“I like to think that when Kaidan watched the Normandy get destroyed by the Collector’s, and he found out that Fem Shepard had died, a part of him died, and the whole world just went grey. But when he found her again on Horizon, the part he thought was long dead, re-awoke. And he regretted everything he had said in his anger.”

“Kaidan wears his hair long in the back like that to cover up his amp port. He’s tired of answering stupid questions about what it’s like to be a biotic.”

“Kaidan was the worst sex Shepard had.”

“Kaidan comes from a family that have some negative views about LGBT persons, even though interspecies relationships are the big controversy of the time rather than sex and sexuality. Although he mostly rejects his family’s views on such matters, this is why his initial reaction to Shepard’s relationship with Liara is to point out her gender rather than her species.”

“Kaidan wears his hair like that, because the hair bump conceals his amp port.”

“Shepard began a relationship with Thane only because she knew that he wasn’t truly over Irikah, and she wasn’t over Kaidan. They both just needed some sort of companionship as they went to face what was surely going to be a suicide mission. It wasn’t a friends with benefit type deal, they genuinely cared for one another. But they just needed someone.”

“Kaidan and FemShep’s first kiss after Ilos and fighting Saren on the Citadel took place on the Normandy, in front of her locker. They finally shared the kiss they almost had before the lockdown. And this time, Joker didn’t interrupt them.”

“In the future, Kaidan and Fem!Shep have a daughter named Ashley.”

“Shepard was pregnant with Kaidan’s child when she died. Only she knew at the time and this is how the Illusive Man discovered their relationship when reviving her body. When Shepard woke up and found she’d lost the baby, she was devastated, leading to her brutal nature. She kept herself together only for the sake of the mission and her crew.”
