Tartarus could also be simply a hint to the fact that it's situated in the ass-end of Kadara. On the other hand, I don't exactly know why but the Anubis thing always catches my eye. Foreboding, to say the least... Fun fact: Tartarus is also a deity and one of his sisters is Nyx. So Vetra, whaddaya say? Ha, a few days ago I read a story where Zia faked her death in her mission and Reyes, who was in on it, helped her escape after Ryder left. Like a pro. Haa, the King under the Mountain. This makes me think of classic fairy tales where the son of a Mountain King or a Crown Prince from underneath the Ocean comes and entices some simple shepherdess to follow them to their kingdom, where they eat a food and are trapped ~forever~. I’m now imagining Reyes drawn in John Bayer’s style. :heh: Hehe, and we're trapped in Reyes land. Whoa, that picture! Indeed. Ryder could have joined him, too. Just saying. Their parents met in Brazil (Rio). Yes, Scott says he played laser tag with the alien kids on the Citadel and mentions he was afraid of them first. Why would he be though, if he was born there, wouldn't he be used to them? Maybe first meeting. Yet, the codex says born on the Citadel, the Jaal convo Earth. She's a bit bitchy, though. Aww, I'm sure they look alright. Don't have to be supermodels. I'm in a holiday mood now from thinking of the geysers and that picture. Greetings from Kadara: Source

My Fic has roughly 60 pages going for it rn... I blame my apparent obsession with dialogue and Reyder. :/

60 pages, oy. And how much percentage-wise is done? It's a good obsession though.

60 pages! I feel like there's a joke there somewhere, about Suvi and dirt. Good for you! I measure more in terms of words these days when I write fic. How many are you at? I've decided it's high time I share some of my favorite Reyes screenies. I'm on Xbox One, so the quality isn't mind-blowing, and my Sara is unmodded so forgive her and me, as she's kind of grown on me. I mainly use subtitles so I can tell when SAM is using our private channel, but I like what they add to that last one. Would have posted some with Scott (who I keep default), but I only go after Gil with him, so.

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I’ve taken much less screenshots since my ReShade install shat itself and I proved too dumb to fix it, but Kadara is good as is. The low clouds and verticality of the terrain make for great shots. I recommend everyone to drive the car to the ledges about half way up to the Port. The view is great. Yes, Scott says he played laser tag with the alien kids on the Citadel and mentions he was afraid of them first. Why would he be though, if he was born there, wouldn't he be used to them? Maybe first meeting. Yet, the codex says born on the Citadel, the Jaal convo Earth. Yeah unless Ellen & Alec put them in segregated day care, it sounds like Codex writers got it wrong and they’re Earth kids. Or maybe, since Alec programmed SAM (the Codex author) and since he’s the Worst Dad, he didn’t even remember where the kids were born and unwittingly gave SAM bad info. They're fine, but see the deal is, the best looking preset is the Reyes preset (quelle surprise) – so you can’t use it if you’re going to romance him. I’ve tried to avoid too pretty looking Ryders, though, because that’s not right either. Ah, an elusive m!Ryder/Reyes fanart. Much appreciated! Actually I don’t know if Scott/Reyes art is rare, I haven’t looked for it. Last time I searched tumblr for fan stuff of a thing, my brain was seared by abominations (not to mention oceans of twee as fuck OOC content), so I don’t dare anymore. Getting tasteful, curated samples via this thread is much preferable. I've decided it's high time I share some of my favorite Reyes screenies. I'm on Xbox One, so the quality isn't mind-blowing, and my Sara is unmodded so forgive her and me, as she's kind of grown on me. I mainly use subtitles so I can tell when SAM is using our private channel, but I like what they add to that last one. Would have posted some with Scott (who I keep default), but I only go after Gil with him, so. Ah good! it's fun to see other people's versions. Your Sara is so pretty. Reyes at Meridian always makes me crack up. He’s just beaming like the midday sun. I’ve probably posted my first Ryder in this thread before, a fight scene of him and Reyes firing at some poor soul at point blank. My current Ryder is one that mysteriously looks better in action rather than stills, unlike every other Ryder I’ve made previously. I’m taking that as a good sign. Reyes and Ryder Anyone else have cute couples pics of their Ryder + Reyes? Let’s have ‘em.

60 pages, oy. And how much percentage-wise is done? It's a good obsession though. For sure! I am probably 45% done. I have felt the calling to turn the simple fic to a multi perspective, backstory revealing, slight canon divergence after game storyline with an implied ship that begins to grow as the storyline progresses. Even I'm sick of my shit. Haha The pages sounds like a lot, but I'm about eleven chapters in. I think it will end at around 20, but I've been way off before lol. I'm currently on a lunch break (not long enough to get in the writing zone) and I'm anxious to go back home to continue. I've been writing every day now and it's been really great!

