Shep, after fighting 3 games of humans that were experimented upon and turned into husks, abominations, scions, praetorians, AND BIG DAMN ASS HUMAN REAPER:  

oh yeah

edi has a belly button

like an acTUAL BUTTON

i wonder what

was born into poverty and sickness and raised by a single mother in Argentina until she died when he was 12 from a nationwide pandemic that he survived

impressed alliance military officials so much because of his scientific knowledge and talents at the age of TWELVE from an impoverished background, likely with little education

Enlisted at the age of 18 and became a comissioned officer in only 4 years

Was 22 when humanity first made contact with the Turians, and he has survived every major conflict since

Was the man that both Anderson and Shepard looked up to

Was probably the last hope for Earth

Stared down a looming threat not even the most advanced civilizations in the history of the galaxy had been able to comprehend, much less fight

Like half the Mass Effect fandom:

miranda lawson:

shepard standing in the middle of the CIC and shouting, “anyone who doesn’t want to be court-martialed when we get home should leave the ship immediately. no hard feelings, no questions.”

and pressly looks up at them and goes, “are we doing it? are we going after saren?” and they just look down at him and then nod, slowly. and pressly stands up straighter and looks them in the eye and goes, “then respectfully, commander, you couldn’t remove me from this ship if you tried.”

“It’s been a good ride.”

“The best.”
