Garrus Vakarian || From Enemy to Lover

Ah, yes. Garrus Vakarian. The turian bad-boy who seems to "hate" you for being part of a group of mercenaries that he's been trying to track down for weeks now. But Garrus doesn't hate you, does he?


Every time you and Garrus meet, it always starts with him running into you by accident and ends with the both of you fleeing from the scene with some bad injuries.

Garrus later finds the courage to lie to his old friend Commander Shepard, telling her that he has a 'possible lead' on you, just to make up an excuse to see you again so he could apologize for falsely blaming you weeks ago.

Aboard the Normandy, Garrus mentally prepares himself for the apology of his life, whilst the Normandy travels to Earth. Is Garrus ready to confront you...or is this feeling holding him back? Is it confusion, or guilt perhaps? Or, maybe...just maybe...Garrus is falling in love. Falling in love with a human? At first, he considered you just another enemy of his, but now---it w
