tidbits
romantic traits:
he is the little spoon (and the bottom).
his love language is touch, but he doesn’t initiate physical contact often.
he’s clingy, but not overbearing.
he’s a bit dense. not to the extent that it makes him seem stupid, but enough to cause unnecessary pining.
he’s rather inexperienced; growing up on the streets had him too occupied with surviving, and by the time he’d hit adulthood, he joined the alliance. this became his sole purpose and he didn’t have much interest in pursuing romantic relationships.
disposition-related traits:
in me1, he seeks diplomatic solutions to problems, only resorting to violence when unavoidable. he often tries to avoid pursuing revenge or anything similar, but this is slightly shaken when he meets toombs & wayne. he convinces toombs to let wayne be arrested rather than killed solely because he does not want toombs to become wrapped up in chasing closure through killing just as he has.
 in me2, he still tries to be a good person, but his patience with those who become his enemies is rather thin. he doesn’t hesitate to threaten/intimidate his enemies, but he also tries to help civilians and similar people. as he’s very on edge given that he’s been forced to work with the same people that slaughtered his entire unit on akuze, he’s quick to defend himself and his allies. he will pursue those who threaten him or those he cares for because he doesn’t want to risk their lives regardless of cost; he feels largely at fault for the destruction of the normandy sr1, and this causes an obsession with eliminating potential threats.
in me3, he shoots first and asks questions later. he doesn’t accept any risks to himself and his crew. the invasion of the reapers despite his warnings has caused him to fall into a constant state of anxiety; these are the same entities he’s had nightmares about for years. he’s distrustful, brutal, and protective, but not evil. this is an important point, as a lot of his inner turmoil centers around his growing anger and worsening violent tendencies. he tries his best to protect the innocent, but acknowledges the occasional need for sacrifice. he will make these sacrifices if it eliminates something he perceives as a threat. this is, again, mainly a trait of post-traumatic stress disorder.
misc. traits:
due to being biotic, he eats a ton of food, and often steals the leftovers of his crew. this is something they learn the hard way; they either finish their food in one sitting, or they get their leftovers stolen by their Feral Biotic Commander™️.
he really, really enjoys tending to the fish tank in his cabin. it’s therapeutic for him. 
collecting model ships becomes a special interest hobby after his two-year coma. he enjoys setting up their displays and learning about various ships.
he has trust issues—but not towards other people. he distrusts himself and his ability to protect his crew.
he falls for kaidan in me1 but doesn’t ever confess his feelings on account of alliance regulations (and the fear of rejection). in me2, he pines for him, but the encounter on horizon causes a rift between them. in me3, he tries constantly to prove himself to kaidan, yearning for the trust he’d placed in him so many years ago.
there’s more, but it’s 4am and i can’t think straight anymore. plus this is also like a huge fucking wall of text already. so enjoy 👍

About the Blog ~
>> Commissions are currently closed.
Hey there!
I’m Scotty, a queer writer and artist from the UK.
My primary fandoms that I write for are Mass Effect, Assassin’s Creed II / Brotherhood / Revelations / Odyssey and Star Wars: The Clone Wars, however I do also dip my toes into Dragon Age, other Assassin’s Creed titles, Final Fantasy XV, RWBY, Thunderbirds Are Go (2015 reboot), Doctor Who (and its various spin-offs) and Sonic the Hedgehog.
Most of my fanart revolves around my various iterations of Commander Shepard and Pathfinder Ryder (Mass Effect trilogy / Mass Effect Andromeda) and my Inquisitors (Dragon Age Inquisition).
This blog contains/discusses 18+ & NSFW content.
Feel free to follow / ask / message / chill here if:
You enjoy people holding up blorbos like they’re comparing different paint swatches in a hardware store
You want to chat about particular fandoms/pairings that are listed below
You want to know more about me – send me ask/tag games! I love games!
Move on if:
You’re a TERF, paedophile, or promote bigotry of any sort (queerphobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, fascist, anti-choice, zionist, etc.)
You’re under the age of 18 (if you do not have your age in your blog bio or somewhere I can find it, you will be blocked, I am not interested in interacting with minors)
You’re just a troll or an asshole
I’m always happy to receive writing prompts and ideas, but there’s no guarantee if/when I’ll fill it, as I have to be in The Zone for the creative juices to flow properly. So if you do send something but don’t see a response, I haven’t forgotten! I just need to be in the right space for it.
