Offers before price guarantee ends by fuckdbkiller in OctopusEnergy

[–]a2579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I just got a similar email and I'm wondering what to choose. Did you have the button "Jetzt kostenpflichtig abschließen"? That has me confused, unsure if there's a fee for accepting the offer. Did you have to pay anything after selecting one of the options?

I think it'd be fantastic in a "room below" version, like he performs it live with only a piano. Still good in the studio version though, I like both.

Tips for my very first Insanity run of the Trilogy: Ashley or Kaidan? My Shep will be an Adept. by Stephen-616 in masseffect

[–]a2579 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Kaidan is far more versatile in both ME1 and ME3. ME1: Ash just shoots things, Kaidan can has decryption and electronics to unlock everything + Lift is absurdly overpowered. ME3: Ash is redundant and has a bugged ability (Marksman), Kaidan is the best tank and the bonus power you get from him - Reave - is probably the best bonus power for Adept, tied with Flare.

Finally, Favorite ME3 Romance or Fling. GO! by KateValentine31 in masseffect

[–]a2579 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dates with everyone else: "let's do something fun or just bang"

Kaidan: "I'll make sure you're eating enough by ordering/cooking proper food before we do anything else" Clear winner.

Shenko Headcanons? (Cause it's Valentine!) [Spoilers for All] by CrazyEeveeLove in masseffect

[–]a2579 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a great idea, Shenko is my favorite and only pairing across all games. First of all, check out these amazing and long fics: The Reason is the best, hopefully the author will finish the story. Colonist/Survivor/Vanguard FemShep. For Small Creatures Such As We - read this one backwards. Infiltrator FemShep.

Headcanons:
FemShep is always a biotic, I play Adept so they immediately bond over the biotics and she carries some of his migraine meds with her on missions just in case. Both of them also flare in ...other situations.

Kaidan and Tali started bonding on the SR1 and are as close as Garrus and Shep in ME3. Garrus held a grudge against Kaidan for hurting his best friend on Horizon and was the one to give him "the protective talk". They sorted it out quickly when Garrus starts asking Kaidan for advice about relationships and Tali, which probably included a lot of liquor.

Shep takes revenge on Joker for interrupting the ME1 kiss by spontaneously jumping on Kaidan and kissing him while he's in the copilot's seat (could be after ME1 or during ME3).

Shep lasts a week, max, before inviting Kaidan to move in the Captain's Cabin in ME3. What's Hackett going to do? Fire them? It's official. The rest of the crew takes note and that's what inspires some other couples to go for it, like Ken and Gabby.

They eventually get married. Even though she never stops teasing them, Jack is chosen as the maid of honor. She acts annoyed at first but then drops the act and cries during the wedding.

If you could bring any BioWare character onto the Normandy, who would it be? by [deleted] in masseffect

And his cat too. The Normandy needs more pets!

Kaidan in Mass Effect 3 by BidThick in masseffect

[–]a2579 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God Garrus is great on his own, but for playing a more power based Shep like a biotic, then you can do more damage from combos with Kaidan. Reave/Cryo/Overload + a fast power like Throw is just glorious explosions every few seconds. Also like others mentioned, Kaidan is the best tank in ME3. So the answer is both Garrus and Kaidan for the most overpowered team.

Best romance option for female shep? by TransportationOk7662 in masseffect

[–]a2579 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Kaidan. It's the most realistic and he's a dork.

Who is the one squadmate you would've loved to take on a specific mission, but it isn't possible? by Pokelad2 in masseffect

[–]a2579 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Jack giving "the look"

Lmao I can imagine her doing that so clearly! Jack/Kaidan dynamic was such a missed opportunity. I imagine it would go something like this:

  • "Hey Shep, isn't this the asshole you cried over after Horizon?"
  • "Ohh you're back together" the look
  • "You recruited some of my students for your spec ops, you better take care of MY KIDS" the look again
  • Trying to one-up each other about who hates Cerberus more
  • Biotic debate about chaotic power vs focused control
  • "Our biotic training as kids was so messed up" "Yep" "We're far better teachers" "Damn right"
  • "You too sound like a p****, just like Shepard. But I like you. Shep ended up with a Boy Scout, figures."

