Sooo cute. Drunk Tali and Shepard are just adorable xD

[fans self]

Too cute.

Awww, cute.

Simply lovely! The gentle teasing and the final admissions were just perfect. Thank you for sharing!

Okay, I snorted at this:
"Tomorrow, I am going to go buy myself some bright pink vibrating thingamajig with eighteen speed settings that is ribbed for my pleasure and then there will be no need for men."

I know she's angry, but I couldn't help but laugh XD

But oh! This chapter was so adorable! And full of all the warm fuzzies you always manage to inspire. Yet, in typical awesome Suilven fashion, it was a perfect blend of adorable romance and hot passion. Man, I absolutely loved it!

I'm just going to gather this story up in my arms and go into a corner to cuddle it, thanks. From the adorableness of Garrus playing designated driver/babysitter for Plastered!Tali & Shep, to everyone's cris de coeur "what's wrong with me?" to the sheer passion you always write so incredibly - just every syllable so much to love here.

*croons happily over story*

So sweet! I love this side of them, and this take on Shepard's romantic escapades.

I just love seeing drunk!Shepard here. With all the weight on her shoulders, it's no surprise that she occasionally (or more often) decides to get drunk just to escape from everything. Of course, man troubles on top of that minor skirmish with the Reapers and the Illusive Man just drives her right to the edge (*snort*). I also love drunk!Tali... I picture here as giggly and scatterbrained when she's had too much to drink. It's a good thing Garrus is there to babysit... I mean, chaperone. :p

The biotics might have helped Shepard process the booze quicker, but she was still "loose" enough to spill her real feelings to Garrus despite what she overhead (and I can't blame Garrus for saying what he did to Kelly). It was a good thing that Shepard got smashed; she and Garrus might not have discovered their mutual feelings if she hadn't.

Nope, there won't be much sleep for either of them this night. They'll have to get the stimulants out in the morning, methinks. Caffeine... lots and lots of caffeine. :p I just loved this whole piece... fun, bittersweet, and hysterical all in one place. Awesome!

"Heyyyy, you came back!"

"Of course I came back. Don't I always?" He held out a hand to her, which took her several tries before she managed to grasp it in her own and he hauled her to her feet.

Aww! You capture Shepard and Garrus like no other! This had everything too, sweetness, angst, romance, hotness, anger, dejection...everything, and you did it all so seamlessly and with so few words. Just lovely.

"Heyyyy, you came back!"
"Of course I came back. Don't I always?" He held out a hand to her, which took her several tries before she managed to grasp it in her own and he hauled her to her feet.
"You do." She kept her hand in his. "You always do." - Awww! This is so true for their entire relationship, even when you don't romance him.

This was such a lovely story! Drunk Shepard was a lot of fun. She made me laugh! And then, as the alcohol wore off things got real, so intense and sexy, too! So many different emotions you worked with here and you managed to balance them perfectly.

I'm so glad you're writing again! This was a great come back! And you didn't have to thank me. I didn't do anything and I'm forever in your debt for all your help with IML. Plus, I love talking to you and it's a pleasure to discuss your awesome plot ideas.

Hugs!

You are the queen of Shakarian. Truly. Off her nut Shepard is adorable and so if Garrus; the perfect non-man. Tch, anyone could have told Shepard looking outside her species would have been less trouble all round. Luckily for us however, she had to find her way, otherwise we wouldn't have this wonderful story.

Go you!

I loved drunken Shepard, she was so cute. And everything she said about Kaidan and Jacob was spot on!

Then the surprise: Garrus is sitting there the whole time, LOL.

"Don't be silly, Garrush," Shepard slurred, wrapping an arm around his shoulders and dragging him into her side with a hard tug. "You don't count."

"Wow, thanks." He gave a dry hum of amusement.

LOL, poor Garrus. :D

I also laughed at this:

"Hmmm?" Shepard swayed against him. "Oh. Yeah. 'M totally fine." Her words were careful and deliberate, as though she was trying too hard to pronounce each one clearly. "You take Tali. I'll just go… this way." She released her hold on him and promptly walked straight into the inner doors that hadn't yet opened. "Ow! Son of a—who put these here?"

At that, the doors slid open, and Shepard hit the deck, face first, landing on the floor with a loud thud.

She didn't move.

Garrus bit back a laugh, trying to keep his mandibles from flaring and failing. "That would be a 'no' then."

"My facesh hurtsh."

"I'd imagine it does."

And then their love-making: so sweet, so hot, so tender. I loved it!

This line was beautiful:

He was drowning in her, drinking her in as his parched heart wept with the unspoken words that he had never even dared to whisper within the recesses of his own mind.

The whole thing was just beautiful. :)

This was awesome! That hot, sweaty, desperate sex is my favorite kind. :)

She reminds me so much of myself when she gets all flustered trying to explain herself:

"Shepard buried her face in his shoulder. "Can I die now? Can we blame this on those flaming ryncol shooters and forget this ever happened?"

The descriptions were top-notch, and the language waxed all poetic and gorgeous. Great job, I really liked this!

Nice! Great read! :)
