We’re back! 

1) Awkward Calhoun unsure how to comfort grieving husband. 

2) Calhoun was relieved to see Anderson alive, after having to make the painful choice to leave him, she was glad to have him bug her in the comm room. 

3) When you gotta get shit done you bring the 50,000 year old Prothean and your buddy Garrus! To...go rescue a station full of biotic children!

4) I was so excited to see Jack here at the academy and I’m sure Calhoun made an attempt to hug Jack and got decked (again) for it. 

5) Calhoun is just grumbling to herself; “I’m just trying to save the galaxy and I’m the one that gets stuck holding open the damn door.”

5.a) I was EXTREMELY happy to see David Archer here! I legit screamed with excitement when I heard his little square root equation and I know Calhoun was relieved as fuck to see that he was healthy and thriving. I’m just sad I couldn’t get a screenshot. 

6) Calhoun’s “I need help with family matters” senses are tingling again. 

7) And they continue yet again.

8) I had taken this picture because I love Joker, and I felt Calhoun was just venting...AND THEN I SAW HIS EYES.

9) Calhoun brings her Prothean obsessed girlfriend to talk with Javik.

I made a meme in a time of screenshot drought for the like 4 people that actually bother looking at my terribly timed screenshots haha.

Calhoun loves explosives almost as much as she loves headbutts.

It has been a hot minute since I’ve uploaded Calhoun adventures! I think mostly what takes me forever is getting the desire to edit my screenshots since my computer takes a screenshot for both of my monitors lol. 

1) I had to go AFK during this scene with Vega so when I came back I was like “woah why am I bleeding?” Anyway I took it as Calhoun letting Vega get in a few good punches before she just decks him into the ground.

2) Calhoun “Smooth af” Shepard, flirting with Liara. Again. I swear. Does Calhoun do nothing else?

3/4/5) Calhoun and Garrus reconnecting again. As much as Calhoun loves Wrex - Garrus was another person she loved being around. Even if they did have different approaches to how to get things done.

6) Calhoun accidently triggered “Edi you’re a real person!” dialog and thus here we are haha.

7) I died when they all landed awkwardly on the ground xD

8/9/10) How am I gonna tell the world I revived ANOTHER previously extinct alien species? Surely they won’t be...too mad right?

The end of yet another Mass Effect. As the door closes on Mass Effect 2, I can honestly say I really did like it - even if it did just feel like “find people to help and make them be your friend” quests. 

I was also glad that Calhoun’s suspicions were true. 

1) Calhoun Shepard isn’t great at making speeches. Sure they’re needed from time to time, but she prefers to be a background voice rather than the main focus. Ironic considering how she likes to make entrances.

2) Calhoun taking grouchy grandpa and questionable biotic woman with her.

3/4) Calhoun finds out why the Collectors where only collecting human bodies. Frankly she was disgusted and upset that she had been so slow to react.

5) The Illusive Man offers unhelpful commentary. Calhoun wanted nothing more than to turn around and strangle the man after he suggested they only get rid of the collectors and use the ship for tech advantages. 

6) The escape! The entire time thought I was like “oh my god I’m going to lose another crew member!” But thankfully Calhoun’s allies are pretty damn strong.

7)  Calhoun was used to hanging up on the Council, she was frankly missing it. There was no greater feeling than telling Joker to kill the feed.

8/9/10) Despite Calhoun’s blowing up of an entire galaxy...the Reapers are still coming. I’m sure this is her contemplating what the hell is going to happen next. But for now...she has to turn herself in for committing a genocide.

I was gonna try and make this 1 part. But I forgot about the DLC’s. So here are the “Arrival” and “Overlord” DLC packs. 

1/2) Who else would you bring for geth fun except Legion! :D my friend was right he makes for some great dialog.

3) “Ah shit, here we go again.”

4) To say Shepard had nightmares about poor David was an understatement. And immediately it made her blood boil.

5) I really wish you could’ve killed this guy. But hopefully the Alliance snatched him up or he was forced to live with what he did. 

6) Just Calhoun, your local Alliance Commander and part time errand gal!

7) The amount of times Calhoun did this pose when I was asking Kenson about shit killed me. 

8) The only time Calhoun gets to rest...is when she’s unconscious. 

9) I ended up doing the Arrival DLC after I finished the collectors base. I’m not sure what the “proper” time to do this, but ah well.

Another part of Calhoun’s adventures last night! Again this is like part 2 of 3 since Tumblr is only letting me upload so many at a time. 

1) I was trying to capture a certain moment with this screenshot and honestly I had to save this one. Because it just looks like Calhoun freaking decked this woman with a headbutt. 

2) When you bring your grouchy grandfather and your questionable aunt to help sway your morals.

3) PS they did not sway your morals and you all took turns shooting a merc.

4) Can’t go visit Illium and not get a picture of the Biotic god! 

5) Calhoun is questioning her life choices up to this point.

6) “No, no. She’s got a point.”

7) I want you all to know that Calhoun ALMOST stopped romancing Liara the second Samara showed up. 

8) I just think she’s neat.

9) The group arrives on Tuchanka.

It’s that time folks, time for more Calhoun shenanigans. I get caught up taking screenshots so...I tend to have a crap ton to upload. Considering just finding 10 of the most memorable from each session and loading them in. But who knows.

1/2) When you find out Miranda kidnapped her genetically modified sister, who was technically a child, but not really a child. 

3/4/5) After a long trek up the building, Calhoun really just wanted to headbutt someone out of a building. Look! her wish came true! :D 

6) “Teacher, Timmy’s bullying me.” (I swear it just looked like the trio was wandering up to the teacher’s desk xD) 

7) They wouldn’t let Calhoun drive so she got a light up keyboard she could press buttons on that made sound.

8) WE KILLED GRANDMA! (Turns out Calhoun is a good drinker but Chakwas is not.)

9) Calhoun looks like she’s thinking of doing a crime, and Zaeed is just waiting for the fallout.

Part 2 of 2 for recruitment of: Grunt and Jack, visits on Horizon and crashing the Citadel! (oh and some Omega stuff, I don’t think I uploaded this last screenshot)

1) I was not expecting Admiral Hackett to look like this. I called him ugly haha.

2) Calhoun Shepard has a close relationship with Captain Anderson I feel. He’s kind of the fun uncle in her life that she goes to when shit’s hit the fan. Closer to him than either of her parents, honestly. Despite the choices you get in game, Calhoun vented to him and told him everything that had happened since she woke up in a Cerberus lab. She’s also potentially explained her doubts about Cerberus and how honestly she doesn’t have much other choice working with them at this rate. 

3/4) Calhoun really wanted to blow shit up on Horizon, maybe commit a few arsons to stop the collectors. Zaeed and Mordin gently explained “no”.

5) Calhoun immediately hit it off with Grunt. He openly tried to kill her within the first five minutes of them meeting and almost headbutt her. I imagine, despite game cinematics, Shepard and Grunt did exchange a few good headbutts and Shepard had to stagger back to Chakwas to patch up her forehead. The plate just hasn’t held the same since Cerberus initially took it out.

6) The Shep-stare of doom.

7) When you reunite with your girlfriend after being dead for like 2 years.

8) Calhoun Shepard has arrived on the Citadel. 

9) Don’t mind us random Turian man. We’re just having a great conversation about how Jack was jumped by seven guys, while in a public restroom on the Citadel. This is what women do right? For bonding? 

10) I REALLY wish I didn’t have a helmet on. I feel Calhoun’s face was working glorious miracles.
