Do Drell even have reproductive organs like humans do?

Because if they're like the rest of their bodies, it may... hurt quite a bit.

Did, uhh... did I just enjoy romance-related video game fan fiction? In comic form? On the internet?

Good lord, what will become of me?

Well, least it was a good fan-fiction.
...
That was easier to say in my mind.

On topic, it sure was a nice change ... and a damn emotional one at that.
Yet it only reminds me the ending of Mass Effect 3, and we all try not to think of that.
Still, it was nice ...

... I feel like I'm going to tear up and condemn Bioware once again.

Ribbed for her pleasure.

Awesome comic BTW, but all it did was make me really wish I could see my red-headed FemShep wear an N7 hoodie and eat Blasto-O's in the morning.

I hate fanfiction.

More specifically, I hate this concept of "fanfiction", as a separate, inherently less respectable form of creativity than the other stories that happen to be approved by a copyright monopoly.

In art, there are no "original stories", and "stealing", only stories that are ALL derviatively based on one another, yet all adding something new.

A dangerously open-minded fella who is willing to experiment with new mediums and genres, instead of taking prejudiced, Sturgeon's law ignoring, fandom-shaming stereotypes at a face value.

Decent comic. Touching. And not just in the literal sense.

I'm betting more like "serrated for her pleasure" but maybe that's what she's into?

The afternote pretty much summed up my issue with Mass Effect 3's character writing. So much of what they did with Shepard completely went against what I imagined her to be like. It's kind of funny that they did it to try and make Shepard more "realistic" but in doing so made the character feel jarring for me to play as.

It makes me feel kind of sad, because this comic had more of the spark that made me enjoy Mass Effect than ME3 did. It r

Gorgeous artwork too, especially Shepard's design.

And now all I can think of is the lust scene from Se7en.

Another comic that wants to make me build a time machine to kill the Mass Effect writers and force Bioware to hire these guys...

Fuck you Einstein and your theory of relativity.

Oh hey...a reminder that I indeed have feels...next time try not to sucker-punch them please. I need a few minutes of happy to counter-act that. It was a great comic, don't get me wrong but geeze...

I advise not to do these comics with Shepherd as a central piece. There was literally nothing in this where I could say, "Yep, that's my Shep."

Woah woah woah, "another"? Somewhere in the Escapist there's a second one of these? I desperately need a link

Good comic. See guys? Fan fiction isn't all bad.

Stuff like this just makes the ending stick out even more, though. Like Grey said, there is potential for lots of in universe stories. There were small stories like that in the original trilogy as well. Details only found in lore, small and insignificant in the grand scheme, but still there to be enjoyed.

What a shame the way it turned out.
