While I, personally, will likely never think about romancing Liara, I think think she is one of the only romance options who are fully dedicated to the relationship. It's very endearing. The lengths she was willing to go just for Shepard and the fact that she never once thought of anyone else made the whole romance more special.
Looking back now, I see that Shepard was probably her whole world. Her mother is dead, she has no other known family and she seems to be lacking any notable friendship beyond the Normandy crew, it's really bittersweet. Knowing that Shepard died fighting against the Reapers kills my heart when I think about that idea, because now what does she have? Only memories. And she knew - she knew what was going to happen.
Even if you don't romance her she still seems very emotionally, possibly even romantically attached to Shepard. Her kindness, innocence, intelligence and dedication are what made her the perfect character. Additionally, the fact that she developed in a realistic way in accordance to events, that is just one other thing that makes her character so great and realistic. I think Liara would feel that way in such a situation, but I don't think that's really the case. I think especially in a romance, the other members of the Normandy, both past and present, would be there for her, even if just out of respect for Shepard. Like, I would imagine Garrus, Wrex, Tali and the VS would definitely stay close to her.
Well certainly, banter between crew members in the third game was evidence of that, Garrus and Liara had good bonding sessions and she was there for him in case he needed to talk, and vice versa. When her home planet of Thessia was taken by Reapers, I think it was Garrus who was reaching out and letting her know that she wasn't alone. I was speaking on a more romantic level, of course. But you're also right.

I don't know, I feel like Garrus and Tali both have a certain snarkier side to each other that I think compliments them well. I think if I was going to put Liara with any of the other Normandy crew, it would be Samantha, or maybe even Wrex.

They're very similar in outlook, both are biotics, the two were close (comes up in ME3 if Kaidan is killed during the coup), and Kaidan will tell MaleShep that he finds her attractive in ME1. Those two being paired if neither is seeing Shepard, would certainly make more sense than the Tali & Garrus pairing, which really come out of nowhere. Tali & Garrus didn't even get along in ME1.

Well, the problem with that is that in my game Kaidan is nothing but atoms floating around in Vermire, so... Plus, the two got pretty snarky/flirty even as early as ME2, so...I dunno, it just worked for me. It took a while for them to click between Tali's hero worship/crush on Shepard and Garrus being just generally awful around women at first, but it happened.

I feel that Wrex and Garrus have more chemistry than Tali and Garrus. Ha Well, really... nothing weird about that.

I actually hadn't thought about that pairing before, but now I do.. adorbs. Even just Traynor working as one of Liara's close agents, she'd be right into that kind of work. Specialist couple.

If I had to pair anyone with anyone, the romance between Garus, and Tali makes the most sense to me. When I first walked in on them making out, my only thought was 'finally!'. Seems like the two of them have been flirting with each other since 2.
Liara and anyone, I'm not really sure. Traynor seems like she might be a good match, but she doesn't have the history that the old crew has. Kaiden might be a good match, but I've never seen him in 2 or 3. So I have no idea what happens to his character.
If ash had any interest in the ladies, she might be a good fit too.

Totally unrelated, but I always wished Liara could use shotguns. Imagine how much more badass would she be if she could run around with High Lord(aka, M-300 Claymore).
An engineer Shepard and Liara, both using Claymores... hot damn!

Okay hands up!Who here is going to romance PeeBee? I am Shepard has Liara Ryder has PeeBee Don't know, know nothing much about any of the cast in ME:A, been avoiding threads/vids about it. I know it will be a family affair kinda thing, Brother/Sister/Dad N7. Still gonna wait to see how my pals got on with it first before I'll pick it up. Still have other games to finish up first, I can wait. Currently in the middle of a Broshep ME2 renegade run, feels easier this way to avoid romancing Liara for me. If I made another Femshep I would just fail at attempting anyone else lol. Enjoy seeing a different side to Liara as friends only, I mainly play Femshep so I never see this. sauce

JayKay just personal preference on my end. Prefer playing as femshep, always pair her with Liara when I do. ![=]](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/yNrAXjkTcPPBLrsOOiCC.png) My Brosheps tend to branch out more, still have to get around to a Tali run at some point.

I am Shepard has Liara Ryder has PeeBee I'd be up for it - but with all of the Liara hate, sexy blue space babes accusations and whatnot, I wouldn't be terribly surprised if she turns out to be not an LI. I don't know, I feel like Garrus and Tali both have a certain snarkier side to each other that I think compliments them well. I think if I was going to put Liara with any of the other Normandy crew, it would be Samantha, or maybe even Wrex. I'd go with Kaidan. They're very similar in outlook, both are biotics, the two were close (comes up in ME3 if Kaidan is killed during the coup), and Kaidan will tell MaleShep that he finds her attractive in ME1. Those two being paired if neither is seeing Shepard, would certainly make more sense than the Tali & Garrus pairing, which really come out of nowhere. Tali & Garrus didn't even get along in ME1. I don't remember any hostility between Tali & Garrus in ME1. Could you refresh my memory? I think it worked for them to get together in ME3 - the dextro couple, Fleet & Flotilla, etc. With the galaxy facing annihilation, people sometimes reach out to the familiar for comfort, and these 2 have known each other and worked together for quite awhile. Both of them had been placed in positions of enormous responsibility that they weren't entirely comfortable with - Tali as an Admiral, Garrus an advisor. I don't really see them together permanently, but it works for me as a short-term fling. As an aside, I had shipped Tali with Kal'Reegar, and was really bummed to find out he'd been killed. I could see them raising a family as they rebuild and populate Rannoch... ... not that it does much good to think about what became of the characters post-apocalypse. Seeing all of these home planets be decimated by reapers throughout ME3 wasn't grim-dark enough, they also had to kill off some characters we liked and leave the relays damaged, so everything was left in limbo. Bleah.

Bleah. I don't think there's enough casual or even hardcore backlash against Liara that would make it so PeeBee won't be an LI--like in past games, you're going to have your romances with your regular humans, your romances with aliens that are completely foreign, and you're going to have the ones that are sort of in the middle, where they appear alien, but are still conventionally attractive, to satisfy the "Captain Kirk" thing people who try these games expect. I'm sure PeeBee will have her own strengths, quirks and subversions so it won't be so standard, but having it so you can have some sort of relationship with an asari has been in every game, and I don't expect that to change. And yeah, Garrus and Tali had a little hostility, but no more so than pretty much everyone else in the elevator conversations. Combine that with the minor flirtation in ME2 and the lead up in 3, I thought it worked perfectly. I could see it lasting as more than a fling even--sure, they talk it up as such, but next thing they know it's two years later and neither of them really want to stop.

Even if they are definitely doing an asari LI, it might not be PeeBee - though it may be likely that it is. I've already seen her called PeePee and PeeWee. Gad.

By an absolute mile my favourite Waifu out of everything, certainly consider her what a perfect lover would be. I have an absolute blast playing through the games with her as the romance, playing MaleShep. Her dedication to the relationship and overall personality is sweet, caring and beautiful, not to mention how she looks. Glad I found some place with folks who share my enthusiasm!
