whoops i installed texture mods too spaced out from the dlc mods in mele and i ended up wearing casual clothes on the normandy that i can't post here... real awkward on that first conversation with captain anderson....

So this is a reject from the nsfw challenge but I thought I’d “finish” the sketch since I never draw these two. They make me sad.

Oh no, poor Shepard :-(

Yeeaahh, I wasn’t super nice to her in her playthrough. She can make good, sympathetic choices when it comes to other people but she makes kind of bad personal choices and has no self awareness. She falls in love with Thane, which obviously doesn’t go well. She manages to survive the Crucible but really, really wishes she hadn’t and falls into some extremely self destructive behavior before James Vega helps pull her out of it.

Her headspace is hard for me to stay in for long and I don’t consider her my “canon” Shepard even though I do love her and all her very broken pieces.

My first Shepard--Gabrielle “Gabi” Shepard--I don’t think I’ve really mentioned her here.

Hid in Mindor’s apiary when the batarians raided. Can’t stand the taste of honey anymore and sometimes, when exhaustion has bruised her eyelids and the weight of decision presses her shoulders like a vise, she can hear the buzzing of the bees in the hum from the ship. And only the pull of alcohol into restless sleep can deaden the sound.
