“Joker had Kasumi hack Garrus’ visor as a joke. To this day Garrus still can’t forget the image of two Krogan going at it.”

“Sometimes Shepard wonders if there’s something wrong with her. She’s always reaching out to help other people — total strangers, her crew, her friends — with their problems. But no one ever asks about her day and, frankly, after coming back from the dead she could use someone to bring her a cup of coffee (or whiskey) and say “welcome home” and “tell me what’s bothering you.” But no one ever does and she never says anything because in probably doesn’t matter in the end. Not with the Reapers on the way. “

“I feel that Garrus has the potential to be evil in Mass Effect 3. In Mass Effect 2 he had a really dark/evil tone to himself. To be honest, if it comes to it, I would kill my entire squad for Garrus.”

“When Miranda’s constant surveillance of the Normandy crew showed her how much Shepard struggled with her still unfinished body and its digestive, sleep and skin problems without letting it slow her down an iota, Miranda gained some desperatly needed perspective on her own problems.

That’s the reason Miranda thawed out of her ice queen persona so quickly.”

“If Shepard dies during the endgame of Mass Effect 2, it’s because she can’t live with herself knowing that all of the teammates who died were entirely her fault, and decides that she should’ve stayed dead the first time.”

“In my headcanon Zaeed is actually Shepard’s biological father. He was dating with Hannah, but when she told him that she was pregnant, he didn’t believe her and left her. She met and later married to someone called Shepard while she was still pregnant. Commander Shepard doesn’t know anything about this, and Zaeed realized it only after he was recruited on Omega and learned who is Shepard’s mom.”