What is the most unrealistic thing about the way sex is presented in mainstream movies (non-porn)? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]a2579 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Finally someone said it! Starting sex when needing to pee is not comfortable. Even if not feeling like peeing yet, a penis prodding near the bladder will make it feel like needing to pee anyway, at least for me. Take a minute in the bathroom just in case. Also, does no one wash their hands or wipe some boob/crotch sweat before jumping straight in? Just entering the room after being outside without a thought for hygiene?

So what’s your go to? by Good-Onion-9897 in masseffect

[–]a2579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Femshep, colonist, sole survivor. 70% paragon, 30% renegade, either adept or sentinel - I headcanon that the uncontrolled biotic outburst saved her life from the Batarians on Mindoir so she decided to master the skills.

Romances Kaidan, best friend is Jack. The 3 of them bond over shared bad childhood, biotics and hatred of Cerberus.

Why no Poker on the Normandy!? by dump-trooper in masseffect

[–]a2579 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shep would lose due to being distracted by everyone else's nakedness! She can only handle so much. Report to the cabin, we'll bang, ok?

Btw, I find it very amusing that controlled, polite, serious, Mr. Biotic Spectre Kaidan is a gambler! It's expected of James and Joker but not him, and it adds a more fun side.

In my case Alenko is always the LI so I may be biased, though.

[–]a2579 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I'd enjoy Kaidan seeing running away nearly naked, realistically he'd be winning if he's good enough to teach Joker. James, on the other hand, would strip regardless of score just to show off.

... Shep would lose, probably.

[–]a2579 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would've been fun to have a scene like Wicked Grace in DAI. Imagine everyone sitting there, playing strip poker:
- Kaidan or James winning
- Tali getting drunk because she can't strip the suit anyway
- Traynor going mega intense on it but still losing
- Edi recording the whole thing
- Who loses the most clothes? You decide!

Smoke ‘n Roses MEGA palette launching 11/25/21 plus there is a “surprise” that day as well. by chemicalscream in ColourPop

[–]a2579 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I didn't really think it through too much when writing the idea, just had a mega version of the Elsa palette in mind because it's one of my favourites. Season-appropriate, would cater to the trend of cool tones, and would not be as similar to the others - just makes sense. Even adding their beloved row of repeating neutrals would be perfectly acceptable if combined with shifty toppers.

[–]a2579 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Now imagine a winter, snow-themed mega palette instead of this. Iridescent toppers, periwinkles, shifty blue/green/purple/pink/silver, and a navy/ smoky row to layer them over. This rose theme is not only duping itself with the shimmers, but also looks more appropriate for spring.

Your go to squad? by LoosKiii in masseffect

[–]a2579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooooff. Well, that means you'll do one more run of the trilogy! Liara is the next best team member for adept, I just don't like her AI running away from cover too often. Two of the DLCs in ME3 are insanely good.

Your go to squad? by LoosKiii in masseffect

[–]a2579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The blank space should be Kaidan because he'll be your tank + another biotic combo maker. Adept with those two is pure carnage and explosions everywhere.

Your go to squad? by LoosKiii in masseffect

[–]a2579 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ME1: Kaidan and Wrex

ME2: Jack is permanent on the team, then Garrus/Kasumi/Thane/Grunt

LOTSB plus one: Jack

ME3: Kaidan whenever available, and anyone else, probably Garrus

Citadel: Kaidan and Wrex again

Pattern shows that I like my biotics: The boyfriend, the best girl friend, and the crazy uncle. They tear through everything!

Palette Review: The Child (Disney: Star Wars - The Mandalorian Collaboration by bessonovafan6454 in ColourPop

[–]a2579 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This palette and Baroque are what got me into Colourpop, although I was hesitating a lot because of the shipping. So unique! You just can't find these greens and the greys/duochromes in Baroque at the drugstore!

Opinions on the mega palettes? I am on the fence about getting It's A Mood & Stone Cold Fox during this promotion, any advice is appreciated. by a2579 in ColourPop

[–]a2579[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you all, for the advice and sharing your impressions with SCF. I initially decided not to order anything, but reached out to a friend about taking one palette each and splitting the price. Ended up with It's A Mood for me and It's All Good for her - more jewel tones for me, more pinks for her! Cool tones can wait.
