the issue with me and having ocs is I will say things along the lines of "idk I think my characters are all pieces of myself" then I stop for .03 seconds and think about their issues and The Horrors™ I've put them through...

Thinking about Mass Effect, as you do, and how I'm kind of sad that the way it's been engraved in pop culture has more to do with the way internet reacted to it at the time than what the actual game is about. Yes sure, it's about romance (and not that much all things considered) and it's pulpy (but not solely because of hot lady aliens), but it's also intricate worldbuilding that touches on a lot of sharp ideas, and a complicated tug-of-war between a genuine and vulnerable belief in reconciliation and community VS post 9-11 US military propaganda and steadfast belief in heroic exceptionalism, and the melancholic yet energizing mood, and the daring narrative systems, and so so much more than the 'We'll Bang OKs" and the "There's No Shepard Without Vakarian" and the whole ME3 ending situation
It's all there, but I'm sad the impact of the series is often reduced to (what I think is) the least interesting parts of its sum

i fucking love the fact that mafuyu and shizuku do archery. also that means that they’re probably canonically strong in upper body, and the more i think about that the more i fuck with it like yes those two are absolutely the two characters to be strongest in upper body of the cast. have you seen their characters. maybe it’s because both their characters have themes of carrying heavy burdens, or just carrying everything in general. with shizuku’s past of being leader of her idol group, being perfect for the face of it all, and with mafuyu’s perfect responsible good girl act, always helping out, always carrying people’s troubles. wait. i’m off track

You get indicted for interfering in a presidential election. Where you have every right to do it.
You can not be surprised by the fools that follow this fool
