Dorothy Shepard really showed how sexy scars are, especially with that red hair. A drell can get a woman but I can't, foreveralone.

Gah! Stop reminding me of the other emotions- I mean, ploygo- I mean, emotions! Are you trying to make me miserable?!blackrave said:I don't get it
There are no polygons, then how can there be emotions?
Grey, did you rendered this comic on Frostbite or Cryengine?
Because there must be polygons, simply must.
And a lot of them.
P.S. Although must admit Door had more polygons
Not you, too!The Wooster said:
PS: Also, I've thought of a dedication: "That was for Thane, you son of a *****!"
By then, enough time has passed that the Citadel would have fully recovered from the first attack. It doesn't fly in my logic center. As I said, Anderson comments on how quick the repairs have been to the citadel. He even specifically points out that the main commerce districts and population centers were already fully repaired. Then we have to account at least 6 more months of repair time, between the events of the Arrival DLC and the beginning of ME3.Tono Makt said:
Even if they hadn't finished rebuilding that particular district, they would have at very least finished clearing out the rubble.
Still liked the story, none the less.
So many feels. Brings me back to when I played citadel the first time. How pailful it is to say goodbye. To move on. Great comic guys. Makes me wish I could forget all about mass effect just so I can play it all over as if i'm playing it the first time. ^^
Thane was probably my favorite male character, both the right amount of alien quality and yet so sad of a story, so terminal. And that was so my Shep... down to the scars. Wow, I am moved and happy by this comic, thank you Grey and Rachel for this awesome piece. I'd so pay for a physical copy to lovingly display it...
Wherein art is derivative, it is still unique for us all.

Fantastic stuff, gang. I particularly like the subtle dichotomy in the movie scene; Thane lamenting that this is being added to his permanent memory base, while Shepard is probably using the most mindless movie imaginable to deliberately blot out the memories she doesn't want to recall right now. Neat.
This was still nice even though I have no emotional connection to Thane. He was forever stowed in my ship, even dying once because I forgot to do his loyalty mission...

13 year old men? I think the word you're looking for is adolescent, a 13 year old may not really be a child any-longer (whatever the law may say) but they're not an adult either. But yeah, I agree completely but unfortunately a lot of people don't and interpret PC13 as 'no sex please' for threads. Seems a little incongruent given a lot of the official content here but whateverCandidus said:
I think I agree with you, assuming you mean fanfiction is not a lower form of art or anything like that. It's quality varies just like everything else and it can lead to some really annoying legal battles, some which are the fault of companies, occassionally they are the fault of the fanfiction writer.Entitled said:
So yeah, not much difference at all.
OT: Excellent comic, never tried this paring in mass effect but maybe I will now.
They can be the "fault of the writer" in a common sense meaning, that is, if you knowingly disobey copyright law and get sued, you kind of had it coming.Dark Knifer said:
But looking at a bigger picture of copyright's morality, it is pretty atrocious that nowadays publishers can get away with stretching intellectual "property" so far, that it extends to banning other people's works just because it uses an "universe" that they claim to control.
"Fanfiction" as a thing only exists because of this "IP" control. Historically, picking up previous writers' works and continuing, altering, or countering them, has always been a main form of creativity. Homer's Iliad wasn't a greek superhero crossover fanfic, and Virgil's Aeneid wasn't an Iliad spinoff ignoring the continuity set by The Odyssey, these were just people writing what they knew.
That nowadays comparable works would be called fanfics, that writers have to hide along the grey areas of non-commercial Fair Use, and/or flying under the publisher's radar, so the only motivation left to continue with their legally unpublishable work is fannish obsession, is in itself an unnatural state.
This is true. In the instance of blaming the writers of fanfiction I was talking a specific example which I should have mentioned but I am lacking details as I can't seem to find the website but an author of an established series was working on the 4th book of the franchise. She came across a fanfiction of her work which hald a rather similar premise to her yet-to-be-released book so she did the right thing and contacted that author and offered compensation to the fanfiction writer so she could use her idea. This was merely a coincidence but the fanction author demanded co-authorship of new book and 50% of all profits.Entitled said:
So the book never got made because of fanfiction.
Overall, I think fanfiction can be a wonderful thing but many established writers, not companies, take issue with fanfiction, such as George.R.R Martins of Song of ice and fire fame.
As it is with most things both sides can be excellent or extremely petty but I do enjoy certain fanfiction, like 'The Unity Saga'
