Reblog if you've ever felt like a shitty RPer.

“Your boss,” she repeated, easing back on her heels. Why had nobody mentioned a boss before? Were they uninformed, or just lazy in filing? She’d certainly have to pester somebody about that later.

“Your boss have a name?” she asked.

[tavianalvia]

“Yeah…” Tavi said hesitantly.  ”It’s not a name the Alliance needs to know.”  Last thing he needed was to get Senya pissed at him just because some random woman on the street decided to get nosy.

She shifted her weight uneasily. She hesitated briefly, debating on how to follow up. "Tavian," she sighed, "The Alliance is looking to this volus because they were found to be in possession of so many illegal weapons mods, Aria T'Loak's head would spin." She eased back, her shoulders resting coolly. "I'm not sure you'd like to be the person keeping me from investigating that."

Eris drifted toward the round, hard figure in front of her, as inadvertently stealthy as ever. He showed no sign of being aware of her presence as she approached. As she saw no benefit in startling a visibly tense krogan, she saw fit to yank up the zipper on her jacket. Although...

She watched the krogan's body language carefully. He didn't seem to be much of a threat, but he also didn't know why she was there. The extranet vids showed her that krogans could turn full blood-rage at the drop of a hat. She made certain to keep her distance from him because of this.

"I'm Eris, here on behalf of the Alliance," she greeted, pensively glancing for the nearest escape routes before she continued. "Does the name Matfe Nimor sound familiar to you?" she asked.

“Easy, Tavian,” she said, extending a hand to him. “My name is Eris Ivers. I’m not here to cause any harm, I’d just like to ask you about one of your clients. Specifically, a volus by the name of Relira Mesey. Do you know of him?”

[tavianalvia]

“My clients?” Tavi’s stare turned from nervous...

“Keeping in line with the previous confession, I absolutely DESPISE Traynor and Cortez as characters - they are both altogether useless, and exist solely for the player to come over and screw them. Allers is far preferable to the both of them, as far as i’m concerned - at least her character had some sort of a purpose (role of the media and PR in war), even if it was atrociously implemented. Traynor and Cortez are both pointless fan pandering.”

(I played as femshep and enjoyed her interactions and her bonding with Cortez, as well as the way he allowed for some insight into Vega instead of just letting him be a meatblock stuffed in the basement. I think I learned more about Vega's psychology from their interactions than I did from talking to him, honestly. Cortez also serves to help remind you that although you saved the galaxy from the Collectors, and although you're trying to save it from the Reapers, you didn't save everybody, and you can't save everybody.

And as far as Traynor goes, I enjoyed having somebody to mess around with on the ship who I didn't need to bring around on missions, and didn't nag me for help. She seemed to be sort of an anchor for Shepard; company who was just short of a civillian, no risk, no nagging, just a friend. She was one of the few crewmembers without a gun who felt she was able to speak with Shepard on an equal level, while everyone else treated Shep as some highly superior being. Traynor was Shepard's reminder that there were people lower in command, real people. Not just people, but real, true individuals.

I played as FemShep and liked them both and didn't sleep with Traynor. Sorry, OP, I'm sure you're a lovely person, but I didn't enjoy seeing your thoughtless post on my dash.

Bedtime.)

 Something moved behind him, barely visible to him in the corner of his vision. Bentack swiveled his head around and turned to meet the newcomer, mildly surprised to see a human woman standing behind him. Something seemed … off about her though. It was in her scent—she didn’t smell human at all.

“Rmm.” He rumbled in quiet confusion, but still didn’t forgo the usual customs after being approached. “Something I can do for you, lady?”

Eris drifted toward the round, hard figure in front of her, as inadvertently stealthy as ever. He showed no sign of being aware of her presence as she approached. As she saw no benefit in startling a visibly tense krogan, she saw fit to yank up the zipper on her jacket. Although an angry krogan looking her in the eye was unappealing, it was more comforting than the alternative.

She stuffed her hands in her pockets as casually as she could as he called out to her. Krogans had always frightened her, since the moment she had stepped onto the Citadel. It was difficult to establish the fact from fiction during her research, but most of it indicated that a krogan was the only thing that could tear her to shreds if they wanted to. A quick scan of the heavy shape in front of her suggested that her research was true.

"You're Bentack," she called, "Right?"

“Tavian Alvia, correct?” she said, “I’m here on behalf of the Alliance— I’ve got some questions for you if you’ve got a moment.”

[tavianalvia]

Tavi’s mandibles twitched in sudden nervousness.  ”Questions?  What kinda questions would the Alliance have for me?  How do you know my last name?”

[projecteris-blog]

"Easy, Tavian," she said, extending a hand to him. "My name is Eris Ivers. I'm not here to cause any harm, I'd just like to ask you about one of your clients. Specifically, a volus by the name of Relira Mesey. Do you know of him?"

Hi there.  Name’s Tavian, Tavi if you want.  You need something?

[projecteris-blog]

"Tavian Alvia, correct?" she said, "I'm here on behalf of the Alliance-- I've got some questions for you if you've got a moment."

Do you ever love a character so much that every single time you see them, it just makes you want to clutch your chest and yell out “MY BABYYYYYYYYY”

Good, now all we need to do is shut down Cerberus and the reapers and you can stay safe.  Then you can do… whatever you want, the sky’s the limit.”

[projecteris-blog]

“Shut down Cerberus,” she said, “Is that all?”

[paladinedwards]

“Yeah, that’s it.  Shouldn’t be a big deal.  And if not, we just need to kick them all off of the Citadel.”

"You make it sound so easy," she laughed.
