NOTHING LEFT TO DO BUT DANCE


sometimes i draw things, and sometimes they might be kind of okay, but don't count on it.

currently it's mostly mspaintadventures fanart where i go by sock/sockpuppy and also maybe original characters thrown in the mix, because i have some of those.


i read all asks but i am very slow at answering them. if you want to talk add sock.puppy on skype, i am always online!

ask me questions ask me ask me ask me

apparently the ask box is kinda crap now

lmao god i am not good at romance in video games

stoicsilence said: who did you romance? i did miranda because she was hitting on me, but i ended up longing for tali or samara.

my romantic life in mass effect is a sad tale of thickheadedness and missed opportunities.

in me1 i just wanted to learn about biotic implants. that’s all i wanted out of what i believed to be a completely professional relationship with kaidan. at no point did i think to myself, yes this is the character i want to bang, i just thought i was being nice. I THOUGHT WE WERE BROS. I THOUGHT WE WERE BROS RIGHT UP TO THE POINT IN THE ROMANCE SCENE WHERE HE AND SHEPARD START MACKING ON EACH OTHER. unfortunately i hadn’t saved in a while and didn’t want to redo the bit before that scene (i don’t remember what it was anymore) so i sucked it up and accepted it. there weren’t any better options anyway so i might as well stick with it.

then me2 and better options came along. but i’m… terminally monogamous. the prospect going after another character i liked better when i hadn’t REALLY broken up with kaidan would be… unfaithful. and rude. and would make me feel guilty. even if i the player thought kaidan was lackluster and i was lukewarm for him at the best of times, obviously commander shepard did not agree with me and i uh, didn’t want to damage anything more than it already had been. so i waffled my way through character interactions halfway hoping i would get a surprise romance scene with somebody i actually liked, but unwilling to overtly hit on anyone. i WAS angling for garrus, really hard for garrus (in the most wishy washy way possible), but i fucked it up because he asked me if i wanted to go down to the deserted lower hangar and engage in some friendly WRESTLIN and the implications went right over my head, so i unknowlingly friendzoned him. i also panicked with thane and shut him down by accident. THAT IS MY STORY

tbh if orientation hadn’t been a deciding factor in me2 i probably would have gone for miranda and not felt bad about it. she and paragon shepard might have made a good match?? i like garrus best out of all possible options but i think he would probably be better with a neutral or renegade shepard. though i actually didn’t know samara was an option! i thought she was celibate as part of her wandering space samurai vows/she was unwilling to have another relationship after her wife died and her daughters turned out to be ardat-yakshi.