Or maybe, since Alec programmed SAM (the Codex author) and since he’s the Worst Dad, he didn’t even remember where the kids were born and unwittingly gave SAM bad info. Lol and the kids don't care enough to tell him to correct it. They could fix the codex quickly, but no. I guess it's too unimportant or they haven't even noticed it. My first Sara's bro has his preset. It's okay but I can see some Reyes in him. It's good we can change the complexion now, helps a bit with differentiation and some faces look really better with another one. I'd say there is less than with Sara. My perception at least. tehprincessj Your Sara looks like a nice girl, no mods required. And the storage room, they really have to visit one again. orchid Your Ryder looks like a charming guy. Reyes seems very fond of him already. Oh, are they trying to hold hands in the second picture?^^ I like how Reyes' face at the bar changes, shortly wondering who's using his line and then smiling slightly. So screenshots, a lot are living on my HDD lol. His sweetheart hasn't arrived yet but this is his friend Sara. They like to meet up in the bar. And take out dangerous groups together. Sometimes he's a bit late to the party. Once he got them into trouble and they had to hide. Some evenings they enjoy thoughtful conversations high above Kadara. starlord Sounds good . Have a nice day then and fun with the writing.

Would have posted some with Scott (who I keep default), but I only go after Gil with him, so. About 17,000 words, not much, but not bad either. Surprisingly enough, I'm currently doing a chapter that follows Peebee after an attack on the Nexus. My Ryder gives Peebee a lot of space, I like her, but she's the Liara of Andromeda IMO. (AKA the character I like fine, but prefer others) and so far, she's surprising me by being rather pleasant with an easy narrative voice. She's kind of forced to be with Lexi 24/7 for plot reasons and the sass between them is fucking lethal.

I actually wouldn't mind him being involved in more serious missions, but after the options the base game leaves you, I wouldn't be surprised if he was always some sort of minor antagonist or something. It'd sure piss off the Vidalites, but I'd probably enjoy myself the whole way through. Especially if I can shoot him between the eyes O:)

Orchid, I love your "you look like you're waiting for someone - that's my line" gif! And thank you for being nice to my Sara. You're my favorite person, now. Thanks! Your Sara’s preset is probably my favorite, it makes for very expressive and beautiful Ryders. If you haven’t, you should post her in the Post your Ryders thread. orchid Your Ryder looks like a charming guy. Reyes seems very fond of him already. Oh, are they trying to hold hands in the second picture?^^ I like how Reyes' face at the bar changes, shortly wondering who's using his line and then smiling slightly. So screenshots, a lot are living on my HDD lol. His sweetheart hasn't arrived yet but this is his friend Sara. They like to meet up in the bar. And take out dangerous groups together. Sometimes he's a bit late to the party. Once he got them into trouble and they had to hide. Some evenings they enjoy thoughtful conversations high above Kadara. Thank you. They’re just accidentally clipping gently brushing the backs of their hands together. It’s not a good screenshot, but I liked how that looked. That whole bar scene was what really sold me on the romance. The flirting, Umi falling into despair, Ryder getting jealous or Reyes telling how delicate he is (too bad you can’t get both dialogue options)... What I didn’t notice previously before making this gif, at the start Reyes is looking behind him, but then quickly turns his head back all nonchalantly. And then Ryder’s comment gets through and he can’t help but break into that smile. Reyes’ facial animations IMO have always been really good, this smile and the wink. Nice screens, your Sara looks a lot like Ellen. Was that intentional? I’ve never seen that hiding option before (and never will lol), thanks for posting.

I can't understand this endless obsession with romances. Reyes works as a character perfectly well even without the romance. From what I’ve seen, the Kadara main quest is considered good by a lot of people that never romanced him. It seems to me he was written first for his plot related role, the romance stuff second. I could be wrong, but he doesn’t feel like he only exists to be Ryder’s boyfriend. This is also an added benefit; a non-saccharine LI that’s not Ryder’s underling (no uncomfortable power imbalance) and has his own life. I actually wouldn't mind him being involved in more serious missions, but after the options the base game leaves you, I wouldn't be surprised if he was always some sort of minor antagonist or something. It'd sure piss off the Vidalites, but I'd probably enjoy myself the whole way through. Especially if I can shoot him between the eyes O:) Yeah, x’ing over one of the M/M options would sure be a real genius move from BioWare. It’s not like they’ve received any criticism on this topic, at all. I bet people with a straight Sara Ryder would absolutely love a repeat of the ME3 Jacob treatment, too.

I'd say it'd be more like a minor version of Solas (or Qun-loyal Bull) than Jacob. With Jacob, it was just some lame thing where he suddenly shows up 6 months later with a knocked up girlfriend. At least here it'd be an actual story where something meaningful happens, and of course, it'd probably have options on how to resolve it.

Why, then Reyes fans probably wouldn't be "pissed off", now would we? I think everyone that romanced him would love more content with similar choices as we've already gotten with him in MEA.
