How is it that I always manage to derail a thread into talking about Legion without actually trying to?

EDIT: Well, this is awkward.

nicely done! I love how they did the eyes. that purpleish warp ammo glow.

It's nice to see you care so much about frivolous internet wars. Didn't know you cared.

I have had plenty of experiences with trivial incidents online turning into big drawn out jerkings. I would hate to see it happen again.

Good, not that we particularly like reading about pain, but dark tragedies do have a certain appeal, particularly when written well enough to allow you to get inside the thoughts of the main character, and to know the horror and pain firsthand.

Most pain and torture fics are just that, about the pain and torture. Jones and I needed those things to break down Xen's character, but it's not what's important. How it's affecting her is what matters. What it does to her, how it changes her, is the entire point of the fic. How it turns her into an extremist leader who wants to enslave an entire race. Glad you approve.

Then again, what you said about about "one of the romances" when I asked was pretty funny (though I realize that was the intent).

I make fun of all the characters from time to time. Wouldn't it strike you as odd if I only ever made jabs at characters I actually liked?

We approve of great writing and how it can draw anyone into something most would rather not think about. A story of torture is horrid. A story about the person being tortured has the potential for greatness.

Tali: *Last piece of suit hits the floor* ...Take me Shepard!

Spat: M-m-m-momma sa-m-m-momma

No way. Shepard isn't taking Tali.

Tali is taking Shepard.

Awwwww, yeah!

*After Omega 4 relay is done and over with*

Spat: Damn! Can't believe I did it! Everyone's alive, blew up the damn base, gave TIM the middle finger... God, I'm such a badass! ...Now what do I do? Hmmm...

You know what makes me mad? Fics that leave Legion out or kill him just because the writer is too much of a pansy to try and actually write him into the story.



Grrr

Han'Gerrel, I believe. I also think that telling the admirals privately is better than telling the public immensely.

What do you expect the admirals to do about it?

It's not so much what I expect them to do. It's that it's their right to decide, in my opinion.
That said, I think not revealing the evidence completely is the better choice morally and logically. Of course, anyone who disagrees (short of just trying to malicious) is equally as valid.

I would have used to to both warn them what going to far does, and for them to atleast salavge the data in case the worst does happen. I would then push for the making peace option. Since the geth are clearly oprn to honest peace talks and they've been rebuilding the hoomeworld for the return to the creators.

Don't worry, Legion will have a huge part in my fic, it's my take on the war. However the surviors are.

1: Miri
2: Anderson
3: Ash
4: Grunt
5: ???
6: ???
7: ???

The last three I won't reveal.

I left him out of Grand Escapades because I...legitimately forgot about him.  And compared to Grunt and Mordin, I don't think he could make nearly as many funny lines.  He'll show up in a cameo later.

We approve, but don't let the quality of the writing falter for the sake of self-imposed deadlines, a late epic chapter is better than an on-time meh chapter.

Giving base to cerberus = Bad move, giving a terrorist organization sentient technology? Derp.

It's the facts of life gentlemen. Be an ass hole, you get an ass holes pay. 

I know this has been the source of endless debates on other threads, but I kept the base with the reasoning it's too valuable of a resource to just throw away... but afterwords I really, really wanted to see some options that let Shepard spread the reaper know-how around.

"Say, Tali, Legion, Mordin, Garrus, Samara... I've got this important data I need backed up. Why don't you send off a copy to your respective species for safe keeping..."

Sometimes the either/or choices in the game aren't enough to reflect what would really be the sensible path to take.

[Kikaimegami]

I'd totally have saved the Collector base if I could have picked who I gave it to.
