Hey Miranda fans, just dropping in to ask a quick question about the kiss scene. Mainly what I wanted to ask is, do most of you guys(and gals) prefer it around here to the other dialogue? I kinda think it's inappropriate if you let her go on about only being able to take credit for her mistakes and then saying it, the first time the line shows up seems much more appropriate for a little harmless teasing.
For me it's a very hard decision. I like the kiss and the teasing, but you don't get to say "You give your father too much credit. Yeah, he gave you gifts, but you can be proud of what you've done with them." I usually go for the kiss because it's easier to imagine Shepard saying the other thing some time when I'm not watching.
On the other hand, if you don't go for the kiss, you get the "admire your body" lines, which some see as only sex driven but Shep does say "I can't admire your body or your mind?". So it has that going for it I guess.
I don't like that line. What it's meant to convey is very much OK, I'd like to say something to that effect, but the phrasing is cheesy. Another reason to go for the Renegade path.
The main reason I dropped by to ask is to form my own conclusion for my current canon Shep who may be romancing Miranda, and I want to avoid the romance seeming like a fling. So I definetly won't be taking the "Love?" line, even though I know it was a joke to lighten the mood, and I'll be choosing the hug dialogue. So all that's really left is this scene. I'm strongly leaning towards the kiss scene, but outside opinions are always nice.
My preferred path is
*"You're jealous"
*[Kiss her]
in conversation 3 and
*Who said anything about love?
*No promises
in conversation 4. Full Renegade, so to speak. Sometimes I choose "It doesn't matter. What matters is how we feel." instead of "Who said anything about love?" because I want to be more serious, but I don't like that line because it conveys that what you feel is all that matters. Which for Miranda, is definitely not true and neither is it for Shepard.
