Exactly. Most info we got about Vetra was through reviews. Including romance dialogues. It's mostly putting the pieces together from different articles at this point.

I wonder if we can buy a gift for Vetra? Dextro chocolate?

Hey, my friend could still be wrong, but, yes, I trust his source and Chee. As for bisexuality, some bisexual people I know approach romance differently depending on their partner's gender, but that's not something that is going to true to the experience of every bisexual individual. Even if Vetra has the same kind of reactions to either, it's not out of playersexuality. Some people's relationships just aren't all that dependent on the gender of who they're dating, and I think it's fine to depict that, too. Well I'm trusting your judgement on your fried trustworthiness. Well, this friend was right about Suvi being written by Chee. It's a rather specific thing to know. Fingers crossed!

Nothing is said and done till we don't get confirmation from game data or from the dev team, post-release.
For all we know, she's not even available for Scott. Again, this was only one interaction with one romantic dialogue option.

Still, the notion of a writer actually having to fight and campaign for their character to be bi just shouldn't happen, and its really, really troubling to me. Get over to the PM chat. You might like what we are talking about! New info?

I will be totally disappointed if Sara can't romance Vetra. I don't want to romance Jaal. The guys can have Jall, I want Vetra. I hope we get clarity on this soon. If not, I guess I'll find out on the 16th. That's if I get that far. You gals had a turian last time, now is our turn.
No.... be nice to the other boards members.

Let's not jump to conclusions yet. There might be a lot of factors at play. For all we know, the situation could be reversed, and she could be romanced by Sara and not by Scott in the end. From her response to a flirt to clear cut romance, there's a gap.

Okay, so general update on what has been reported about Vetra's interactions with the Ryders: Spoiler alert, as usual. As I showed in my previous posts the two reviewers, from Kotaku Aus. and MEOdyssey reported selecting a romance dialogue option (not flirt? No way to be sure) with Vetra as Scott. She responded positively. As Ash reported, inviting Scott to come back later. New update from PCGamesN, with Sara and Vetra. "playing as Sara Ryder, we had a flirt option with Vetra during our hands-on preview. She didn't seem too into it though, laughing awkwardly and changing the subject, which means she's either shy or not interested in a same-sex pairing." Bear in mind they all had access to the early game (without Vetra) and mid-game. (All squadmates). Now, Vetra's reaction to Sara was maybe due to the fact she used a flirt option rather than romance? If they're even separated? She might react the same way with Scott, if these are the same options. We need to ask the reviewers if they had several options to choose from. So again, it doesn't add much to what we know. But I wanted to deliver first hand accounts on these updates. We'll see in a few days.

There's been two accounts from reviewers that there was a romance dialogue between Vetra and Scott, and she responded positively. A third one with Sara, with less detail from the reviewer.
That's about it.

It's a bit different from being the one dimensional stern mother hen.
I feel she's going to be an interesting and complex character. With a mix of badass merc, concerned big Sis and maybe as a person who's looking for a sense of purpose, above simply being a gun for hire. And beyond her dedicating herself to the ones she trusts.

Actually I linked him explaining he got that option in his first review comment video.
This is a second confirmation, with more details in the new interview video. He roughly says what is said between the two.

Same for me. I really liked Garrus as character, and the friend-mentor to lover-equal relationship that built up with FemShep. That's why it was one of my favourite romances. And lore wise, Turians are my favourite too. So we might learn much more. And her backstory sounds really interesting too! Besides, she's tall, and the voice ;_; To answer some comments, I think it's been dispelled by some scientifically literate people that the whole Dextro/levo allergy stuff was not accurate, as we do have some in our diet. Namely mint? And to end this post, fan art time from Stormcallart

So that makes two reviews reporting flirt between Vetra and Scott. Mention of Sara as well. Source

Got a response from the kotaku article writer as to who she was playing, "Scott, but apparently she responds pretty well to Sarah as well. I wish Bioware would stop being so mysterious about whether she's a romance option..." I like this Kotaku writer, she understands! Good to know that whether we've seen someone note it in an article or not, vetra does respond to femryder with something over than changing the subject. Indeed. Thanks for asking this. So that makes two reviews reporting flirt between Vetra and Scott. Source

I think everyone should be able to speculate, rant a bit or complain here, as long as it's not an attack on other members, or if it respects the moderation rules.
Beyond that... Live and let live.

Though I'm having doubts wether he meant a one sided flirt or a romantic moment shared between the two characters...

Don't know if it has been posted here yet, but Ash from MEOdyssey got to play the game and answered the following question in the comments below his preview video. User"I guess they didn't let yout test this but any words on who is romanceble and by which gender?" MEOdyssey"I had a romance moment with me (Scott Ryder) and Vetra, but that was as close as I got, lol!" video link: Great : D Thanks for looking into it!

Vetra seems like an experienced and well balanced character. Some articles mention a warm character but also the strict mother-hen type.
She sounds like a really grounded one, and I like that a lot.

Right, thank you. And what did he say about Vetra? Vetra is bi. I'm hoping that this in particular is true, and it seems more likely now considering that, otherwise, Peebee would be the ONLY LGBT squadmember. Fingers crossed. Damn.
