Arts And Crafts Are Killing Me. Badly

arts and crafts are killing me. badly

Thinking about an overprotective Ace who considers yuu his responsibility. He believes he has a right to stake claim over yuu, he talked to yuu first after all. When you were written off as a trouble maker with no knowledge of their world, no redeeming qualities, and cast aside as a janitor, who bullied enlightened you on the great seven? Right? 😭

It's cute. He doesn't have to be so protective, he's obviously not naturally inclined to take that role. His identity, outside of mischief, is informed by his relationship to his older brother. He could just default to mimicking those patterns with yuu, but he doesn't. With his senpais, Ace coaxes them into taking more responsibility for him than necessary. Like, in his loungewear vignette, Kalim throws him an audacious feast after his birthday which he has no problem accepting. Evidently he's not against being the younger brother or being shamelessly taken care of.

But, in regards to Yuu, his voice-lines, vignettes, and main story dialogue, all subtly express a desire to take on more responsibility for their sake. (He says it outright in his level up line) His suisui vignette has him taking control and trying to protect yuu from an unknown threat at the time. This is a major shift in contrast to his presence in Playful Land, where he is reluctant to lead while older students are still present. He gathers Deuce in book 5 to rescue yuu from Scarabia, and takes a stern tone with yuu after they admit to leaving of their own volition to follow Malleus in his enhalo vignette. Yuu is the catalyst for Ace growing up, we don't see Yuu have such an impact on other characters. 😭

But of course he wants to protect his prefect, they're only magic less and he's only human after all lol

garrus wanting children and wanting them with shepard always makes me AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

like I knows it's also a nudge nudge wink wink we'll have sex and a lot of it and it'll all be without protection apparently

but like why mr. vakarian would you bring up babies specifically. And when Shepard replies that she is either up for it, or that she isn't sure if that's a good idea, he just keeps pressing the idea of having a child with suggesting either that there will be a lot of krogan babies that might need taking care of or that their hypothetical child would be scared of "daddy's rifle collection" - his words not mine.

That turian wants babies. He most definitely wants children. Or at the very least the idea of a family with Shepard. But I really do think he wouldn't push the idea that much if he didn't really want it.

no guys im normal about zack and cloud constantly struggling to reach each other im really really normal about it i promise

Kasumi's line about people wanting Shepard and Garrus to be together is so cute because I just know that the people on the normandy were shipping them so hard and they knew before Shepard and Garrus even really comprehended their own feeling as romantic

the idea of garrus looking up and researching human behaviors is just so funny to me because you know that he's reading that wikipedia page back to front. He's taking notes, he's reading multiple articles, he's clicking on those sources. He takes it so seriously and yet when he finally meets Shepard again in ME3 he's like "i've been reading up human culture but also if you don't want me that way anymore it's totally fine." sir we know that you would not be fine if shepard called it off there
