It seems absolutely everyone is mad at the ME1 LI's, am I the only one who see's where theyre coming from?
Lets look at Ashley and Kaidan. They are loyal Alliance soldiers through and through and suddenly they hear their old love Shepard isnt dead. At first they were more than likely ecstatic about the fact that Shep is alive. Of course, they have no way of contacting a recently resurrected Shepard so they wait around and wait for Shep to contact them. They love Shep, and more than likely though that Shep felt the same way and would contact them asap. As time passed, they start to wonder why they havent heard from Shep. And then they get to the stage where they start to feel mad at Shep for not trying to get a hold of him/her, add this on to the fact that they also heard that Shepard is working with Cerberus. Cerberus people! The same organization that performed horrific experiments on a wide variety of people, society's,on top of that, theyre a known enemy of the Alliance, Council, and right about everyone else. Add all this together to the previously stated facts and they sure oughta be pissed off at Shepard. And once they first encounter him, those emotions comes out. This is understandable, IMO. Once Ashley/Kaidan has had a chance to cool off, they send you that apolegetic email stating hat they cant lose you again.
Whew, lets get on to Liara. If you have read the Redemption comics, you know that Liara went to Hell and back just to get Shepards body back, while I havent read the last issue, I am aware that Feron, her drell contact, lost his life to help Liara get Shep's body. If that doesn't earn her some brownie points with you, then I dont know what will. If Liara never did what she did, SHepard is still dead and the Collectors are never stopped and wham bam all us Humans are gone.(I understand this is purely speculation but come on, if Shep isnt alive, the Collectors are most likely going to succeed). Oh and thats not mentioning what the Reapers would do after the Collectors bring them enough specimens to finish off the human reaper. So, its safe to say that Liara has earned a large amount of brownie points at this point. Lets fast forward to the Liara/Shep reunion. You two share a kiss and she expresses happiness that you are alive. But, big shocker, she wont leave with you. Feron sacrificed his life to help Liara get Shep's body. Liara rightfully so wants to avenge his death. And because of Shep's wondeful timing, he/she shows up just as Liara is at the cusp of finding the Shadow Broker. Liara loves Shep, but she CANT leave to help him/her, not when she's this close to finding someone as powerful/evil/manipulative as the Shadow Broker. She wants to avenge Feron's death, if it wasnt for him, Liara never would have gotten Shep's body back. Am i the only person who understands why she didnt just up and leave everything she was doing?
Of course, these are just my opinions and im not trying to force them on anyone but i'd like your thoughts on this.
Thanks for listening and I apoligize for the wall of text
