Per TRS Good People Have Good Sex is now a disambig page.


* GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex: Almost any mention of sex outside the main couple is usually either rape (Shepard was lured into a statutory-rape situation with Ghost/[[spoiler: Kai Leng]] and later was flat-out raped by a rival gang when she was young), sex based mainly on lust (Garrus with all of his previous girlfriends), or to take advantages of something (Aria's favorite method to gain control and information). But all love-making scenes of Garrus and Shepard are always written in an incredible loving fashion to describe their love and passion for each other whether they are playing rough or gentle.



* SecondLove: [[spoiler: Garrus.]]

This or these examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.


* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Do you really think that Miranda would let Shepard give out Cerberus's information to Jack that easily? Think again.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: Shepard in [[Franchise/MassEffect canon]] can have some sighs of this trope, but in this story, it turned UpToEleven.

misuse; does not fit trope description


* BadDreams: Shepard had a dream where Garrus tied her up and interrogated her of her secrets (namely, her past and her attraction to him). The raw sexuality and domineering nature of the Shadow-Garrus she dreamed of, according to WordOfGod, was symbolic of her sexual frustration concerning her feelings for him.
** After Shepard died, Garrus suffered from [[TheInsomniac insomania]] due to several bad dreams about her past (including her [[ElectricTorture treatment]] at the orphanage, her escape with Ghost, and her time with the Reds until her rape) that he got from Liara.
