend), we have spoken to the geth in Creator-(other person)’s suit, and we believe you have mutual interests. We think it would be best if you converse with them!” geth internally: “We have contributed to Creator-(friend)’s happiness. We shall get a good grade in cooperation and friendship, which is both normal to want and possible to achieve. :)”
What's a bitch gotta do to find floor plans for REAL historical palaces and mansions and not fake ones people made up for Minecraft or to sell to Americans
In today’s modern society, Riddler would be the EASIEST of Batman’s villains to rehabilitate
All you have to do? Give him a job designing/running an Escape Room facility
It’s perfect for him. A non-violent outlet for feeding his need to flex how intelligent he is, he still gets to create his elaborate puzzles and riddles, and people will willingly PAY HIM to lock them up in a room where he can mess with them for an hour or so
Someone get Bruce Wayne on the phone I have an idea for a thing he should invest in
Posting this iconic piece of media that I just NEVER found online isolated except in an archived reddit thread
This. This is storytelling done right.
The thing is, if Shepard acts all paragon-y throughout the series then you don't get that admission from Mordin because he can just fall in line behind Shepard. Don't get me wrong, Mordin sacrificing himself in order to spread the cure is still an amazing act of repentence and a fantastic, if tragic, ending of his arc.
BUT the thing is, he doesn't have to admit that he was wrong, he can just agree with Shepard while still maintaining that his initial decision to modify the genophage was correct.
Doing the right thing, the heroic thing, the noble thing is something different entirely than admitting your were wrong and fixing your mistake.
His modification of the genophage was the one thing that defined Mordin's career like nothing else. Amazing work, from a scientific point of view, but morally questionable even when seeing "the big picture", Morally reprehensible and ultimately inexcusable when seeing "the little pictures".
It's clear that after his loyalty mission in ME2 and meeting Eve, he's already changed his mind. But he can't admit it, not really. It's easier to keep making excuses, to explain himself, to rationalize. The great Mordin Solus does not make mistakes.
And it's only when Shepard takes the other route that Mordin has to step up. If Shepard won't be paragon, then Mordin has to. And that's much harder and it's the most amazing, the most heartbreaking thing. And when Mordin yells at a Shepard who takes the pragmatist appprach - which is what Mordin did for most of his life - he's actually yelling at himself.
Mass Effect did a lot of things brilliantly. This was one of them.
If only Shepard's ultimate ending decision had come with the same depth and weight, characterization-wise.
Thinking about how Garrus and Shepard are not exactly public with their relationship until ME3 and then suddenly someone with a camera sees two people sitting on the presidium with a sniper rifle doing target practice and at first thinks its just two random delinquents and then they zoom in AND ITS COMMANDER FUCKING SHEPARD KISSING A TURIAN.
what a way for the world to find that out. Especially with how the citadel seems to focus on ANY news but the imminent attack by the Reapers... the Press would have a field day.
there is something so darkly comical about tumblr potentially outliving twitter
tumblr, which is held together with duct tape and madness, run by three raccoons in blood stained Yahoo! hats and a handful of crabs, its only discernible source of income the sale of shoelaces from an inside joke so inside no one knows the original source anymore and fake blue checkmarks... that website still lives on
truly the cockroach of social media and I love it for that
The "you find your soul mate in every life" but it's Bram taking a 200 year long nap and being pissed the fuck off that Fyodor's both still here and that he's found him.
Again.
Fyodor: My dear devil we meet again.
Bram:... closes his coffin Maybe... Maybe next time.
Apparently I badly want to go on my “stop making fun of plague doctors, they were ahead of their time and doing the best they could with the primitive equipment they had available” rant.
I just think it would’ve been cool to have an argument with Joker at some point, especially in ME2. Where is all the tension about him being the reason Shepard stays behind a moment too late in Alchera? Where are Shepard’s feelings about him being all-too-willing to get into the new Normandy? I just think that if you put their survivor guilts and personal crises in the same room for more than 10 minutes you would get something messy and it would be so interesting.
