I love it! Very good writing and you captured both Garrus and Shepard perfectly! This would've been a great in-game scene! :D

[the_confounded]

A belated thanks - mostly I try to treat them as straight man (Garrus) and Magnificent Bastard (Wrex), as I think that's what the game was going for.

[the_confounded]

Wow, that was a total brainfart...comes from working with Wrex too much. Shepard is also a magnificent bastard, just sort of a different flavor of one. Less bastard, more magnificent.

Yay for Shep/Garrus, they have the greatest chemistry. Too bad it wasn't an in-game option!

[the_confounded]

Glad you enjoyed it. I'd have liked to see more interplay between the teammates beyond the canned "I think you should be paragon" "No, I think you should be renegade" things they do sometimes, but you know how it is >.

Well done! You pull off Garrus really nicely.

[the_confounded]

I'm glad you like my portrayal of him. Wrex is more difficult to write in my opinion, I'm not so good at writing "rude."

[dvana]

Nicely executed. I loved the last line there, very slick.

Thanks, I try to go for "stingers" at the end if I can manage it.
